First of all, that picture is a cosplay. Its fanmade. This is strictly a rumor and almost completely and utterly false.

 Note that the article doesn't mention the picture at all; merely uses it. It's probably in there to try giving us a visual referemce. 

 

The license for a Metroid movie was sold quite some time ago to someone... I can't remember who. But rumours of a Metroid movie have been floating around for some time. It'll happen... eventually.

@colonelstubbs
sure its a game, but the movie has to have a lot more depth in story
and if theres just one main character,and it isnt developed, the movie will suck no matter how perty the special effects are.hence the "say no to michael bay" sentiment



"The accumulated filth of all their sex and murders will foam up about their waist and all the whores and politicians will look up and shout "Save us!"...

 ....and I'll look down and whisper  "no."

Say what you will about Michael Bay, but the last half hour of Transformers was almost watchable.

The first two hours, on the other hand....



Please, PLEASE do NOT feed the trolls.

Michael Bay makes movies for people with ADD. His movies are famous for excess, and not in a good way. 75 cuts a second. 9723 explosions a minute. Big dramatic camera swoops and spins for absolutely no reason. I will give him one thing. He does know how to blow up things extremely well. Please don't let him ruin Metroid. If it's to be ruined, then hand it over to Uwe Boll. His movies are so bad that they're funny. He's starting to gain a cult status. Anyone see House of the Dead? Good times.

Not directly insulting the people who like his films, but it's there.

See why I say you all just can't follow his films?

And I don't mean you "don't get it" or "don't understand". I mean that it seems the action is just too fast for all of you to follow, and you are blaming him for it.

You all are just as bad as the people who put down video games. And I wrote "put down", not "trying to get them banned". I mean the people who refuse to acknowledge gaming is simply not their tastes, so act a though their opinions are objectively right.

That is with all you people and Bay. Sure a lot of you have that opinion, but it's still an opinion. It's your refusal to admit it that looks arrogant.

(And note I wrote "looks arrogant", not "you are all arrogant".)

Bay has fans. Armageddon and Transformers didn't make money by magic. Aren't some of you people against console bashing and fanboyism, because not all people share the same tastes in games? 



A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.

Plus, just for the hell of it: Kelly Brook at the 2008 BAFTAs

Tabsina, please tell me that's not true, that sounds horrid. I hope it's fake, or that it has been mentioned and I've missed it... anything at all, just not that!

That is VGChartz LONGEST review. And it's NOT Cute Kitten DS

Maybe, just don't make the same mistake that was made with the Super Mario Bros Movie. Boy, that was atrocious. No forgetting the equally dire Street Fighter Movie.

I don't know why people are saying "HELL NO" and such. Is it me, or do all the movies I like people hate?


Don't worry--it comes with the territory of being a teenager. A lot of the movies I liked when I was 13-16 I look back on and shudder. (Hook! The Last Action Hero! Star Wars! Oh crap, what'd I say, I'm about to get lynched....)

People's tastes expand as they grow older. And a lot of the movies you list are indeed good--Spider-Man, X-Men, some Disney movies. Good stuff. Pre-Pocahontas Disney films are usually fine films, and Pixar has yet to make a bad film.

@Raichu: Yes, Bay did Transformers, Armageddon, Pearl Harbor, The Island, The Rock and both Bad Boys movies. Of those, only The Rock is even OK. The rest is a stain on the medium in which I want to make my living.
