Adventure Time Magic: The Gathering Deck: Unflooped

Posted in: Today's Chili

Redditor The_Stoney_Badger’s friend put together this Magic: The Gathering deck. It’s a red token deck, nothing too fancy… except his friend replaced the art on the cards with appropriate images from Adventure Time. Metamagical!

Just to be clear, these are not made up cards. The_Stoney_Badger’s friend printed screenshots from the cartoon and pasted them over existing Magic cards. He also drew scenes from Adventure Time‘s classic Card Wars episode into a playing mat.

Magic: The Gathering Film Franchise Coming from Fox

Posted in: Today's Chili

Magic: The Gathering fans have something to get excited about now. It looks like Fox is adapting the game into a film. According to THR, “20th Century Fox has closed a deal to acquire the screen rights to the hugely popular fantasy card game from Hasbro and will develop the property with an eye to launch a massive franchise on the scale of Harry Potter and The Lord of the Rings.”

More good news is that it’s going to have some hands-on involvement from Wizards of the Coast president Greg Leeds and Hasbro CEO Brian Goldner. So that should be a good thing, though I can’t help but have the feeling that this could be just another terrible game franchise adaptation. Anyone who has been around the block knows what I mean.

Fox producer Simon Kinberg, who worked on both the X-Men and Fantastic Four universes, will work closely with Hasbro in developing the franchise, so hopefully that will help.
