The Uncharted movie sounds pretty stupid! Itās about a globe-trotting family of antiques collectors that dispense treasure-hunting justice. That doesnāt sound like Uncharted at all. What does Uncharted game designer Amy Henning think of the movieās concept?

Henning told MTV that the gameās developers are āprotectiveā of the Uncharted games, just like the fans. To those who wonder if David O. Russell, who doesnāt appear to have played much Uncharted, is the director for the job, Henning says we should be happy that the filmmaker behind Three Kings wants to do the Uncharted flick. Donāt be so impressed with Russell, because heās made some stinkers, too.
Thereās being too literal, and then thereās doing something that is Uncharted in name only. If David O. Russell wants to make a film about a family of treasure hunters, dishing out justice, thatās fine. But itās not Uncharted, so why feign that it is? This sounds like simple brandingāRussellās gonna make the film he wants to make, and theyāre going to slap the name Uncharted on it to goad players into seeing it.
If youāre going to make an Uncharted movie, make an Uncharted movie. Otherwise, whatās the point? To make money. Oh, right. Forgot!
