With Wimmer writing and directing, this movie is gonna suck hard. And as for the so-called "video game curse", the very notion is ridiculous. Unless the curse refers to how crappy writers and directors get attached to these films. Why not get some <b>genuine talent</b> behind these adaptations instead of just employing hacks?

It could be a brilliant opportunity (a chance to create more plots in between metal gear solid 1 to 4) like Hideo Kojima always does. But that's if, Hideo is on board the production.

He'd be excellent in the part. To be frank, he stole every movie he was part of in the past year and the prospect of him leading a film is a salivating one. It was a bit of a shame Bardem had to grab all the spotlight for the award season, since Brolin easily matched him in acting stakes in NCFOM, in the end it was just a case of it being a less 'showy' role which meant he got left out of recognition at awards season. @ Hunter
