why a OW movie could be a bad idea

im sure they could make a movie about OW but the quintology isnt complete yet and i dont think they can or should use that story (without spoiling it). they could try a habbitales movie but it would not have the same appeal without any habbitales games out. besides i would rather have them spend all their money on an interactive game than some other oddworld media (including not making any oddworld books). there are plenty of cut scenes in the games which is why i feel we see enough movies. (i dont like the spinning papers, they feel like a cutscene cop-out) they should just stick to the games. make them as good as possible.

yeah... after.
so no spoiling, even the movies will bring us surprises, cause they will show more in the movies than in the games, I think it's a realy good idea.

Personally I think it would make a great movie, because it would get to show us all the certain story line pieces that where cut out of the games, such as the formation of Abes moon that was suposed to be in the beging of AE. As far as the Habitales goes that would make a pretty boring movie sience the Habitales are kinda like Age of Empires where you build villages and stuff but without a real indepth plot.
