Spoiler alert: for an authentic representation of the game the movie will just be two hours straight of:

"I am Malenia, Blade of Miquella and I have never known defeat"

    I'm so tired of the commodification of everything.

    Not sure I understand this take. The game was a commercial product, Fromsoft made it to sell to people. That doesn't preclude it from being art, and a film adaptation being made of it also doesn't preclude that.

    A24 has a pretty good reputation for taking risks, and they're an independent production company. Seems like probably the best possible way something like an Elden Ring film could be made, IMO.

    Here is how the film could look like:

    Getting Naked in the Middle by Deerstalker Pictures, YouTube - 2:54min

    Reminder that every character in this universe is a soul stealing monster that farms humans like cattle and sends them unwilling to an eternity of agony.
