The gaming population is about 99.9% positive that the live-action film adaptation of the classic PlayStation game Shadow of the Colossus will suck big hairy scrotum. Justin Marks, the guy penning the screenplay, would like to convince us otherwise. Justin Marks also shat out the screenplay for a little gem called Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li, so we’re gonna’ have a hard time believing him.

“With a lot of games there are so many elements in the universe you spend your time tearing down and tearing down,” he said. “What’s nice about this game is that it’s so sparse so you can start building right away.”

So your saying we don’t have to worry because there’s a lot of room for you to just make shit up? Sounds more like a reason this game’s movie adaptation will just be another quick paycheck for a talentless writer. Be afraid. Be very afraid.
