An Angry Birds Movie?

After a long wait, a movie for the hit app has an official release date. Sony has promised an Angry Birds movie for at least two years now, but here we go! Angry Birds has been officially confirmed for a summer 2016 release. My only concern is that the targeted release date may be too late. The game was released by Rovio in 2009, and currently, not a whole lot of news has been coming up recently about the app franchise. By 2016, the game will already be seven years old. The 8 year old kids that adored the game might just be too old to think that the game is cool. The angry bird plush toys have even died down in sales recently. Michael Bay was rumored to direct, but now directing Transformers 4 and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, that isn't as likely. Hopefully the movie will regain audiences and fans, considering that the idea isn't as likely as a movie about Call of Duty. I think that an angry birds movie would be best as an animated movie. Still, the idea is almost as unrealistic as a Minecraft movie!
