Netflix’s BioShock Movie Needs To Replicate 1 Key Aspect Of HBO’s The Last Of Us To Succeed

Netflix’s upcoming BioShock movie needs to replicate a key aspect of HBO’s much-loved The Last of Us season 1 in order to succeed as a video game adaptation. Based on 2K Boston’s (later, Irrational Games) 2007 first-person-shooter-meets-RPG of the same name, the BioShock movie is set to take viewers to the underwater, 1940s-built city of Rapture — a supposed utopia for the elite built by individualist business magnate Andrew Ryan. The community for wealthy artists and scientists sits outside the U.S. government’s control, and stands apart from society’s so-called “petty morals.” Ryan’s isolationist model worked for a time.
