Me too, I’m currently replaying MGS1 on pc at the moment.

FWIW, i know some poeple hate mgs4, but i thought that was a great end to the series. yeah, a little bit of BB's story still wasn't quite fleshed out with mgsv (peace walker and portable ops helps but still...), or at least it didnt quite scratch the itch for me, but at least we got a solid (heh) ending for solid snake and company with mgs4 so what can ya do

but still, the hype behind an upcoming mgs title is like no other. i still contend this is the best trailer of any piece of media i can think of... the feels are intense lol

I'm not sure how you could cram any one of the MGS games into anything short of a mini-series. I'm not sure why it has to be a movie. Everything has to fit within 3 hrs, but more likely a lot less than that. I personally don't think games translate very well into movie. Make them mini-series, please.

This definitely needs the mini series treatment. Way too much to cram into a 2-2.5 hour movie and do the source material any real justice.

Kurt Russell Deepfake or:

i hope its not a 2 Hour movie with Kiefer Sutherland as Snake, getting kiled in the first 20 minuets then Justin Beiber/Raiden fucking up the whole movie, John Goodman as Fatman

 

[Gavin Stevens]

Nah, let’s go with Tom Holland as Snake and Marky Mark as Ocelot. Only way to make this work IMO.

But instead we're getting an Uncharted movie, which is just more Indiana Jones.

I'm now classifying the fading of Metal Gear Solid as an industry shame, to be placed alongside the Dreamcast, Madden beating NFL2k, and Spies vs Mercs not blowing up.

Humanity is a vile creature.

This very strange for me, entire selling point of Uncharted series that has big "Hollywood movie vibe", it feels really pointless making movie out of it.

What I really want to see is a Bioshock movie that doesn't really follow the story from the game but instead its center around a family moving to Rapture and see down fall of the city through their eyes.

this is awesome

it took me a second to see it but the reflection of big boss in the water (middle bottom of picture) is actually solid from mgs1 (i think)

 

[Bolivar687]

That's one hell of a triptych.

Even if the movie fails to get going I'm glad we got all this awesome artwork.

 

[RAIDEN1]

They are taking their sweet ass time in getting this together, the movie should have come out back in 2008 to commemorate the release of the PS1 game, they could have gone for a CG look, like the Final Fantasy movie did...

Imagine a MGS2 movie:
*The image on screen freezes and a codec window pops up*
Crazy Colonel Campell: Attention! Everyone must leave the theater immediately! This is not a drill. Please leave your seats and proceed towards the non-emergency exits in an orderly fashion. Leave your popcorn and soda behind. A cinema employee will be waiting for you with further instructions. Once again: This is not a drill! Leave the theater immediately!
*Window closes and the film starts playing again*
I would pay money to see the audience reactions!

This movie will never happen.

Damn, hearing David Hayter as Snake always gets me so excited.

Silent Hill and Uncharted happened. Why not?

 

[Falcs]

Silent Hill and Uncharted happened. Why not?

I just don't think it'll happen. It's been "in the works" for like 15 years.

I'd say Uncharted can have the sort of success Tomb Raider did. Only other video game turned movie that had any success (that I can think of) is Resident Evil and that seemed to stray pretty far away from the original canon. Uncharted could be great but Tom Holland is the wrong choice. He's far too scrawny to play the role properly.
