Do we get to see what is filmed in Get Famous? Movie theatre venue??

I spent a lot of time yesterday researching Get Famous and was a little surprised just how much development they put into acting, hollywood, ect as the main focus of this expansion. Yet they seemed to have missed one incredibly simple and yet stupidly important aspect of the movies and becoming a star or "getting famous".

The actual movies. Or movie theatres for that matter. I mean do we actually get to go to the movies or watch your sims on some form of screen after they've made it?

I can't seem to find any info about this. I think it would be really cool to watch our sims after on tv or go to the movies to watch it with other sims.

Plus with all those camera's around in the trailes, do we actually get a camera to film in-game with? Like they've added 1st person camera now, please tell me thats to support a camera so we can make our own movies in-game like in the Sims 3.

This whole question seems kinda of weird actually, because it seems so obvious to an expansion pack about making movies...not to feature a lot where or way Sims can go to watch them. And you know, get famous.

Yet I can't seem to find any sort of theatre in the new town or lot for our sims to visit. For a expansion pack literally focused on film making and getting famous...of which the end result is achieved by people GOING to the movies to watch your actors perform (i'd assume) ....there is...none?

So how do sims get famous if people can't go watch their movies exactly?

Please don't tell me they didn't include this because theres a stuff pack with a giant big screen tv...its not the same as going to a venue designated as a movie theatre. They could have designed a new "screen" just to show your sims perform in movies for example. Plus they could have included new mechanics like going for a date to it or even expanding a new film critic career.

Am I wrong? Is there a new movie theatre venue with this expansion? It seems like a huge oversight not to include for an expansion all about making movies...
  • That's a bummer! Would have been so cool to set up small outdoor theaters in community lots like parks or to be able to host your own movie screenings for friends, family or fans.
  • Does anybody know if we at least get to record our own movies like with the video camera in the Sims 3? Especially with the new point of view camera it seems such an obvious feature to include with this expansion.

    You can record, but you can’t see it.

    Wait...what? Whats the point of recording if you can't view it in some form in or out of game??


    When you record in game with it creates a file for you to watch or edit in the game files. I think they meant you cant watch your recording in game

    Are you talking about with the drone and the stream desk because that's what I was talking about and I don't think that's true. Unless you're talking about the in game recorder which I am not.

    In Sims 2 you were able set it up (by placing the video file in a specific location) so that a video of your choice could play on the sim's TVs. I don't know that this option is available for Sims 4 :neutral:

    But you can do Sims 4 machinima - record in-game footage. Just don't think you can view it in game.

    It'd have been cool if they gave Sims a VHS tape of their acting after every completed movie that you could watch at home like they did with Generations and that recording camera. Or at least when you watch a movie on TV it'd feature new scenes taken from Get Famous.


    Is VHS still a thing?
