Call of Duty movie unlikely

4.7
Activision CEO Bobby Kotick has said that despite the campaign for Call of Duty being very cinematic, he has no interest in making the franchise into a movie.

Kotick has already turned down multiple requests from various studios that have offered to turn gamings biggest franchise into a movie. Kotick says movies based on video games rarely please devoted fans and could taint the brand.

Call of Duty makes up an estimated one-third of Activision’s more than $4 billion in annual revenue, so they certainly wouldn't want to do anything that could cause it harm.

Game-to-Movie adaptations have never worked very well, but if anyone knows of one that was actually good then please let us know.

I don't think it would be very good anyway, like the game does not follow all the other games campaign

Call of Duty does not follow one story line so I don't see how they would make a movie out of it anyways. I do think that it would be really awesome seeing the maps coming to life in a movie though.

But they will never know if COD will make it into the a film.
Why not give it ago? It could be a huge success for them. But on the other side it could go tits up lol

Mortar I have mixed feelings towards the idea of a CoD film, sure it could be a success, but I think it is better for them to stick with having it as a game.


Yea, I think alot of people share your opinion.
