Oh how I hope this project never sees the light of day. Not only will it ruin the choice aspect of the series even further than ME3 did by enforcing a canon and letting us know that our Shepard is the wrong one (doubly so for FemSheps), but I am willing to bet that we'd just end up with the series ending with Shepard picking the Synthesh!t option that bioware seems to prize above all else.

There is so much wrong here just like how movie adaptaion of comics and games aren't labeled as cannon or non-cannon based on they're different from the original like Sony's Spider-Man and Paramount's Tomb Raider.  If you're upset about the whole FemShep thing then you shouldn't read the books and Bioware has a very small inolvement in this project.  Whether or not if Bioware prefers the Synthesis opions then its their choice based on how they did creat the games and the general Universe.

 Just as long as it's NEVER announced , the film's director is ( brace yourselves ) ...Ewe Bohl < shudders >

He could team up with M. Night Shyamalan!

EDIT: . . .and it could star Keanu Reaves and Megan Fox!

You and me have to fight now.

But seriously though a Mass Effect movie can work.

I think this project is eventually going to get dropped. They've been "working" on this for far too long now. I'd be surprised if this movie sees the light of day.

if they end up making it a CGI 3D movie it could be decent

I would pay to see this done to any movie, just to watch an epic disaster unfold before my eyes.

No, this movie would try to be serious and be hilarious as it fails

Seriously, anyone who has commented on liking the Wing commander movie has blown any credibility they might have had...
Terrible movie, listed by Time as in the Worst 10 Movie/Games ever made... considered to have destroyed the Space fighter Game Genre (which was on the way out at the time anyway) & only made 11 Million at Box Office, when it cost 30 Mill to make, plus approx 15-18 Mil in marketing costs.

 funny how taste is subjective

in all seriousness, i never played those games.
so i dont really care if the fans of the games dont think it was good enough.
i just loved it for the setting, becouse entertainment in that setting was they very thing i lacked at that time.

love the majorety argument, want to clarify on specifics why it was so bad. besides your taste?

Agreed especially when people can love something without enjoying the original content..  Btw I just wanted to add that one of my best friends from high school loved the movie and the series, which him alone broke Wilyfox's statment.

Seriously ???? Defenders of the WC movie ???
It made 11 Million worlwide, which means at $10 a ticket, 1.1 Million people in THE WORLD bothered to pay to watch it... and of those, half gave it bad ratings (48% negative on Rotton Tomatos) so you guys are in the 500,000 people IN THE WORLD, that likes it.... there are more Left Handed Midgets that tap-dance....

Wing Commander wasn't a bad movie especially when it was a low budget B movie in 1999.  Haters gonna hate.

It cost 30 Million in 1999, & was well promoted, with talk of intended sequels etc... then it bombed big time.... so it became a B movie joke, referenced in Geekdom ever since as "how not to do game based movies".
... Not a hater, just stating the facts.... you might not like the facts, but they're still facts....

I see a lot of hate for little to no reason and I could really careless what the box office of a movie is when I watch a movie.  You do know that its a B movie based on whoe the actors are and how the special effects are used, which is one of the definitions of a B movie.  You should know that a movies making 12 million out of 30 million isn't that big of a flop especially when a real flop would be Gigli making 4 million out of 74 million.  You should also know that video game and comic book movies were heavily criticized in the 90s.  Most of your facts are just opinions especially when it comes to critics.  Btw if you want an example of what not to do with a video game movie is anything done by Uwe Boll.

the Far Cry movie was quite enjoyable, IMHO... which by your criteria means... you must be wrong...
pointing out an even bigger POS in no way prevents WC from being a POS... sorry

Yet I see you're contradicting yourself, which I'm not surprised about.  I love how you bring up the box office numbers especially when Far Cry made around 800,000 out of 30 million.  You won't get unanimous hate for Wing Commander while you will mostly get unanimous hate for Far Cry.

I think the negativity the Wing Commander movie received was way more than half. But... I will shamelessly admit that I liked the movie, in spite of having played some of the games as well. I've combed through some of the negativity the movie received for curiosity sake, and I can see some points being valid: inconsistent storyline to the game, embarrassing spelling mistakes for the keen eye, and perhaps a lack of realism such as ships sinking when they leave the deck (though the games too were guilty of various realism issues as well), and the whole submarine-like drama. Beyond that, however,there is a lot of conflicting criticisms. Some critics praised the story but screamed poor acting. Other critics did just the reverse. Perhaps it is just a taste thing.

There are a lot cheesier sci-fi movies out there, so at the end of the day, I found Wing Commander to be acceptable (I'd rather see Maniac acting like super-retard than Darth Vader screaming a romantic "Noooo" in SW ep. 3, just saying =P). It wasn't the greatest adaptation in the world, but bleh, it filled my taste buds. I was a little younger when I first saw the movie, so perhaps I am biased that way. But I also saw the movie recently after getting into Wing Commander Saga, just to see again, and I still don't find it as bad as some people say. Ah well. To each their own!

[SavagelyEpic]

Ew. No. It wouldn't work. It would just give the series a horrible reputation and just be terrible.

Something like Mass Effect simply cannot be made into a movie without a cast and crew of the very best. And a completely ludicrous budget.

It is all about tastes while I'm surprised that some people aren't saying sci-fi movies are horrible based on what happened in the 70s and 80s.  I remember liking Wing Commander as kid while I see know reason why to hate it especially when there are a lot of bad science fictions movies just like any other genre.

Yet people used to say the same exact things about LotR before that movie trilogy was done, which we found out how successful and well done it was.

That's because LotR was made precisely according to the criteria I just mentioned.

Yet you forget that most of the cast and crew were nobodies or  had little experience, which that would contradict "LotR having thevery best".

Not at all. There is a huge difference between taking a risk in picking extremely talented unknowns (Avengers, anyone? The entire Marvel cinematic universe?) and picking B-rated directors who clearly have a ...suboptimal track record. One is an unknown (A talented unknown). One has an established precedent for performing below par.

Did you watch Avatar or Titanic? Nonames before that, hyped superstars after it.
There is a point in not putting Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt into every Blockbuster.
