The ideal MGS movie would just be a slow, thoughtful character piece about a veteran dealing with the trauma of war, like if Rambo got therapy in the first movie instead of getting poo poo on, with absolutely zero espionage or violence.

I think Biehn's likeness was only aped for the first one. MG2 clearly uses Mel Gibson.

So clearly there needs to be an unexplained actor swap in the middle of the Metal Gear movie.

This film will finally put to test just how many minutes of radio discussion audiences will tolerate in a 90 minute movie.

I always thought that was Michael Dudikoff. I know that American Ninja came out five years before MG2 and had always thought they picked someone relatively obscure but in movies, even though they're using aforementioned Connery and Berenger, Danny Devito, and Dolph Lundgren.

Basically Locke, but following Roy Campbell as he juggles Snake, Otacon and Raiden over codec.

Wheelman is similar. Much of the drama and suspense is done through phone conversations.

A weird thing about Geostorm is that Gerard Butler and Jim Sturgess play brothers and both use American accents but there's a line in there about how they were born in the UK.

They need a sequence that has BB talking about how vampires terrify him, and then, when he sleeps, the MGS movie suddenly becomes a trailer for a forthcoming horror movie from the studio.

Well Locke certainly was, but I still think this would be taking "Betraying the audience" to an extreme. It would give Hayter a chance at the lead, though :v:

I definitely wouldn't complain if they popped up a standard codec screen in the middle of the movie, but good luck to whoever has to script it.

If Vogt-Roberts directs a Metal Gear movie I feel like the only appropriate casting is John C Reilly as Raiden.

No, it turns into an actual vampire movie, with BB as the main character (since its his dream) and the vampire played by solid snake's actor kills him then he wakes up and movie ends

Sad that Konami kicked Kojima to the curb. Because MGS6 would have totally had a Memefarm as the next Metal Gear iteration, with the discovery that the original was a Gutenberg Press nicknamed The Metal Gear that was capable of printing disinformation at a ludicrous speed (like, 5 pages a minute man).

A walking tank was the ultimate weapon for the nuclear age. For the information age, it was genetics. The design age? Why we design our own reality with these GLORIOUS MEMES, SNAAAAAAAAKE.

It is indeed modern time that we have genetics and are reaching a state to create our own realities through misinformation but not to the point that reality is manifest so much as choosing to believing in lies.

But yes Kojima prophesized this through MGS2 which in retrospect is one of the greatest games or media created. This is also a fabricated reality that should be enforced.

Morbius, the Living Vampire is the next-rumored Spider-Man-less Spider-Man movie. Burk Sharpless and Matt Sazama (two of the writers on Power Rangers) wrote a script, no one else is attached at this time, and those are also the dudes writing a Lost in Space reboot series for NetFlix

I'm betting they're going for more of a GoT vibe than the Hobbit, that's definitely a market that exists.

Not as many tits in Tolkien's books,but more than enough violence.
