Toy Story writers hint at FarmVille movie

We’ve already seen FarmVille invade our Facebook feeds and 7/11 branches around the country (for those in the States), and now it looks like there might be a FarmVille movie in the works. Speakng to IGN, two of the writers that worked on Toy Story dropped hints about a Zynga collaboration that they’re working towards.

During an interview regarding their work on upcoming video game Skylanders Spyro’s Adventures, Alec Sokolow and Joel Cohen, both writers on the original Toy Story movie, assured the site that they’re still working on movies and highlighted Zynga as one company they’re in talks with.

“So, yes, we will continue writing movies. We are also working on several new and very exciting opportunities,” they said. “We’re in conversations with Zynga to do something with one of their brands. Can’t really say too much on that front yet, but ‘Old MacDonald’ didn’t have a factory, if you get our drift.”

Well, when you put it like that, it’s hard not to get your drift, guys. IGN reports that FarmVille-developer Zynga refused to comment.

As much as we’re not fans of FarmVille here, the prospect of a FarmVille movie doesn’t seem so bad. We’re picturing an animated farm movie for kids, and it kind of makes sense to us. Would you go and watch a FarmVille movie? Ugh…

    I can’t believe someone came up to such an idea. Filming the comics, filming the books, filming someone’s true life stories, making the computer games to the films but why on earth someone would want to film a movie about Farmville?! 
    I myself am a big fan of this game and I even spend real money there. It is the only game I can play during a break at work and it helps me to relax. I use Paysafecard prepaid cards so that my husband doesn’t find the costs on our account statement – he wouldn’t understand that – but I wouldn’t go to see this movie. I’m sure it will be much worse than 2012 or ‘the day after tomorrow’. Please, God, save us from this stupid movie!
