Elden Ring

If anything, the fact Elden Ring does not have a straight forward narrative, but is a fleshed out world that has a lot of lore and history, make it more likely that the story they will choose to tell will be good. They are given a setting and can tell anything that they feel would work well for a movie, instead of having to shoehorn an existing story into a movie format. They "just" need to resist the temptation to have every popular npc and places crammed into it and instead be disciplined with the scope.

This is entirely too much faith in Hollywood. This Hollywood hasn't existed for decades.

Edit: so here's a question

Assuming the main protagonist of this film is a tarnished. What do you think will be an interesting motivation for Joe Tarnished to become Elden Lord? What kind of backstory would they have? What puts them on the path of grace?

He wouldn’t necessarily need one. He could be a Yojimbo or Mad Max, Man with No Name. Plenty of examples exist of this archetype. But I think it is more likely we get a prequel store story like others have said.

No way they handle

A homosexual sadistic mass murderer
A homosexual vampire thing who abducts a gigatwink to do something with him
A woman who clones herself then bangs herself to produce heirs
A handicapped woman with super ebola/lepersy
A gigatwink who turns the most honorable chad into a bottom

In any remote non gay way. About the only way I see this working is if they leave out a lot of the more out there aspects of the lore and have a more grounded GOT world.

Modern hollywood would see Malenia be a closeted lesbian and some cringe sex scene with Finley.
