METAL GEAR SOLID MOVIE?

[Otty]

I remember this scene in of of the Terminator movies (I guess it's in Terminator 2, but I'm not sure.), couple of guy's had to destroy or flee from this huge machine which looked like a Metal Gear, and the place they were at looked like a fortress.

That would be my MGS movie. ;D

My MG movie would be all CG animated and not released in theatres.

My Metal Gear movie already exists. In fact, there are three of them. Metal Gear Solid, MGS2 and MGS3.

i'm really, really trying to be optimistic about this. it appears they refer to kojima as the director of the film...

[A.G.]

As long as they use "The Rock" as a solid reference on how to make the film, it will work. I also thing that Kojima just might have some pull in this. He always wanted to work on movies, this is his chance. Using Kojima and "The Rock" are the two ways to make this movie work.

My MG movie woud be...oh wait but George Lucas has killed his trilogy.

Anoter confirmation from Hideo-san himself at E3:

LOS ANGELES--When excited attendees left yesterday's Konami press conference, they were handed a catalog for Studio Kojima's forthcoming slate of games. However, many didn't know it, since the brochure was a clever imitation of the newsletter handed out each day at of the Electronic Entertainment Expo.

On the front of the Kojima catalog was a "breaking news" box, which bore the headline "Solid Snake...On the silver screen?" The blurb below it read, "In a late-breaking surprise announcement, director Hideo Kojima revealed that his most famous creation--Metal Gear Solid--is getting the live-action treatment."

Given the semicomic nature of the fake E3 newsletter/Kojima Productions catalog, many thought the story was a joke. However, on the last page of the pamphlet was a page-long article on the project, which showed that Kojima was dead serious when he made the announcement.

After assuring readers at length that German director Uwe Boll will not have anything to do with the project, as rumored, Kojima talked about the film. "I have received many offers to adapt Metal Gear Solid. It has taken a long time, but we have finally settled on an arrangement," said the revered designer. "False facts aside, a movie project is underway. I have finalized a Class-A contract with a party in Hollywood."


Close-up of movie announcement blurb.
Kojima did not mention the name of the party, a release date, or any potential directors or stars. However, ever since the original PlayStation Metal Gear Soild, the English-language dialogue of game hero Solid Snake has been voiced by Hollywood figure David Hayter. Though a prolific voice actor, Hayter has enjoyed greater success as a screenwriter, with credits for X-Men, X2, and the forthcoming Watchmen under his belt.

No Uwe is good news. Now lets just hope that this Class-A contract will be worth it for Hideo.

Kojima better be f...cking directing it.
