Gaming🎮 I'm not sure I believe those Kingdom Hearts movie rumours, but if one does happen, I'm begging, keep it simple

As they do, every once in a while, there are some rumours floating around at the moment about a Kingdom Hearts movie. Both The DisInsider, who generally typically shares details about behind-the-scenes go-ons at Disney, and Daniel Richtman, a supposed industry insider, have claimed a film adaptation of Kingdom Hearts is potentially in the works, though nothing has been greenlit just yet. I've not heard of The DisInsider before this, though I had heard of Richtman, and it seems like in both cases their records are spotty at best, so I'm not placing any bets just yet.

Still, it could happen, as video game movie adaptations seem to be all the rage these days, and with a world like Kingdom Hearts (i.e., one that literally features a crossover of several beloved Disney IPs), there's absolutely potential money to be made somewhere along the line. Whether anything does end up happening, we obviously won't know until it does, but in the event that Disney does push forward one, I have a request- nay, a demand: don't overcomplicate things.

Right off the bat I want to be clear on something. I am, in fact, one of those freaky Kingdom Heart fans who knows a bit too much about it, and could actually explain the lore to you if pressed. I live for it, even, though the main draw is the heart (pardon the pun) the series exudes in ways most people don't appreciate. Yet even I'm not foolish enough to suggest that the series hasn't gotten a bit… difficult, to put it lightly, for new players to get into.
