Topic	Prediction: Next decade will see video game movies as the new big thing
scarletspeed7 03/10/20 12:46:33 PM #19:	turbopuns3 posted... Ok how about this: Video game movies are eventually gonna get super popular because video games are already super popular. Why are we splitting hairs as if 1940 vs 1950 makes any difference to the overall point. I really don't have any issue with the idea but no one with half a brain thinks video game movies aren't going to be popular and very successful. My issue is with a complete misunderstanding of history, and that's not splitting hairs. Saying that diminishes the value of understanding and appreciating the history of two different industries. 1940 and 1950 make a huge difference because one year is the peak of an industry and the other is near its nadir. If one person can be educated about an industry with a rich history and cultural impact, then it will likely inform them on a variety of subjects moving forward. Being wrong shouldn't be rewarded because it came to the right conclusion. --- "It is too easy being monsters.
