      Just made my first romantic comedy - featuring two girls

      Surprisingly, a lesbian flick didn't go down too well in 1920 .....

          This game looks fantastic. Finally something Sims like with a purpose and a fun element of movie making too!

          This slipped under my radar to a certian extent, didn't realise it was out so soon but I think I will definately make a purchase.

          Quick question are the controls fairly simple like the Sims? I mean is it as easy to pick up and play? I'm sure the gf would like this too, just ideally not with stupidly over complicated controls!

          Your movie was good EvilBoris, and one of your scientist guys look like Otacon from MGS!

          The reviews you had were classic, this one made me laugh:

          SIMPLY_SHANE - Halfway in, I hit stop. The only other movie I've never been able to sit through is House of the Dead. That speaks for the quality of this submission.
          You are the Uwe Boll of this game!

            That was a modernist classic, Boris!
            Definitely shades of Battleship Potemkin there!

              As far as camera angles go from what ive heard as you progress through to modern times you get more options like dollys and paning and stuff.

                  The impressions here have made me really interested in this. I'd had my eye on The Movies beforehand, but recent US reviews have been half-lukewarm (by their standards).

                  The concept of the game, in being able to direct and produce has me seriously anticipating getting to grips with this. If only to toy around with in a few insane ideas.

                      if you're expecting a fully in depth movie creation tool then you'll be dissapointed, you pic the scenes, choose backdrops props direction (what type of scream she has etc.) who is there what they're wearing etc.

                      so you do have a lot of control just not total control. Its nice seeing one of your own movies do well with the critics but its often also dependant on the relationship between your director and the stars

                        Yeah... I'm not expecting to alter content, but trailer camer angles, set design, character placement and the like? Yes, please.

                        It's also the managerial parts which interest me. Although The Movies is far from a simulation, I'm looking forward to getting a 'feel' for the whole process from financial to creative when it comes to promoting films. Obviously it won't offer an accurate picture, but a taste is fine by me.

                              Just a quick one guys - can you overlay the movies you create with music of your own?

                              I'm thinking of doing a "music video" for the band I play in using the game as the main tool.

                                Once you've had the time to get a lot of money, have had some experiance and are way into, say the 1990's then you can make some fantastic films!

                                When your really experianced you could out perform The Usual Suspects for plot intrigue
