Urban Xperience Posted February 12, 2007 Posted February 12, 2007 Oo I dunno about this one. As fantastic as the idea may seem, virtually ALL VG-based movies are a load of shit. With the exception of Mortal Kombat, (the first one that is...hee hee) look at Street Fighter, Resident Evil, Doom, Silent Hill all shit. As for the choice of Snake himself, Huge Jackman indeed (for the MGS3 era) but for MGS2 and beyond, I would cast Mel Gibson. He's old, sarcastic and a got a mean punch. Perfect... Quote
Raziellink Posted February 12, 2007 Posted February 12, 2007 As awesome as Hugh Jackman would be, we all know who snake really has to be played by.Steven Seagal. Whos with me? But really, Hugh Jackman really is the best actor for Snake imo, as well as liquid. Hugh Jackman as Solid Snake, and Steven Seagal as Luiqid. Hugh Jackman wouldn't stand a chance though, Steven Seagal never dies, or get's hurt. Quote
AMT Posted February 12, 2007 Posted February 12, 2007 I'm not going to get my hopes too high, as I know they'll be crushed when this comes out. If not, I'll just be that more entertained by the fact that it actually was a good movie. Perhaps it could cover part of the story of the MSX games? That's the one era we have yet to see in any sort of accurate detail, aside from the previous missions text in MGS1. Quote
Viol8tor Posted February 12, 2007 Posted February 12, 2007 Chuck Norris as Solid Snake, *cough*. Seriously do, Hugh Jackman as Snake, Brad Pitt as Liquid. I hope Sniper Wolf is in the movie, mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. Quote

Urban Xperience Posted February 12, 2007 Posted February 12, 2007 Jack Nicholson as Campbell!! Just watch 'A Few Good Men' Quote
The Author Posted February 12, 2007 Posted February 12, 2007 That's a great idea, actually! Ah yes, we could finally see the terrifying Zanzibar Land radioactive mutant hampster... Quote

Ffej Posted February 12, 2007 Posted February 12, 2007 Does anyone else think David Hayter looks enough like Snake to pull it off? I mean, he's got the voice. If not Snake, then he looks a good deal like Otacon when he has glasses on. Or, Hayter could pen the screenplay. I mean, come on. The guy's a screenwriter AND the voice of Snake. He should be in the movie somehow. Quote

He should be in the movie somehow. Yeah I was thinking that. Because at VGL I saw and he had long hair and facial kinda gruff looking. And what made it better is that he had a bandana on. Did sorta look like him. Quote
Strike911 Posted February 12, 2007 Posted February 12, 2007 Viggo ain't a bad choice imo. Kinda weird, but I think he could pull it off. I think Jackman could do decently.... I think it would be awesome if Big Boss was played by Kurt Russell... I hope Raiden isn't in it, and if he is, I hope he's just a minor mention. I would really like it if they make a lot of minor references throughout the entire film that pay homage to tiny minor situations and events in the game. That would rock. And if they mentioned Zanzibar Hamsters.... hell... the movie would deserve an award. Quote

Vivi_Rules_Pie Posted February 12, 2007 Posted February 12, 2007 Don't get me started on how good Silent Hill wasSteven Segal needs to be in this film Yes, please, for all our sakes, lets not get anybody started on how good (or not so good) that film was. Quote
Decoy Octopus Posted February 13, 2007 Posted February 13, 2007 Steven Segal needs to be in this film I have to assume that people suggesting Steven Segal, Chuck Norris, etc. need to be in a MGS movie are joking around. Otherwise, they're being asinine like it's nobody's business. Quote
Dyne Posted February 13, 2007 Author Posted February 13, 2007 Well the producer has been on a variety of projects (Dark City, Blow, Thirteen Days, Boogie Nights, Ghost Rider, Zathura, Blade II and many more) so this could definitely go either way. I think this has the best chance of being good because MGS itself is very cinematic and could easily translate onto film. As long as they don't restrict CODEC moments to just the talking head portraits.So, who should play Snake? I say Hugh Jackman. This guy is a great actor, action star, bad ass, and with some costume design and makeup, he can look like Snake. I think they ought to have David Hayter do it. It would make sense. I mean, he's the voice of Snake, and I'm sure he could act just as well as he does while doign voice over work. Also, if I'm not mistaken, he has been in a few films himself...It's Wikipedia, I know, but at least it gives you an idea. Quote
Specter Posted February 13, 2007 Posted February 13, 2007 I dunno, Hayter's face is a little too short. Then again, Mortenson's face is long... IMO, Tom Cruise looks like Snake the most, but I really wouldn't want him to play snake. Really though, the only thing they need to get down for Snake is the voice. Also, they totally need to refer to the audience at one point. Quote
Blake Posted February 13, 2007 Posted February 13, 2007 Hugh Jackman Hugh Jackman Hugh Jackman! When I first saw X-men, I thought of him more as Solid Snake than Wolverine. Well, that's an exaggeration, but you get my point. Quote

I like Hayter, but I saw him " acting " in the Guyver movie on SciFi network one day, and it was ridiculously cheesy. I don't know if it was just him or the movie in general, but it wasn't good........ it was kind of cool though because you can hear Solid Snake's voice coming out every once in a while. Quote
linkspast Posted February 13, 2007 Posted February 13, 2007 Also, they totally need to refer to the audience at one point. Yes it be cool if they said the other movies that the theater was playing, or something much like Psycho mantis reading your Memory card. Quote

Yeah i got that one on DVD. His acting suits the cheesy-ness of the movie, but i doubt he could pull of a good snake (besides the voice, naturally ) Quote
Urban Xperience Posted February 13, 2007 Posted February 13, 2007 I tell you what EasyP... Steven Seagal looks alot like that Dan in your sig lol. Oh yeah and apparently, the voice of Colonel Campbell (dunno his name), has done voice acting for Cow & Chicken... well I thought it was hilarious....lol. Quote
