An Adventure Game that Goes to the Movies?

Well, well. All I have to say is it’s about time. Oh, what is it about time about? Well, I’ll tell you. According to Adventure Gamers, there will be an adventure game made into a movie! Which adventure game, you ask? The adventure game is pretty popular. You may have even heard of it. It’s called Broken Sword.

The name of the company producing the film is called CastleBright and you may read more about them here. Oh, and look, there’s even more information about the movie over at ComingSoon.Net. Here’s a little quote from ComingSoon regarding the movie:

Beginning with “The Shadow of the Templars” (released the U.S. as “The Circle of Blood”), films will follow the adventurous duo of George Stobbart and Nico Collard as they battle evil forces across the globe for ancient relics of power.

So, there will be at least one movie based on the series of three. Adventure Gamer points out that there might just be more movies after this one, because there are several games in the series, so if the first one is awesome, we can only hope for more awesomeness…ness.

I guess there are other movies that have adventure game themes. I mean, Indiana Jones, after all, has many adventure games that follow under his realm. But that isn’t the same, you know? I mean, the adventure game was made after the first movie came out, so it’s not really a movie about an adventure game. It’s an adventure game made after a movie. And some would argue that Pirates of the Caribbean (which comes out today… yeehaw!) is some what Monkey Island like. But maybe Monkey Island was based off Pirates of the Caribbean, which was first a book? Naaaah. That’s a stretch. Broken Sword the movie is pretty exciting any way you think about it, though.
