Wolfenstein Coming To Big Screen
We have yet another video game movie coming to us, this time courtesy of director Roger Avary who’s worked on the upcoming Beowulf as well as Pulp Fiction and a few other films. He is reportedly a big fan of the Wolfenstein series, having played the original Castle Wolfenstein and the revolutionary Wolfenstein 3d. The script is almost finished and is being described as a ‘big popcorn adventure movie’. Given the plot and content of Return to Castle Wolfenstein that sounds like a fairly adequate description, especially since the director also makes mention of the horror aspect of the game. My best bet for anticipation of the movie is this: take one part Saving Private Ryan (or World War II film of your choice); add half a cup Indiana Jones (Raiders of the Lost Ark or Last Crusade, take your pick) and add a pinch of horror and bake for several hours. Garnish with an unnecessary romance and serve.
