Aquaria should be made into a movie.

I personally think that ideally if one could perfectly recreate this world in splendid CG for a live action film, it would be absolutely glorious, and perhaps as popular as Avatar.  I know however that it won't ever happen, partly because this is an indy game, and partly because they could never make something that awesome.

Actually it just says: "It'd be awesome to see it as a movie, but I think it'll never live up to the game variant."

Yes, this would most likely be an awesome CG movie, though I'm not sure what exactly would the the outside story line. I'm sure I wouldn't have a problem with it, but I think many others wouldn't just want to see some girl in a skimpy suit swimming around for an hour and a half saying little to nothing. c.c

Hey, if we went to see a clumsy little robot stacking trash for an hour and a half saying little to nothing, and loved it, why not some girl in a skimpy suit :D!
If Pixar did it, I'm sure it would be nothing short of amazing ^^!

Well baring in mind that the whole story is getting condensed into 1.5 hours I think Naija would have plenty to say. Especially if she commented on things as she swam past. ;)

That said, its never gonna happen. And if pixar did it they'd make it childish and cartoony and it wouldn't be half as good. XD

I honestly don't see how Naija can look right in any form of 3D.

Who would we get to play Naija?

I want suggestions, and I want photoshops. :)

That would be you, just paste earfins onto your head and get in a skimpy outfit like Naija's you'd fit in perfectly. :D
I believe photoshopped pics of Alec having earfins been already made. :P

@.@.. I think its fine the way it is xD can't really imagine how a movie would show the storyline or the feel of the game, cause a lot of the time I just enjoyed swimming around in the nice, peaceful places (like the veil) and listening to the music.. and if the movie had too much swimming and not much dialogue or events it'd be a bit boring D:

I think that we should get the original game script and revise it into a movie script.  I think that this game has the potential to be an awesome movie, but people are looking at it in the wrong way.  Also, someone suggested making it a novel, I think that would also be an awesome idea.

Let's make the novel after the movie so people won't be saying that the movie ruined the novel which ruined the game. ^.–

But then again... it's just as bad for a novel to ruin a movie that ruined a game...

And I couldn't answer the poll above because I don't know anyone. D: I watch movies for the content, not the act(or/resse)s.
