I hope J.J. Abrams does get involved. All the lens flare could cover up questionable cg.

CYNICAL ANALYSIS
Proposition : Games to Movie adaptations fail unconditionally.

Exhibit A - Wing Commander

Christopher "Maverick" Blair
Default sample : Mark hamill
Analysis : Well versed in the genre, well liked by the target audience
Failed substitute : Freddie Prinze Jr.
Analysis : Feeble attempt to attract demographic that traditionally reject genre (females)

Major Todd "Maniac" Marshall
Default sample : Tom Wilson
Analysis : Decent comic relief
Failed substitute : Matthew Lillard
Analysis : Failed attempt by executives to grasp concept of funny

Test subject - Mass Effect

Commander Shepard
Default sample : Mark Vanderloo / Mark Meer
Substitute prediction : Mark Wahlberg
Analysis : Actor unfamiliar but interested in genre not in story resolution

Jeff "Joker" Moreau
Default sample : Seth Green
Substitute prediction : Dane Cook
Analysis : Seth Green's schedule on robot chicken in conflict with project

Result:
As would be expected with adaptation without dedication.

but...

Hope is the last thing to abandon the heart.

@FutureBoy81: awesome suggestions!

I know I'm in the minority here but I never liked the 'box' Shepard. The marine crew cut, the boxy face... just doesn't seem to have the depth to be believable. Is that who we players see ourselves as?

@Noir201: Interesting... I didn't hear that about inspired by Blade Runner. Comparisons made, yes, but by the press or fans. Deckard was an antihero, Shepard is... well, the regular kind.

Thanx Man

I see what your saying thanks i think they would both be good choices, but i would prefer Oldman playing the sneeky villian after his performance in "Lost in space" he was the only salvagable thing in that debacle ....

I just figured Murray because he's more used to playing the ineffectual bureaucrat whose conspiracies seldom amount to any significant menace. Gary Oldman commands much more respect and would feel wasted on a weasel like Udina. Dr. Smith, for instance, became a full-blown boss fight in the aforementioned debacle. But I agree that his presence is amazing and he could play anything.

Commencing tangent: Incidentally, I feel Gary Oldman is the only man living who could bring Revolver Ocelot to the screen faithfully.
Tangent over.

Yes, at least there I could rest easy knowing the movie is all just a bad really long dream sequence...

THE VOLUS ASSASSIN!!!!! i would pay to a volus assassin n the movie!!!!!

[xensung]

They would only make a movie of content already produced. They have created a successful franchise, BioWare would not hurt the future of the franchise by turning other property over before they have used it. The lore will still be there intact for future games... Plus it's going to be a male Shepard movie, and yes you will go see. And if your lucky they well surround the project with good writing, directing and acting.

With that said I won't see it if Walberg is in it.

Aliens

would be executed through special effects and extras, but voiced by  their
normal voice actors.

And seriously people, stop suggesting they
cast Mark Vanderloo with a Mark Meer voiceover, that would look
idiotic.  I'd take acting ability over looking exactly like the
character any day.

Agree!

I second this almighty cast, BW you guys should take note on this one.

I dunno, there aren't previously established performances for the actors to imitate.  If only Shatner was forty years younger...

Didnt you like any of his work ?

[iisan7]

@Marduk_Tyrant: I was really excited about the movie today... until you mentioned Wing Commander. wow. Now I actually feel sick. BioWare's involvement makes that outcome unlikely though, we can all hope.

[aaron baba]

Please Bioware: my main request is that Jack Wall and his associate's wonderful score carries over into the film.

Star Trek. I liked that one. He broke my heart with Alias and that other popular show..

I don't get the love for Abrams. Everything I've seen of his, which isn't much admittedly, was decent, but not spectacular. The space battles in Star Trek were pretty good, but he would need to pull the damn camera back so we could actually see the action.

 LOL, It's funny, pretty much all of the comments here are about everyone NOT wanting Shepard in the movie . I agree! it would wreck the game because each Shepard is different! Bioware and movie writers please take note! lol. AND DEFFO DO ABOUT THE FIRST CONTACT WAR! or one of the books! Or a new story maybe with a batarian raid or slavers or sumthin 

I'm not trying to call you out personally CG50, but I've heard this same sentiment a lot and I heartily disagree:

The movie can not possibly "wreck" the game. It is literally impossible. What's it going to do, get into your computer..and somehow hack into all your game files and make the game terrible? The two are entirely separate entities.

Suppose the movie is terrible; how will that affect how much you enjoy the game? How could it affect it at all? How many brilliant books and games have been put into lackluster cinema? Oodles. I don't like..for example..Harry Potter any less now that I've seen the horror that is Daniel Radcliff's acting. The books are still completely the same books as they were before.

BIGGEST FACEPALM IN MY ENTIRE LIFE.

Jesus, BioWare, what the heck. ME doesn't need a movie, it already is one for christ's sakes. Cash cows.

Epic QFT.

Unless the movie stars someone besides Commander Shepeard, this will fail hard in my eyes. Seeing poster boy Shepard as the hero would suck, as I would rather see my own Shepard, as I'm sure everyone else would rather see their own Shepard.

If this is a prequel or something that expands the universe, then alright, if you must. Otherwise, I beg you bioware, don't put Shepeard in this movie.

[ComaGrey0]

It's already been said in various terms, but I feel it necessary to mention that when I was watching the Star Trek reboot I remember saying at least five times, "If this were Mass Effect the movie, I would have no problem with it at all. It might even be really awesome. The lens flares (which I would learn later via the commentary were often flashlights shone deliberately into the camera from odd angles), the color blue, the sleek silvery architecture . . . it's like Trek Effect, or something . . ."

Those words haunt me as the reality of this thing spirals imminently toward us.

Let's not scrape the bottom of the barrel until we've at least scraped the sides.

i cant tell if your being sarcastic or agreeing with me or your just being rude xP lol
