Film maker Steven Spielberg has a penchant for video games. Well, he used this love for ‘interactive software’ to come up with games such as Boom Blox. Another game, LMNO is still being developed and Electronic Arts had earlier rubbished all speculations that the game was canceled.
Now Steven Spielberg has said that movies are beginning to look a lot like video games. In an interview with Yahoo! Games, Spielberg was asked if filmmakers can gain knowledge from video games. This is what the ace director replied:
“I think filmmakers are learning things from videogames. Movies are starting to look more and more like videogames, like the digital introductory teasers videogames give you before they turn control over to the player. A lot of movies, like this movie with Angelina Jolie and James McAvoy called Wanted. It had a lot of videogame savvy. The Bourne Ultimatum had a lot of videogame savvy in the quick cuts and the audacity of camera angle.”
Spielberg also revealed that besides the Boom Blox game, the Wii Fit is a favorite at his house. He also spoke about LMNO and said that he is working along with Doug Church as well as Lou Castle. However, Steven Spielberg pointed out that he will be working on the game for some more time.
