    I have to admit, 5 nights lost its appeal to me after the shock value wore off. WAY too much research required to GET the story and the fright factor just becomes annoying after a couple of nights

    Could work well as a movie but I'm not a fan of jump scares. Always seem...lazy to me

    Oh God. Now one day, I'll have to see ads featuring Bonnie's scary as fuck face.

    I suppose the story will focus on the mystery regarding the murders, and the main character will end up solving it, and be able to help set the children's souls free. *shrug*

    If they actually bother to adapt the story behind the games, and not try to somehow re-create the game experience in a theater, this could be really good. It's sort of Nightmare on Elm Street mets Chucky Cheese, so it shouldn't bee too difficult for them to get right.

    If they focus the story on who the F was the purple guy, then they might have something.

    Seriously?

    What's the appeal to Five Nights at Freddy's?

    They're gonna make a movie...

    ...of a game where the only thing the protaganist ever does...

    is sit on his ass and lower blast doors/wear a mask and flicker a flashlight/get high off of poisionus fumes from a malfunctioning ventilation system.

    I mean, story wise there's enough that could be translated into an effective movie, but even 90 minutes of nothing but a security guard just watching security cameras and remotely operating a bunch of things is about as boring as an actual security guard's job if nothing happens on their shift.

    To be fair, it's better than yet another needless reboot of some old franchise nobody remembers.

    Watching internet personalities shit their pants more or less.

    Honestly, I'm only really familiar with the franchise from watching Markiplier on Youtube play all three of them.

    Still, it's a security guard sitting around shutting doors, turning on lights, and winding a music box all in a seat basically while crazy animatronic Chuck E Cheese rejects try to get him and stuff him into a suit.

    Yeah, there's a PLOT if you really go deep into the game, but you know Hollywood won't really look into that. Here's what I think will happen...

    FIVE NIGHTS AT FREDDY'S: THE MOVIE - A bunch of teenagers decide to stay overnight at a popular local kids pizzeria upon hearing rumors about the animatronics coming to life at night and wandering the pizzeria halls. Upon getting inside, the teens find themselves trapped and being picked off by the animatronic puppets one by one in grizzly fashion. Can any of them survive...the FIVE NIGHTS AT FREDDY'S!?

    Maybe they'll pull something like The Haunting remake and do something stupid.

    They could just use the backstory that Game Theory explained.

    I think this is a terrible idea. Then again, I didn't even like the game. This is probably going to be as bad as Ouja at worst or campy fun at best.

    So how do you make a movie about a Guard who volunteers to spend nights with the animatronics?

    Maybe if they concentrated on Purple Guy murdering the kids?

    Eh. It could work, I feel like. I would like for the film to actually delve into the story of the games. Uncover the mystery, but I doubt the makers will dive into it.

    I could see FNAF getting turned into a found footage style movie, maybe have a bunch of kids going into the restaurant after hearing about the murders or something.
