I bet the story makes no sense

>>82631207
But MGS5 had no story.
>>
>>82631135

there really is no point in adapting Metal Gear since

1) all jokes aside it is pretty much already a movie series/long running tv show, you can literally just watch the cutscenes on youtube if you just want to see the story

2) what makes the series special is how it uses it's gameplay to convey it's themes, there is no cinema version of changing your controller port to beat mantis or having your psyche meter go down the more people you aggress against

Please don't, please don't let Hollywood touch our videogames and make something we'll all regret.
The people at Hollywood have a process of making videogame movies:

>Announce the videogame movie and wait for the criticism
>Listen to the criticism and respond to it directly, reassure all the people that "It will be good this time" and that the actors are all """huge fans""" of the source material
>Point out just how much they related stuff to the source material and how much effort they put in
>Hype the shit out of the movie
>Release trailers that look like shit but are too ambiguous to represent the whole film
>Film comes out, it's fucking garbage and you fell for it

They've done it TWICE with the Hitman series, and how the fuck do you fuck up a Hitman movie? There's a lot of things in Hitman that you could make a movie out of.

You really think they'd make a good Metal Gear Solid movie? You really think they'd have any idea what the hell Metal Gear Solid is? They clearly didn't know what Hitman is.

It's a fucking puzzle game.

>>82631262
It had a story, the story not having an ending was the problem. It was like a good tv series that got cancelled after season 2.
>>
>>82631174
is he okay?
>>
>>82631135
For all the shit MGS gets for being "movie games", the story wouldn't work in any medium besides videogames, especially for MGS2.
>>
>>82631182
But that's the best stuff.

He tried to an hero but missed the brain wich is the only vital organ above the throat.

You could easily make a good movie out of it.

>Cloning facility makes clones
>Clones are kinda shit
>One of the clones is made just right
>The 47th clone kills everyone and escapes
>The clone shows up at the doorstep of a contract killing company
>The clone assassinates high profile targets with ease
>Contract killing company is very suspicious of this man who has come out of nowhere, has no name and is their number 1 hired killer
>Turns out some clones escaped the facility and are working for rival companies

The games do have a back story.

did he put the barrel under his chin here? i'm trying to figure out how he managed that..

> we were supposed to finally understand why BB went from being the hero at the end of Snake Eater to a terrorist threatening the world with nuclear weapons
>instead we got MGSV

I guess Kojima got to spent hours hanging out with his waifu, so at least someone got something out of it.
>>
>>82631422
When you edit out the stupidest trash MGS1 is basically Die Hard in a nuclear facility and MGS3 is basically Bond in a jungle.

>>82631319
The director's a huge Metal Gear fag. I still expect it to be fucking awful though.

The stupid trash is what makes MGS good tho
>>
>>82631502
The tapes in the end SOOOOOORT OF gave us that. It pretty much implied everyone was trying to save the world, but in their own fucked up way and every was on one side or another while trying to make things work.
>Boss
>BB
>Sigint
>Cypher
>Skullface
They all had the same goal essentially, but ended up opposing each other. BB being a "terrorist" was a matter of perspective.

Utopia did it better desu though.

>>82631355

You could just make it a straight forward thriller about a hitman who infiltrates public and secure locations using disguises killing high profile targets in elaborate undetectable manners. Think The Day of the Jackal. That's basically the tone of the games, not retarded over the top shoot em up action movies like they've made with the two movies.

Kong was a pretty competent movie.

The Mechanic movies are better Hitman movies than the Hitman movies kek.

I don't even really like Jason Statham and I thought those were some fun little movies.

>Hello killing agency? Yes,I am a clone. I didn't mean to show up on your doorstep unannounced but I have a talent for assassinating high profile targets with ease. Anyone who has ever played my games will tell you it's easy peasy,no busy work no charades or fake room service or flower delivery. Just rooty tooty point and shooties.

>>82631466
That's lame. Even Judge Dredd(1995) had a better angle on clones.

It's already a film series to begin with.
>>
>>82631355
Then make it a thriller. Make him like the terminator. The story would revolve around someone else and he'd just show up and effortlessly kill people and the main characters would have to solve it. They're not exactly on opposing sides, but the characters are law bound to stop Agent 47. Make it a cat and mouse kind of thing.
>>
>>82631319
You forgot the beginning steps:

>studio hires a no name/small name director
>market research shows people don't care about videogame movies
>"I have a brilliant idea" executive comes in
>"Wat if we make it like every other movie so the normie audience can relate"
>yuo a genius
