Gran Turismo movie out August 11th

 

[Orta]

What a stupid fucking idea

 

[Arsic]

What a stupid fucking idea

Why ? Some good casting. It's just a race car movie. Should do just fine lol.

 

[Imtjnotu]

What a stupid fucking idea

 

[RoboFu]

Days of thunder 2? Can they get Tom cruise?

 

[Guilty_AI]

 

[Bruno_Arrais85]

I'm in

 

[kyliethicc]

Love that they used shots (and sounds) that match the in game camera angles. Nice nod

 

[Hawking Radiation]

I'm in after just seeing David kick some ass as Santa.

 

[HTK]

This could actually end up alright.

 

[Unknown?]

This looks better than I ever expected. Could go either way but I never had hope, now it looks promising.

 

[NickFire]

Anyone know what it's actually about?

 

[Unknown?]

Anyone know what it's actually about?

Basically a kid becoming a real racer by training in GT but highly dramatized for movie purposes. Based on a true story too.

 

[fran.fernandez]

Anyone know what it's actually about?

After a boy break the world record of GT (PlayStation) it activate an alarm at the central headquarters, they bring the boy to drive a real car and save the earth from total destruction, of course he will be trained one more time with a high intelligent alien .
That's the main plot if I'm not wrong .

 

[//DEVIL//]

Yes. lets add some love and romantic relation in a racing movie based on a game that showed nothing of sort.

I just can't..

 

[VAVA Mk2]

Watch these Hollywood cucks change the gender/sexual preference of main characters for a game movie adaptation /s

 

[TLZ]

In for Legolas.

 

[FoxMcChief]

It better be about the menu scenario where I had to tune up my mini Cooper!

 

[hlm666]

Days of thunder 2? Can they get Tom cruise?

He's busy jumping dirt bikes, they can probably get stallone though.

 

[Deerock71]

That is pretty much exactly what I expected. They need the writers of Ford vs. Ferrari, Rush, and the Fast and Furious movies, stat!

 

[Eddie-Griffin]

Strange, we had a logo reveal thread, or was that a place holder? The first look is new though.

 

[bender]

It's a love story.

 

[Griffon]

If the need for speed movie managed to be decent, so can this.

Still a stupid idea tho. In the end it's just gonna be a random racing movie with a video game IP grafted on it.

 

[Valedix]

What a stupid fucking idea

cool shitpost

 

[remember_spinal]

ooooooh i saw kissing!

 

[93xfan]

Could be a good time killer while I patiently wait for Lawn Mowing Simulator: The Movie news. The next couple of years are going to be stacked, with a NFL Madden and Sim City Movie on the way.

 

[Revolutionary]

Director Neill Blomkamp...

His most recent movie was a giant pile of garbage, but he did direct District 9...

 

[93xfan]

Please let the movie have the same physics as the earlier games. I want this kid to win by running into the other cars as well as the guard rails.

He's not writing it, thankfully

 

[ManaByte]

It's just a race car movie.

No it's not. It's an eSports movie about GT eSports players. So expect cringe from Hollywood producers who think they're hip to the eSports scene.

 

[Crayon]

A kid who plays gt and becomes a real race car driver then Sophy takes his job and he ends up sucking dick for crack.

 

[ZehDon]

Colour me interested. The story could be interesting if well told.

 

[ManaByte]

Anyone know what it's actually about?

It's about a GT Sport eSports player who wins a bunch of Nissan competitions and ends up racing real cars.

Well, there's a tie in to the game. That explains it a little more.

Oh. Lmao,

 

[Represent.]

If the cinematography is legit, like Top Gun legit, then this will be an amazing watch. Pure racing adrenaline

 

[gothmog]

I'll probably go see it in one of those fancy 4D theaters with the moving seats. Seems like a good place to see a movie like this.

 

[TheThreadsThatBindUs]

I looked for Tom Holland in that trailer and was initially disappointed until I saw that he's playing the Nissan Skyline in that penultimate shot.

 

[Atrus]

It better be about family.

His best performance yet, high octane performance

 

[Heisenberg007]

I'm looking forward to seeing what they can do with it. The casting is great, so I have hope. And "true story" films can have that underdog vibe that can be inspiring and emotionally fulfilling.

I just hope they can match the emotional beats and vibes of Ford vs. Ferrari -- which I feel is the best car racing film and the best advert for Gran Turismo yet.

 

[consoul]

It's a movie where the main character spends two hours trying to take three consecutive corners without hitting a traffic cone and then he spins a wheel and wins a pink Yaris.

 

[Heisenberg007]

The final challenge will be to get Gold in all license tests.

Movie would need to be a full tv series for that

[TidusYuna]

[tommib]

So much GT love. Movie is looking much better than expected.

 

[AGRacing]

They give the main character 12,000 dollars and he must find a used Mitsubishi to start his epic journey. He drives it to a cafe in a secluded tranquil place. The soundtrack will be only soft piano music. By the end of the film (this isn't a movie ... It's a FILM) people will debate if it was about the cars he learned about or the cafe he learned about cars in.

 

[alucard0712_rus]

What a stupid fucking idea

Idea of a kid playing driving games and became a real-life winning driver that based on real story is stupid?

Yes
