I don't give a fuck. It'd make a great monster flick.
>>
>>344726416
Actually a very good show or comic series.

Evolve has a LOT of interesting lore. And the characters are fucking charming.

The Mutagen Wars, how the Basilisk Soldiers like Slim went into the bugman process and LOST said war. Hyde being a Chemtrooper specialized in cleaning them up. The Ajax ship that was lost and how Torvald lost half his body. The Hub and the bounty hunters. Cabot's tragic past. Maggie being the sole survivor of Factor and how she managed to escape in the Nordita ship. The Lovecraftian implications of the monsters not being from this dimension.

The Metal Gear Solid games.

Duh!

They already made one, it was called Guns of the Patriots.

>>344725221
I don't know if it would be written that well but on a visual level it seems like a slam dunk
>>
>>344726880
MGS1 or 3 would be ideal, the others require too much context.
>>
>>344726880
MGS has shit story even in the games.

MGS1 is the only REALLY decent one. MGS2 has an overall interesting plot filled with nonsense that sadly had to be carried over. Can't be adapted.

MGS3 is the cheese on my dick. Cheesy as fuck. It would make anyone outside vidya cringe. MGS4 and V were incredibly stupid.

Ironically, the only other title that COULD work and would be pretty good as an action flick is REVENGEANCE because, surprise, it's not written by Kojima's pijamas.
>>
>>344726880
Imagine an MGS movie series following the plots of the games, but with an MGSV movie that actually shows BB becoming the villain of MG1, instead of a fake BB saving the world, rescuing child soldiers, and teaching them to read while barely talking at all.

Basically rewriting the whole story
>>
>>344725221

How this works:

>game has themes and mechanics that transfer well to film


What will happen

Light similarities to the game that you wouldn't even notice if it didn't share the same title.

So expect hotline miami movie to be more like a shitty version of Kick-Ass but the guy puts on a chicken mask to kill gangsters.
>>
>>344725221
Drive or just about any Steven seagal movie
>>
Hotline Miami was heavily inspired by Drive anon, I recommend watching it. It really is Hotline Miami the movie if that's what your itchin for.
>>
>>344728403
Don't lie to the poor guy, Drive and Hotline Miami have little in common aside from that 80's feel.
>>
>>344726750
I always imagine the end being a Defense map for the Evacuation mode thing and the Hunters have to throw out a dome to cut off the exploding pipeline. Also in the movie the domes burn through shit, so there's scars from domes and trees and plants get cut/burnt.

I like MGS but they would be terrible movies. Their stories are essentially bloated non sensical info dumps.
Kojima is a failed film director for a reason.

>>344725221
They're basically making hotline miami already yo. It's called HitTv

Something like Seven Samurai, a monster harasses a village/planet/base, and a group of hunters must step up to the challenge.

Was Drive's story focused around being practically forced into taking out warehouses to strongholds of Russian mob via cryptic phonecalls?

the story is nothing alike but it's pretty obvious hotline miami took a lot from Drive.
Even the developers said so.

I always felt GTA: Vice City could make for a great movie. Something like To Live and Die and L.A., a colorful and bright movie with two main characters. Should be directed by Michael Mann

>>344728696
they're actually quite similar

>>344732441
I recently watched that movie, holy shit i got a big surprise, it was more than decent, and fun too
>>
>>344732621
Yeah I went in with very low expectations, mainly because

1. Almost zero marketing for it
2. First person movie? Last time I remember a movie doing that was DOOM

Was extremely surprised and enjoyed the hell out of it. The twist was neat too and the EZ struck a chord in my shitposting heart.

Looks like a generic CoD style movie

What's so good about it? Or is it one of those "You have to watch it to get it" movies
>>
>>344728403
Drive may have inspired it, but I feel like The Guest reminded me of it more. Could just be the soundtrack though.

Like for that bullshit torture room the first time I went through and blew up.

I actually really, really enjoyed the ending. Reminded me a lot of left for dead, and the scene in the helicopter really instilled the Henry wasn't no bitch, and can never be a bitch.

Fallout or The Elder Scrolls might make good movies. The tricky thing to decipher is if you'd just use the settings or try to use the plots of one of the games.

Frankly, a show or comic book using the verse and expanding on the lore would probably be better.
>>
>>344733818
It's shot really well, short enough so that the first person camera gimmick never becomes too annoying, and has amazing action sequences. The plot is extremely silly but very entertaining especially with the final third. There's also lots of nice touches here and there, with a lot of attention to detail. If you're looking for an intelligent movie this isn't the one for you, but if you just want some dumb action it's definitely a good flick.

One of the highlights of the movie. That final scene in the helicopter is fucking perfect.
