I'm gonna start this by saying I have no biased, hateful things towards Call of Duty. Yes I'm more into the fighting and action/adventure games but I like the story of Call of Duty but I don't like the gameplay itself. The game is too easily hacked and it's pretty pointless if you ask me, I know every game is repetitive in it's own way but still. Anyways I'm gonna list ways a Call of Duty could work or fail as a peice of film making.
1: This should be the most obvious choice of director. Seeing how he is so passionate about the military and get certain things to be real how the military would do it, why not have Michael Bay direct the film. I know a lot of you out there are haters because you don't like the Transformers films. But think about it and give me a better reason on why he shouldn't direct over why he should.
2: Film it as an actual film and not exactly how the games are, if you do it how the games are where you only see the hands and gun then it's gonna be bad and you will need shot for such stupidity.
3: Give it more drama and give the characters more personal issues then what the games give us. It makes the characters more interesting and for the love of god give us a damn backstory.
4: I feel it doesn't necessarily need to be R rated, it can honestly go either way. But that's just me.
5: The drama needs to be equal to the action. If not then it's either a drama-war film or just another mindless action film.
6: Base it off of the Modern Warefare sereis, 1: It's logical and 2: It's the better story of the Call of Duty franchise, though the franchise needs a reboot.
