Description
Set in the 1920's, The Movies will follow the development of a small film mogul's rise to fame. The player is cast as a faceless movie mogul, who is in charge of developing both the film studio and the films themselves. In short, The Movies will almost be two games wrapped into one. One game has you developing the film studio itself, paying the actors and crew, buying props, and expanding the studio lot. The other has you actually making the movie, by setting up scenes, getting a script, placing actors, and filming the scene. You then string these scenes together and make a film.

Special Features
  • Become a mega-rich studio honcho, calling all the shots and hiring and firing at will. Will you ignore the stars' tantrums? Will you give in to their monstrous egos and allow them to fall in and out of love, gain weight or get plastic surgery? Or will you show them who's boss by ruining careers, crushing dreams and putting yourself first.
  • Handpick the scripts you want to greenlight, watch them being shot or direct the movies yourself. Make the films you love to watch or create brand new masterpieces. Innovate with new technological advancements or let other studios make the investment and ride their coattails.
  • Make comedies, action films, war movies, romances, sci-fi flicks, horror films or anything you choose. Different genres at different times attract different audiences, so are you after a box office smash or is pleasing the critics and winning awards more your scene.
  • Ultimately, you'll be judged by the movies you make. Will you be brave enough to put your movies on the web or share them with friends? Will your movies pick up a nomination and win you a real award? Will this game launch you into an actual movie career? Studio power broker, talent spotter or film director you can be one or all three. That's the magic of The Movies.
  • In sandbox mode, you can focus exclusively on making movies. In story mode, your objective is to build your own studio from the ground up by starting with an empty lot. Now it's your chance to find out if you have what it takes to make it in Hollywood.

      In this game you do control every aspect of you movie studio.
      The game starts in the 20's and runs up to the present day. I have been playing it for hours and am now currently in the mid to late 40's. The actors age, become stars, recieve publicity, start relationships with each other, and retire. It includes award shows every 5 years. Some of which I have won. I have even had the biggest star in the country created by me and working for me. It was a thrill.
      I loved The Sims games both the first edition and The Sims 2. I would highly recommend this game for anyone that liked The Sims. However it does take time to play. You must want a game that is ever changing and will take hours upon hours to play. Nothing is ever the same in it and I must say it is very challenging. Worth the money.
