Metal Gear Solid Movie Confirmed

Posted by ryuzaki0 on Wednesday May 10, 2006 @09:44AM from the no-uwe-boll-thankfully dept.

Gamespot has word that the Metal Gear Solid movie project is a reality. All we really know is that Uwe Boll will not be directing. From the article: "After assuring readers at length that German director Uwe Boll will not have anything to do with the project, as rumored, Kojima talked about the film. 'I have received many offers to adapt Metal Gear Solid, It has taken a long time, but we have finally settled on an arrangement,' said the revered designer. 'False facts aside, a movie project is underway. I have finalized a Class-A contract with a party in Hollywood.' Kojima did not mention the name of the party, a release date, or any potential directors or stars."

What, like they did for Titanic? Oh, wait...

Or maybe how serious and thoughtful Harry Potter is?

Or perhaps you're thinking of Spider-Man? Mission Impossible? James Bond?

If they can get a half way passable script, director, and actor, and maintain the spirit of the series, I don't think we need it to be serious; it can have all the cheese and melodrama of James Bond and be quite a successful movie.
