Finally a movie for this franchise. Hopefully they cast a quality actor to play Snake, and it better not be Matt Damon. Also, I better see a scene with snake crawling in a box.
Oh goddamnit, I didn't have the stock held on HSX and it already exists. Missed out on a 600% dROI
Ah well, it's still well below what it'd make even as a small box office, so in I go.
I would not mind at all if the the movie was a CGI movie similar to FF:Spirits Within. It'd be weird to have anyone but David Hayter's voice for Snake, but if they do go live action, it'll probably still be amazing.
Growing up I wanted a MGS movie. The older I got, the less I wanted one. Mostly because I didn't want the story fucked up and for all my friends and family that never played the game I didn't want them to base it off a shitty movie and think I was nuts for liking it.
Now that it's being made I am optimistic. Just let Kojima write the script himself. Not sure if I would want an original story or for the movie to be based off MGS1 or MGS3. Can see those doing very well if they just dial down the supernatural element so it doesn't confused the audience.
MGS3's ending... I would cry something awful in theaters. baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaw. Man tears of course.
So fuckin hype for this movie. Please god, just let Kojima write the damn thing.
From M Night Shyamalan, the story of super soldier, Snok, and his partner, Rahden's mission to defeat Snok's twin brother, Liqueed.
Srsly tho, I hope they don't fuck this up. :/
I'm just trying to fathom how you could tell an MGS style/relevant plot in a 2hr run time. Would need at least a trilogy.
No one saw Escape from L.A then?
Anyone else see this thread and thought they were in the gaming section? lol
This was a long time coming, now to hold my breath until I see a cast lineup and synopsis.
Just have David Hayter play Snake in a live action movie. I've always thought he looked like Snake anyway and I believe he's done some acting in his career. All that matters is that voice lol.
Also, if the script doesn't have a "METAL GEAR?!" line in it, I will be severely disappointed
Hell, they could just have David Hayter play snake. The dude looks like young snake enough already.
EDIT: Err, beaten while confirming what Hayter looks like again.
Fucking love hayter, but idk how good his acting is. Its certainly campy enough, if any of you have seen guyver 2 (the live action one), but I don't think it fits with a serious movie, which I hope this is. Something along the lines of the expendables, with slightly less humor and slightly more serious tones.
Also I don't think this will be a "No kills, no detections, less than three in movie hours" run of the Shadow Moses incident. That would be pretty fucking boring. Although it will be pretty funny how they do the whole scene where snake gets shot in the chest by a tank and just brushes it off.
I'm going to go ahead and make you all jizz in your pants... Ready? Here... we.. go.
Spoiler: show
^ I WOULD LIKE TO SEE THAT.
Haha this is true.. Just like we were all thinking that while playing the game then you remember back to MGS1 and "oohhh"... Would be weird for people watching that didn't play MGS1.
