What is Cosplay?
While there is no set in stone definition, the word ‘Cosplay’ usually refers to the act of dressing in a costume to recreate the appearance of a character from a work of fiction. Popular forms of cosplay involve donning the outfit of popular anime, video game, or comic book characters.
Many cosplayers create their own costumes by sewing clothing, crafting armor and props from a number of materials. Others choose to buy ready made costumes from retailers specializing in cosplay, or commission the work of tailors or other cosplay hobbyists.

Why Video Game Adaptations are Hollywood’s Next Cash Cow
The intersection between “gamers” and film and TV enthusiasts is as close to a circle as the most competent draftsman could conjure. It is strange, then, that Hollywood producers and executives have struggled to competently capitalize on this ready made market. For decades, the prevailing and somewhat successful strategy was to commission game studios and developers to create a tie-in video game to release day and date, with its live action counterpart. The idea being that the hype surrounding the release of the film, usually on opening weekends, would propel the licensed video game to similar sales numbers and maybe even critical acclaim.
