Well, rumor has it they're not casting Seth green AS FUCKING SETH GREEN...
So my expectations are not grand.

Yes. Yes. Yes.
Making a movie based on the Mass Effect franchise is a heavy risk, but the priiiiiizzzze.
Honestly I don't care if it fails, as long as someone takes the risk and tries to make something spectacular. And maybe, just maybe, it creates a whole new awesome movie franchise set in SPAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACE!!!! (seriously, we need one of those)

This will be a Micheal Bay style blockbuster with MULTIEXPLOSIONS and close-ups of Tali ass. Shepard will be a rough-shaven U.S MARINE in space bring 'Merica style action straight to the alien terrorist threat. Super fist fights and laser gun blasto dust 'em ups with at least one giant space ship ramming another right up the propulsion engines. Que a moment for some pg-13 love making, and then the hero will save the universe for AMERICA! and all the blessed helpless species that couldn't do it on their own.
This movie will have to appeal not to just the gamer community, but to the transformer/hunger games audience as well, 'cause money. Prepare your anuses for a rock video ride of a movie, and grab your vomit bags and seatbelts for what will surely be the bestest movie of EVAR!

Can't remember exactly, but I think you're thinking of a fan-made project. It's starring Sheploo's default face model-model, right?IllumInaTIma said:

...Can it wait for a bit? I'm busy with trying to think up a film-related word that rhymes with "ibrations".
If it's not at least passable, then I hope it's hilariously bad so I'll at least get something out of it.jklinders said:
I mean, face it; for those of us who've played all the games we'll probably see it anyway.
As someone who thought Fem-Shep was way way way better than the male shepard I have to say I think the movie would be disappointing. Granted I only really feel that way because of the voice acting. Male Shepard is flat and completely lacking where Fem-Shep is just all around incredibly well done.
And I know they want to make it into a movie for the money ... but to be honest there is absolutely no point in doing that because the games already tell the story wonderfully.

Wait, you said "ibrations"? The only word I can think of is "Vibrations".
"Can it wait for a bit? I'm busy fastening the camera to avoid vibrations."
That is just sad.
No! No no no! First off, it'll have male shepard, who is just plain awful, and COMPLETELY undermines the experience of Mass Effect! It's a cinematic experience, yes, but most of my love, and I think I can speak for most fans, comes from the ability to interact with the characters and world and effect them! I'm not going to lie, on paper, the Mass Effect plot is kind of boring. It's a pretty standard "Aliens come, they're evil, shooty shooty". Making this into a passive experience is just a huge, stupid, mistake.
Eh, so what if they make a shitty video game movie, it's not like it would be the first time it's happened(Resident Evil, Tomb Raider, Prince O' Persia etc.) Crappy movies don't detract from the awesome games they are based on, and with a game series as well written as Mass Effect, there may actually be hope that the movies won't completely suck ass.
However despite good writing, the movie is still very likely to be suck. If they wanted to do it right, they should make it an HBO series. That would actually give the plot enough time to develop without feeling compressed and rushed.

Thank you so much for pointing this out to me.Raven said:
I mean, how the hell can anyone else play a character that is quite literally brittle-bone diseased Seth Green in space?
You know, RE1, Tomb Raider and Prince of Persia are generally recognised as the least shitty video game movies. I'd even go so far as to say they were pretty reasonable flicks in their own right. Go watch Bloodrayne or Max Payne if you want to see train wrecks.TheTurtleMan said:
OT: This movie stands to be reasonable. As long as they don't aim to pander to the hardcore fans, they can probably just get on and make a decent, coherent film. The fans have their games, nothing, not even a shit movie will ruin that.
