Nikki Finke explains why there's been no real talk of a Grand Theft Auto movie

It's because Fox Atomic owns the rights to the Grand Theft Auto movie title - - but their rights are to the 1977 movie Grand Theft Auto, starring, and directed by Ron Howard. According to Nikki, "a supposed legal settlement over the game/movie/title dictates that Rockstar can't make a Grand Theft Auto movie or Corman/Howard/Fox a video game out of the title."

I've actually previously posted the trailer to Howard's Grand Theft Auto.
