I wonder, will there be two versions of the movie? One Paragon, one Renegade?

Please don't let it turn into Star Wars...

Bah, game-based movies always suck...

And what is wrong with Star Wars?!

What isn't wrong with Star Wars? The news ones that is

Sounds interesting, but you know how these kinds of movies go... We'll see how it turns out I guess.

Hah, don't worry I also like Star Wars.

But I hope there's more than hey-look-cool-biotic-effects-going-all-over-the-screen. The choices were the real fun side and I'm wondering how they're going to deal with that.

So, did I get this right: They want to make a movie that centers around pretty much the same plot as the games do except you can't make own choices that will affect the plot and everything is packed into a 2-3hr movie instead of an 100+ hour game series.

Tell me, who was the genius who though this would be a good idea?

At least it has better chances than the Asimov's Foundation movie, which is to be directed by the guy who made Independence Day and Godzilla...

What are you talking about? Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat were both awesome movies

Oh gods Mortal Kombat. I had high hopes for that one. Tombraider was good.

Dowly · 05-25-10, 04:25 PM

I liked MK.

and street fighter...

If a movie is to be done about Mass Effect

it should be done like this :

HunterICX
