PanzerMeyer Albatros pilot for the Kaiser King Crimson - SimHQ's Top Poster Registered: 04/04/01 Posts: 72153 Loc: Miami, FL USA	So with the deluge of sequels and crappy movies put out by Hollywood it just surprises me that some really outstanding games with great stories and characters haven't been made into a film yet. Mass Effect - This should be a no-brainer. With the right people involved this could be an amazing sci-fi film with substance that could also appeal to the multiplex crowds. Half Life - Read above. Knights of the Old Republic - George should be working on getting this on film instead of wasting time with the tv live action series that is going nowhere. _________________________ I aim to misbehave.

Raw Kryptonite Beat the Kobayashi Maru Hotshot Registered: 04/04/08 Posts: 7071 Loc: MS	I've said for years how I'd love to see KOTOR as a high quality movie. Great storyline. The first Halo could be a good movie if they kept it gritty like the movie shorts they've put out. An X universe movie would be cool as well. Most of all I want Splinter Cell Chaos Theory and Rainbow Six, but of course that's not sci fi. _________________________ •XBL/Xfire: Raw Kryptonite •Logitech G27 Nixim •360 Wheel •AMD FX-4170 •Sapphire Radeon HD 6950 2GB GDDR5 •16 GB Corsair Vengeance 1600mhz PC3-12800 •MSI 990FXA-GD65 Mobo •X-Fi Fatal1ty Pro/Logitech Z-5500 •Win 7 64

PanzerMeyer Albatros pilot for the Kaiser King Crimson - SimHQ's Top Poster Registered: 04/04/01 Posts: 72153 Loc: Miami, FL USA	Originally Posted By: SkateZilla Preqel.... Yeah I noticed that. I personally don't mind that as long as it is done well. I guess we'll see eventually who will be directing and who will be on the cast. Oh, I found this in the forums on IMDB, "Mass Effect is such an amazing story arc, it would make a fantastic movie franchise. Its extremely unfortunate that it is getting pigeon holed into an animated movie which will immediately shrink its potential audience to a mere fraction of what it could have otherwise been. Just really too bad. Especially since Hollywood isnt coming up with anything new on their own." That would really suck if it is indeed an animated film and not live action.

Jedi Master Entil'zha Big Kahuna Registered: 02/15/00 Posts: 33095 Loc: Space Coast, USA	I don't know, it says due out next year and if it's animated that won't happen. Not unless they've been working on it since shortly after the first came out. The Jedi Master _________________________ Back off, man. I'm a scientist.

Coot Gooood Morning SimHQ! Senior Member Registered: 08/30/05 Posts: 4555 Loc: !!USA!!	How about a Crimson Skies movie. That'd be pretty darn excellent if you got the right actors and make it have the feel of Rocketeer or something like that. _________________________ " Without morals a republic cannot subsist any length of time; they therefore who are decrying the Christian religion, whose morality is so sublime and pure...are undermining the solid foundation of morals, the best security for the duration of free governments."

What was the name of that scifi movie with Jude Law and Gwyneth Paltrow that came out a few years ago? That had a Crimson Skies look and feel to it. _________________________ I aim to misbehave.
