Call of Duty movie unlikely

4.7
Activision CEO Bobby Kotick has said that despite the campaign for Call of Duty being very cinematic, he has no interest in making the franchise into a movie.

Kotick has already turned down multiple requests from various studios that have offered to turn gamings biggest franchise into a movie. Kotick says movies based on video games rarely please devoted fans and could taint the brand.

Call of Duty makes up an estimated one-third of Activision’s more than $4 billion in annual revenue, so they certainly wouldn't want to do anything that could cause it harm.

Game-to-Movie adaptations have never worked very well, but if anyone knows of one that was actually good then please let us know.

So not true, no one wants to see a Call of Duty movie for it would be 2 hours of squeakers, over powered guns, spawn trapping, etc.
No one wants to see that


You do realize that the movie would be after the campaign(s), not the multiplayer, right?
-.-


Na most likely the multiplayer because people seem to like dumb games with shitty graphics and a 1990 engine


Whereas you like boardgames, with a design that is over 50 years old

I don't think if they made a movie I would watch it anyways, it wouldn't interest me so much to watch something like this in a movie.

TTG_Shnuff Guys, making a movie of this would ruin the franchise. No body would like it and people would make fun of the franchise.... So it's not worth it even if it is good


it does that on it's own. the only good thing about COD is zombies.
