I hope it’s a ruse of sorts, where they’re merely going to reshoot whatever shots they’d already released publicly in their movie trailer. What a waste that’d be otherwise, to throw away three years’ worth of footage. Well, either way, given the controversy generated by Fox’s aggressive move against the fans, I suspect a lot of people can’t wait to see what Gibson and his team come up with, and surely more than a few will be hoping that it’s better than the multi-million dollar flick Fox currently has in production.

It could get really creepy at times, and the music really helped to sell that aspect. The game was very stylistic, I only worry that the movie will come off as generic and easily swept aside other wise. I also hope they get creative with the bullet time, or look at it from another angle, approach it cleverly. At this point it's so much a gimmicky device, I wish it would just die, but, wouldn't really be Max Payne without it. I really hope they nail the atmosphere and the tone the game had.
