If they ever made a Metroid movie, they would be a fool to recast Samus as a guy... I will admit though that keeping her as 'her' They will no doubt try and insert some shamless stripe/nudie scene in it. But I always thought it did have potential for a good movie series, a trilogy would work well...DEATH wrote:They allready made a metroid movie- alien.Crossroads Inc. wrote:Ok, want a Video Game that could really work as a Movie?
Metroid...
Seriously! Between the backstory you can put in concerning Samus and the Spacepirates attacking her colony. Her being raised by the Chozo, and of course the backstory of the Metroids themselves, you actually have enough aspects for a worth while "plot" Plus...
It has
Explsions,
Chicks in Power armour,
Lots of weapons,
Spaceships,
More explosions,
And a big Brain Monster at the end.
Perfect Summer Blockbuster!
Kidding, seriosly Metroid is tailor made for a movie or 4, but they'd want a man in the suit, or constant strip scenes (one would be enough ), and would otherwise fuck it up.
It really is tailor made for a trilogy or five-ology, with the greater threat revealed, monsters, Babe, Metroids, Space (ninja) Pirates, massive monsters and a built in large amount of disposable extras (the contingent of galactic marines who always end up slaughtered before Samus arrives)
But who could you trust to devlope it properly?
