Does the Metal Gear Solid movie have the potential to become pure kino? Jordan Vogt-Roberts seems pretty autistically focused on the little "Kojima-like" details which sounds promising but it can also be the film's downfall if it becomes too cringe, as are most vidya adaptations.
Does the Metal Gear Solid movie have the potential to become pure kino...

Not unless it features Kiefer Sutherland going full operator. Who even is this Oscar Allen guy anyway doesn’t he play for West Coast?
>muh movie adaptation
I fucking hate normies so much.
I like the passion between the actor and this director. It sounds like they really love the MGS series.
If I had to nitpick I wish it was someone else who played Snake but it's whatever.
Shut up faggot hella hardcore MGS fans have been wanting an MGS game before you dropped your balls.
>Oscar Allen guy
LMFAO Oscar Allen.
How the fuck do you do a Metal Gear Solid movie without it being 20 hours long? There's probably three hours worth of cutscenes just getting up to Psycho Mantis.
>MGS fans have been wanting an MGS game
Yes, you're right, they want a game, not a movie.
>How the fuck do you do a Metal Gear Solid movie without it being 20 hours long?
How do you think they made movies based off of books like Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter? They've always cut out the unimportant bits or they do a trilogy. And they're considered one of the best adapted book to movie franchises of all time
Fucking typo retard. It was supposed to say MOVIE not game. Jesus christ.
Oscar Isaac is such a good actor, but man he gets/picks the worst roles
MGS1 is like 6 hours long, strip out a lot of the pure gameplay segments, cut out some unnecessary action scenes and i'm sure you could get a 2hr movie out of it while keeping the core parts
Sounds like you are the retard here. If the director isn't getting pure kino ideas from Kojima then he can fuck off.
Last we heard they dont even have a story yet. It's not going to be just a retelling of the original game.
>Jordan Vogt-Roberts
why would they give mgs to this guy?
>Shut up faggot hella hardcore MGS fans have been wanting an MGS game before you dropped your balls.
No, hardcore fans don't want a 90 minute adaptation of a 20 hour movie, retard. Film is a terrible medium that exists solely to squeeze money out of dumb normies ecstatic to escape their boring lives for a few hours every weekend.
Fuck off nerd. He is getting ideas from Kojima they occasionally tweet at each other and other means of communication..
>Last we heard they dont even have a story yet.
They do. It's been going through rewrites like any other Hollywood script. Just nothing yet.
No, you sound underage. Over the years MGS fans have been BEGGING for an MGS movie. You're just a contrarian zoomer retard.
>Over the years MGS fans have been BEGGING for an MGS movie
proof?
Should have been a 3d animated mgr movie
I want Kojima's review of the movie more than anything, really. Is he even allowed to talk about MGS anymore or nah?
Since the early 2000's you dumb fuck. What source? I just hear a ton of MGS fans wanting one for the longest time. Stop acting like a faggot. I'm a super ultra mega fan I know what the fuck I'm talking about.
>posts a youtube video
nah bro, that's not a good source. give me actual die-hard MGS fans, not gullible normies such as yourself.
Unless the movie literally embraces the weird as fuck anime-ness from the game's plot, it will not succeed.
It needs to be a movie that comes off hammy, over-the-top, self aware, and filled with pretentious fart sniffing monologues about the dangers of nuclear war. This is a game with vampires, robot ninjas, flying psychics, and nuke shooting mechs and the movie needs to reflect that.
Read through the comments is that not enough MGS fans wanting a movie? You're so retarded. You're the only person who doesn't want a movie. Fuck off zoom zoom.
unless its like 5-6 hours long or more it wouldn't feel like the shadow moses incident really did
Youtube users are zoomers or normies such as yourself who are glad to say whatever gives them a higher comment score. You still haven't given me proof by the way.
No, becuase the game takes advantage of the video game medium to do things that a movie can’t. Video games are the evolution of the storytelling medium, and going backward would just result in an inferior story.
Oscar Isaac is an ugly manlet. He can't play the role of genetically engineered clone of the legendary soldier.
it'll never work, metal gear is unfilmable
how do you do a metal gear solid movie without the context of mg1 and 2? It doesn't make any sense, too much important information is told through pure dialogue in the codec.
And your opinion doesn't matter because you're posting on Yea Forums. See how you sound? Stop acting like a faggot.
No, FANS do not want movies. These games are already movies in video game form, and adaptations would only be worse. Leave your echo chamber.
>comes off hammy, over-the-top, self aware
Fuck off. I want the movie to be as genuine as possible, I don't want a fucking Twin Snakes adaptation.
But again, why would we need to see that again when we already saw it in the game, and better yet, we played through that in the game. Just going back and watching it instead of experiencing it is a lesser experience. There’s no way any video game can be adapted, or better yet, devolved into a movie, and certainly not one that leans so heavily on the video game as a medium.
MGS is literally based on movies
>No, FANS do not want movies.
Yes they do. You live under a rock and you're not a real MGS fan.
>how do you do a metal gear solid movie without the context of mg1 and 2
?
most people that played solid never played those games.
Shekelstein will make it Marvel-esque. This is what the film industry is. You think you want this, but you don't.
right... its going through rewrites, as in, no story yet. its not done. they havent settled on a story.
I wasn't convinced about the casting until I saw this image. Oscar has a fantastic Solid Snake image.mag2w
Means literally nothing.
Likewise faggot.

that's twin snakes
metal gear solid 1 was actually pretty grounded in plausibility. the dialogue was also realistic and not over the top, which was kino.
from my perspective metal gear solid series ended with 1. the rest of the games are just some weird metanarrative weirdness.
>movie
they already fucked it up, as usual
No, they don't. A very, very small portion of the normiest of fans want film adaptations to extend their søyjaws at. Fans of the video games do not. My copy of MGS1, no, of MGS4, is older than you are.
That is genuine. You can't have a genuine MGS movie without addressing all the stupid fucking over-the-top shit in the plot. No one will take that seriously so may as well go balls-to-the-wall with it and play it out.
>Shekelstein will make it Marvel-esque. This is what the film industry is.
Yeah, and that's why I stopped watching modern day garbage and I still go back to 70s-90s movies.
Who would play Likwid to Oscar's Solid?
Yes they do. I'm 31. I played the original MGS games I played Metal Gear the shitty copy on NES. You don't know shit about me and you don't know the fanbase. I've been hopping to MGS message boards since the 2000's I know what the fuck I'm talking about. The entire basis of MGS games is based around cinematic movies. Fans. Want. An. MGS movie. Enough said.
never ever leaving development hell. just watch die hard and the like. pic related was the most recent mgesque kino
>I'm 31
Sure, and I'm age 99.
This. So much this.
It can work. Look at Michael Bay's Transformers.
dual role obviously
I don't think either of those things would be relevant in making a super soldier. Snake is neither ugly nor manlet but the criteria you listed don't include actually looking like snake
You will never fit in, faggot
Based.
No, MGS games played their stories completely straight and only had a handful of references that was mostly gameplay related shit.
You know what? I changed my mind. I hope they make the movie so fuckers like you can get what they deserve. But do me a favor. When it ends up sucking and staining the franchise, do us all a favor and go fuck yourself.
I'm 33 and have played all the games at launch and still own all the games physically. FANS do not want a film adaptation of MGS. The people who've talked about a film adaptation have been ridiculed for years. They literally want a soulless Hollywood cash grab to relive their childhood. Fans of the games don't want this. You're not a fan. Never have been. Now, run along and watch whatever the latest capeshit is as you visualize MGS on the big screen.
Lmao, nigger is desperate enough that he's posting on two different devices.
The franchise is dead. It's no longer making games. How would it hurt the franchise into making an MGS movie? And besides you're completely wrong. Hideo Kojima has and always wanted an MGS movie to happen. Stop living under a rock. You don't know shit about MGS. Stop larping.
If the MGS movie played the game's story completely straight, robot ninjas and pants pissing otaku's and all, literally everyone will shit on it and realize how retarded the stories in the games are.
You know what, actually the movie should adapt the story as accurately as possible. It will reveal to the world ho much of a hack Kojima is even more.
MGS1 and 2 could be done in 2 hours each easy. Each game only takes place in like 10 hours
>literally everyone will shit on it and realize how retarded the stories in the games are.
Good, it further proves that hollywood loving retards are lame. They have ruined movies completely with their garbage tastes, now everything is quippy MCU shlock
>actually pretty grounded
>Alaskan man wielding a GAU8 with his own hands
>an actual flying telekinetic psychic
>dead man reanimated with a cyborg ninja suit that can, even temporarily, withstand the forces of an approximately 505 ton nuclear walking mech
I'm not saying Twin Snakes DIDNT up the batshit factor five times, but calling the original pretty grounded is a straight up lie. It's pure contemporary (at the time) military fantasy.
user, Kojima makes movie games and is obsessed with movies. What he wants is irrelevant. You don't want an abridged Hollywood version of an existing movie. Only a small portion of "fans" have sperged about this over the years. Muh Christian Bale and so on. You're deluded if you think this is something the majority of the fanbase wants as a whole. Again, leave your echo chamber. You're living in your own little world.
>You don't know shit about me
Let's return to an earlier statement you made. Try to be more self-aware.
you weren't there man
