It will be sh*t. Gamers who love the game will watch it, and moan about what they have changed but still kind of like it. Non gamers will will watch it and not get it. It will have a short life at the cinema and be in the bargain bins a few months later. I bet you. :)

Gears movie to be like Cloverfield

Gears of War film producer Wyck Godfrey wants to be like JJ Abrams and create a Cloverfield-like story about survival in the immediate aftermath of a catastrophic event. He could even use big dinosaur monsters if he wanted: they're canon.

The "hard part", he told Making Of (via Kotaku), will be side-stepping a "a world torn asunder and people just in battle" because that's not Zeitgeist.

"You've got to figure out," he said. "I think we really want to focus on the idea of a world that's running well and then [clicks fingers] it's Emergence Day. And make it impactful and immediate and [about] those 48 hours as people survive Emergence Day.

"It's more like Cloverfield or something like that, because trying to tell the epic story of an alien planet that's living in a horrific environment just feels like the wrong mood right now."

The Gears of War film will be made by Legendary Pictures and New Line Cinema. Underworld and Die Hard 4.0 director Len Wiseman will be at the helm, steered by Gears of War creator Cliff Bleszinksi.

I didnt like Clover Field much. I reckon Gears should be made using CGI and the voice actors from the game.
Can't wait for Shenmue 3



I hate jokes that rely on visual imagery.

I've had it right up to here with them.

In a similar way to Resident Evil Degeneration which was a lot better than the live action movies, i could see that working definitely, but it'll probably be something that is done after a live action version.

It would'nt be complete without some old guy in the corner moaning about "how come I unloaded a clip into that fucker and he turns around and takes me out with one blast of his fucking shotgun?"
Realistic then?
