Ubi Movies! Really?

[Nxss]

I try to be as optimistic as the next guy, but really? Movies? All gamers know that most games based on a movie suck. And we all know that most movies based on a game suck. So, why is it that Ubi would start a production company that would take their games and turn them into a series or a movie? It really does not seem like a good idea!

Tis not like I am making the crap up. Here is a quote from GameSpot:

'The Hollywood trade reports that the new studio will be based in Paris and will be headed by Jean-Julien Baronnet. The executive previously served as CEO of EuropaCorp, the production company of film director Luc Besson (La Femme Nikita, The Fifth Element). French producer Didier Lupfer (Gainsbourg) will be in charge of development and production, with former Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures France head Jean de Rivieres leading sales and marketing.'

I can't see this going well http://forums.ubi.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif
