: The Marathon Trilogy isn't going anywhere, you can play it whenever you want.
: Movies are just another medium, one which you seem to think is basically
: incompatible with your experience of Marathon -- If so, then there's no
: real point in trying to create a movie if you're going to compromise that
: much. As much as there's the tendency to think of a game that has a movie
: as having "made it," I'm content with having Marathon (and
: updating it via the M:R project). Pop culture would likely not embrace
: Marathon, but diluting its essence to make it appeal more to a mass
: audience just makes it one of a million other generic sci-fi movies.

No one talked about diluting it to make it appeal to the masses. No one talked about diluting it. But changing it is necessary to make it onto the screen, and I have to agree with the earlier posts.
