Also mentioned were Jason Reitman’s “SNL 1975,” about the build up to the premiering of “Saturday Night Live,” the sequel to the Tom Holland-starring action-adventure “Uncharted,” and the much-hyped live-action adaptation of Nintendo’s hit video game franchise “Zelda,” coming off the phenomenal success of last year’s “The Super Mario Bros. Movie” with Universal.

 

[OverHeat]

The first one was good but Tom as Nate don’t do it for me

 

[FalsettoVibe]

Cool. But are they making a new game though?

 

[Ronin_7]

It was good enough I guess.

 

[RaduN]

The 1st was a piece of shit, and i'm being kind.

I think it was also a box office flop? (maybe it wasn't?). Why would they make another one, i can't imagine.

 

[Killer8]

Missing a boatload of money not having a game coming out alongside this, like The Last of Us did with the remake coinciding with the TV show.

At least put out a 4K update of the Nathan Drake Collection.

 

[Spyxos]

First one could be better, but i had some fun.

It's the same lads who made Morbius and Madame Web. That will explain any logic gap you have

 

[fart town usa]

Thought the first was awful. It could have worked if Mark was Nate and someone else Sully. Total milquetoast adventure movie.

It was literally a surprise hit, surpassed $400M and it came out during the pandemic when even MCU movies were grossing around this.

 

[TheRedRiders]

Let's get an announcement for "games are happening".

 

[Valt7786]

Mildly enjoyable but the casting was not on point at all.

 

[Iced Arcade]

First one was trash but made boat loads of cash so not surprised.

 

[IDKFA]

First one wasn't bad. If you forget it's based on the Uncharted games and turn your brain for the final act then it's an average action film.

 

[Mibu no ookami]

Let's get an announcement for "games are happening".

Someone needs to understand that there are more elements of SIE than just games now.

 

[Agent_4Seven]

 

[ReBurn]

Not until after the 4th movie.

 

[ManaByte]

Marky Mark mustache?

 

[Lokaum D+]

Fillion attempt was way better than this travesty, such a waste of opportunity and miss casting.



the casting of this short was almost flawless.

 

[Švejk]

I watched it expecting the worst, I was shocked to find that it was dumb fun for me. I didn't hate it.

But now, DEFINITELY expecting the worst.

Place your bets.. I'm going all in...

Elena will not be White.. But if she is, they'll shoehorn something else in there; she's bi, or has a gay brother/sister .. It'll be impossible that they do the pseudo love triangle between her and Chloe in this clown age. God forbid a White man actually be in love with a White woman over another race. How dare they.

 

[rhodesianshepard]

I'm really happy gamers ususally don't buy games if they aren't at least somewhat good. The same cannot be said for movies. Mark Wahlberg is terrible in action movies. I can't think of one that i like. Shooter is probably the closest to being watchable

 

[LordCBH]

First one was way more fun than I thought it would be. Will watch a sequel.

 

[Roman Empire]

I slept through the movie. Tom Holland doesn't work as Nathan Drake for me.

 

[Zannegan]

It's the same lads who made Morbius and Madame Web. That will explain any logic gap you have

Aww man. I just saw Madame Web, and I don't think I've ever seen a less coherent mess of an origin story in my entire life. It made Catwoman look competent.

 

[Bond007]

First was awesome. Im ready for a 2nd.
Low expectations and i ended up loving it.

 

[Monkfish877]

Sony more interested in making Uncharted movies than games, I'm glad they've got their priorities right.

That's not even remotely true.

Dr. Strange = 955 million
Thor: Love and Thunder: 760 million
Wakanda Forever: 859 million

Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection was released alongside the movie.

Same.

[AmuroChan]

He's probably thinking of the 2021 MCU movies - Black Widow, Shang-Chi, and Eternals.

 

[Unknown?]

Milquetoast is the definition of the story in the first and second games.

This is Sony Pictures.

 

[Killjoy-NL]

First movie was kinda fun as a sort of lazy sunday movie.
Never gave a shit about Uncharted, so the bar was low for me.

So, I'm cool with a sequel.

 

[MrRenegade]

Madame Web was quite ok. I don't know why they hammered that movie so hard. Dakota Johnson carried the whole movie on her shoulders and it worked, plus the visuals and cinematography was purrfecto.

 

[DeepEnigma]

Mr. Whiskers better be a sidekick.

 

[Hollowpoint5557]

No, but thank you though.

Big Hit was kind of funny like 30 years ago.

 

[Rob_27]

Nathan Fillion - sort it.

 

[Mibu no ookami]

This is Sony Pictures.

Actually, it is PlayStation Productions. Sony Pictures is just the distributor.

 

[Monkfish877]

Would love to see an Uncharted reboot with a younger Drake, love the character.

"$407 million worldwide on a $120 million budget, making it the fifth-highest-grossing video game film of all time."

 

[rhodesianshepard]

Big Hit was kind of funny like 30 years ago.

I was so close to writing, except The Big Hit. I didn't because it is such an underrated movie. Lou Diamond Phillips is amazing in that movie. Plus, Wahlberg is good in that role because he plays it funny. He weirdly has good comedy chops(Ted, The Other Guys, Pain and gain). Terrible at drama or anytime he has to be taken serious

 

[dead monkey uk]

I watched the first film thinking I wished they had cast Bruce Campbell as Sully.

He crushed it in The Departed though! It's a good mix of comedy and drama in that role.

 

[fart town usa]

Milquetoast is the definition of the story in the first and second games.

For sure. Just in terms of being entertained though. Like that most recent D&D movie; Totally predictable but it was just a fun watch in the theater (at least to me it was). Rarely do I expect greatness, just want to be entertained. I totally get it if people enjoyed the Uncharted movie but growing up with Indiana Jones, The Goonies, Romancing the Stone, etc. Uncharted movie was bland as hell in a bad way for me.

 

[mayham2199]

I enjoyed the movie for what it was. Wasn't raving to people about it but I had fun with it.

 

[Luc2010]

Me and the kids enjoyed it. Do not expect Indiana Jones writing and you should be fine.

 

[Boss Mog]

In today's agenda shoving landscape, the first movie was a breath of fresh air, it reminded me of action/adventure movies in the 90s, you know, when they were fun.

I'll go see the 2nd one for sure.

 

[Jaybe]

I found the first surprisingly enjoyable. Since Indiana Jones is basically dead now, good for Sony to take its place with Uncharted.
