Video games to Movies

Movie adaptations of video games have always been a bit of a let down but two new announcements have definitely caught my eye. Mojang's "Minecraft" and NaughtyDogs "The Last of Us" are to appear on the big screens in a few years. Being a fan of Minecraft, a movie sounds like a really good idea but how are they going to do it? Animation? Live action? We just don't know yet. The Last of Us, however, has a great story line which is definitely movie worthy. For the people not aware of what "The Last of Us" it's set 20 years after a pandemic has radically changed known civilization, infected humans run wild and survivors are killing each other for food, weapons - whatever they can get their hands on. Joel, a violent survivor, is hired to smuggle a 14 year-old girl, Ellie, out of an oppressive military quarantine zone, but what starts as a small job soon transforms into a brutal journey across the U.S. I haven't been able to play "The Last of Us" because I do not own a PS3/4 but I have watched a play through an enjoyed it immensely.

 Let me know what you think about these new announcements, which one are you most excited for?
