All im saying is, the Shepard on the cover should be the Shepard in the movie that's all. Posted Image


And all I'm saying is ummm no.  :happy:  They can show Shepard in the armor with a  helmet on from a distance and just say Hey it's Commander Shepard wonder what's up.  Speaking of Shepard, I'm headed to the good ol 360 and my current Shepard.  We just aren't going to agree.  :D  see you around.


But they HAVE to have Shepard in the movie. If we dont see Shepard solving problems and kicking ass, then its not even mass effect, its just poopoo  :mellow:

This is kind of off-topic, but anyone want to pursue on what races and genders we could have as new squad members for ME 3?

Sarah Brightman would have to be my pick for Samara. She has the talent to bring Samara's grace, dignity, and tragic story to the big screen.

In my opinion, if Shep's going to be a man than I vote for Christian Bale. He's a good actor with a commanding presence and he looks really hot in N7 armor. Matthew Fox is a good choice as well, but Bale seems to be a better fit.



However, if Bioware decides to defy convention and have a FemShep then I want her to either be a blond (because, if I remember right, natural blonds are rare in the ME universe, and Shep should be unique) or (to defy Hollywood convention) an asian woman who is not Lucy Liu. And this Shep should fall for Kaidan in the first then Garrus in the second, after he's matured some.



This is only if they're basing the movie off of the games instead of the universe in general. Personally I would prefer to focus on the First Contact War.

I think to creat a Mass Effect movie would be hard.



First they should decide if Shepard is male or female.

It's a hard decision because male players who played with main character as male,and female players who played with main character as female,wouldn't like to see a completely different Shepard.



Second,it's the story.

At the game you create your own story with your choices.. What will be movie's Shepard choices ?

Will he be paragon or renegade ? Save the council or not ? The Rachni ?



Third,I wonder if they will make it a cgi rendered movie like cartoons that will look too much like the game,or will they use real actors ?



Fourth,thinking of the accuracy of the movie 300 to the comic,I belive Legendary Studios will make Mass Effect movie accurate enough to please the fans.

 no thankyou, since when do opera or theater translate well to movies.  there are exceptions, but they are not the rule, plus samara would not be in the movie unless she was just a cameo.

I suspect hewill be a mix of paragon and rengade in action, learning towards paragon that he easly likable, but I suspect he do a few of the "cruel to be kind" rengade moment... and pistol whipping!

:D

I be surprised if the Rachni and the other side plots make it into the film to be honest. First rule of adapting of any lengthy source material into something considerbly shorter is to keep to the core plot.

On the council and simlar key chocie moments. It be bacicly film tone choice moment, directors choice.

mass effect movie? :P hmmm like the idea, but i don't think it is about shepard, why not an other char.? the mass effect universe is big! and there are many many other spectre's etc, or how about a movie about the first contact war etc. is it explained what the movie is about?still this is just my opinion

ffs this sucks :/ you cant make a movie of Me.. its a movie already and its played different for every person.. this ruins the idea of the game :(


I agree.

 I'd go and see any move based on the ME universe except one based on Shepard, whether its a female Shepard or a Male Shepard.  

I'd go and see a movie about Alenko in Brain camp or Joker going through pilot training, any number of other stories that are available.  But not Shepard's.  

Any video game where you can define your character should not be the basis of a movie where the character is going to be set in stone.  JMO  but I stand by it.  


Again, how would it ruin the idea of the game if Shepard was in the movie??? Details people! WHY? AND HOW? Yes I have common sense but how would having Commander Shepard in the movie ruin anything? I want to see Shepard in the movie! As you can see, I support Commander Shepard!

Seriously, a Mass Effect movie only about a back story and no Commander Shepard? How boring! It needs to be like here is some past events like the "first contact war" or Skylian Blitz" or whatever past event that could show during the movie that we did not see in the game, and then it could fast forward into the present to where Commander Shepard is doing what he does best or somthing like that. I think most of you hopefully get what Im talking about, past to present kind of stuff to show whats going on from what we know in the game, to where it shows things we did not see during the game. I dont think the whole movie should be about some big story we did not see during the game because that would be too boring and theres no Commander Shepard in action.
 
.....In the future when the movie finally comes out... but with no Shepard...
(Family member asking about Mass Effect because he saw the movie but has not played the game) So I hear you played Mass Effect, did you like it? (Me) Oh man, its the best game I have played! (Family member) Well, I saw the movie and I was wondering who was Commander Shepard because I been hearing people gossip that he should have been in the movie.
(Me)Wheres Commander Shepard you ask? Oh, hes not in the movie because most of the so called "fans" did not want him in the movie... (family member) What the...really? Im suprised they did not want to see the main character of the story even though its already in the game, I guess they just did not like him.

Like I said, they might as well put a question mark on Shepards face on the cover of the Mass Effect games.


:) Can't agree but that's ok.  In my vision - they ask me about the game and I say it is great.  I've been playing it for the last 7 years (because it will take a few years for a movie and i've been playing since ME1 first came out)  each time a unique experience and depending on my mood I played Sam Shepard or Hanna Shepard, helping everyone along the way or just focusing on he mission as all important.  You should check it out, now that all 3 are out it's a wonderful way to spend your time.

The movie you ask?  yes, it was great.  The story of how Garius became a Spectre was totally cool.   They referred to Spectre Shepard a few times you should really check out the games.

Or - it was great.  Seeing Joker as a young pilot fighting an uphill battle to prove how good he is.  Ending with his being assigned to the Normandy.  You really should check out the games.  He didn't get a lot of play until the 3rd game but his character is very well done and he had some great lines.
 
Or yes, the movie based on the first book Revelation was really well done.  I hope they do the 2nd and 3rd book, I'll pick up the set when it's released.  Yes the game is great.  You should play it.  I'll lend you one of my copies.

All in ones viewpoint.  This is mine.  :whistle:  


Not to be an A-Hole, but seriously your rehearsing conversations that you would have if the movie was made one of three ways that you approve of because you enjoyed the first two games, and know you will enjoy the third?  How would a poorly done movie affect your gaming experience?  I'm not saying that I expect a poorly done movie, or that I would be happy about it, but I KNOW, if I don't like the movie, or it conflicts with the events of my game It will not take away from my gaming experience.  I know this is hard for some people to fathom, but it can be two different unrelated forms of entertainment, they do not have to refer to each other. 

You said yourself you played as Sam Shepard and Hanna Shepard, do they conflict?  You can't possibly have both Sam and Hanna be in the same game/entertainment experience... because that's all a movie would be.  You were able to keep your games that involved Hanna and Sam separate, why wouldn't you be able to keep the movie separate?  I bet Sam and Hanna look nothing alike, so does it really matter if the Spepard in the movie looks different?

That goes for everyone against having Shepard in the movie, I know 99% of you have played multiple games and probably played differently than you did the first time.  You were able to keep those stories separate, why can't you keep the movie's story separate?

I think there are several possible stories that would do well in making a movie without Shepard, but none/few would be as epic, and none will draw the financial support needed to make a quality movie like Shepard's story can.  That is why Shepard will be in the movie.

well joker should be seth green since he played the voice n is an actor... who'd be cheap as well saving money for the bigger roles like shep.



any1 for the rock? he did pretty good in doom and while he's busy making kids movies this is what he'd be good for



action mixed with story and romance hmm scorpion king any1 ? he could do it and is in shape to do stunts you'd expect from sheppard in a movie ...



just don't give me bruce willis .. I'd be ok with jason statham but not as sheppard he just doesn't fit to me



the kid that did star trek was pretty good .. but I'm expecting looks wise an experienced looking person , he looked young sheppard looks like he's been threw stuff..(b/c he has)



no johnny depp or matt damon not their look or jds style , brad pitt or g clooney could pull it off



tom cruise? Idk I hate him sometimes and he doesnt fit a sheppard look ...

shepard was are imagination in the game, thats what mass effects all about. How are you going to roll shepard in a movie if we all have our own reprisentation of what and who he is?

Its to difficult to make a movie about mass effect if it has so many of the choices you have in the game.

I dont see how they could do it.

Its realy difficult to make a movie from a game. I feel sorry for the bast-erd who has to think of what to do. Well come on this movie is a real big deal to the mass effect community and if the movie i **** then we would be a bit disapointed about a waste of a hour and a half.

or maybe the movie will turn out like the lord of the rings trilogy. three movies and all three hours long. i wouldnt mind seeing that. there hasnt been a sci-fi trilogy since freaking star wars

 I suppose if we are all arguing over the actors then they could make the film a CG film. Because the graphics these days can look almost real. Take the trailer for Mass Effect 2 for example:



Think how awsome it would be if it was made like that with the actors from the game, in 3D! It would suffice, because it looks almost real, obviously it would be better if it was real filming but if we are arguing over the actors then that would have to do lol.

but do you know how long it took to make avatar and how much it cost them? and even then the graphics would have to be 1000x the scale of jungle foliadge. but i see what you are saying at that would probably be the coolist way to do mass effect the movie. they could use all the same charaters and everything

but also shepard is going to be a dude  if hes in it and maybe not everyone would be happy about that

Shepard in the game is "your" imagination, who says it has to be that way in a movie?  You don't want  Shepard in the movie because it won't match with your Shepard?  That sounds selfish and petty.  You can't get over the fact that your Shepard won't be portrayed, so you don't want to see any Shepard.  That;s selfish and closed minded.  I know there are lots of people that feel that way, and they are all being collectively selfish.  Let go of it, it doesn't matter how Shepard is portrayed in the movie, or even if he/she is portrayed at all, IT WILL NOT EFFECT YOUR GAME.

i know how long it took for avatar but the result speaks for itself. :)
and avatar did was an learining process this however will not be, cose all the ingredients are there, also the can build on the experience of the avatar crew.
i think it will not take about 4 years to make the movie.
and no? sci-fi trilogy as of late, i do agree, although there are plenty of nice sci-fi serie's around :innocent:

In my opinion, I think it needs real actors... to convey the emotion and drama.  Sure, CGI could assist with some of the aliens, but the majority should be real actors when feasible.  The only emotion I see cartoons drawing out is little children crying when when bambi's mom died.
