There hasn't been much information on the Metal Gear Solid movie front since it was announced by Studio Kojima at last E3, other than that it was indeed underway. Now GameSpot brings us news that Sony Pictures Entertainment is working on the project, straight from the mouth of the studio's Vice Chairman Yair Laundau.

"We're working with the Metal Gear guys," Landau told GameSpot following his D.I.C.E. Summit keynote in Las Vegas. "It's a very cinematic game, it really lends itself to movie-telling. But the question is, 'How do you translate Snake's experience into a full arc that conforms to what audiences expect on the large screen?'"

The answer is 2 hours of the naked Raiden shuffle.

He also spoke to GameStop about a possible EverQuest movie from a very prolific, very unnamed director, though I doubt anything any Hollywood big shot could create could ever top the masterpiece that is Dungeons & Dragons: Wrath of the Dragon God.
