Kurt Wimmer adapting Metal Gear Solid.

The streak of bad video game adaptations continues.

Perfect!

Ryuhei Kitamura or it didn't happen.

**D_Davis** · 03-13-2008, 09:09 PM

Well, look on the bright side...

The dialog and acting can't get any worse than it already is in the game.

The movie will probably have more gameplay as well.

**number8** · 03-13-2008, 10:43 PM

I'd mark out over Kurt Wimmer, but then I realized that the greatness of TV shows are rarely because of their creators.

**Dukefrukem** · 03-17-2008, 12:34 PM

Whoa whoa whoa... can we wait and see what happens with Mark Walberg as Max Payne first?

They should pass out controllers to theatre audiences. People will be holding them wondering when in the hell it is they'll be able to play.

They should give them controller 2, so the fight scenes can be quick and anti-climactic.

I should write a script and submit it.

seriously

I just received an email from Kotaku editor, Brian Ashcraft, who originally spoke with Konami’s Aki Saito in person and here’s what he said: “Hey Hunter, [Saito] said Paul Thomas Anderson, not just Paul Anderson, but specifically ‘Thomas.’ Hope that helps!” I just asked Brian again if Saito possibly meant to say director Paul W.S. Anderson (Resident Evil), and he added, “Saito’s handling the movie negotiations, so I’d assume he knew.” The awesome madness continues! More as it develops…

Get out of here, Konami! At a press conference for this summer’s Metal Gear Solid 4, Konami’s Aki Saito, who’s apparently hands-on with the Metal Gear feature film adaptation, told a Kotaku reporter that 1.) the franchise’s feted creator, Hideo Kojima, will not be directing the movie version and 2.) director Paul Thomas Anderson is a possibility…

At first I thought this was a crazy rumor, but then I read another article earlier on G4 saying that Hideo Kojima has already approached PTA and said that he is interested.

I dunno what to believe....

**Grouchy** · 05-14-2008, 02:32 AM

Well, those who were wondering where PTA's career would go after There Will Be Blood already have an answer.

**Milky Joe** · 05-14-2008, 02:36 AM

That would be the single greatest thing ever, but no way am I getting my hopes up.

**Ezee E** · 05-14-2008, 05:26 AM

If it were true, it'd be on the website cigarettesandredvines which knows all things PTA.

It isn't. So no.

Amy Adams to play Meryl

What's wrong with Christian Bale?

**Milky Joe** · 09-02-2008, 05:41 AM

I don't want to live in a world where one actor plays Batman, John Connor, AND Solid Snake. The guy is just in everything these days. His performances are starting to have the same effect on me as saying a word over and over again does. Besides, Snake is older.

I've only played the first "MGS" game, but that gave me the impression he was probably 30-35. Which would fit for Bale.

The guy's a good actor. If we're gonna have one person play several big roles, I can't think of anyone better to do it.

Though I always thought Hugh Jackman had the right look for Solid Snake.

But yeah, I really don't care about this movie. 'Tis not a game I've held in high regard since I replayed it last year.

**Grouchy** · 09-02-2008, 02:21 PM

Come on, meg, even you have to admit that having Bale play every cool badass in the world of fiction is a bit of overkill.

It's unfair to the rest of the actors.

**Scar** · 09-02-2008, 03:09 PM

I love Bale and all, but he's got more then enough on his plate right now.

And I vote NO for Hugh Jackman, too.

He was actually the first actor that came to mind when thinking Snake.

I always used to root for Val Kilmer back when I gave a shit about the MGS film adaptation.

too bad he's wicked fat now

**Morris Schæffer** · 09-02-2008, 04:57 PM

Kurt Russell as an older snake would be cool although that might be, uh, typecasting?

I think Hugh Jackman is a good choice. What about Russell Crowe?

Dennis Quaid!!!
