Do videogames count too? if so i wish they would make a Metal Gear starring Clive owen
Regarding who directs it i would say Michael bay cause no other director comes to mind lol

The game already is practically a movie and it's full of government cover ups and conspiracies and ofc a big plot twist at the end.

i think the same story dynamics the game has would work well as a movie.

Holy sh*t they're actually making it? i was kinda kidding but im glad they are, but Hugh jackman as snake? that's weak, give it to Clive owen i say, he would be perfect for that part!

Kind of not following my own OP here but it would be great if someone remade The Purge and made the writing more interesting because I feel like they squandered that cool premise.

I'm actually working on a Bejeweled fanfic. It's got a bit of a sci-fi adventure vibe, but it retains fantasy elements. I believe Wikipedia calls this "science fantasy."

The new one looks better than the other two were though, not going to lie.

I can only see the premise working if treated in some kind of surrealistic, intentionally over-the-top way. It's just too retarded to work in any kind of realistic setting.

Yes this so much. They won't answer simple questions for me. I feel like they are saving for the time that they need to make a prequel but fuck that they should have already showed some of this information that I want to know. I was hoping the sequel would answer it but no dice. The third one comes along and still no concrete answers. They did at least show one of the answers I have questions for but like idk. I need more!!!

The new one is pretty damn good and makes sense to a local conclusion of where this needed to head that's all I'm going to say about that. Go see it.

I'm not happy with the Power Rangers movie cast. Zach's Chinese? And Billy's black? THEY DON'T LOOK A THING LIKE THEM! Trini was already Chinese and Zack was already black.

Who cares? Why does it matter? As long as the actors can do a good job.
