^ this but unironically
i blame social media and to be more precise, infinite scrolling
Think about this it way, the movie won't be translated from French at least.
No, it's really mainly that social media technology has allowed more people to engage with (or, more accurately, be expected to engage with) a variety of homogenised media. These sorts of people have always existed, and social media didn't make them dumber, only more apparent. If any single thing is to blame, it's public education.
i.e. should it matter how many people quantitatively engage with something you like? If you want a group of like-minded individuals to discuss something start a book club in your basement/IRC channel and also plot the overthrow of the bourgeoisie.

Hell yes.
Because you are too young. Or too stupid. Or both.
I think the main thing that comes to mind with a Mahoyo movie is that one comment made on Aoko vs Flat Snark and comparing it to Zelretch/CM
at the very least if this does come to pass
the movie should be pretty
I'll watch the movie if there's no translation. Will read the VN when translation releases. It's what I did with Chaos;Child. When it aired, the translation was just a rumor. It got translated and I got the VN and read it. Simple as that

Indeed. I fail to understand how anybody would see a film adaptation would ruin a VN. They're two completely different mediums. People dumpster on HF for not being a faithful adaptation... but who cares? Try to open your narrow mind and find ways to enjoy both. And if that's too difficult for you, then stick to the VN. Films are simply another way of storytelling.
This is great for Mahoyo, as it shows that Nasu hasn't completely forgotten about it. Forget about whether it's a good adaptation or not for a second. A film will bring worldwide recognition to the VN. It means more people will "discover" it. We might get an official localization (I personally doubt it, but who knows). We'll also get more Mahoyo merch, which for me is certainly a good thing. Or, in the best case scenario, maybe the movie(s?) do really well, and Nasu finally gives in and announces Mahoyo 2.
I can't believe people are so hell bent on simply focusing on their own cynical "well the VN is 30+ hours long, how the fuck can they make a good adaptation out of a 2H film" outlook. It's completely moronic.
TLDR; movies don't change the source material. If you think Mahoyo getting a movie is a bad thing, simply don't watch it and stick to the VN. But don't forget to thank the movie if Nasu announces Mahoyo 2 after the films success.

On that note I must ask again: are even sure a movie is happening, or is it just speculation?
I'd save my energy until at least a trailer if the latter's the case.
There is no confirmed movie whatsoever. Merely a registered website that could possibly correspond to one.
If there is anything I learned from the Type Moon fandom, it's never say (or write) what you want. Because Nasu will go the other way, or troll you a decade with Fate spin-offs out the wazoo.
Saying that. Mahou is now a decade old (preorders opened back in Dec 11, geez I'm getting old), and my pessimistic self thinks Nasu has finally decided Fate has been milked enough ie Tsukihime, Melty Blood, and testing the curiosity-waters with Mahou. Then again, I'm pretty out of the loop with fandom now the so I stand to be corrected.

Huh, interesting. If it turns out to be real, I'm all for it. The KnK movies remain one of my favourite anime adaptations ever, so I don't see why they can't make a good Mahoyo anime movie series or something, if I'm being idealistic. If it's just one 2 hour movie that barely scratches the surface of the VN, I'll still watch it, and probably enjoy it at least a little bit. And like others said, at least it would bring more attention to Mahoyo. And if it isn't real, and never happens, I won't lose any sleep, because there's still the VN, which I care more about anyway. Let's not be pessimistic people.
"The world is just another word for the things you value around you, right? That's something I've had since I was born. If you tell me to rule such a world, I already rule it."
Agree on this. Ever since Deen's UBW, I just don't take anime adaptations seriously and just consider them cash grabs and eye candy. I can understand the complaints when it comes to accuracy if it's a work you've previously read and hold very close. It's hard not to make any comparisons.
That said, I'd like to take this chance to say that I find very hypocritical that people shit on HF action scenes for being over the top yet hold KnK in such a high regard when it had some battles that were clearly amped up in comparison with the books(Shiki vs Araya at Ogawa, for example).

It's all just the same as when a remake of something is made and people complain about it RUINING the original. People just fail to see past whatever is in front of them most of the time, and that's why the internet is the way it is. Joyous, really.
To be fair none of the movies' focus were about the action, at most there was probably around a 5 mins action scene in the whole 60 mins film. Meanwhile ever since the Ufotable Fates aired and got super successful, it just seems like both TM and the anime studio are constantly chasing after the big action crowd. Just look at A piece of Blue Glass Moon and how much more over-the-top and lengthier the fight scenes are compared to the original.
Honestly probably because most people didn't read KnK novels, we would gotten same complaint if they did.
I was just rewatching LB and the movie barely have any action outside the einzbern castle section which is about 10 minutes in a 120 minutes movie, not really what i would call the movie focus.
Not saying that's always the case but even that fight was much more understated originally with the sole purpose of showing how ruthless Saber Alter is and how Herc really has no chance against her. Then the anime makes the whole thing into a flashy, beam spamming, castle throwing blockbuster, for better and worse.
this whole thing could be a fucking prank, there's not even a poster or info about studio, it could be JC.staff for all we know.
Deen strikes again.
Actually Deen has done some amazing stuff in the last few years. Visual Flight. Now there's a trainwreck of a studio.
