There's little said about the gaming/movie industry that I did not know/thought of yet. The thing is that it seems to be difficult to make a good movie from a game, but also the other way around. Another thing was talking about the differences as in mentioning that movie was more passive and games more pro-active. The truth? Nobody could tell for sure.

Then we saw the interactive movie: Late Fragment. It was an experience from the director which took hime 2-3 years of his live. As the audience you get a remote control and a few people were allowed to control it for some minutes. In this case you decided, whether you wanted to see more about the character development, or not. I
To be honest, in the beginning I found the movie quite messy. People started clicking when they wanted to see something different. In the end I was able to understand a little bit what the movie was about. Still 2/3 archive footage I did not see (since it would take about 4 hours) and I am wondering about the other characters.
So I guessed it worked afterall, the interaction. Who controls the remote, is master of the movie. Still, I don't know whether I am waiting for more on these types of movies.
