I remember back when Metroid Prime released how they where talking about a movie.

Producers Warren Zide and Craig Perry optioned the film rights for "Metroid" in January 2003 but let them expire.

Glad to see that even if the original idea died, someone else has picked up the torch.

for some odd reason I read 'Tiger Hill' as 'Tiger Woods' and was very confused.

Nintendo better not let those Hollywood fuckers cash in on sex appeal just because Samus is female. The only thing that was ever sexy about her was the endings of the games (and only if you finished quick enough ;) ), and it would really piss me off if they turned this uber-powerful badass bounty hunter into another Lara Croft.

You can't wish for that. You know they will. :/

When will we get our live action Sonic movie? :(

Edit: Directed by Mel Gibson? He can do more than the Passion, ya know. >:

[Emu]

I don't think I want to see Sonic's excessively bloody robotification.

Dying a headgehop blue is a sin, why, a, it's like killin' a mockingbird.

i would rather if they kept samus' helmeteted for the whole movie, until the very end... (congratulations you finished watching the movie in under ninty minutes)...

i would hate to see cheap shower scenes like in resident evil (just to get the 12 year olds excited)

[Perndog]

Yeah really..for all those folks who have never heard of the series, they shouldn't even let on that Samus is a woman until the very end. Ah, the nostalgia.

[DamnthatDavid]

God, you hear the rumors that Samus is going to be played by Cameran Diaz? Holy God...

[Bennett]

They should have Sarah Silverman play Samus and hand out "I'm a nerd" jizz-towels :lol

I'm going to commit suicide if this movie gets beyond production talks. Who the fuck thinks this is a good idea? IT ISN'T.

[DamnthatDavid]

Well, if Woo actually makes, it will be at least decent.
And if they get the right actress, and don't add stupid cliches every 10 seconds, then it might be great.
