Why is this getting made before a halo movie? Don't get me wrong I would love to see a gears movie, but it will prob be as bad as doom. So unfair I want my halo movie :(.

Whoa-whoa...

What happened to Len Wisemen being attached as director...Did he bail for another Underworld sequel??

So, how long before the whole project gets stuck turnaround and inevitably canceled?

Sorry, but if they couldn't make Halo work with Peter Jackson attached to produce, there's just no convincing me that this will ever see the light of day...

@dionion: Definitely. Maybe it's because I'm lesbian... but one thing I can guarantee, Gears is even better if you play it with that perspective tacked on. I had great fun.

@A_Knothole_Resident:

Are you serious?!? I bet the movie will coincide with the release of the second Gears of War installment. 2010 isn't all that far away. And as far as anyone who has ever played the game is concerned, the "war" is far from over...

Okay, I just want everyone to realize that most movies are made for money right now, not artistic integrity, or crativeness or vision. Let that set in. Then add the fact that this is going to be a video game movie. Okay, now add the fact in that the game it's based on has pretty much the lamest story ever. Now exhale.....

I enjoyed the game. It played well. As for the movie? Let's see, Will they PG-13 it? Will they make it R just so they can over-gore it to compensate for having absolutely nothing going on? Will MST3K make a run at Dom and crew?

Gears of War 3 will probably drop a week after the movie. Why spend $10 million on an advertising campaign when you can make a movie?
