That overused quippy banter shit has made me curious for the (inevitably terrible) Elden Ring film that got announced.
Your average movie writer wouldn’t be able to just let the visual humour of something like the warrior jars just be, they don’t trust the audience enough for that. So either there’ll be “well that just happened”-ass quips when any of the goofier elements of the setting pop up, or they excise all of that and just make it as dour and joyless and grimdark as possible.
