It's not just games. When they made the John Wick show the Continental, they didn't bother talking to or consulting anyone actually affiliated with the John Wick series. Same for Ballerina, which the production got so bad, they inevitably just called Stahelski to direct the 2nd half of the movie in reshoots.

This is effectively producers thinking they know better than anyone else and nothing more.

I completely forgot about this one, too. Did anyone watch it?

Ballerina turned out pretty good, especially considering that there were reshoots. I suppose it's hard to mess up an action film so long as the action is good.

Haven't seen the Continental but I heard it's decent.

Continental had a dope opening action scene and then was pretty ass the rest of the show.

I enjoyed the Continental but it's getting alot of hate on here. I didn't take it too seriously, just watched for the entertainment value.
