First Transformers, then Lupin and now I get news of a Metroid movie!? I guess Hollywood really HAS run out of script ideas. -_-
Though I find the thought of a Metroid movie a little disturbing. Like you guys pointed out before, Metroid hasn’t always exactly been a series big on the dialogue.
I keep imagining the movie would end up like some Starship Troopers knock-off gone horribly wrong. Or these terribly B-movie looking scenes of the Space Pirates huddled around in their ship cursing The Hunter, or Samus ripping off her helmet after a fight to spew out some cheesy badass phrases. But such are the limits of my imagination.
Personally I’d rather have a new game than a movie, but if they do decide to make it I hope they find a way to do it right.
Well, I think the Resident Evil films did fairly well in the box office and content wise they didn't turn out half bad. They could have been a little better but hell...they look like freakin' masterpieces compared to the Mario and Street Fighter movies.
