Thread: Netflix has announced a live action Gears of War film and an animated series
Looks like game adaptations are the new trend after all the super hero garbage.

Only decent thing I've seen come out of it so far was that LoL animated series of all things.

Horizon, TLoU, Uncharted, Sonic, Gears, Halo, Resident Evil, I won't watch any of it, it all looks like shit and I'm not interested at all.

Fuck me I can't say no to gears…. I know it will be horrible but I am stoked. Lots of lore brought in by the books that the games neglect. I am pretty sure the live action will be horrible but maybe we will get lucky in the animated series.

Cyberpunk anime was top tier as well. Almost as good as arcane.
 
So, mean tweets? Peace deals, a roaring economy, no wars, border security = distracted? WITH, the entire establishment trying to bring him down at every possible moment. Nope, don't buy it.

Bro it was worse than them making him gay. There was no indication of him being into dudes, he starts making out with the sister naked, and then her brother shows up outta nowhere all naked and glistening and he just shoves his dick into alucard's ass, no lube. He got straight up buttraped.
 
As someone who is not a Gears of War fan, by God please don't do live action. That plan for an animated series seems like the best course so give it to an independent animation studio that will do the IP justice. And it will give newbies a chance to see what the hype is all about with regards to the series.

Shit, just recently I was won over by two animated shows. I've never ever played League of Legends, yet I fucking loved Arcane.

And I've yet to play Cyberpunk 2077, but Edgerunners was a fantastic anime adaptation.

If Netflix plays their cards right (which I don't think they will), they could have another animated hit on their hands.

Edgerunners isn't an adaptation, it's an original story taking place in the same world as the game.

True, but Arcane strictly isn't an 1 for 1 adaptation either for LoL. They changed the lore regarding the Champions involved in the series to better fit the story. And I think it's all the more better for it.

For a Gears of War anime series to work, they need not be slavish to the game's canon, but still honor it in some way. Otherwise we'll get the abomination that is Netflix's Resident Evil.
