Uh Oh..
So... That just happened?
Oh no
I hope they cast a black man as samus' love interest
This happened in the 00s as well, if anyone remembers.
Cast her.
The IP is already retarded shit for children, should be easy to adapt.
>>737734532-_- I will NOT be watching....
Who will play Miles Mackenzie?
>>737734532yeah I'm not going to watch it
>>737734621Shalom
After the marvel bullshit they did with Prime 4, I have no faith in Nintendo making a good Metroid movie.
>>737734698It's worse when you think about how higher ups from Nintendo Japan approved of it.
>>737734631Elizabeth Debicki.She's 1.9 meters as well.
>>737734532NO BRIE NO WATCH!
Nintendo is a reddit company
Helmet will be off for 95% of the movie
>>737734813You just realized?
>>737734698The marvel shit wasn't even the worst shit they did in Prime 4.
>>737734532>prime4 flopped and shitted>selled the ip to sonyoh no no no
>inb4 the whole movie is just this gay shit
>>737734835WorseIt'll be nanomachines, like Tom Holland's Spider-Man
>Street Fighter>Resident Evil>Mario>Zelda>Elden Ring>Call of Duty>BattlefieldThe era of video game movie slop is here.
>>737734931It needs fanservice just like the original games.
>>737734532Fuck. You guys fucking called it. This is why we got those annoying characters for MP4
>>737734627So did God of WarAnd Sleeping DogsAnd HaloAnd Tetris
>>737734532A metroid movie would fucking bomb. Metroid hasn't been relevant in 20 years. The fan base just isn't there.
>>737734946I can't be the only nigga that watched this in theaters, right?
>>737735036TRVTH NVKE
Metroid having anything resembling actual, speaking characters was a massive mistake. Prime 3 was such a disappointment after finally playing it through Dolphin. Isolation on an alien planet, text logs only, final destination.
>>737735042Judging by the box office, yes, you were.
It seems like the easiest franchise to adapt into a live action film. It just needs to semi-horror action, and they can girlboss all the want because that's what Samus already is. I know it's going to be a CGI slop fest though, all the creatures are going to look fake as shit.
>>737734946Don't forget Donkey Kong apparently
glad the woke era is over or samus would of been blackbut still, metroid is wildly unknown to normies
>>737735171I also forgot about the TLoU and God of War TV series and a Horizon movie.
>>737734532The only way this works is if they take an 'I am Legend' angle where it's literally one actor for like 70% to 80% of the runtime.Not a single female actor is that good.
>>737735128> It just needs to semi-horror action, and they can girlboss all the want because that's what Samus already is. Um sweetie. That movie exists.
>>737734532Haven't they tried doing a Metroid movie over a decade ago
>>737734532people will be mad samus isn't a fat black troon
>>737734532Won't watch probably but I wonder if it will be animated or LA? I think LA would be more interesting but easier to screw up.
>>737734896But it is the part I fully expect them to embrace for a cinematic outing
>>737735230>metroid is wildly unknown to normiesJust went to a mid sized comic con in my city. They had all sorts of IPs up for sale. I can't remember seeing a single metroid. It's just not popular. Even the game was only bought by tendies, not metroid fans. I've never actually met a metroid fan in my life.
>>737734631Does it matter if she's a CG character?
She killed billions
>>737735042
>>737735373They can use AI and do both.
>>737735373Scratch that LA would be bad since she's in the suit most of the time and the other characters are ayy lmaos is it would end up being all CG anyway.
>>737735261yes, they pretty much just use aliens as the groundwork.
As long as they understand Samus is cool it has a chance to be good.
>>737734532Metroid is better suited for movies than video games anyways
>>737734631Brie LARPson, you know it's gonna happen
It should be a stop animation movie with zero dialogue, just Samus going thru environments on some random planet fighting shit
>>737734532nintendo is a movie studio now, deal with it chuds
>>737735540She's going to be a manhating bitch like Peach.
>>737735415i would watch for she
>>737734658Morales Taylor
>>737734772She would be perfect
>>737735542Wtf are talking how is a franchise with minimal dialogue and plot that has a focus on exploration better for a movie then a video game.
>>737735592As long as the 'men' she hates are giant alien monsters will it matter?
>>737734631She is perfect for samus.
>Sonic movie trilogy>Mario + Galaxy movies>The Legend of Zelda movie>Metroid movie>Elden Ring movie>Bloodborne movie>Sekiro animeI don't know whether to be happy or concerned.
>>737735630Samus is also like an acrobat, I'm not sure she's up for the physicality of the role. Can she even do a somersault?
>>737734627It happens with a lot of things. The Metal Gear movie was originally announced years ago with the Skull Island director, who later also got attached to the Gundam movie, which is now a Netflix movie without him attached. Evangelion is "in the works" every few years. Gurren Lagann was "in the works" shortly after it finished airing. Every current meme/fad also has a movie "in the works". Basically some CEO likes something, or maybe their kid requests it, and then they shop around and some intern assistant leaks it.
>>737734532Finally, a kinoflop to surpass Other MHow the fuck can they save it when Metroid reverts to generic space drama under movie lenses?What if they go full tokusatsu and add in hunters and pirate antagonists to pester samus all day long while she's doing basic bitch movie shit?
>>737735705Well it's various levels of quality. I'm sure your younger self would have loved Sonic and Mario. Elden Ring will probably be completely forgettable like the WoW movie.
>>737735261They should Go balls deep bootleg alien movie but ripley is a fucking terminator
>>737735592Samus has every right to hate man with her fucked up backstory though. Her meltdowns are the best part
>>737736110Imagine
>>737736110Reverse full nelson sex with samus
If they made it like Dredd where they don’t take the helmet off, then I’d be fine with it.
>>737734631
>>737734631She's going to be another young actress you've probably never heard of. Probably an origin story like Mario and most super hero intro movies. My guess is that it will be a very loose adaptation of the Manga and the backstory of Other M.
>>737734631Someone unknown, people need to remember that Samus is only 20 in the first Metroid and 21 the entire Prime series, she's only like 25 by Fusion, and she was in the GF at least around 15-18. Samus is pretty young, and most of the good actresses for her are way too old at this point.
>>737736085Depends on the person. Dread is the game that got her personality correct: professional but caring, ruthless but efficient, and doesn't speak unless it's necessary. It makes the extreme moments, like when she actually talks to Quiet Robe and goes apeshit against Raven Beak, all the better for showing her humanity.
Metroid would have to be a space horror movie like Alien or Event Horizon in order to NOT be a generic pile of shit, which further alienates an already niche fanbase. Space adventure laser spam is what Star Fox is for.
>>737736206lol she said the thing lmao based
>>737736421>space horror movieHow can it be a horror movie when samus is basically an action hero protagonist?
>>737734772>That's what you get for acting Debicki, Virginia.
>>737736523I like her already. Nintendo hire this woman.
>>737734532Watch Sony turn it into a live service movie
>>737734631rookie
>>737734631I could imagine Angelina Jolie, or Olivia Wilde.
>>737734532this will kill the franchise for good
>>737734631If it's live action, it's gonna be a young nobody, so she's cheap and can play the roll for at least a decade before aging out.
>>737734631>Wanted Dead>Tax EvasionDo I want to know the Federation's tax policy?
>"Jane Metroid, reporting for duty.">"Welllll this is kindaaaaa a mission to exterminate the metroids sooo yeah that name won't do.">"Ok how about... Sam?">"Sam? My name's Sam too!">"We're both Sam? Us?">"Sam, us and the guys were thinking this mission might be a little too dangerous. You'll need a partner. Better bring the new Sam with you."They'll probably start with something like this then prompt the rest of the script from chatGPT's free tier.
>>737736739George Lucas was serious.
>>737735705the highest rated video game movie on imdb is gran turismo with a 7.1/10. this era of movies is doomed.
>>737736421I think the best way to do a Metroid movie would be like Vampire Hunter D, where for everyone else in the movie its a horror movie, but when D (Samus) shows up, its a goddamn bloodbath but for the monsters.
>>737735624>Miles>Moraleswait
>>737734532Sony should get the rights and be done by the animation team from Kpop, Goat or Spiderverse
>>737734532No duh, there's a Metroid easter egg in Mario Galaxy movie.
>>737735036A movie would absolutely cause the franchise to sky rocket in popularity. A moron would understand this basic principle.
>>737737172ROFL.
Honestly, the idea of what /v/ wants from a Metroid movie really sucks. No, the movie can't be a silent film about Samus killing aliens on a planet while getting upgrades. That may be fun while playing, but it would be boring as fuck as a two hour movie.
>>737734532It's gonna be Zendaya...
>>737737172Not if it sucks, which the story of metroid does.
>>737737063what did nintendies ever do to you
>>737735036but we need her for smash bros
>>737737281>Aliens (cult classic) but with stronk powerful female that even detractors will accept whollyYeah, it's going to be a hit.
>>737737252Exactly. The movie should explore Samus feminine side. Instead of bounty hunting what if she becomes a princess instead?
>>737737172LMAO
>>737737291Sony is already making the Zelda movie.
>>737735230>would ofyou sure you're not black as well?
>>737734621I hope they cast a black man as samus
>>737736206>flat
>>737737252You're right thats why they should just do >>737735261 except Samus does less talking then Ridley with the feds or whoever doing most of it.
>>737736554Same way as Aliens.
>ADAM>Anthony>Raven Beak>Rundas>Ghor>Gandrayda>Myles>SyluxCast them
The movie should be inspired by the manga and show Samus from when she is a little girl until she becomes an adult
>>737737436I hope she voices her concerns like Other M, unironically
>>737737252Yeah if you are a talentless hack, you would make any interesting concept suck.
Ridley jerking off into a metroid and filling it with his dragon seed.
>>737735583Is he fingering miyamutoids prostate?
>>737737445Let's be honest Aliens is barely a horror movie and much more just a action movie with some horror elements sprinkled in.
>>737734532Just do Aliens.Easy.
>>737737331>t. mayor of cope citySci fi as a genre is well past its prime. If your aliens aren't big and blue, no one is going to give a shit about your movie. How'd the other alien films fare? I assume the tv show is a hit with the audience, right?
>>737737252I think a "speedrun" would make a decent popular Metroid movie. Just have some light drama about Samus teaming up with some action stars playing marines, and they go in guns blazing ala The Expendables. The marines can die, bail, or or need rescue and Samus comes in with some flashy boss fight moves and fucks shit up. Could be a cool dumb-fun shorter movie. I think it's a lost cause trying to make a cerebral and suspenseful horror film when you also want mass appeal.
>>737734532There was already a metorid movie by John Woo in development
>>737734727>>737734698>>737734896You niggers are insufferable.Fact: Retro saved the otherwise in development hell slop that Namco was makingFact: MP4 is a much better game than the absolute borefest that is Prime 3Fact: MP4 is one of the best action games of 2025You guys are the same faggots that only play shit like souls slop, Pokemon crap, Monsterhunter shite, and think Red Dead Redemption 2 is one of the greatest games ever. Fuck off, your opinions are not welcomed.
>>737737693>he doesn't know what cult classic means>he doesn't realize Nintendo will sell regardless
>>737734532I hope Myles MacKenzie gets in.
Niggas no, you can't do Alien/Aliens again
>>737737693>Sci fi as a genre is well past its primeWhat does this even mean it's a huge fucking genre. There's plenty of sci fi films coming out to this day with films like project hail Mary being a success just recently.
>>737734637and just the movie fucking DIE?!
>>737737026I could see it being like Aliens tone, with a space colony coming under attack by horrific alien creatures and 50-75% of the movie is Samus as the lone survivor crawling through vents and survival at the skin of her teeth, then discovering a Chozo ruins beneath the colony the aliens/pirates were after and a (good) Mother Brain bio-computer left there gives her access to the suit to terminate the Metroids the pirates are using on the colonists/worlds they invade and how they were an anchient chozo bioweapon and the pirates fucking around with them is going to kill all life in the galaxy if the 'roids are allowed to breed, so now go out and murder all of them. Then the film becomes Predator/Terminator 2.
>>737737252>No, the movie can't be a silent filmHey, it worked for Tarkovsky. But honestly this is a movie that shouldn't be made at all then. Samus isn't even a real character, the games barely have any story, and what's there is extremely generic. All they have is the name, a spacesuit design (inspired by Boba Fett in the first place), one or two alien designs (also pretty generic) and the most interesting parts about it are the Chozo. There is nothing here to take from, and so nothing to make of it, if everything necessarily has to be original, then what is even the point?
>>737737857Project hail mary is a comedy set in space. It's not a sci fi movie like metroid would be.
>>737737936>50-75% of the movie is Samus as the lone survivor crawling through vents That sounds hot. There better be ass shots of her getting stuck in the vents.
>>737734532a perfect metroid mobie would be 3 minutes of expo dump at the beginning, 90 minutes of wordless environmental storytelling, then, after mother brain is cooked, a 5 minutes escape sequence followed by zebes/whereever exploding
Okay, hear me out.Stoner comedy with Samus bumbling through a mission after losing her powers due to some hangover-like mishap, accompanied by a Seth Rogan playing some fat GF marine. Samus plays the "straight man" but ends up the punchline because the planet they're on is so ridiculous and subverts her expectations. Post-credits scene where Donkey Kong and marine-Rogan meet so DK can tell Samus about the Smash Bros initiative.
>>737735592>Is woke>Makes a shitload of moneyNintendo just keeps winning
>>737734532Good morning, I hate modern nintendo
>>737734532Other M: The Movie, here we come!
>>737738056Fine if you want to be picky then iron lung was a success but I've never seen it and you have Dune part 3 coming out in December.
>>737738328I hate you.
>>737735230The woke era isn't over for Nintendo.
>>737738376fuck off faggot EVERYONE hates you
>>737737172Lol, holywood is dying, retard. Gaming is the bigger industry now: big games are more popular than big movies.
>>737734532You just know they're only digging into this shit because they got two big Mario wins in a row.I wonder if "only Metroid fans buy Metroid games" applies to other media?
>>737737753um.... win?
Don't care what anyone says, Prime 4 is good
I'm one of the biggest metroid fans out there and I'd be too embarrassed to see a metroid movie
>>737736669hell yeah that retard expression is perfect
>>737735261Funny how the whole movie is about Ripley saving that girl and in alien 3 the girl is immediately dead
>>737735592Illuminationslop Peach is a hypercompetent "girlboss", but she's not a misandrist
>>737735592I saw the new Mario movie with my son and his friend and it's a Mario adventure and not some girlboss shit. I'm anti woke everything and the new Mario movie is a normal kids movie without offensive shit
>anons itt are worried about Samus becoming a girlbossShouldn't the fear be the opposite? Like instead of Samus being showcased as the badass that she is, the film feels the need to explore her more feminine and vulnerable side? That's what Other M did and you guys reacted to that choice with complete disgust.
>>737738613considering morph ball is ancient lost super technology that no one living knows how the fuck it works, i'd be impressed toohowever, samus works best alone
>>737737252>a silent film about Samus killing aliens on a planet while getting upgrades.Except thats all it should be and would make it unique especially if it was animated like what other movie in recent years does that? otherwise you're just adapting Other M or Prime 4 tier dogshit story but with more dialogue Its not like Nintendo gives a fuck about what a good movie should be otherwise Mario wouldn't be brainrot tier slop, at least a straightforward alien killing action movie would be bearable
did the chorizo give metroid a cloaca?
>>737734631Brie Larson
>>737738950I want her to be a retard in a power suit.
>>737735592Yeah I dont trust Kikewood with a female protagonist in current year, there hasnt been a good action female lead in over a lifetime Niggas still mention Ripley or Sarah Connor like they're new
>>737735415Like a tiger
>>737735682>pic from 2012do you know how walled she is right now?
>>737734631Foy
>>737738349Dune actually has fans. Metroid doesn't.
>>737734835Better yethttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uwHiXJXvl5Y
>>737734631Zendaya Coleman
>>737734621We got just the guy that she forgot.
>>737734532they're dead to me. they added McKenzie to MP4 and brie larson to the Mario movie. it is obvious this shit is going to be pozzed from the get go
>>737735540This, she also shouldn't talk but that'd be pretty impossible for a live action movie to do unless they really put effort into it.
>>737737451Seth Roganbeak. It's an awful enough idea they'd consider it.
>>737740824After years of seeing this gif and all the memes behind it, when finally played the game I came out liking Ashley. There's an "Aliens Marine" feeling from him that I think fits Metroid quite well.
>>737737451>Sylux/ourguy/
>>737741429>There's an "Aliens Marine" feeling from himYou mean that feeling where you can't tell if he's going to get off'd at some point?
>>737735563>stop-motion animationHoly based, you should watch Mad Godhttps://m.youtube.com/watch?v=jas8OABbn0Y
>>737735705Nervous about what?Your super serious hobby will be ridiculed?You will feel embarrassed saying you play video games?Your refined tastes would be tarnished?Your hobby would never be considered a art?
>>737734532Considering metroid is alien for babies it should probably be an animated film. If it's live action it would just be a shitty version of alien. For whatever reason I feel like deltoro would make a fun live action metroid film that would have its own flavour.
>>737737407>implying tallflats aren't perfect
>>737741648Nervous about a wave of normalfag-oriented, mediocre movies.
>>737734532Jesus Christ.Please just fuckin' throw Shuntaro "Eurofaggot Pokefaggot Kike Puppet" Furukawa in front of a firing squad in a goddamn prison already, along with his kike masters that are the real faggots in charge, we all fuckin' know they are.
>>737734532The Metroid series has no vision beyond ripping off horror movies, how on earth are they going to make a movie out of this
>>737737252Ok but what if duke nukem shows up
>>737737252The only kind of Metroid movie I'd allow is one where it's from the perspective of people tracking down a SA-X Samus, Aliens style, while her own character is absent from the film. She'll just be the myth/legend that other characters are aware of.
>>737735415How is she able to see where she is rolling to
>>737734532>>>/tv/
>>737744023Because the player is controlling her, and you can see more than she can.
>>737738084Why are her ass and thighs so fat
>>737744023She memorizes it before curling.
>>737744070Immersion broken
>>737744079Space is cold and she stores her heat there.
>>737744146You aren't literally Samus, and Samus can't do it without your help. That's always been the case.
>>737744172AI slop looks disgusting.
>>737734946Yeah, as opposed to the vidya KINO we had back in the day.>Hitman>DOOM>Postal>Tomb Raider>The fucking Resident Evil ones that are still going to this dayFace it, the slop never went away. It was just biding its time for a fresh wave.
>>737734631Hunter Schafer got cheated out of the Zelda role, she deserves to be Samus. We won't tolerate Nintendo passing on her again.
>>737734532I don't mind lots of attempts at nintendo IP movies. They'll probably all be dogshit but you never know if someone manages to make something goodwith Tanabe yeeted into the sun Metroid might finally have a chance at some kind of story someday too now
I want to BE Samus!
