Maybe Alfie and Chantelle can star

50 Cent Options Saints Row Movie
Hip-hop star of his own video games (50 Cent: Blood on the Sand and 50 Cent: Bulletproof) is moving into the game/movie cross-over market apparently.

He can't be bothered with his own games, instead he tells MTV, "I am actually optioning the rights to Saints Row to do a movie about that game."

A movie about the game, eh, Fiddy? We'd suggest your focus group could be found here.

Still, this comes from a man who thinks that learning to play a game is ungentlemanly, "After a while you get enough time playing it (Pac-Man) and you develop these strategies and patterns in the actual game and it's kind of like cheating."

Should be a good movie. Remember, Fiddy would "like to be a part of developing, marketing and promoting a game I'm not actually in... It could be like Tetris. It's one of my favorite games."

Peace... erm.. out.

So fiddy has optioned the rights to make a movie based on a game based on the lifestyle his lyrics claim he has lead? That's franchise/brand extensionism of the highest order.

Or was I thinking of self-parody?
