"But that just my ideas, if anyone else has something to add, this thread is open to everyone. I DON'T HAVE THEM MAKE THIS MOVIE LIKE MAX PAYNE, ALONE IN THE DARK, RESDENT EVIL", they sucked bad, and I feel sorry to Mark Wahlberg for the studio giving him a crapy storyline"

So, in a nutshell, you would like such a film to be made by the premier purveyors of shiny, yet empty Hollywood trash. I suppose that would be fitting for a MGS movie, which would be nothing more than a series of set piece duels against over-the-top gimmicky villains, but it's still funny.

I guess my point is that we have quite enough failed game-to-movie adaptations and I'm in no mood for another one, especially one that (unbelievable as it sounds) would probably be more interesting if it was written and directed by Uwe Boll.

I know what you mean, I completly understand that there hasn't been a good videogame movie, exempt for "TOMB RAIDER" which did stay ture to the story of Lara Croft. As for this, you would after think for a few hour and ask yourself, what is the biggest failier of all videogame movies, and has to be either the Cast, the Screenwriting, the Story, the Music Score, or could be the imporant person is the Director. Now you would also think that a CGI version of the game could make a lot more money at the BOX OFFICE, because it would stay true to the game, right? Wrong, people want to see the movie.. "as in Live Action" not see the charater with recorded voices, they want to see their favorte actors and actress can really poll-off the game's true character, thats is the truth. As for the CGI version of the movie, the fans think that should stay with as game title to their company, you know keep the sales going for MGS in their favor, but don't get me wrong, its still cool idea of course, but it would come on DVD like Resident Evil: Degeneration

I really like David Hayter as the voice of Solid Snake, and its a huge mistake to leave him out of the project, he's the most imporant asent to the movie's success. One, he knows his character only "too well" and maybe the others too, plus give incredible guidance to the actor who would playing his live-action self. Second, he done pretty good with doing screenwriting, I know that he did some writing for X2 and some others, so he can "if he could' multitasking to the movie, which I know he would do. The director is the key the game's movie success, like you would think could bring out the true nature of the game to the BIG SCREEN, hu, like Jerry Bruckheimer, Michael Bay, Ridley Scott, Christopher Nolan, Paul Scheuring, J.J. Abrams or Steven Spielberg along side Hideo Kojima, but you would also ask yourself, you could bring out the Realistic, Thrilling, Heart Bounding/Adrenaline Rush to the addience or who could make the METAL GEAR to life, uh. Kojima has just has to be the 2nd director in the project to make this work, thats all. All there is are the Pros & Cons on who can deliver the goods to the film, nothing more.

ONE TOO MANY, MY MISTAKE.

TOP

Two things:

1) Who the fuck is David Hayder?
2) The games are their own movies. Making an actual film would be redundant.

1.)David Hayter is the main voice to "Solid Snake" in METAL GEAR SOILD

2.)Look above at the first respones.

So far this idea sounds like a movie from heaven. Pretty good choice of actors for the characters, Still I would have like to see Martin Sheen as Roy Campbell.

So far this idea sounds like a movie from heaven. Pretty good choice of actors for the characters, Still I would have like to see Martin Sheen as Roy Campbell.

This is my choice also! it is important for Campbell to have a commanding voice, Sheen is perfect!

I think Christian Bale and Hugh Jackman would both be great as Snake.
I would like Snake and Liquid to be played by the same actor though (they're clones after all.)
It wouldn't be that difficult to pull off I don't think, the only scene where they have physical contact with each other is when they fight on top of REX.
I bet they will change the story so that they aren't clones though, oh well...

Jennifer Connelly would be a decent Naomi but my #1 choice is Catherine Zeta Jones.

Jessica Alba as Meryl? NO THANK YOU
how about someone who can actually act, like Jessica Beil.

Gary Oldman is the only actor who should ever play Ocelot. this is not opinion it is fact.

Otacon... this is a hard role to cast I think. I don't like the choices..

Mei Ling: this is the easiest role to cast I think. but remember, although she is Chinese she was born in America!
Nan Yu and Zhang Ziyi are Chinese, I don't think they would do a very good job. there are many capable Asian American actresses, Mei Ling doesn't have to be played somebody famous.

the rest of the roles are not as important in my opinion. realistically you can't have a full cast of A-list actors, I just hope that Foxhound and Gray Fox are portrayed accurately.
as for
Darpa Chief: who cares
Kenneth Baker: who cares
Jim Houseman: double who cares. I mean seriously, come on now.

in addition to HGW and Norihiko Hibino I would suggest John Powell who did the music for the Bourne trilogy.

also I hope the movie will be based on the original MGS, not TTS. the only character who should be doing acrobatics is Gray Fox!

not to be pessimistic but I have very low expectations for this movie, based on the fact that there has never been a faithfully adapted videogame movie.

When people always choose a cast and director it's always the usual suspects. Every cast list is just a huge list of random "A-list" celebrities all piled together.

I'm not going into my dream list but for now all I'd suggest is Eric Bana as Snake, Doug Jones in a body suit as Grey Fox/Psycho Mantis and Paul Greengrass at the helm as director. Seriously, this movie if made needs a director that understands how to give a nice pace to action sequences. Michael Bay just knows how to film breasts, muscles and explosions. He's fucking woeful at directing.

I'd also like to see a cast list of mostly unknown actors to play the crew of Foxhound. I'd also like to see whoever plays Raven to be suited up in a prosthetic muscle outfit much like Jason Flemyng in The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. I know, it's a terrible movie but his prosthetic are impressive. In a perfect world it wouldn't be made by the likes of Mc G or Bay. In a perfect world the ending track would be "The Best Is Yet To Come" by Aoife N� Fhearraigh. In a perfect world they'd use minimal CGI and really try and make an interesting adaption of a videogame. I'm sure they'll make the movie one day but I'm not holding my breath because it'll most likely by Transformers with a bandanna.

@Skullgrin140: I agree that either "Gene Hackman" or Martin Sheen" are the best to do the roll of "Col. Roy Campbell"

@Denny: Ya, Blindfolded. No Doubt.

@Chinaman: Ya, Snake & Liquid are of course Twins, but they have different facal features, like Sean Bean as "Liquid Snake" is what the fans want for the twin of Snake because they want to see if he could poll out the roll as the main villian in the game's movie. A lot of fans talked and agreed that Bean is the one to deffentaly play Liquid. Look at the videos for the casting of MGS on youtube. With longer blond hair, he might just poll it off.

As for "Naomi", Catherine Zeta Jones dosn't just have that youthful look for the roll, exempt for Jennifer Connelly. She has the main features need for it, youthful, headstrong, and she looks & sounds like the character from the game. I was just going by from what I saw from playing the game.

Same with Meryl. Just going by instinct.

Gary Oldman is a pretty good actor, but the roll should go to the guy from Prison Break who plays the character "T-Bag" in the series. He not only as the looks, but the attude just like "Ocelot". Just going by instinct.

Also the fans think that the guy who plays "CHUCK" from the series should have the roll of "Otacon", he would look with classes and lab coat, you wouldn't you think.

"Mei Ling" of course, is really about finding the asian girl, one with the facal feature and the voice. Thats all I can say about that.

"Grey Fox" is the Cyber-Ninja, so I believe from seeing so many actor in the movies from the past year should go to Jet Li because of his Marshal Arts skills, but the black guy from Iron Man has as more of the roll and the voice for the character, but he would still have to be trainned in "MA" to be "Grey Fox".

With the "DARPA Chief, Baker, and the TSOD", has to given to the actors with the looks and attude. Just like for the rest and even though we don't like them.

The music for the movie version the game is difficult, because they need not only the music from the game and more orchestrated, like the music from Deep Blue Sea has that exact the geure of the music. As for the action scenes, should have the music style from "Enemy of the State", "TRANSFORMERS", "BATMAN BEGINS", "Deep Blue Sea" combind with the score from both "The Twin Snakes & the PSX version" of the game. The music also need that "Videogame Sound", "Techo" for short to it to make it as real as the game it self, so the addience can feel like their in the movie, Edge of Seat, sort of way. The person who could possibly pull that out is the composer from a "Well Known" CGI series "Action Man (2000)" that has the music score just like a videogame, here's example of his work "here" (http://www.michaelwhittaker.net/Audio/Ambient%20Techno.mp3), just go to the main website by removing the music file. He's also worked with composer, Christopher Young in the movie "Entrapment". The computer programing and piano has to go newbe composer, James T. Sales who just finish scoring for the horor movie "The Haunting of Molly Hartley" and did a independce film called "TERMINAL ERROR" which has that Sean Callery "24" feel to his works.


The Story is probbley going to from the Present to the past in Flashblacks during the movie. I know that for fact. I hoping that "Big Boss" is in the movie, even though he's dead. DANNEL DAY LOUIS is perfect for the roll. Just see the movie "There Will be Blood" and tell me if he could it.

I hoping that the people that are behind making the game's movie, are lissing to the fans, their ones with alot of heart and the say with trying to make something like this happen. Like I said before, all there is are the Pros & the Cons.

1.)David Hayter is the main voice to "Solid Snake" in METAL GEAR SOILD

2.)Look above at the first respones.

1) I know who David Hayter is, but who is David Hayder?
1b) Also, what the fuck is METAL GEAR SOILD?

2) Silence, it was not meant to be responded to.

1b) Also, what the fuck is METAL GEAR SOILD?

What the franchise would be if this guy gets his way.

Would we get a controller in the cinema seats? So we could interact with the movie? It would save Konami the hardship of making another game.

this guy's post are one complete run on sentence. it was so difficult for me to get through (yes, calum, i actually TRIED to read it. stopped after a bit though). also, i lol'd at the choice of directors and the spelling mistakes. J.J. Abrams and Michael Bay? you have got to be kidding me. J.J. would just leave it all hidden and shrouded. "zomg, is that the metal gear?!" "i don't know, i only saw an inch of it's surface" and what Denny said about Bay is on the money. also, swami is pretty much right about the games being movies in their own right.

Unhappy to see that I'm the only one who's voted both YES and NO in this very important multiple option poll

Bad form FFS >:O

@Luckey: As long as you admit that you want the main voice of "Solid Snake" to still be with the project, then there's nothing else to worry about, ok dude.

@Anyname: Ya, dude just have to remember that the game's movie, needs the Right People, Producers, Srceenwriters, Directors, and most all, the Right Special Effects deparment. We are not trying to tell them how to their jobs, but maybe thats want they need to keep the idea from not being a another Videogame-Movie failier. We the fans of "MGS" should help make Hideo Kojima's dream into a reality.

woosh

I don't know...what about Christopher Walken as Revolver Ocelot?

I think that if ... if a studio is doing an adaptation of the Metal Gear series then two questions must be asked. One are you doing a stand alone story set in the Metal Gear world if so which episode does it take place between. Secondly if you're intending to make a franchise then are you telling the story
of the father or of the son (clone).

@hellrasinbrasin: I think they would want is to make a franchise just like the other videogame based movies. Kojima would start off with the story from the first "MGS" game for PSX, and going on in order from "So-called" beginning, to the additional stories of the series, including "MGS 4", but I don't think it will end from there. Its a very popplar videogame.


@Top Dollar: I like the idea for Walken for "Revolver Ocelot", but I personaly think that the guy from "Prison Break" who plays "T-Bag" is the best one for the roll for "Ocelot". Just watch what he acts out, and then tell me if he couldn't possibly take the roll. All he really need the guns and hair, thats all I can say.

I don't know...what about Christopher Walken as Revolver Ocelot?

LOL! Snake... I need more cowbell!!

Clint Eastwood as Revoler Ocelot. Fucking Dirty Harry man.

Also, Cristopher Nolan should direct the MGS movie, not Michael fricken Bay.

needs moar Uwe Boll.

i think solid snake is have a blue eyes right?

We are missing the perfect Revolver Ocelot: Rade Serbedzija.

And please, no Michael Bay for MGS. No way. And I even like some of his films, but not for Metal Gear. He wouldn't be right.

Bale would be good for Snake, Jackman would be good for Snake, and I'd like Thomas Jane as Snake. Too bad it's not 20 years ago because Kurt Russell, now that's Snake. But we all know that.

Look at my 2nd post.

Maybe The old snake will be kurt rusell hmm what do you think

its possible, but we'll have to wait & see what happens after the first movie.

ITS A NEW YEAR WITH MORE CHANCES OF THE MOVIE BEING OUT FOR PRODUCTION REAL SOON

CHECK THIS OUT (http://www.collider.com/entertainment/interviews/article.asp/aid/10142/tcid/1)

I'm sorry that I don't share the same optimism that most of you have. I just hope to God that Kojima-san would come to his senses and stop this project from destroying what took him 20 years of his life to build.

Another example of another game-to-movie project that was halted, Splinter Cell. However, it might have made a good movie, but the gentleman who voices Sam Fisher, Michael Ironside, is the ONLY person that can essentially be Sam Fisher and he's much to old to do what same does in the games.

Now, taking both into account, if Splinter Cell, and maybe MGS down the line, are made in CGI, in the words of Colonel Cambell when Snake finds the SOCOM in MGS:TTS "...then it's a different story."

George Clooney as Solid Snake
Christopher O'Donnell as Raiden
Arnold Schwarztenegger as Ocelot
Alicia Silverstone as Naomi
Uma Thurman as Meryl

The only way the movie can be made great is to give Hideo Kojima complete control over the movie. Screw Micheal Bay.

Like the layout except for a couple of things:

Revolver Ocelot should NOT be Gary Oldman. Sorry, love the actor but I cannot see him twirling a gun with red gloves and a white mustache and pony tail.
And whats with Adrien Brody as Psycho Mantis? . . . He's creepy looking, but not THAT much . . .

Like Christian Bale and Sean Bean though - they could make that work. Sadly they will never get actors like them.

George Clooney as Solid Snake
Christopher O'Donnell as Raiden
Arnold Schwarztenegger as Ocelot
Alicia Silverstone as Naomi
Uma Thurman as Meryl

Arnold Schwartzenegger? As OCELOT? I can maybe see him as Vulcan Raven, but . . . OCELOT???

George Clooney as Solid Snake
Christopher O'Donnell as Raiden
Arnold Schwarztenegger as Ocelot
Alicia Silverstone as Naomi
Uma Thurman as Meryl

Needs more love.


Arnold Schwartzenegger? As OCELOT? I can maybe see him as Vulcan Raven, but . . . OCELOT???

You obviously don't get the reference...

Pretty good cast. I like Christian Bale but I dunno...Psycho Mantis could be played by Johny Depp (or maybe not). Sean Connery could be the Colonel.

Johnny depp stays the hell away from this movie, so sick of every movie hes in surrounded by fan girls who care more about him than the movie.
old snake would still be kurt russell.
Who plays big boss?

i think uma thurman would be good as The boss, just think of kill bill. i can picture her as The joy.

I suggest this cast

The only way the movie can be made great is to give Hideo Kojima complete control over the movie. Screw Micheal Bay.

Theatrical cut: 3 hours.
Ext. Directors cut: 3 days!

I had this exact discussion with some friends back around the time MGS2 came out. It must be the fact that all the games play out like movies that they might as well BE movies... or DVD Mini-series'.

Not much in the way of new actors, but I've always had certain actors in mind from the past that, were they younger or alive today, would have fit the roles like a glove.

I always think back to Kojima having been inspired by Escape from New York for Solid Snake's character (right down to the "Pliskin" joke in MGS2) and will always be certain that Kurt Russell would be great for the role (in his younger days). If it were a movie of the original Metal Gear, I'd have to go with the box art and pick a young Michael Biehn.

And though Patrick Swayze isn't doing too great these days, in his youth he and Kurt Russell always looked very alike to me (to play on the whole clone look-a-like theme). Conceivably, he could have been a great Liquid Snake (or vice versa for the roles).

Anyone remember Colonel Trautman from First Blood? Richard Crenna was the actor's name. He would have been a perfect Roy Campbell. Unfortunately, he passed away from cancer around 2004.

Nowadays though, I'm thinking more like this, though this is not a complete cast.

Solid Snake - Hugh Jackman
Colonel Campbell - Dennis Quaid or Jeremy Irons
Naomi Hunter - Sienna Miller
Hal "Otacon" Emmerich - John Ales

Revolver Ocelot - Sam Elliott (He IS Ocelot! http://www.imdb.com/media/rm983800576/nm0000385)

Grey Fox - Ray Park

DARPA Chief - Danny Glover or Reginald VelJohnson (Carl Winslow from "Family Matters")
ArmsTech President Baker - Robert Englund (in a fat suit and makeup most likely)

Big Boss - Stephen Lang (Old Big Boss)

you can now play the movie while playing the movie!

I Know a lot of forums have been created about this special movie so much hype but no information that's hideo for you keeps everything secret. Before i used to think this man was the best for the job was Christian Bale. He brought us Batman back into the 21th century. An idle figure that we won't remember him with nipples in George clooney Batman and Robin adaption LOL. After Terminator Salvation i don't think Bale has mojo to bring to this movie. He's a brilliant actor but do you really wanna see the guy that played Batman and John Connor in a huge role like this. I think he has his hands full doing Batman 3 and the new Terminator Trilogy. Hugh Jackman is awesome he brought us our child hood wolverine to the big screen which is set for a trilogy plus maybe in a avengers movie with the likes of Iron man and spider-man would be incredible. But not for a Metal Gear Solid movie. David Hayter played the voice for years of solid Snake. He is also an actor but for Metal Gear Solid no. I've read a lot of peoples opinion and this is only an opinion everybody is free to comment how you like. But Sean bean as liquid come on that's a bit far. Any real Metal Gear solid fan would now the difference. I'm 23 years old but i was a kid when i played the first Metal Gear Game on the Nintendo. Good Movies Start at the beginning that's a fact. Hideo isn't gonna start the movie at Metal Gear Solid as there already was a story there in cut scenes in the game. He is gonna start with Metal Gear.Where Fox hound were in prisoned in outer heaven and Justin Harley aka Snake the youngest Foxmen that rescued Grey Fox and other members of the fox team. In outer Heaven where he first confronts Big Boss and the Metal Gear Prodject. There's a book to this that i required as a child very rare plus a 2d birds eye view to this game. This is the beginning where there gonna start as it never told the story like the Playstation adaption. Second movie Metal Gear Solid Snake where grey fox has sided with Big Boss in Zanzibar on a new Metal Gear project which leaves Snake destroying Metal Gear blowing Grey Fox open on a mine field from the top of Metal Gear and Killing Big Boss Like a Star Wars clash of Darth Vader and Luke Skywalker he kills him after he found out that Big Boss was his father. Sounds awesome hey.... Then he disappears. Then come Metal Gear Solid with liquid and that snake finds out he is like a clone with improved strengths. To be Liquid in the movie you have to be the same actor as Solid Snake as there like Twins. Metal Gear needs to start as a young actor like Taylor Kitsch who plays gambit maybe have a voice of David Hayter but any good actor should be able to produce a good voice. I don't care if a nobody plays Solid Snake along as the actor can pull it off the franchise sells itself. But if they did do voice overs James Masters would play an awesome part for the voice for Liquid if you don't know him he played Spike in the Buffy Series. I know Big Boss was based around Kurt Russel but Big Boss also needs to the same actor for the movie to fit. We need a good actor to fill the role and not a star actor. Hideo has some crazy ideas and never tells us whats happening and makes us for months on end guess the wrong thing LOL..... But if you were making a movie would you start with a middle age man in a middle of a story or would you start from the beginning? Your say let me know Live Action all the way



Fantasy Draft
80's

Solid Snake: Micheal Biehen, Kurt Russel
Liquid: As above
Big Boss: as above
Cambell: Richard Crenna

Please beware this is based on a trilogy
2009 Draft for upcoming Movies
Solid Snake: Taylor Kitsch
Liquid: Taylor Kitsch
Big Boss: Kurt Russell
Ocalot: M.C. Gainey
Raven: Bill Goldberg/Brock lesner
Meryl: Teenager actor
Mantis: He wears a mask mostly lol
Decoy: David Caruso
Wolf: Milla Jovovich

All above is a fantasy don't mean they could ever pull off the roles for this movies but a movie like this you don't need huge hollywood actors the story is already there all we need is actor that fit 100% the roles and can be the characters. Were all gonna watch it anyway who ever is in the movie to see if it's good or bad. Were gonna see it sometime in our life the fan base is already there we don't need overpaid actors.

No Russell Crowe No Thomas Jane No Christian Bale No Viggo No Hugh
The Time Frame of this movie should start with an actor thats around 25 and finish the movies between 30-35 Depends how much they want to make

Would this movie be based off the first or second game? i have the first game for ps1, but never played it cause of the crappy graphics.
Second stupid question: can I find MGS1 for playstation2 or xbox? because I have both 2 and 3 and love that game TO DEATH.

I think Michael Bay would be a BAD idea for Metal Gear. He was WAY too much of a tendency to make things go boom and be confusing.
He was okay with Transformers, but just... no.

And Uma Thurman would be PERFECT boss.
I have no idea who else to suggest, though I don't think Hugh Jackman would be that good of a role. His voice would fit, but too many people know him as wolverine from X Men fame, and it would probably just ruin it. (people would hold the actor to a character's standards and be dissapointed when the MGS chara doesn't hold up to the opinion of the character in another movie.)
Sorry, I'm rambling. I just write fanfiction and it kinda maked me notice things. Not about mgs or x men though... okay, shutting up now. :-p
