Metal Gear Solid movie coming, care of Columbia Pictures

[quik1987]

You'll have to be more specific in your snide commentary the next time you think to call Metal Gear Solid a movie. There will be a proper film based on the popular Konami property, said X-Men and Spider-Man producer Avi Arad, who announced the project at a special Metal Gear Solid 25th anniversary event in Japan.

Metal Gear Solid designer and figurehead Hideo Kojima hinted at a film project back in March, suggesting that the franchise in its current state wouldn't be quite compatible with Hollywood. The extent of his participation is currently unclear, as is the film's production schedule, plot and likelihood of relying on nanobots to explain all the weird-*** things that happen.

The film will come courtesy of Columbia Pictures, and be praised and lambasted in equal measure for its use of 40-minute long "audience participation scenes."

I was going to post this. It has a lot of potential, but unfortunately, I think they will make it a trilogy and fail hardcore.

Funny story

Metal Gear image inspired by Kyle Reese from Terminator.

Christian Bale was in Terminator Salvation as John Connor, the son of Kyle Reese.

At last, its about time this is in the works. Can't wait for the official trailer, aside from the various cheesy trailers thats been around for awhile

Big Boss = Kurt Russell
I don't know what he looks like today though.

I am interested but don't have high hopes. Video games haven't been made into a decent movie yet.

I'm pretty sure Bale has said he would be interested in playing Snake

 

[leannsupreme]

If they do this right...

[snowboardingpanda]

Gary Oldman is one of the most versatile actors ever.. Him as Ocelot would be

They will screw it up the moment it isnt rateAnd,bc

And it will become an action movie instead of stealth

Escape from new york was far from a trash movie man

This, but seeing as how metal gears strongest aspect is the story I think it will be fine. The plots already been written for them, and it's excellent.

Who came up with the idea of Christian Bale playing John Conner? 

 

[tr1ll]

Yall know, like, 99% of Metal Gear characters are nods to old action movie characters and celebirties, right?

As far as the movie goes..

I'm KNOW Hollywood IS going to totally whip its *** with the story.

 

[harlemtothebronx]

This will be garbage. Just another money grab.

Also, Escape from New York and Escape from LA are both awesome.

Christopher Nolan needs to direct this film

The only thing I care about is getting those 25th anniversary items. You have to first enter a raffle and then if you get picked you could buy it. Not sure how I feel about that but I NEED that Art Book package with over 800 pages of MGS art.
