I didn't put this in the original topic cause I want to be heard. This is not what Mass Effect is. ME1 was the best game i ever played. It had that magic to it, now I hate it. And don't tell me otherwise because you are wrong. This ticks me off something awfull.
How do you feel? Make a couple more new threads about this same thing, I don't want this "movie" to happen. I don't want it to be ruined for me.
Mass Movie? Sellouts.

The hell can it be ruined by a movie?
Mass Effect is centered around your choices, and attempts to be an unique experience for each person. Movies can't do that. Do the math.

Movies done by Uwe Boll and those that don't stay true to the source material (or a combo of both) don't count.

Why are people whining that it is going to be made a movie? If you don't want to see it, don't see it. Waah.
On a side note, I am glad the movie is coming out. It's going to get my $10.

Name one movie that stays completely faithful to its source aside from War of the Worlds. THAT War of the Worlds, not the one with the six-legged things or the one with Com Truise.

Dead or Alive. Mortal Kombat. Street Fighter. Alone in the Dark. Max Payne. BloodRayne. Hitman. Postal. Doom. Who thinks those were good?

Because it sure as hell won't canonize a certain set of actions and won't bring screaming fanboys to the forums yelling "THAT'S NOT THE GUN SHEPARD USED IN THE MOVIE!" /sarcasm

I really don't like the idea of a movie, but I will be at least I bit happier if it doesn't include Shepard. Seriously if it does I don't know what I'm going to do.

No one, but we're not under the impression that this is going to be done by the same writers, directors, producers or studios that made those abominations.
Actually, I take it back. I did enjoy the first Mortal Kombat.

I'm sure you'll have the same opinion when BioWare listens to them like they listened to Garrus/Tali fans and destroy every non-canon choice in favor of the canon ones.

Not that simple. I'm curious by nature. As soon as I find out something I have to check it out, no matter how ridiculous it is.

<--- doesn't care if ME becomes canon. Infact, I'm hoping for it. Otherwise too many choices and outcomes of every previous games have to be added to each new ME game and that would be tedious. shrugs. I'm just glad it's being cannon.
Just like KOTOR became.

Yeah, except that there will only be one more game which imports the savegames so far: ME3. Mass Effect is based on being YOUR game, YOUR universe, influenced by YOUR choices. Take that away, and you have your run of the mill space shooter.

Movies and video games simply don't translate into one another - their story structures are inherently different and incompatible, and that's why it's not very likely that we'll ever see a truly good video game movie (or movie-based video game).
In a movie, the story typically follows a 3 part arc. Very roughly, the first part sets the story in motion, the second part presents a series of challenges for the characters to overcome, and the third part sees either a successful or unsuccessful resolution for act 2's challenges. In a good film (and in most other storytelling mediums), the characters are usually pretty worse for the wear by the time they reach Act 3.
In a video game, the characters are constantly on the offensive, and constantly winning. The player has to consistently accomplish goals in order to reach the next level. Failure on a given challenge means that the participant has to start over until they get it right - so as far as the narrative is concerned, the protagonists are constantly winning every obstacle they're faced with. Consider Empire Strikes Back - but instead, the Rebels win on Hoth, Luke masters everything Yoda has to teach him, Han Solo is able to conquer Cloud City and Vader gets dominated in the climactic lightsaber duel. Sounds kinda ****ty, doesn't it?
This doesn't mean that one storytelling structure is better than the other... it just means they're incompatible and shouldn't be mixed.
TL;DR - Mass Effect should not be a movie and please don't make one ):
