@@Chubby_Lemon One thing I'd like to advise on when the consumption of male human genitalia would be the cooking process. From what I understand the main male part can be quite tough and rather chewy when cooked at high temperatures such as grilling or pan frying. As a former chef, I would advise a quick pan sear with a robust olive oil, maybe sauté some onion first, then red wine to deglaze the pan, and then finishing it off braised in the oven slow and low, maybe 250f for 2-2 1/2 hrs. Add some fresh herb at the end like sage and I would probably suggest serving it with something like potato mash or a warmed cauliflower confit, kinda like the traditional English dish of Bangers and Mash? What say you? Is the sage a bit too much, overpowering?
Don't forget, this is about more than just game adaptations. Velma was a great example of how you can use the likeness of beloved characters and then completely change everything about them. I feel like executives think that this is the "formula" to succeed and it never works. They just never learn.
Producers keep thinking “Oh! If we buy the rights to a game and make a show out of it, it will come with a built-in fanbase!” instead of making an actually good show. WHEN WILL THEY LEARN!!
they won't. all the bigwigs are out of touch 50-60 year olds still thinking in terms of cable TV. their only experience with videos games is from the SNES era and they can barely grasp the concept of the youth of today because the people they're marketing to are 30 years younger than them!

Twisted Metal could work as a "Tales From the Crypt" anthology show, the PS2 version had some morbidly disturbing stories with their characters and as a live action show, they can tie some common events in each episode, but at the end, someone different wins (or thinks they win) and a different ending unfolds, leaving you wondering what was real and what isn't, basically Twisted Metal Black's entire premise.
And if they get a season 2 they establish that last season's winner was so-and-so and the effects that has on the world of the new season are such-and-such.
Exactly what I was thinking, black was perfect and could really be a great base for a show, add depth to the characters more, and it would be cool as hell, especially if they made a new winner to show the different outcomes you'd be on the edge of your seat wondering who's ganna win next
The one time I ever heard or interacted with Peacock was when an elderly woman paid me some money to set it up and explain the remote for her. I bet she's stoked for Twisted Metal.
I don't think they would make half life a comedy like twisted metal. The real problem would be the protagonist itself since Gordon Freeman don't talk and dosen't have a personality, mostly because is in the player perspective. And if they decide to give him one, 90% of the people who played would be disappointed because didn't fit the way they look the character as the time they played.
Cant wait for the Amazon Warhammer 40,000 series to be about love, understanding and friendship in a universe of peace, tranquility and quirky one-liners.
It should have been a non-linear story -- taking time to deviate from the main story to cut to exposition, but only within breaks in the action. We don't need them getting out of the car to do goofy setpieces DURING the contest.

Similar to the Watchmen when it came to comics in the 90s. The Watchmen was great and everyone tried to mimic it like Rob Liefeld and others, but the problem is they didn't understand WHY Watchmen was great, they just assumed people liked it because it was dark and that's all a comic needed to be good at the time. So what we got were a parade of mediocre comics like Youngbloods.

5:38 Drew Gooden made a video about the writer’s strike that might answer your questions here. His video was mostly focused on the issues surrounding how the film industry handles their treatment of writers in general, but given the issues he talked about of writers not being given sufficient context, payment, being quickly tossed out so they can’t advise the actual production of shows and movies that they work on in order to cut costs on writer’s wages, it’s very easy to imagine how tired, stressed, mishandled and mistreated writers can easily start making a lot of mistakes with more complex scripts, especially ones involving very subtle elements like comedic timing and such.
all they had to do was strike a balance between showing gore and violence without making it all about horror, balance it with comedy and you’ll likely bring in a new audience who can handle the gruesome moments
"without making it all about horror" Yeah maybe Sweet Tooth _won't_ be a psychotic serial killer who just wants to have the highest KDR before he goes to hell.
They could have shown an infinite amount of other things,like the combat, Calypso being Calypso, introducing the contestants and their vehicles, hell just Sweet Tooth with his head on fire.
Sweet Tooth is so underrated as a creepy clown. Also how low is the show's budget if they can't even bring back the fire from the latest game? A videogame can make a badass cgi fire on top of a bald man's head but a tv show couldn't?
@@floatingdisembodiedhead8975 inb4 there's a bad joke referencing it at some point along the lines of "ooh you're making me such a hot head!" and then his pubes combust
Still reeling from the unfathomable reality that the Netflix Resident Evil adaptation was talking about "Zootopia Porn". I don't know how much worse it can get from that.
Book adaptations, too... The Wheel of Time is one of my favourite high fantasy book series, the first book came out when I was born and the last couple of books were completed by a different author (Brandon Sanderson) because the original author (Robert Jordan) died before finishing the series. Then they make a show out of it and it's completely divorced from the story of the books and it's garbage. Breaks my fucking heart, man.
That's not too dissimilar to what happened with Eragon, actually. The book is supposed to be enthralling (I haven't read it), but the film is... lackluster.
It's been over a decade god damn it, I don't think a Twisted Metal COMEDY TV SHOW can ever get as much hype and fan support as a remaster with polished controls would Man I miss this game so bad
Honestly this show will probably put any hope of a sequel in the grave. Usually if a piece of media does bad companies and share holders look at it as consumers are disinterested in the product rather than realizing that the writing and quality of that product was shit. So unfortunately we probably won't see twisted metal for another decade after this show
I do too, very much. Crossout doesn't hit the same, the Warhammer car combat game is pretty good, but it STILL doesn't hit the same as a simple game of Twisted Metal does. I actually bought a PS3 JUST FOR Twisted Metal 2012 -- only to be disappointed when I realized there were only 3 playable characters, the online was a broken mess, and they'd added RACING STAGES and those weird electric cage matches...it was fun, but it was a mess. If we do get a new game, it's going to be a garish mess with no story, play to win online, and they'll blame the failure on FANS, and I'll be dead before it gets done justice.
I remember discussing with friends about a potential Twisted Metal series. If possible, having one episode dedicated to each essential character from the franchise would be a good build up. The last episode being Calypso introducing the Twisted Metal tourament for season 2
I was expecting something like each episode or a few episodes going through the character's backstory and story. Like how Twisted Metal: Black handled the campaign for each character, minus the parts that tie it into having the same gameplay segments.
Twisted Metal: Black was by far the most intense and full-throttle game in the series, even had a few small jokes thrown in here and there. I hate how they're probably going to ruin the franchise like this.
Eh, the best vengeance is by treating it like it isn't even in the franchise. Look at LotR. Rings of Shit isn't considered to be in the LotR universe by most fans, and it did terribly because of that. Let them have their bad shows and lose money because they refuse to stick to what the real fans want. They'll suffer for it until they get good
The clowns name isn't Sweet Tooth. That's what his car is named. The clowns name is Needles Kane, a more destructive alternate personality of Marcus Kane that took over.
I never played the games, watched it and fell in love with the series and downloaded an emulator to play the games if that tells you how well it was adapted lol
@@Narutass43 I agree, but all the belmonts have their own unique qualities. Trevor coming before Simon, and being the one that gets Alucard introduced to the belmont family. He wasnt a bad pick at all. Personally, I would love to see a series with Richter.
I think they're making Sweettooth more like his Twisted Metal 1 version. He's crazy but in a somewhat comedic insane Joker way. He kills but makes jokes and is generally nutty
The Last of Us is proof what happens when you actually care about the source material. It should be the golden standard for every movie/TV show adaptation of a video game
@@dimples9746 I never played them, but I know they can funny. For gods sake, you got an evil murder fueled ice cream clown with a machete the size of child. That’s hilarious. But pure comedy for that, it’ll get stale
It's shows and adaptions like that which make me want to get into film making just to dedicate myself to making actually decent, fan driven adaptions, or at least gather a team of like-minded folks for such a project. I can't be the only person who feels this way. Hopefully I can get somewhere with it if I pursue this yearning for good video game adaptions.... if...
You could probably take the RC version of Twisted Metal and make it gold. These guys are just too busy getting into the "industry" instead of being in it for the film making.
“What should we adapt for our next made-for-piss-cock video game tv show after Halo?” “A niche game series that hasnt had a new entry in a decade” “Perfect”
I still remember the Jumper movie from way back in the day. I could list the details it shared with the book faster than I could list the differences. They basically just used the name.
A proper adaptation of the Twisted Metal franchise (video games and comics) is the furthest thing from a mainstream, PG show. All the characters are based on different mental disorders and the backstory of some of the characters is absolutely beyond brutal. It deals with very heavy emotional subjects like guilt, grief, trauma and unaliving and just the capacity for human beings to be absolute evil monsters and it doesn't hold back on the mental imagery. A proper adaptation would be amazing but society ain't ready for it. And probably only HBO could do it well, not hecking Peacock.
I’m betting they just got stuck with the Twisted Metal IP and decided to squeeze what profit they could out of it while groveling for a bigger franchise
Theory: Every company has deep undercover agents (writers/producers/etc.) working for their rivals, with the sole aim to disrupt their profits. What we're seeing now is the fallout as each agent tries to disrupt their rivals bottom line
Isn't that just a form of corporate espionage/sabotage? Pretty sure that's highly illegal. Maybe some people are just stupid and can't do their jobs. And if a company is full of these people... The rest is history.
What a wild time it is. Used to be movies destroyed the books and now TV shows are destroying the video games. Welcome to the world of the corporate machine Charlie.
As a guy who loved reading sci fi novels as a kid I always wanted Isaac Asimov's Foundation to be made into a film or a show. Then recently they actually did it and I was excited, although given the way tv is these days I was a bit worried about what they'd do with it. Turns out I was right to be worried as they completely destroyed it. Couldn't even finish it I was so angry and disappointed.
It was fucking awful. The last excellent sci-fi series I watched was The Expanse. Hell, I'd kill for Firefly to come back and retcon the film so Wash could shine.
Charlie is literally me, Twisted Metal 2 was one of my favorite games growing up and watching the trailer without seeing a single car was absolutely soul crushing.
At this point I wouldn't be surprised if they made a "for a modern audience" Fossil Fighters with Rosie being the owner of Vivosaur Island and the protag being made fun of at every opportunity because he still uses the beginning Altispinax you're given.
@@Nicole-zh7pl Yeah, and I saw someone post 'bad bot' on my comment.

No subscriptions, no videos, completely barren. So the MO of these comment bots seems to be stealing an original comment, then leaving a post on someone's reply calling them a bot.

Memories to summer days beating these games as the different characters with my cousin to see these twisted endings was great. "DUUUDE I just beat the end get back in here!" *as the cutscenes begin he runs back in with his pizza bagels.* Spencer's little white Porche with the homing missiles was always GG2EZ in multiplayer.
This is the new trend. Source material doesn't matter to writers. This is also why they go so hard against fans, the people who know the source material and can call it out. It's either laziness or spite. They want established names because they think people will just accept it and shower them with money.
The depraved stories conjured up in the Twisted Metal series always seemed to fit a world like HBO's "OZ". Twisted Metal has unlimited possibilities just within it's simple story of wish fulfillment. Can't say I'm surprised. Halo opened the door to allow networks to take a precious series and just take a steaming dump on it.
Man if twisted metal got scooped up by the same people who made game of thrones we would be getting something special I think. Peacocks had some hard flops from some good ideas too.
Twisted Metal Black has some of the most guttural, thought provoking story telling I have ever witnessed...it's gonna be a real hard pill to swallow watching the franchise morph into some cheesy throwaway TV comedy.

Nice!! Samoa Joe can talk, has personality, and is believable as an ass kicker. I’m glad Cokie the Khan didn’t try to sell them on god damn Pockets or Twinkletoes Omega for the role instead.
I agree so much with your sentiment about not knowing who the audience is. Like, they aren't appealing to the fans, so that's out. But it's also not a good show on its own so there aren't any other people who would like it. It doesn't make any sense. And then the company loses money and goes "welp, guess video game adaptations just don't sell _shrug_ ." It's so frustrating. It's like they're trying to make it bomb on purpose and I literally have no clue why.

At some point you just accept for something to live and prosper, it will have to eventually shrivel and die.
Twisted metal in a nutshell
5:38 Drew Gooden made a video about the writer’s strike that might answer your questions here. His video was mostly focused on the issues surrounding how the film industry handles their treatment of writers in general, but given the issues he talked about of writers not being given sufficient context, payment, being quickly tossed out so they can’t advise the actual production of shows and movies that they work on in order to cut costs on writer’s wages, it’s very easy to imagine how tired, stressed, mishandled and mistreated writers can easily start making a lot of mistakes with more complex scripts, especially ones involving very subtle elements like comedic timing and such.
Charlie already made a video discussing the writer’s strike so I think he’s already aware. Maybe it was a rhetorical question??
all they had to do was strike a balance between showing gore and violence without making it all about horror, balance it with comedy and you’ll likely bring in a new audience who can handle the gruesome moments
I imagine a show like Future Man.
Yay! I love it when they water it down for the masses!
"without making it all about horror"
Yeah maybe Sweet Tooth _won't_ be a psychotic serial killer who just wants to have the highest KDR before he goes to hell.
Seems tough to do for modern show runners to not just have random gore porn moments.
I don't know why people had any hopes as soon as Anthony Mackie's name was connected to it
I’m starting to feel like Charlie’s therapist. Bro owes me 1500 for a whole year of unpaid bills.
The description of around 3:00 tells me why they're not adapting that. it's pretty obvious why they're not adapting that.
They could have shown an infinite amount of other things,like the combat, Calypso being Calypso, introducing the contestants and their vehicles, hell just Sweet Tooth with his head on fire.
Sweet Tooth is so underrated as a creepy clown. Also how low is the show's budget if they can't even bring back the fire from the latest game? A videogame can make a badass cgi fire on top of a bald man's head but a tv show couldn't?
@SquidwardMusic2 your grammar needs to be more gooder
@@floatingdisembodiedhead8975 inb4 there's a bad joke referencing it at some point along the lines of "ooh you're making me such a hot head!"

@@yeetusdeletus8565 what??
Guess a writer saw a twitter argument or something trending and said "let's add that in" for some fucking reason wtf
Book adaptations, too... The Wheel of Time is one of my favourite high fantasy book series, the first book came out when I was born and the last couple of books were completed by a different author (Brandon Sanderson) because the original author (Robert Jordan) died before finishing the series. Then they make a show out of it and it's completely divorced from the story of the books and it's garbage. Breaks my fucking heart, man.
That's not too dissimilar to what happened with Eragon, actually. The book is supposed to be enthralling (I haven't read it), but the film is... lackluster.
Thank you so much for bringing this up, when i saw the trailer i was so upset and my friends didnt understand why
You know it's real when Charlie couldn't be bothered to center himself
It's been over a decade god damn it, I don't think a Twisted Metal COMEDY TV SHOW can ever get as much hype and fan support as a remaster with polished controls would
Man I miss this game so bad
Honestly this show will probably put any hope of a sequel in the grave. Usually if a piece of media does bad companies and share holders look at it as consumers are disinterested in the product rather than realizing that the writing and quality of that product was shit. So unfortunately we probably won't see twisted metal for another decade after this show
I do too, very much. Crossout doesn't hit the same, the Warhammer car combat game is pretty good, but it STILL doesn't hit the same as a simple game of Twisted Metal does.
I actually bought a PS3 JUST FOR Twisted Metal 2012 -- only to be disappointed when I realized there were only 3 playable characters, the online was a broken mess, and they'd added RACING STAGES and those weird electric cage matches...it was fun, but it was a mess.
If we do get a new game, it's going to be a garish mess with no story, play to win online, and they'll blame the failure on FANS, and I'll be dead before it gets done justice.
the best part about this is the Peacock ad sitting right below Charlie the entire time
I remember discussing with friends about a potential Twisted Metal series. If possible, having one episode dedicated to each essential character from the franchise would be a good build up. The last episode being Calypso introducing the Twisted Metal tourament for season 2
I was expecting something like each episode or a few episodes going through the character's backstory and story. Like how Twisted Metal: Black handled the campaign for each character, minus the parts that tie it into having the same gameplay segments.
Give this man a medal
Twisted Metal: Black was by far the most intense and full-throttle game in the series, even had a few small jokes thrown in here and there. I hate how they're probably going to ruin the franchise like this.
Eh, the best vengeance is by treating it like it isn't even in the franchise. Look at LotR. Rings of Shit isn't considered to be in the LotR universe by most fans, and it did terribly because of that. Let them have their bad shows and lose money because they refuse to stick to what the real fans want. They'll suffer for it until they get good
Twisted metal black + slipknot Iowa, a classy 8th grade afternoon.
Wow a commercial with 'paint it black' playing just came on tv while typing this.
I wish they would talk about veganism more😅
Bruh Twisted Metal is great and can do no wrong. Drop a kids TV show i wouldnt care.
@@shonenjumpmagneto "Sweet Tooth Did Nothing Wrong!"
The clowns name isn't Sweet Tooth. That's what his car is named. The clowns name is Needles Kane, a more destructive alternate personality of Marcus Kane that took over.
343 is like that friend who's had like 4 interventions but still won't kick the habit
Castlevania was something I always wanted adapted into an animated series and the team at Netflix did a great job
Hope the sequel with Richter is quality too. Still salty my boy Simon got skipped though.
I never played the games, watched it and fell in love with the series and downloaded an emulator to play the games if that tells you how well it was adapted lol
One of the VERY few videogame adapts that was amazing...but by god I am glad they did it and stopped while they have a great show.
@@Narutass43 I agree, but all the belmonts have their own unique qualities. Trevor coming before Simon, and being the one that gets Alucard introduced to the belmont family. He wasnt a bad pick at all.
Personally, I would love to see a series with Richter.
Well, even a broken clock is right twice a day.
I think they're making Sweettooth more like his Twisted Metal 1 version. He's crazy but in a somewhat comedic insane Joker way. He kills but makes jokes and is generally nutty
I hope this means the greatest character in all of fiction returns
The Last of Us is proof what happens when you actually care about the source material. It should be the golden standard for every movie/TV show adaptation of a video game
Exactly I thought people would see that and learn
maybe that's why he's not THE best if you think about it
that's not even close to game lol
@@Blade_runner-dh4dwit was exactly like the game minus one episode. Are you blind?

@@dimples9746 I never played them, but I know they can funny. For gods sake, you got an evil murder fueled ice cream clown with a machete the size of child. That’s hilarious. But pure comedy for that, it’ll get stale
It's shows and adaptions like that which make me want to get into film making just to dedicate myself to making actually decent, fan driven adaptions, or at least gather a team of like-minded folks for such a project. I can't be the only person who feels this way. Hopefully I can get somewhere with it if I pursue this yearning for good video game adaptions.... if...
You could probably take the RC version of Twisted Metal and make it gold. These guys are just too busy getting into the "industry" instead of being in it for the film making.
Good luck. Henry Cavill's feminazi co-workers complained about him using alleged "gamerbro" language.
Hollywood isn't interested in competent people that care about delivering good products. Either you push their messages or they don't hire you.
please do
Nope that will never happen. It's the producers who make the decisions and they don't give a shit about the properties.
They're hiring writers based on identity instead of talent. So all they know to do is write the obvious cliches. It's what killed the comics industry.
This aged like milk.
Indeed
To be fair the first Trailer is still astronomically awful. Show was great though
“What should we adapt for our next made-for-piss-cock video game tv show after Halo?”
“A niche game series that hasnt had a new entry in a decade”
“Perfect”
I love how Charlie waited exactly 46 seconds into the video to drop his first f-bomb. Convinced he has a timer set up on his PC when he starts.
Do they not allow monetization if you say a curse within the first 45 seconds?
@@KarazolaX i think so, they got more strict with what swears you can say and how often you can say them

I’m definitely screenshoting this videos title and thumbnail as a meme
I still remember the Jumper movie from way back in the day. I could list the details it shared with the book faster than I could list the differences. They basically just used the name.
A proper adaptation of the Twisted Metal franchise (video games and comics) is the furthest thing from a mainstream, PG show. All the characters are based on different mental disorders and the backstory of some of the characters is absolutely beyond brutal. It deals with very heavy emotional subjects like guilt, grief, trauma and unaliving and just the capacity for human beings to be absolute evil monsters and it doesn't hold back on the mental imagery.
A proper adaptation would be amazing but society ain't ready for it. And probably only HBO could do it well, not hecking Peacock.
I’m betting they just got stuck with the Twisted Metal IP and decided to squeeze what profit they could out of it while groveling for a bigger franchise
Theory: Every company has deep undercover agents (writers/producers/etc.) working for their rivals, with the sole aim to disrupt their profits. What we're seeing now is the fallout as each agent tries to disrupt their rivals bottom line
the deep stage
Isn't that just a form of corporate espionage/sabotage? Pretty sure that's highly illegal. Maybe some people are just stupid and can't do their jobs. And if a company is full of these people... The rest is history.
"But that's just a theory. A FILM THEORY!"

As a guy who loved reading sci fi novels as a kid I always wanted Isaac Asimov's Foundation to be made into a film or a show. Then recently they actually did it and I was excited, although given the way tv is these days I was a bit worried about what they'd do with it.
Turns out I was right to be worried as they completely destroyed it. Couldn't even finish it I was so angry and disappointed.
It was fucking awful. The last excellent sci-fi series I watched was The Expanse. Hell, I'd kill for Firefly to come back and retcon the film so Wash could shine.
Asimov is probably too cerebral for a great adaptation. What works great as a book in this case may not translate to the screen.
Ha ha! Remember "I, Robot!"

Somehow still a more faithful adaptation than “I am Legend” 😂

Charlie is literally me, Twisted Metal 2 was one of my favorite games growing up and watching the trailer without seeing a single car was absolutely soul crushing.
Effort is a rare commodity nowadays.
Times like these remind me to be the change I want to see
Effort was never the prime motive of the studio system-profit is, has been, and always will be.

No subscriptions, no videos, completely barren. So the MO of these comment bots seems to be stealing an original comment, then leaving a post on someone's reply calling them a bot.

The clown's name is Needles Kane.
Sweet Tooth is the name of the ice cream truck he drives.

Memories to summer days beating these games as the different characters with my cousin to see these twisted endings was great. "DUUUDE I just beat the end get back in here!" *as the cutscenes begin he runs back in with his pizza bagels.* Spencer's little white Porche with the homing missiles was always GG2EZ in multiplayer.
This is the new trend. Source material doesn't matter to writers. This is also why they go so hard against fans, the people who know the source material and can call it out.
It's either laziness or spite. They want established names because they think people will just accept it and shower them with money.
“It’s not that I want to, I have to.”
I’ve never felt more understood lol
Gamers: How many times do we have to teach you this lesson, old man?
Hollywood Producer: I love the gamers.
The depraved stories conjured up in the Twisted Metal series always seemed to fit a world like HBO's "OZ". Twisted Metal has unlimited possibilities just within it's simple story of wish fulfillment. Can't say I'm surprised. Halo opened the door to allow networks to take a precious series and just take a steaming dump on it.
Even OZ was hokey as shit. It didn't age well.
Man if twisted metal got scooped up by the same people who made game of thrones we would be getting something special I think. Peacocks had some hard flops from some good ideas too.
Twisted Metal Black has some of the most guttural, thought provoking story telling I have ever witnessed...it's gonna be a real hard pill to swallow watching the franchise morph into some cheesy throwaway TV comedy.

Charlie, I think you're the problem 😂 that Hawaiian punch line was gold. I lost my shit when you quoted it.
I agree so much with your sentiment about not knowing who the audience is. Like, they aren't appealing to the fans, so that's out. But it's also not a good show on its own so there aren't any other people who would like it. It doesn't make any sense. And then the company loses money and goes "welp, guess video game adaptations just don't sell _shrug_ ." It's so frustrating. It's like they're trying to make it bomb on purpose and I literally have no clue why.
You’d think they would learn with how well edgerunners, arcane, and castelvania did
