“I can’t go into it too much. It’s not a direct adaptation of any particular game. It’d sound too much like a modern statement to call it a remix, because that’s not what it is, but it’s trying to fuse a couple of different storylines together, and it’s all tied together with a device I can’t really talk about right now but that I’m really excited about. I think it’s going to make a movie where people go ‘whoah, I’ve not seen that before’, and that’s very cool. And I think it’s very Kojima in its approach.”

Game's already a movie so this shouldn't be too difficult.

"I can't talk about it but I'm gonna make it in this cool way that I can't talk about, but it's really exciting that I can't talk about it. People are gonna really like what I can't talk about it. It's a movie I can't talk about, KOJIMA"

How are they going to turn a 20~40+ hour movie into a 2 hour movie though? Like we're talking JUST the Tanker episode of Sons of Liberty.

How can you say this when Metal Gear Solid 1 actually came out first and had a great stand alone plot?

The only thing you can discern from his mostly non answer, is that it isn't based on any single game or existing storyline. It's going to be like US Resident Evil films no doubt

Sure but most people started with MGS and managed fine. The game tells you enough about Big Boss. Wait maybe I'm reading his message wrong since he said first.

I knew nothing about the original Metal Gear games and started with Solid 1. I followed everything just fine.

Metal Gear Solid 1 references Big Boss a lot, and he was the villain of Metal Gear 1 and 2

Like you at least need to know the basic plot of those games for MGS1 to work

May as well just do a Metal Gear 1 movie

Big Boss's relevance to the plot of Solid can be summed up in a single line of dialogue. Most current MGS fans never played the first two games before playing Solid, and didn't need to understand much about them to understand Solid. Leave the remainder of his character and legacy up to whoever portrays Solid and Liquid, since his villain persona is primarily important because of how it affects those two.

i don't disagree, but video game fans tend to pay more attenion then YOUR AVERAGE MOVIE GOER. Who they will need to appeal to if this movie is going to succeed.

It does reference him a lot, but I had never played any of the MG games and I played MGS1 on ps1 when I was in middle school and didn't have high speed internet and shit to read up about anything was able to understand what was going on just fine.

For a film adaptation of MGS1 they could just condense the MG1/2 storyline into a simple Big Boss trained Snake, turned evil, Snake killed him. Snakes his clone, the end. Honestly you wouldn't need more than a minute of dialogue to give the audience the gist of it.

The problem here is it sounds like that's not whats happening at all. They going to create something "new"... yippie....

It really wasn't that complicated. He's a dead guy that the bad guys worship and the protagonist and antagonist are cloned from him. That's about all you need to know.
