What… uh… I can’t imagine this movie being weird enough to feel like a movie based on a FROMSOFT game while still being accessible to the wide audience needed for a big budget fantasy movie to make money.
After seeing The Green Knight I trust A24 to get this right. They are not the kind of studio that cares about the lowest common denominator. Don’t get me wrong, they can be very approachable/broader appeal when they want to as we see with their Oscar runs. But their movies definitely often target more niche audiences. Elden ring has a large enough fan base that they can count on a decent number of people showing up.
