Huh, I actually agree with this. Might be better to start with Naked Snake after all.
A parallel story might be interesting if pulled off. I can't picture it though, like some Godfather 2 back and forth between the characters?
Regardless, I love Vogt-Roberts understanding of the franchise. I'm sure he's got some amazing ideas.
You want to provide evidence of this, since it's clearly a sentiment shared by everyone outside you? He might be possibly involved informally, but that's not saying much of anything.
Please, "informat" people.
Your nerd rage was so palpable, you couldn't even "informat" your damn post properly.

That sounds good on paper but I'm worried how it will actually be implemented. I feel like it'll end up like the Assassin's Creed movie where it was hard to care about both the present and past at the same time when you only have around 2 hours.
Personally I would just cut Big Boss and make the MGS movie more like an adaption of MGS1 and not have flashbacks.
Rampage just doesn't suck. But calling it great is ridiculous.
You know what, after reading that interview, I'm actually excited. I was very hesitant before now, but it's obvious that he has the passion and knowledge to execute this well. I'm very hopeful and cautiously optimistic.
Kojima and Vogt-Roberts have become good friends over the past few years. I can imagine they have discussed it quite a few times.
Source.
Kojima has also personally signed off on / given this movie his blessing, which I assume means that he's familiar with the current script / screenplay. He's definitely involved. Involved doesn't have to mean he's on set producing or co-directing. Let's keep the ad hominem attacks out of this thread, huh? No need for that.
There's no need to attack me like I'm consciously trying to spread misinformation.
I know about the director's relationship with Kojima. Just seems odd to not be skeptical of the project if he isn't hands-on with it. That's what I meant by "involved".
What a weird turn for this thread. Didn't think that question was interesting or contrarian in the slightest. I regret posting.

It's pretty crazy seeing the publicity campaign that Jordan is pulling here. It's definitely a "do it yourself" attitude and I love it. It's easier to ask forgiveness than it is permission. It worked for Deadpool and he's trying to do it before the studio even has a chance to shut it down. I love love love this attitude! I really hope it works because this dude has an insane passion for Metal Gear that, regardless of the film's quality in the end, I want to see pursued.
I hope however this goes Kojima gets to be on the red carpet for the movie, would be pretty cute considering his movie obsession.
Theron as The Boss would be pretty good.
Evans as Snake?
Fk no. Evans is bland.
Dude is very obviously passionate about the project and the franchise. I really hope he gets to make this as awesome as possible. He clearly gets it. His take on the boss battles and the sense of tragedy is something a lot of people who aren't into the series seem to understand or care about. But it's always been such a pivotal reason why I enjoy them.
Googled and couldn't find anything about this: does he have financial backing for this? I see that there's a script and he wants to do it but I can't find anything about a studio actually greenlighting this
Edit: nvm, looks like Sony/Columbia is putting this out. Interesting

I really hope Jordan gets to make this film. He just gets Metal Gear. Seeing a movie that incorporates elements of Metal Gear 1, 2, MGS & Snake Eater would be wonderful.
(Interestingly, he didn't say anything about incorporating the Phantom Pain, which I guess makes sense.)

This would be fantastic.
I was in rush and didnt read it afterwards. Sorry.
I am not obligated to provide any sources. It is known that Jordan and hideo are friends.. jordan has visited him and his studio, they had some panels at e3 together, kojima approved him as a director and they were talking about the movie together for some time.
But, since you wouldnt take it as an answer, here is something: https://screenrant.com/metal-gear-solid-hideo-kojima-approve-jordan-vogt-roberts/
I am sure you can find more...
These two guys are pretty good buddies and I am sure Kojima wouldn approve everything this guys says/does with the movie without being really satisfied.
And on top of that... jordan has a huge respect for this guy and his work.. just look up for some of his quotes about the series and kojima himself.. they are 100% working together on this one.
Evans as Snake is fantastic. I am on board with this.Theron as The Boss would be pretty good.
