THE MOVIES vs THE SIMS 3

[AmandaMarie]

I bought the game "The Movies" because it seemed like the sims. I was wondering if anyone thought of mashing the two together. May TS3 have movie stars in town, will Sims have reputations to uphold, will there be paparazzi, how about reality shows? If this is added, it would be amazing!!

That would be pretty cool. I've lost my "The Movies" game; I miss it so much.
But haha, the only reason I bought it was because it seemed like The Sims and I'm obsessed over anything about The Sims.
The Sims still conquers The Movies in any aspect of gaming entertainment no matter what.
Oh sorry, back on topic!
Putting the two together would be like putting sugar and brown sugar together. Fun, but pointless.
All we need is a Sims 2 Superstar and VIOLA! Your wish has come true.

Hmm...

Well anyways, I liked th idea of better movie making in The Sims 3

*cough*

dateline= Wrote:The Sims 3: Movie Magic

Objects: Community lot items-movie props, movie camera, modeling stage setup, and backdrops. Home items- movie theater screen (when on community lot, plays only movies, 6 squares wide, 2 floors high)

Description: Movie Magic goes father into the movie making part of Super Star, but also goes deeper into the other fame jobs. It’s also it easier to make movies of your sims. When you film your sim doing something it will go to the new movie chip collector. Like with snapshots, the chip collector stores all your chips of different things. In there you can put the clips together and add effects to make a movie. When you are done sorting the clips you can turn it into a movie. It will be sent to the DVD rack so your sims can watch it. It can also be sent to your simpage’s movie list.
To make good movies you need to use special movie options (like boolprop) that can be activated by a movie camera. With this on, sims have new acting options with other sims, objects, and themselves. But you must have high skills to do special movie options. Make sure to use costumes like ones of aliens and robots to make sense of the movie. Another good way to make a good movie is to use movie props. Your sims also need to have high-level skills to use these props. Only stars can use the special acting options and the props.
To become a star you need to find an agent. You can find one by using the phone, star magazine, or the computer. When your sim has an agent and is featured in a production it will become a star. This will become your sims job, but you will sometimes have to go with it to work
Agents help keep up your fame up. The better the agent (and pay) is, the better they are of keeping the sims fame up. When your agent quits or you fire them you only have a short period of time before you lose your sims fame and lose stardom so find a new agent fast. Agents will also request (computer generated) movies for your sim to take part, if you don’t want to make your own movie.
Every time a movie is put on the selves and you’re in it, your fame will increase along with your paycheck. When a sim watches a movie and likes it, the sim will become a fan. The sim would have aspirations like watch a movie with this star in it, talk to this star, get autograph of this star, ECT. So the more fans you have the more fame you get.
Some other fame careers are modeling and music. They work primarily the same in which you have to look good, have skill, and have an agent. Every time you make an album or be featured on a cover, you fame goes up.

[glow=red,2,300]I have the movies but it doesn't work, and what ur describing sounds likesuperstar from TS1 ;D[/glow]

I don't have the movies, but i saw it in a store and im like "SIMS"
then i looked closer and it wasn't.
It looked pretty good so i researched it, and the screenshots just didn't intrerest me. :-\
They did kinda "mash the two together" in TS1 with superstar. That would be fun i guess :-\

[simkid]

I have played both. The Movies wasn't very good. Maybe an EP would work better. Or careers in the Movie industry.

[size=10pt]As the posts I am seeing in accordance to my thread. Yes, I didn't like the Movies, and didn't play superstar on TS1 so I didnt get the enjoyment. But maybe reputation in town for doing things like cheating, ect would be interesting to see.[/size]
