Animal Crossing becomes Movie

Quote:

The Sports Hoichi newspaper has reported that Jouji Shimura (Master Keaton, Shin Angyo Onshi, Hanada Shonen Shi) will direct an anime feature film adaptation of Nintendo's game franchise Doubutsu no Mori ("Animal Forest"), known in America as "Animal Crossing." The film is scheduled to open in Japanese theaters this December.

Okay....that's a bit strange. How will they handle the main character (who's basically supposed to be you)? Will they speak in japanese or the in-game language? How can you make a movie out of this?

Why can't they just do Zelda already?

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I'll be perfectly content as long as they show Savannah.



Sigh, I haven't visited my town in years.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Nintendo dropped the plans for a Zelda anime movie in favor of more Pokemon. The industry is already dead to me.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Meh.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Well, yeah, but it's also a theatrical film, so I was expecting a little more detail. Like shadows, for instance.

I was speaking idiomatically.
