One of the more intriguing titles on the horizon is The Movies, another good idea form the folks at Peter Molyneaux's studio. The maker of Fable and Black & White is giving the slimy underbelly of studio pictures a whirl. This preview points out a few details that will certainly make us try out the demo when it arrives. For instance, as the head of the studio you'll have to keep your actors happy as they prep for their close-up. This doesn't only mean giving them what they want, it means giving them what they need — including Hard Love, like therapy and drug rehab. It's always been a dream of mine to throw a movie star in the bum house for the night to cool him down. The character creation tools also look more robust than just about anything seen up to this point. The Movies is shaping up well. Hopefully, it will be better than Troy.
