Forgive me for chopping up your quotes. It would be confusing to know which part of your post I was responding to if I didn't:


It's not the exact same concept, though. Every episode has its own plot, since the world resets every time. They have to rack their brains to think of a new story/concept every week...but there's no thinking required in having a film version for Book of Mormon. The story's already there, the characters are already there, the songs are already there...all that's really left to do is to make lines in the Broadway musical film-compatible.

I wouldn't call a screenwriter creative if he's just doing a film adaptation of a book's story. Replace book with musical and there you go.


I don't doubt they worked their ass off on this video game, and it's impressive they wrote a story for it. The problem is, they're not going to go down in history for making a video game. They'll be remembered for their movies, musicals and show.

I also have a personal bias against video games as I don't play them.


I'm sure the musical IS good, but if they wanted their work to be accessible to fans all over the world, why not just do the film, without the musical? Probably because Trey's always wanted to do a Broadway musical.

They did cost about 300 back in December 2011 when I was in the States and wanted to see it.

There's nothing wrong with branching out into other media, by the way. Team America was brilliant. But if they released "Team America: The Musical" on Broadway, or "Scott Tenorman Must Die: The Movie," I'd also call that lazy.


Yes, it is. I don't want to be complaining all the time. Sorry.

As I said to NeuroHeart, I do think crafting new episodes requires creativity. In their own words, they kill themselves to come up with new episodes.


Translation: they want to get super rich, so they'll oversee a bunch of projects but not really do anything (aka executive-producing).

Nothing wrong with wanting to be super rich...I just wish they'd come up with a new movie/idea entirely. Team America (a puppet movie) came outta nowhere...so did That's My Bush!.

Yeah, and I'm sure you act the same in real life. I bet you walk up to pedestrians on the sidewalk and tell them their mothers should have aborted them.

Due to the cloak of anonymity on this board, I am more honest than I am in real life. If I said the same things in real life, some moron (such as yourself) might punch me or something.


Here's the difference between my country and yours:

In the United States, people say something like that, and then proceed to actually shoot someone between the eyes (imbeciles like James Holmes who can readily purchase weapons).

In my country, people say something like that, and don't act out on it.

I cannot wait any longer for this!! Can anyone freeze me until the release date?? I tried to hide in my mothers freezer but she found me before I could freeze. And I know what your thinking, but just because it didnt work out for cartman, doesnt mean it wont work for me!

So it's now official. THQ got shat on in this economy. Now Ubisoft has TSoT. Man, f*ck Ubisoft and Uplay. I'm glad I'm getting it for the Xbox 360. At least they aren't as bad as EA.

On another note, I read somewhere that TSoT may not be released on March 2013.

Well, THQ had moved it back to April 30, but now that it's gone and Ubisoft has TSoT, the game probably won't be out until late September, to coincide with episode 1701.

Well, I for one am actually hoping that the now "April 30th" date is more of a definititve date. I mean, I was one that actually did say that this game could see an "August/September" release date....but I'm hopeful that after hoping this game would have been basically in my hands by now...that the minor move of about another month, is something more necessary for Ubisoft just to finally kink it and send it into our hands.

My FEAR though....is that this could give M&T more legal time to set up a case against THQ and Ubisoft and the date keeps getting pushed back due to Legal issues (not production) and now they try to stop getting the game out all together

We'll see.

Looks like THQ is still listing TSOT on its site, with a release date of...

January 1, 2014.

f*ck you, THQ! Ubisoft has the game now!

I wouldn't call this Development Hell, I'd call it Release Hell. The game seems to be chugging along fine in actual development. It might end up being completed but only unreleased.

Although I'm steamed they're pushing it back for the goddamn new season. Watch them push the Season 16 DVD back, too, and just starve us

Shame about the delay, but from what I've learned over the years, release dates can be a bit of a pain. Never can tell for sure what's going to affect it.

But April 30, huh? Damn!

Mkay

Ubisoft is going to give info on lot of games during PAX east, so maybe they will tell something about Stick of Truth too
