Abstract

The purpose of this study is to analyze the success and failure of the movie made by the original game by comparing the box office environment of the movie made by the original game and to derive the necessary elements to make a good original movie. The specific analytical content studied the specific successes and failure factors of the remake of the game with , , and . Analyzes of the research show that the audience can be divided into game fan and non - game fans, and how to reflect the expectation on both sides of the movie is an important factor in making the movie. Also, games of different styles and genres from other themes can not be created in the same way as remixing movies, but flexible diversity and management are needed. Unconditional scenarios of games or game switching of movies can not be popular among the public, and it is very important to analyze specific target audiences.

본 논문의 연구 목적은 게임 원작으로 만든 영화의 흥행 환경을 비교하여 게임 원작으로 만든 영화의 흥행 성공과 실패를 분석하고 좋은 게임원작 영화를 만드는 데 필요한 요소를 도출해내는 것이라고 할 수 있다. 구체적인 분석 콘텐츠는 <워크래프트: 전쟁의 서막>, <앵그리버드>, <툼레이더>로 게임을 리메이크한 영화의 구체적인 성공과 실패 요소에 대해 연구하였다. 연구를 통해 분석된 내용으로는, 관객층은 게임 팬층과 비게임 팬층으로 나누어 질 수 있고, 영화를 만들 때 양쪽에 대한 기대심리를 어떻게 반영하느냐가 영화를 만드는 중요한 요소라는 것이다. 또한 다른 주제관과 다른 스타일과 장르의 게임을 영화로 리메이크시 천편일률적인 동일한 방식으로 만들 수는 없고 융통성 있는 다양성과 매니지먼트가 필요하다. 무조건적인 게임의 시나리오 화나 영화의 게임전환은 대중에게 인기를 얻을 수 없으며 구체적인 타겟 대상 관중에 대한 분석이 매우 중요하다고 할 수 있다.
