And BAM! We got a movie.... Now let's call Kaz and maybe Peter or Bay for the directors.
Or should we call Mr. Kaz and Mr. Spielberg. Hmmmm....💡

Maybe it will be an insightful and dramatized film into the difficult life that one particular mechanic has had to endure, and we'll finally know why he's so depressed.
Either that or we discover that he was once before a rising star in the motorsport world, set on his way to becoming a multiple world champion before he suffered a horrific spinal injury which prevents him from looking upwards.

How about the sad story of the guys who work at GT Auto? Everyday they see people bringing awesome track cars and they have to wash them, change their oil and that's it. They get a meager pay for their hard work and never get to drive a car, except the few meters when driving a car trough the paint booth or out of the garage after a Race Mod. They actually have a bloody fight, a la Fight Club, to see who gets the honour of driving cars that little bit. Their sadness and madness is exacerbated by being forced to listen an endless loop of "The Entertainer", mocking their dispair.
See all the things that can come out of a game with no plot/storyline/dialogue/characters whatsoever?

Sadly a story is no longer an essential requirement for a hollywood movie.
Let's face it, this is GT they are talking about - it will all be about the visuals.
Not really. Trying to appeal to the mass market is why GT now has [arcade] levels, License tests are no longer required, and no qualifying, etc.. etc...

Hey man, you're forgetting the varying amount of engine overhauls being done or the long hours of restoring chassis rigidity.

I thought we already found out? He was depressed due to ruining Lewis Hamilton's championship hopes last year...
Nah but we all know what will happen now. Microsoft will produce FM movie right before GT movie (due to delays)

Anything that would involve an underdog rising through the ranks, having started as a street racer and going through tribulations would be a cliched waste of time and energy.
I think they'd be spot on using the term Gran Turismo as the inspiration, so it's a road movie where the car and locales are as much the star as the actors. Along the way you'd learn about the lead characters and their motivations, such as their love of cars and how they care for them. The locations could ape the Grand Tour special event in GT5 as it make its way from Switzerland to Italy and overall could present a slice of luxury and driving simulation.
At least that way it'd present an angle on one of GT's facets that didn't follow the cliche rise to the top sports drama trope. The movie Sideways proved you could make a good film that was based on a hobby - wine tasting - and still make a decent plot from it.

Maybe the movie has nothing to do with the game at all, and revolves around someone taking a Grand Tour in the 18th century.

Hmm.. Making a car movie that's all about a bunch of racers going cross-country? Isn't that just a little bit.. original?
IF it turns out to be true, I just hope it'll be the first time a movie based on a game is actually good. It has worked the other way around, so showing the world it can go both ways is a must.

Nonono. The Grand Tour special event is cross country, really. It's a great base for a movie.

Yeah, like I had said in one of my earlier posts, that type of "Grand Tour" movie is reminiscent of Cannonball Run, or Rat Race xD.
You can watch the whole movie here btw, in case you're interested:

No doubt we'll see lots of nice cars, but all cars in the film will share the same 3 rear wings and exhaust pipes.
I would like to see a tuning garage refuse their customers too, "This car cannot be painted" and "You cannot change the wheels on this car".

Oh yeah, and someone mentioned Thunderbolt as pretty much being the spiritual GT movie already, I can definitely agree with that. Just read this summary of the plot (obvious spoilers in case you still wanna watch the whole thing, it's on YT as well):
Gotta admit, it's a pretty bad ass story

Grand Tour is also a bunch of racers going cross-country, though more in a reality-tv way: meet at the Eiger and do a lap in an 8C, the best move on to Monza where you'll be given a Ferrari based on your Eiger performance etc..
I hope I didn't encourage that to actually happen.

Or the upcoming Need For Speed. Oh, the Hollywood creativity..

So if there are more than 12 people in the cinema will the film stutter?
Half way through the film PD should rock up with an update and @#%# it up, then at some point a 12 year old has to steal his dads skyline and ruin the race by going backwards, maybe killing the main characters best friend, leaving the main character with a huge problem as there is no one to tell him to "go faster", "maintain pace", "overtake" or "slowdown".
"Gran Turismo" the movie released 2014 Q4 ( actually out 2024 )

There will be Easter Eggs in this movie. A picture of Kaz and "trolling" as a caption somewhere. A picture at the Nurburgring Nordschleife of any of the GT Academy winners (or only Kaz, because he's so selfish about his hobby and all 
). I think the biggest troll/easter egg of them all will be paint chips. ha hahahaha hahaha ha hahahaaaaaa YEAH! very funny!
Oh, how cynical can a man be when he worked for five years on one game that no one exactly knew about how great it would be until it released.
Try harder, people.
As for me: Yayyyyy, I didn't double post. Blah blah crap blah crap crap crap crap. Excuse me, Ranman20, but you were the nearest post to mine to make fun of considering that 98% of the other posts are useless.
Boogie Nights, American History X. I will give my left nugget to be apart of a lug nut of the R35 in this GT-R only documentary.

Let this thread become extinct with these kind of pointless posts. Let me up my post count. I have nothing but useless jokes. I would expect these jokes to be more of the same and more useless as time goes on. It's very entertaining.
