Five Nights At Freddy's Adaptation

Or just do exactly what Sister Location did in the first place and retcon in Afton having another kid. I figured that's what they would do anyway: have Mike or another character have turned into Tommy Jarvis and be investigating Afton's dirty business, only to discover a hidden facility where Afton stored his biggest secret: a daughter he accidentally killed, now living on as an undead animatronic just as murderous as he once was. Rewrite Elizabeth's plot as the whole "the previously unknown child of the killer comes for revenge" bit.

I feel like they'll leave Sister Location alone for practicality purposes.

Actually building semi-functional animatronics that could pass as the ones from SL seems like a nightmare of pistons to design and budget for.

I dunno, I think in terms of where to go for a sequel Sister Location is probably the easiest choice, followed by Security Breach. Few of the others really work as the backbone of a film story, and the other ones that I think probably do wouldn't really keep the same "on the run from homicidal animatronics" concept. (like, I think Help Wanted would make a very good plot, but it would be incredibly different in concept from the first film - whicih film studios don't like to do - so it's most likely to me that they would composite it into Security Breach)

I could see the sequel doing what Sonic 2 did and combining elements from the second and third games; like the plot is kicked off by somebody building Fazbear Frights, but the Puppet gets involved and we learn about her whole role in the story, possibly including Henry as a character, etc.

Cosplayers and hobbyists have managed to make working Sister Location style heads (which are the most important part of them imo). If they can do it, SFX professionals can do it.

I feel like we won't get a full on security breach movie. I feel like this will mostly be based on the classic era games(1-Pizza Sim) with bits of the steel wool era like Vanessa just sprinkled in there.

I don't think we'll get a full security breach adaptation, but we could have Gregory appear.

I mean we could way in the future. But I feel it will be a soft reboot like the games are. Since those aren't done either.

(4)

Ok, googling this.

Security Breach would in my opinion be one of the easier games to adapt, though I don't think it'll get done unless the entire Afton series keeps making money. I think something like 4 is the most unlikely unless it's done as part of a Sister Location movie. I'm also unsure about 2 since 2 is pretty disconnected from the Afton family.

I remember seeing them on Instagram and Twitter several months ago. The one I remember seeing was a Freddy. It was neat, the face plates opened up with a really abrupt snap. Don't remember who made them, though.

They could absolutely combine 2 & 4 into one film.

The actual nightmare interpretation of 4, anyway, not the dumb "gas torture experiment" version that seems to be canon.

Vanessa is in a coma, after all.

Honestly, 4 is the one game in the series that I want to see a cinematic take of. There is a lot of room to interpret the story in a cinematic way as a straight up horror movie. It would also serve as a perfect way to put Markiplier in there since the "WAS THAT THE BITE OF '87?!" meme came from that game.

A lot of fans now think that Max is the films version of Shadow Freddy. As her remains are shoved into a black version of a Freddy suit and Shadow Freddy was teased in the Freddy in space 3 teaser for the movie.

Lilliard signed onto a 3-movie deal which means they are doing a trilogy of the films. Given how successful the film was yeah it's gonna happen. There is a low chance they are even gonna do a fourth film, to be honest. Unless something happened that's all I am getting.

So did anybody else completely forget Lilard was in this, not recognize him when he showed up, and miss the very blatant clue in tge beginning when William was wearing a tie with faint purple patterns?

Because I dang near spat out my drink on the second watch going "holy crap that's Shaggy!"

I don't think it would have immediately clicked with me either if I hadn't already known. Graying beard, different glasses than what he normally wears, and the pinstripe old man button-down w/ tie do a lot of heavy lifting—doesn't hurt that he's probably the best actor in the movie.

What do you guys think of the movie version of William Afton/Springtrap? Personally, I think he's a great villain but on the other hand, I don't like that William doesn't have British accent anymore.

Okay I just finished the movie with two girls I kidnapped. The older one knew more about the lore than I did. She knew who Vanessa was and I was totally in the dark. She kept calling her sexy Bonny. That concerns me.

Some notes:

-One of the best cinema experiences ever, there were a lot of fans here surprisingly. They clapped when the lines were said. I ALWAYS COME BACK.

-Crowd went wild for Matpats cameo.

- The older girl kept explaining the lore to me, she picked up on who the blond kid was and recognized Spring baby. Kept complaining Chica looked ugly.

-Mike and the Abby were actually compelling.

-Crowd went wild when the criminals got chased by the animatronics and the latter partied with the cast.

Okay there’s more but I gotta get out.

Yes, I kidnapped two teenagers to watch the movie with me at gunpoint.

But shit posting aside, I do some pro bono babysitting and I took these two to watch the movie. The girl on the right is the one who knows all the stuff about FNAF while girl on the left was all confused and shit.

Don't ask me why she called Vanessa sexy Bonny. I have no idea who she is. She wasn't in any game I played.

I genuinely had no idea Mike would have a younger sister here. When we got to that part, they spent most of the movie just roasting me and Mike.

In the games Vanessa wears a skintight rabbit outfit as part of her guise as Vanny. That's probably wear the sexy Bonnie thing came from.

Okay, so apparently, her brain got fucked up by VR Springtrap or something.

And I was all "this is why I got out when I finished Pizzeria simulator."

But I guess that's where her being the daughter of the purple man came from instead of it being Elizabeth.

Man, the lore is pretty hard to follow. But the movie did reignite my interest.

The funny part is even in the main canon, Vannesa's given name is Vanessa A. Most people just thought it was a Red Herring of some kind.

(note: unless Time Travel is involved though, there's no way she's William's kid in the main canon)

Alright, so something I'd like to compliment the movie on is that I think the subplot with the aunt's custody battle and thugs really helped with the movie.

I got more invested in Mike's dilemma and why he had to get a shitty job at a restaurant with homicidal robots. And the thugs invading the pizzeria and getting murdered by the animatronics certainly was a clever way of letting the Fazbear crew go wild without it being too depressing. In fact, the crowd in my cinema were cheering and clapping when the animatronics were killing them.

One negative I have to say is that I felt the purple man was kind of weak as an antagonist to me for some reason and there's quite a bit of fridge logic. Why the hell is he a career counselor exactly? Was it just to lure security guards to murder? How did he trick the children in the animatronics that he's their friend? Just the drawing?

Matthew Villard was a joy to watch though.

As for William having a fake name and working as a career counselor, I assume the explanation is the same for why he hides as "Dave Miller' in TSE. He was found innocent of the murders but a lot of people were well aware it was him. So it was in his best interest to go off the grid and live on a new name. As for how his influence over the kids works...idk actually that plot point is kind of original to this movie. There are similar plot points throughout the novels but not quite like this.

The bit of them thinking Afton is their friend is because they still trusted him from when he tricked them as spring Bonnie. They forgot he killed them.

Just got back and I loved this movie as a fan of the games
