Video Games, Movies Blur The Lines

“Video games are among the fastest-growing, most-profitable businesses in the entertainment world. In the United States, domestic sales of video games and consoles generated $10 billion in revenue last year, compared with movie ticket sales of $9.4 billion. But with the exception of a few well-known directors – like George Lucas, who created a series of Star Wars video games, and Andy and Larry Wachowski, who wrote and directed “The Matrix” movies and helped create Matrix games – few in Hollywood have been able to successfully operate in both worlds. But that seems to be changing.”
