It’s a weird time forvideo gameadaptations. In the last few weeks, it has emerged that former gaming titanUbisoft is fracturing into two separate entities, with the more valuable IP sheltered from looming bankruptcy liquidation. Unfortunately, that leaves the upcomingWatch Dogs,Beyond Good & Evil,Skull & Bones,Driver, andThe Divisionmovies/streaming series in the lurch. Marketing is sure to be tight even if all these finish production, as the company faces irate stockholders, multiple customer lawsuits, strikes, layoffs, and a toxic reputation that has seen it shed more than 90% of its stock price in six years....

A man calling himself Roman claims that he is from the year 2030 and that he has traveled back in time to warn Earth about an impending alien invasion. The video interview with Roman has since gone viral and many are wondering if it’s a poorly done fan film or real.

The film adaptation ofTom Clancy’s Without Remorsebears little resemblance to the source material. Michael B. Jordan is a ferocious protagonist who shreds baddies as a vengeance-seeking Navy Seal. But the classic character’s twenty-first century upgrade is nearly torpedoed by a preposterous plot. The tense and agonizing storyline from the novel is replaced by absurd geopolitical machinations. Slick action scenes, and the groundwork for a better sequel, save the film from being a huge disappointment....

Abrams have been out on the promotional tour over the past few weeks and have been talking a lot about certain decisions. While the final installment in the sequel trilogy is a box office success, it has also proven to be divisive amongst fans and critics, but that was to be expected....

The economics of the film industry is a broad, fascinating universe. From trying to figure out how the studio system works, to understanding the different dynamics of indie cinema, it’s a constantly evolving piece of machinery that simply goes faster than we think. Today, marketing a movie seems simple; releasing it, not so much.
