"Absolutely not! I don't know why Uwe Boll is even talking about this kind of thing. We've never talked to him. It's impossible that we'd ever do a movie with him."

MGS is one of my favorite series, but it would be a horrible film, with or without such a "visionary" as Uwe Boll.

I have to admit it...I liked House of the Dead.

I liked it too, but that's because I love movies with lots of death and destruction regardless of plot. Most people don't.

My roommate commented that an MGS movie would be the game without the interactive part. I agree.

An Metal Gear CGI movie might be cool installment to the series though.

I disagree. MGS plots have been too riddled with inconsistencies and bad anime psuedo Shintoism to make a watchable film in the west.

Psuedo Shintoism?
I must've missed that in MGS. It actually seemed pretty darn western to me. Remember all the monologes about your life being determined by your genes?

what I was thinking of was just those psuedo-mystical monologues about genetics, life, war, etc.

:ahem: The movie had good lines too, such as this:

Girl: You killed all of these people to be immortal, why?
Bad Immortal Guy: To Live Forever

"We got to the boat, but it wasn't there"

"Hey look, this book is old, maybe it can help us"

"It's zombies! Plain and simple."

Well actually looking at it, those aren't great lines, they are just unintentionally hillarious.

That all still seemed western to me. I'm pretty sure Naomi's final revelation ("Until now, I've looked for a reason to live. Now I'm just going to live") came out of the something in the 19th century. Her monologues about our genes being immutible was completely monist, materialist cynicism.

But yeah, that might make for a boring movie. I thought it was interesting, but there's the chance it could turn into Matrix: Reloaded or something. :eek:
