It would work better as a serial tv show similar to CSI or L&O where each episode is a self-contained assassination that wraps up neatly at the end. You overlay it all with an overarching plot that ends with a cliffhanger each season finale. 3 seasons. Hitman fakes his death at the end and the culminating scene is the ave maria scene from bloodmoney
This would be good and you could really have fun with episodes and doing them creatively: >One is set up like an Agatha Christie whoddunit for the characters involved. >Police procedural. >Action movie episode. >Straight up horror episode. >Episode with different witnesses all telling their version of events.
don't make it an action movie
why do they insist on large scale shootouts and fights, it's much more tense to see him sneaking around, a hair away from being seen where he shouldn't be
they need to make it like a horror movie, not make a horror movie, but build the tension like one
except in this case everyone's the monster and the victim, it should show 47 sneaking around, and if anyone sees him he's screwed, and also show the people being stalked by him, growing suspicious of what's happening, like if they were being haunted except it's actually 47's tricks like trowing coins and cutting of the power, making people disappear
You never see Hitman or the actual murders.
The film follows plucky forensic scientist cop woman Trish Garner who investigates the murders and thinks there's a connection.
The movie ends with Trish Garner getting pushed off a balcony by an unseen force.

That's a great idea but it's simply too good for 2022
you can't. Hitman is about planning and trial and error. in a movie planning is usually boring, and trial and error can't occur at all (without a time travel gimmick), the protagonist has to get it right the first time. in the context of Hitman your successful run through a level will be PERFECT. so in the movie only the perfect scenario would play out which means there are no stakes, there is no tension. 47 just goes in and succeeds at everything because he's the best or whatever. boring as shit. certain aspects of games can simply never translate to a movie.
I don't know what that is but it sounds like you're asking for a "Hitman" movie that isn't actually like the games, which is how about half of the terrible game movies come about. obvious mistake. this is how 343 design their "Halo" games >make it like the games we like more than Halo, but then dress it up as "Halo" and gaslight the fans. works every time except when we've tried it previously.
>only the perfect scenario would play out which means there are no stakes, there is no tension. 47 just goes in and succeeds at everything because he's the best or whatever
That's because you're thinking about a show from Hitman perspective that is what all the bland movies have been. This is the equivalent of making a story from the Alien or Predator's perspective instead of the people reacting and dealing with the Alien or Predator. Hitman as a vehicle to tell a variety of stories would work quite well. Effectively he is almost like the wrapper. Someone is going to die somehow. So like do it like this:
This would be good and you could really have fun with episodes and doing them creatively: >One is set up like an Agatha Christie whoddunit for the characters involved. >Police procedural. >Action movie episode. >Straight up horror episode. >Episode with different witnesses all telling their version of events.
>This would be good and you could really have fun with episodes and doing them creatively: >One is set up like an Agatha Christie whoddunit for the characters involved. >Police procedural. >Action movie episode. >Straight up horror episode. >Episode with different witnesses all telling their version of events.
Have the Hitman not a myth or legend exactly but have good character drama reacting to the things that happen around him. Have one episode where the cops might capture him and you're rooting for them as they have had an arc or been built up. Have that episode where the death is a mystery and people are pointing fingers.
And then every so often you could have an episode told from his perspective or time when it all goes wrong for him.
all these people saying to not show 47 and instead be a movie about cops or victims are beyond stupid
imagine if they made a godzilla movie and focused on the people and the consequences of godzilla's actions intead of showing the big monsters
oh wait, they do that all the time and the biggest complaints are always that they didn't show what the movie is supposed to be about
why would you make a Hitman movie be just a generic detective flick
you're imagining a perfect run without any problems at all, it doesn't need to be this way
you can have 47 dodging detection by a hair, have him be backed into a corner and need to improvise and perhaps eliminate someone but the target, etc. That's how tension is built
>all these people saying to not show 47 and instead be a movie about cops or victims are beyond stupid
If you're referring to my post then you're strawmanning. I was simply saying you could have a series and do a variety of things with it. Not just focus on some cops and victims but be creative AND ALSO have 47 centric episodes. And that would be interesting. >imagine if they made a godzilla movie and focused on the people and the consequences of godzilla's actions intead of showing the big monsters >oh wait, they do that all the time and the biggest complaints are always that they didn't show what the movie is supposed to be about
Hence you need to get a correct balance. >why would you make a Hitman movie be just a generic detective flick
You wouldn't make it a generic flick, easy. Did you forget the two 47 movies we have were painfully generic? A series would be better than a movie because it would be like having a variety of levels. And you could do something interesting with it.
It would work better as a serial tv show similar to CSI or L&O where each episode is a self-contained assassination that wraps up neatly at the end.

was just a continuation of that first post. >no please don't make an arc about detective b***h moron's private life to try to make us sympathize with her being a single mother
I never said that and wasn't implying it either. You could easily be creative around the characters and storylines while still having Agent 47 issues. No where am I talking about generic "single mother sad, trying to force you to feel things for her and I hope she doesn't die at the end".
I understand you weren't pushing for that specifc scenario, and the idea of making a series around the consequences of something, instead of showing them being caused can theoretically work
my point is that it almost never does, if we had a hitman series about the cops, it would most certainly be filled to the brim with random stuff like lieutenant Yon Yonsson's struggles with immigration and sargent Poo Shiesty's relantionship with his son
the safest way to go with it is to be complacent with the original material and show 47 going on with the assassinations
a way to not show much of 47 but not end up being about the personal life of cops would be focus on the victims
every episode is on the perspective of the target, with 47 doing his mission in the background, it would develop the victim but they wouldn't be able to make arcs about unrelated stuff because they would die at the end of every episode

>and the idea of making a series around the consequences of something, instead of showing them being caused can theoretically work
You're putting out ideas that I am not stating in no way shape or form. I am in no way saying you don't show things and only show consequences. The reason I listed out examples is to say creatively you could do a bunch of stuff with assasinations. With a series every episode could be different with some overarching plot. One episode having Agent 47 doing an easy job that spirals outwards (this could be done in so many ways from action thriller of it going wrong to Fargo esque situation). The next episode a criminal and target from his perspective. Whoddunit style episode. Etc etc. >my point is that it almost never does, if we had a hitman series about the cops,
And my post was not saying the series should just be about cops. I don't think anyone in this thread wants that at all and hasn't said it. >it would most certainly be filled to the brim with random stuff like
This thread is about hypotheticals though of what you could do with Hitman. If you want to drag us into the mud talking about the industry it just goes off topic. >the safest way to go with it is to be complacent with the original material and show 47 going on with the assassinations
And the two movies we got ended up a bit generic because of it and needed something more. >a way to not show much of 47 but not end up being about the personal life of cops would be focus on the victims

I would hate every episode to be like that. I am specifically talking the opposite of what you're saying. I am saying it should be about variety. And could be creatively done.

ok, listen, like I said i liked your original post about a series with every episode being different with a overeaching plot
my problems were with this specific part of one of your posts >Have one episode where the cops might capture him and you're rooting for them as they have had an arc or been built up >had an arc or been built up
not a good ideia, besides that, yeah, your vision for a series is pretty good

It just seems weird that your dislike of an idea is completely about your perception of something I didn't even say?
I wasn't saying "have some cops in a woke arc". You can humanise and characterise people without doing that. Just because you think that is what would happen in the current industry doesn't mean that is what I was saying.
Hence why I am confused. You're just reading into things that I haven't even said. Basis of many good stories is good characters. You just seem to be thinking it would end up like that. Which I haven't commented on. I've just explicitly said, I don't mean that, several times.

I'm not claiming that's your vision for the series, but yes, my criticism of your idea comes from the fact that the film industry tend to mess it up every time they try to do it
it's the optimist realist pessimist thing, I have a hard time detaching from reality so if someone sugests something that usually doesn't work, I will try to argue it
if they made a good cop drama, that's great, I wouldn't complain if they got it right I'm just afraid they wouldn't
>been a long time since I've seen the movies, but the problem with them was not that they were about 47 and his missions, it was that they were just action movies that relied on loud guns explosions and fights
Pretty much. >instead of being about a cold calculist killer infiltrating and murdering people quietly
I think having a whole movie about a cold caculating killer might be difficult? E.g. what tone would you go for with it? Outright horror? Like having an episode in a series be like that might work more than a whole movie?
not outright horror, but the same kind of tension
imagine a child having to sneak past a forest full of monsters, getting close to being seen, having to take risks going trough open spots, etc
but instead of a kid it's 47 and instead of monsters it's just people
of course it's not as terrifying, but still it's not like 47 is invincible
the problem when movies try to make infiltrations and stealth is that they always have the character be detected and turn it into a action sequence where he kill hundreds of guards
have him not be detected, you're at the edge of your seat thinking it's now, now he's gonna get seen and things will go sideways, but he somehow manages to get away quietly

this doesn't play into the tense horror aspect but it's a good example of how not to make an assassination into an action sequence
Half of the game is figuring out the best strategy to kill X target, the other half is waiting for the enemies to go to a dark, lonely place so you can kill them
Who would watch a movie like this
you morons have 0 imagination, heist movies or shit like mission impossible are very successful, you can literally make the same shit with the end goal being the target instead of w/e it is they're stealing
It would work better as a serial tv show similar to CSI or L&O where each episode is a self-contained assassination that wraps up neatly at the end. You overlay it all with an overarching plot that ends with a cliffhanger each season finale. 3 seasons. Hitman fakes his death at the end and the culminating scene is the ave maria scene from bloodmoney
this but also make every episode one seamless take and keep it focused on 47's perspective for added kino
This would be good and you could really have fun with episodes and doing them creatively:
>One is set up like an Agatha Christie whoddunit for the characters involved.
>Police procedural.
>Action movie episode.
>Straight up horror episode.
>Episode with different witnesses all telling their version of events.
I can see this happening if 47 is black and only kills rich white people
don't make it an action movie
why do they insist on large scale shootouts and fights, it's much more tense to see him sneaking around, a hair away from being seen where he shouldn't be
it's basically nu-james bond but with more disguises and stealth with sci-fi twist
if they did it right it would be great
Funny you say that. IO are going to make a James Bond game. It'll be the best Bond in a long time I reckon.
Casting David Bateson despite him being in his 60s, no female side kick other than Diana, Jesper Kyd for music.
they need to make it like a horror movie, not make a horror movie, but build the tension like one
except in this case everyone's the monster and the victim, it should show 47 sneaking around, and if anyone sees him he's screwed, and also show the people being stalked by him, growing suspicious of what's happening, like if they were being haunted except it's actually 47's tricks like trowing coins and cutting of the power, making people disappear

wtf this actually looks decent
No it doesn't

I'd start by not making it, the story is done moron.
you can't. Hitman is about planning and trial and error. in a movie planning is usually boring, and trial and error can't occur at all (without a time travel gimmick), the protagonist has to get it right the first time. in the context of Hitman your successful run through a level will be PERFECT. so in the movie only the perfect scenario would play out which means there are no stakes, there is no tension. 47 just goes in and succeeds at everything because he's the best or whatever. boring as shit. certain aspects of games can simply never translate to a movie.
ok so make a similar movie to Boss Level but hitman

Half of the game is figuring out the best strategy to kill X target, the other half is waiting for the enemies to go to a dark, lonely place so you can kill them
Who would watch a movie like this
just have him play the scenarios in his head until he gets the right one idk
you morons have 0 imagination, heist movies or shit like mission impossible are very successful, you can literally make the same shit with the end goal being the target instead of w/e it is they're stealing
Absolution is already a perfect 1970s style exploitation film
Netflix show about him doing his job
I wouldnt. This plot only works for a video game.
The movies focus too much on making him a protagonist/good guy. He should be more neutral. Just a man doing a job and being good at it.
Just watch Leon ffs
and play Absolution if you catch my drift
