Metal Gear

Why hasn’t there been a Metal Gear film? Who would you cast?

i dont know

can you repeat the question?

Mostly because merc action flics are taboo, and the best setting for one is outside of the games' narratives in a tangential sideplot -- Bush Wars, Soviet Afghan War, Tunisia ect. And it would probably need to have a heavy dose of camp, and negotiating that tone line is tricky.

>cast
Judging by that pic, the Captain America guy wouldn't be the worst, maybe Keanu. Robert Duvall if he was younger for elder Boss/George Sears from MGS IV.

Because it has such a shitty and convoluted plot that it would not be worth putting into film.
Snake Eater is the only game in the series that makes any sense. That would be the only game worth adapting.

Like all video games, it's derivative garbage full of tropes stolen from film and tv, written by mental midgets. The story isn't even that important, it's just a vehicle for the gameplay, which should come always first.

This

because the only good one was ripped off of escape from ny and mgs is basically a movie

Snake eater is the best one, what are you talking about Escape from NY

Because I don't want a Snake who isn't voiced by David Hayter

Never played it, what's the plot about?

There's already a MG movie, it's called Metal Gear Solid 4 and it fucking sucks.

MGS series always had shitty gameplay, it's only successful because of the story, lore and characters

It should be an anime, and we all know it.

The government is bad

>it's derivative garbage full of tropes stolen from film and tv, written by mental midgets.

But that's what films and television are too.

Only Tom Hardy can play Snake. Though there are other actors who look the part better, I legit think he’s the only one who could both be Solid and Liquid at the same time

They won't make any more video game films because gamers only torrent.

Also the game is already a movie

>Whats Escape From N.Y?

a terrible movie

he's already done the role so based Kief of course

The story is too ridiculous to be filmed for starters

totally not the human torch i will cast someone younger to play solid in his prime.

ummmm... there are bipedal weapons platforms called "metal gears"... and people sneak around... and a guy was cloned a few times... and there's a shadow government...

then why there is already a 3rd SH movie on the way?
baka sempai.

>it's just a vehicle for the gameplay,

The gameplay up until MGSV was literally just a vehicle for the cutscenes

MGSV is set in Afghanistan.

there's no need for one

I agree but i unironically think chris evans could do it too. Snake has that retarded fish out of water aspect that chris could pull off

Op here. Im actually watching the movie versions on youtube right now

Hes a clone though, so even a 40 year old could play someone in his 20’s

>Tom Hardy can play Snake.

Only a terrible actor who was once a Male model can play Snake?

>solid snake
Should have practiced social distancing
