I'd ask if this is a joke, but I know the answer already. But hey, we've had a $150 million movie based on the Battleship board game. What's next? A movie about the Rubik's Cube? A movie about Slinky?
"Since the 1950s, Magic 8 Ball has inspired imagination, suspense and intrigue across generations. This iconic toy has a built-in connection with fans and untapped potential for storytelling. There are no partners better suited to tell the Magic 8 Ball story in collaboration with Mattel Films than Jeff Wadlow and Blumhouse Productions, whose unique approach to the thriller genre has captivated audiences worldwide and has gained widespread accolades."
"As fans of Mattel and their iconic brands, we're looking forward to bringing Magic 8 Ball, one of their most celebrated toys, to life, and playing against expectations in doing so. We look forward to partnering with Mattel Films to put this project on the fast track to the big screen and create a memorable experience for moviegoers."

And then they can do Slinky, Silly Putty, and Etch-a-Sketch.

I think one time the Chutes and Ladders game was going to be a movie.

A Spirograph movie would be cool.

Honest to God Hollywood is so afraid to take a risk they will literally make a movie about a damn Magic 8 Ball because it's a FAMILIAR object.
Anything they think can be nostalgic and recognized so it will automatically put some butts in a seat.
Time to pop the titty out tinsel town and venture out of the Nostalgic Baby Crib.

A lot of people here are making fun of this but the saddest thing is Hollywood had become so creatively bankrupt that honestly a horror movie centered around a magic 8 ball is almost genius...sort of.
