Okay, Mark Rosewater just revealed that he is involved in the Magic: The Gathering Movie.
I'm one of four Wizards people currently working with the producers and writer on the Magic movie. It's our job to make sure the movie represents Magic properly. I can't really say much else about it other than it's been a blast and I'm very excited by all the things I can't talk about yet.
I'm wondering what everyone thinks his effect on the movie will be.
in other words, let the snarky Mark Rosewater jokes begin in 3...2...1...
One of the other four people in the team is Doug Beyer. The other two were not confirmed so far.
Finally, it's not like MaRo is writing the thing himself. So I really, really don't see the point of this thread? What kind of impact do you expect him to have? It's very different thing than when he's giving answers out of his head for Tumblr while he waits to get his kids in from the dentist.
i was just speculating on how involved he could be in the process, with his screenwriting background and knowledge of the pie and all. We've seen Hollywood butcher franchises like this, and I'm concerned about Wizards preventing that.
Well generally they've been good at letting the creative team do their work but also making sure that the story and lore work with the mechanics, so I am quite optimistic.
Well if they do it anything like Blizzard did with Legendary (which I think was a great way to do it) WotC kept creative control but let Fox do the production and they used MaRo and others as consultants for the Lore
I just hope they dont do the mortal kombat/street fighter treatment of "cram every irrelevant character in and make them do the exact same things as the game, or it will never work." Resident evil (the first movie) is a great example of a game to movie conversion that worked really well
Is there a place where everyday folk can offer a 30 second pitch for a movie plot?
Under treaty with the noble Ojutai, the Great Ambassador Selvala, leader of the elves and humans, holds down the fragile truce. Guarding her north, a giant female Dragon (Dromoka?). The Noble Monastaries of the Ojutai control the elements to the south. Between them exists a dispicable group of demons and goblins. Oh, and one fiery MALE dragon! Things develop to slowly get the two dragons together. Great dragon wedding finale!!! (Maybe not that much)

Grammar is the difference between knowing your ****, and knowing you're ****.
