Dear God...Avi Arad produced Daredevil, Elektra, Spiderman 3 and The Hulk movies. This doesn't look like a good track record. Pray he has a good director/writer to carry this for him because his record looks really cruddy. But hey he also did The Bots Master so maybe we can get a "hip" version of Snake Eater out of this thing for fun.

There's really no "track record" here. Avid Arad is a businessman producer. He puts his name on films because he has the connections to put things together and get the funding to get them made. Nothing more. If you're looking for a creative trend when it comes to Hollywood producers, there are none. It's all about the business.

Until there is a director and a script, this means nothing for the MGS movie. Nothing good, nothing bad.

this show is not Breaking Bad why is it not Breaking Bad? it should be Breaking Bad dammit Breaking Bad
Yeah...only one of the most popular comic book characters in the world. While a game series like Metal Gear has sold millions of copies, it's nowhere near being the household name that Batman is.

So now, just because NOLAN has made 2 critically acclaimed series (inception + batman), he can no longer go back to MAKING MOVIES without the same level of fame?

He doesn't like challenges?


I want Jackman as Snake, totally fits the bill.

So you're only here to shit up and troll the thread?

Idiot.
I'm not trolling.

Kojima listing off a bunch of people he likes in a massive industry holds no weight to anything really unless he says they're working on it.

It sounds like he just said "I like Hollywood, this is what I like" with no connection to the project at all. Pretty bad idea to get hopes up, which is exactly what he's trying to do. This is Movie Industry 101.
 
Sony bought the rights to Spider-man and what looks like MGS now

Marvel has their own Studios

Fox has their own studios.

Marvel is going to work a collab with Sony (columbia)

Marvel is not involved. Avi Arad use to work at Marvel Pictures, but he is independent now. This movie has nothing to do with Marvel.

Why? You do realize he directed a movie based on a comic book character, right?

Batman has a way richer and more illustrious source material to draw from, and way more people give a shit about batman than Metal Gear.

Plus comic book movies are huge business, while video game movies for the most part are a joke.

This was pretty much guaranteed. They did a fucking iPhone game to try and cash in on the early craze in that hardware. I'm surprised it took this long.

News to me brother, I thought he was still there.

Okay, so only Sony is behind this movie, Nolan can come over!
