The plot won't have fucking anything to do with anything that ever happened in the games. It'll just be some generic save the world from an evil wizard dude, probably MAYONG played by Jeremy Irons. Insert random teen hero to represent us as the "player", whose love interest will be Firiona Vie played by some ditzy blonde.

I also expect to see a gnome or dwarf used poorly for comic relief.

That's about it.
They could make a generic movie doing that, but what if they played off of the players' memories, and was written from the get-go for that? Unlikely, but imagine if they did things in the movie that made the viewers think, "Oh no, a train!" and they smile remembering their own experiences like that. I think it would be funny/fun and could go for a different approach if they stay away from the generic-epic-storyline.
