„God of War“-Schöpfer sagt, TV-Erstauftritt sei „so dumm“ und „schrecklich“: Sieht aus, als wäre er „im Wald“

David Jaffe:
>“I’m sure everybody’s trying real hard, [but] it’s so dumb. But let’s be incredibly clear, okay? Two things can be true. This can be a terrible image, and it is. It’s so bad in so many ways, which we’ll talk about in a moment. And Ron Moore is awesome, who is the showrunner… This guy is a juggernaut of a talented fellow. I have absolutely no doubt it is going to be a good show.”

>Jaffe added that he doesn’t mind that star Ryan Hurst isn’t a dead ringer for Kratos, but instead takes issue with his expression and pose in what he described as a “dumb fucking image.”

>“Kratos in this pose with this expression, not the guy’s face, but this expression, he just looks stupid,” Jaffe explained. “If you’re going to reveal, to most people, a brand new character that you hope is going to carry your series, for the first time, and they’ve never really seen this before, and this is the way you introduce them?”

> “Maybe that’s conscious. Maybe they’re like, ‘Well, what we really want to focus on is the father-son story. And if we focus on him being like, Spartan rage, and all that, maybe people are like, “I don’t want to watch that show.”’ Ok maybe. But then, at that point, could you find a picture that doesn’t look like he’s shitting in the woods? Cause that’s what the picture looks like.”

Ok that’s actually hilarious. It’s overdramatic but hilarious

I gotta say I didn’t see it that way at first, but now that he said that I can kinda get where he’s coming from 

The production is an absolute shit show. Someone who isn’t me works for the production company and the show runners and costume designers are making last minute changes, the lead actor is not very muscular (and a crystal hippy but that’s not relevant). And a million other things. Someone who isn’t me has tried to remind them that there are fans who have been fans for 20 years and they’re gonna be pissed about the changes and direction the show is taking. It’s gonna be a dumpster fire from the sounds of it

Not nearly as bad as whatever the slop face is they used on the video thumbnail 

It honestly looks fine to me but also this is one of the reasons why I think we need to calm tf down on all these live-action remakes. Not everything needs to be remade into live-action when it already exists in a visual form of media. Sheesh!
