|
 |
Thats right. John Woo is set to direct for this film. Half Life 2 can suck my dick, this is a real mans tactic game turned movie. Go to http://www.imdb.com Just type in Rainbow Six under titles. Its set for 2006.
Anyone think of good cast for this movie?
Maybe Harrison Ford as the President. John Leguizamo as Ding Chavez... and Tom Berenger on the sniper team.

I smell that it's based off the book NOT the video games!!!!
Oh and HL2 is not tactical at all so leave it out of this cause it's a completely different game.

Yes I know you said HL2 wasn't tactical but you're acting like people think it is. If they do they're dumb.
Oh and btw: I, Robot-BOOK Sum of All Fears-BOOK.

HL2 people consider it is... same with Counter Strike. I mean shooters do have tactics in it. Theres been soo many mods to it its not even funny.
I-Robot = MAME and SNES game.
Sum of All Fears = Tom Clancy game. It didnt follow the same story line as the movie except for bomb terrorist attacks.

John Woo will fuck this up... badly!
He does make awesome action movies but ever since he moved to 'American hollywood' he added all these shitty trademarks. Slow motion... soft music during action sequences... doves flying before an action sequences... FUCK!
give a rainbow six movie to Mann or Scott (the good Scott not the bad one  ) heck even get Mamet to write a script/direct it  I would love to see a rainbow six movie by Mamet heck I’m sure even stone would make it good

Yes they've been made into games but the games were based off the books. The movies don't follow the games they follow the books. In the credits you see Based on the novel by .....
Also Sum of All Fears game came out after the movie.

I liked both adaptations of the novels. One more than the other maybe because I’m a sci-fi fan. Even though the movie strayed away from the details of the novel it still managed to entertain. That's why I hate adaptations they either cut off some important parts or do something that a cult-fan of the book hates and then an online argument of how bad the movie was. How this... how that. Movies were and are still being made to entertain. Some entertain us more and some less. But it's all determined by taste. This girl I know reads these big books like lord of the rings and Harry potter ( yeah I laugh at her too) and she said that movies did the books no justice at all. They changed harry’s character and something and in lord of the rings they removed important scenes or some metaphoric shit. Mind you I wasn’t listening much. As any man I was using my psychic abilities and my elite x-ray vision to remove her voluptuous blouse and peek through her bra. God how I miss high school. 
Still John Woo should team up back with CYF and create another mucho grande man flick Fuck! I just ooozed when i saw replacement killers (even though it's not a JW movie) fuck I love it when a man is able to stop friction with the tip of his gun... that's so fucking sexy!

Yo if you want to get technical about it sure. But isnt game first than movie franchise the key? There was books out on alot of games before they came out. Same with movies. Look at the Doom series. The books came out before the game did. Go to http://www.amazon.com do have every single book ever made into the doom series. But were talking about game to movie. Before you can do a movie or a game, everything has to be written out. So it shouldnt really count.

You can create a game on lets say about a boy who becomes enslaved to an alien device that allows him to control time. Uwe Boll might think it's an awesome game and turn that into a movie. No book written. SOAF movie was based on the book and the game was based only on the title. I-Robot was based on the book and so were the games. The games had no influence on the movie(s).

But if you're thinking about Rainbow Six, I Robot, Sum of All Fears they were all taken from the books. The books weren't based on the games like the Doom books. Also the Doom books did come out after the games not before. Check again. Doom came out in 93. The first book came out in 95. In case you didn't know Tom Clacy is a HUGE author. The Rainbow Six game came out around the same time maybe a month or two later than the book. Sum of All Fears game came out around the same time as the movie. The book for that was done in I think the mid 90s. The I Robot movie was based on the book. I forget when that came out but it's been out for a long time. Hell I didn't even know there was a game for it.
But back to Rainbow Six. It's based on the BOOK not the game.

Are you sure about the Doom part? Im confused. I'm pretty sure that Carmack had a huge idea before putting his work into game. I-Robot? Never heard there was even a book, but I do know that when a movie comes out, they do a book BASED off of the movie. Now I did hear stuff about the new Doom movie. Its supposed to be based off the books, or given a different story... not like the game. But see, I'm not really trying to involve the books topic here... its between movie/game. I-Robot did have a game before the movie, thats true. Rainbow Six the movie has to be based off the game. Look at the characters. Especially for such a lead role like Ding Chavez. But what I think their going to do for that is borrow most elements from the game, and some from the novel. Because lets face it... you need drama in a movie. All ideas are drafted from written scripts. Whether its a game or movie. Now the Sum Of All Fears game was somewhat different from the movie because there was no Affleck in it. It was basically Rainbow Six operatives in a certain sense like in a Rogue Spear atmosphere.
I might be wrong about the Doom books tho however, I'm just pretty positive they came out in 92 or 93. Because the last book came out before Final Doom. It didnt have the final struggle that the game had at the last chapter. What happened to the jungle environment? And the Marine had a name. Thats why I'm saying that cant be true. They woulda put Cpl. Flynn Taggert in as the name of the marine.
Dont forget after you write a book it takes months to publish and get released. Same thing like a movie. A movie has to get filmed, and produced. Theres soo many stages. So if it was released even in 93, it was written a few months earlier. I dont mean to get carried away with this, but I'll check more into those doom books.

But anyway... lets stay on topic here. This threads about Rainbow Six. Who do you all think should be casted and what should the story be about? I'll post back later on a cast and storyline.

Do you even read books? You act like they have no drama or action in them and are just boring.
I Robot was done with short stories in the 50s from what I've heard.
And for the last time the Rainbow Six movie is being based off the movie NOT the game! The book has the same characters as the game cause the game was based off the book. Hell go to imdb.com and look at the Rainbow Six movie. Under writing credits it says Tom Clancy (Novel). Also funny that you said about SOAF game that it was like Rainbow Six in a Rogue Spear atmosphere. They're both Rainbow Six games! I know you haven't read the Rainbow Six book so pick it up and read it. Tom Clancy is a very popular author. He doesn't make games.
The Sum Of All Fears game was totally different from the movie. They're not even close to being related.
And about the Doom books. I got their date from Amazon.com like you said to go to.

Ummmm Lord of the Rings? Stephen King films? All based on books. Sure they're might be some changes made but it's still based on the book.

Yeah r6's have stories... you're team of elite swat members and it is your job to serve and protect those in need of assistance. Heck, watch swat... replace the names of those characters with those in the games and you have a pretty good r6 movie
JW's only good north american movie was face off the rest sucked... mi2 wasn't great but it was good cruise ass raped him but... maybe sooner or later woo will realize that slow motion fast paced action sequences suck!

Nah, didnt say the books were no drama. In fact they are. I'm just saying that Woo is probably going to combine action with drama. Combine elements from both. That would be good. Yea, with Sum Of All Fears, I was saying that the game was different. As I said before, it was mostly a Rainbow Six game, with operatives. Just new names.
We will see how shit plays out. I dont think John Woo is a bad director. It could be worse... you could have a guy like Uwe Boll or Paul WS. Anderson. As long as they got the operatives from the game (which they should), the drama, and real plots from the books, it will be great. Kinda like Clear And Present Danger was good. I wouldnt expect it to be all action and the same old boring hostage rescue like you guys are saying. Give this a chance.

Anyhow there are good game to movie franachises. I-Robot... Resident Evil Apocalypse... Sum Of All Fears. |
Ugh...... worst movie I have seen in 2004. Would you even call that a movie? The first part was nice, but Apocalypse.... in the entire movie they walk in dark streets/ally's shooting zombie's, Mila Jovic became some kind of fucked up terminator doing all sorts of flips and fucked up shit which is really fake, which looks fake and was really childishly filmed. Nemesis looks like a cheap ass puppet and the movie has almost no point whatsoever + mila has no tits.
But to get back on topic, I do hope John Woo films RS the right way. I liked MI2, although I think it's inferior to the MI1. MI1 was simply good coz they fucked people brilliantly, in MI2 it's all muscle and gun power, that's also satisfying but I prefer smart movies. I just hope he doesn't make RS a slow motion, over the top, exaggerated, action movie. RS is a tactical and realistic shooter, he should make the movie in that image. |

I agree with you as long as he also makes the movie good plot and drama. Open up the first scene with the shootout in the musuem... introduce us to the characters. That one mission from Rogue Spear... the musuem shootout was great. They should have lots of mindfuck games to, as long as they dont pull one of those good guy turned bad scenarios again.
