This is the perfect source material for an awesome film. With the right director this could be amazing.

Somebody on another forum had a cool idea and said that on the poster it should say “Would you kindly see this movie.”

I think that would be pretty cool as a tag line or something

Also, I think that the only problem with the film would be that the only thing we know about the protagonist is that his name is Jack and that SPOILERS – was created in a lab by Fonatine and Ryan.END SPOILERS

Most of the time, you pretend that its you killing the Big daddies.

Good point Tiff K.

I just finished the game going thru killing every little one that I could. (Its is a game after all). Now I’m going back thru it again saving every little one.
So far trust me you get even more adam this way. And hopfully a more cheerfull ending.
They could make this a cool film it does have a cool story (would you be so kind) however it would be a very graphic film especally when a Big Daddy kills with his drill bit arm. And the Hospital level was pretty grim.

Let’s just hope we don’t get a film centered on taking pictures of the freaks in Rapture. Hahaa.

My bro’s a big fan of bioshock game and I find it actually cool even though I’m not into computer games that much. I think that the plot would be a great story line for a movie (omg, it is quite shocking that i am actually saying this about a video game, since most video game movies are yuck). It’ll be better if the writers don’t follow the exact storyline and create something of their own since as they say, every player plays the game differently so it would be possible or a whole different story or ending. I can’t wait for it!

There is enought material in the game itself to make a feature film. Unlike other first person shooter a great deal was dedicated to the story-line and characters in the game. Of course the actual action of playing the game was very involving and was part of the magic.

I believe this has more chances of being a good movie than Halo will have in 10,000 years.

I love my first person shooters but i actually found the game, though beautiful to look at, quite boring; not as exciting an experience as Half Life or Doom 3.

Speaking of which; why is this getting made into a film and Half Life isn’t?

I loved this game a lot. In fact it’s one of my favourites, but the story telling technique that’s used is a very subtle one that unravels the story as you play. No cutscenes or interruptions just story as you go. The big “twist” in the story is especially cool because you’ve been controlling the character the whole time.

The very power of the story is built on its interactivity and so I really am nervous about it becoming a movie. Gore Verbinski attached though, suggests that it could have a blockbuster sized budget which could go far in creating mood and atmosphere.

I’m looking forward to seeing it out of sheer curiosity but I’m not willing to say this will buck the trend of bad video game adaptations.

Also with Ridley, the Big Daddy fight scenes could be more real and brutal as seen in Gladiator. I’m afraid with Verbinski it will just be dumbed down and full of CGI and special FX…

When Ridley is good, he is great. When he is bad, he is shit.

If the good Ridley did it – I totally agree with you.
