The Apostle The Black Priests 55	Posted - 2011.09.23 23:41:00 - [1] - Quote I just spent the last hour checking out some of the CCP trailers. As a huge sci-fi buff (as many Eve players would also be) I realised just how much I miss the great space epics of the 70's and 80's. For mine, some of the Eve clips are just staggering and if they were ever made movie length it'd do more for subs than any tweak could ever do. Movie takings alone would bring some nice coin. Is CCP ever going to do such a project? Would you go and watch it? Take an aspirin. If pain persists consult your local priest.
Meryl SinGarda Homeworld Republic United Homeworlds 199	Posted - 2011.09.23 23:50:00 - [2] - Quote My idea of a movie about or set in the EVE Universe, would be a movie depicting the move to New Eden and the collapse of the EVE gate. Fly Safe, Die Hard As stated by a fellow player, Mara Rinn, "EVE is not an internet spaceships game. It's a game of politics, subterfuge, capitalism, empire building and trust."-á

Vertisce Soritenshi SHADOW WARD Tragedy. 28	Posted - 2011.09.24 00:21:00 - [5] - Quote Agreed. Live action or computer generated? The latter would probably be less costly for them. If you actually agree with this then "Like" the OP.

The Apostle The Black Priests 57	Posted - 2011.09.24 00:33:00 - [8] - Quote @mkint. You Sir are a poor troll. A misguided spoiled brat too me thinks. lemme guess. You unsubbed but are still here because you're paid up? Curious if CCP could give us the stats how many players plexed up before "unsubbing". Now, MOVIE dammit. Onwards....... Take an aspirin. If pain persists consult your local priest.

I don't understand why people still even bother to play if they dislike CCP this much.
Korsiri Garoun Investment Bank Gallente Federation 0	Posted - 2011.09.24 00:37:00 - [10] - Quote Yes, would be awesome. Also, get the writer of the novels (can't think of his name :( ) to help with the screenplay! Although the cynic in me wonders how much blowing up and raging in local would be in an Eve movie... prolly best reason to do the pre-quel, so to speak!
Xercodo Xovoni Directorate 62	Posted - 2011.09.24 00:54:00 - [11] - Quote I'd prefer a movie about Gallente-Caldari war and the Amarr-Minmatar war depicting the leaders of all 4 sides forming alliances with the other group and covert missions highlighting the liberation of million Minmatar slaves with Gallente aid and the taking back of Caldari Prime like in day of darkness II The Drake is a Lie

The American public's reaction to the change was poor and the new cola was a major marketing failure. The subsequent reintroduction of Coke's original formula, re-branded as "Coca-Cola Classic", resulted in a significant gain in sales, leading to speculation that the introduction of the New Coke formula was just a marketing ploy

Minabunny School of Applied Knowledge Caldari State 4	Posted - 2011.09.24 01:38:00 - [14] - Quote It would take them 7 years to make the movie. Then you would have to wait in line for 2 years. Once at the cash register you would be told you don't have movie watching V and must go back to the beginning of the line.

Russell Casey Black Corsairs 8	Posted - 2011.09.24 01:41:00 - [16] - Quote PLOT: a guy (played by Jason Statham) wanders into Amamake and gets simultaneously ganked by every pirate, weekend pvp'er and bored nullsec carebear doing hotdrops all at once. He then tracks down all the offending parties and kills them in an increasingly violent and gory fashion, blows up some random stuff and bangs a hot chick for good measure. Also, his ship's self-destruct timer is running and every podkill gives him an extra 30 seconds to live. The tagline? "EVE is Real and He's Really Pissed."

Shall I present to offer the pilot Last Rites just in case he runs out of ammo? Take an aspirin. If pain persists consult your local priest.
Henry Haphorn Aliastra Gallente Federation 9	Posted - 2011.09.24 01:46:00 - [18] - Quote If I were able to create an Eve Online movie, I would start with the different stories of individual capsuleers who struggle to survive in a sandbox universe where everything in life is cut-throat business (both economically and literally) and then later rise to prominence with the nullsec alliances and how they have fought each other for the monopoly on the high-sec market.
non judgement Evolved from the Wreck Flying Burning Ships Alliance 10	Posted - 2011.09.24 01:51:00 - [19] - Quote Maybe they can call the movie Clear Skies?
Baljos Arnjak Dark Praetorian Order 2	Posted - 2011.09.24 02:00:00 - [20] - Quote Gah, you stole what I was going to say. Clear Skies is the next best thing, but I would like to see a full-on lore related movie with BSG quality or better graphics. I remember a long time back there were a couple of trailers released (Evolution - can probably find it on evefiles) where a group of players were going to make a feature length movie, but they never finished.
Headerman Quovis Shadow of xXDEATHXx 105	Posted - 2011.09.24 02:23:00 - [21] - Quote Personally i think a movies or TV series based on discovering THE wormhole would be awesome... start out how advanced humans are, that all the galaxy has been colonised, then discovering the WH half way through, going through it, starting colonisation there and ends when it collapses. Next movies/series would be based upon each race before making a show of the novels
Spenser for Hire School of Applied Knowledge Caldari State 0	Posted - 2011.09.24 02:39:00 - [22] - Quote CCP is like Marvel Comics. They won't realize what they got until they no longer own the Rights to it.
Agent 42 RADIO RAMPAGE Indecisive Certainty 0	Posted - 2011.09.24 03:39:00 - [23] - Quote 1st Movie = Rise and Fall of The Jove Empire 2nd Movie = New Beginning, Four Earth Clans Discover the EVE gate, typical human bullshit creates strife and divide. 3rd Movie = War Between Main Factions, intro to Pirate Factions 4th Movie = More War. 5th Movie = return of the Jove Empire
Yasumoto The Maverick Navy Against ALL Authorities 4	Posted - 2011.09.24 03:56:00 - [24] - Quote non judgement wrote: Maybe they can call the movie Clear Skies? This. "Clear Skies" is that good. But, I'd support the initiative if a 3rd-party, anime-based studio had interest in licensing the rights to a film or even a serial show. Might even be a good segway into a more advanced form of Incarna and the upcoming ~~Planetside~~ Dust project. Shoot me now for even mentioning that junk. I write 3rd party because CCP doesn't need any distractions for its grunt workers asigned to EVE-related tasks. Management, on the other hand, can go fist() one another for days on-end and the IP probably wouldn't suffer much. () - elbow-length, industrial rubber gloves recommended.
mkint 44	Posted - 2011.09.24 04:09:00 - [25] - Quote The truth is, a movie about the Lore is usually a bad idea. Example, the Lord of the Rings series would not have been so popular if the only book in the series was Similarian. Star Wars quit being fun when we knew what Vader was like as a kid. Having vague (but privately well documented) background information makes a fictional world feel deeper. Clear Skies rocks so much because it has a full world of background to draw upon (plus the freakin' awesome storytelling.) If I were to write a movie about the collapse of the EVE gate, I'd have it be about some backwards rural settler on New Eden surviving the apocalypse of the collapse. Maybe, just maybe he meets a fellow named Jove, or a corp named such, or a ship, but just as a wink to the players.

Lore in and of itself would be a bad idea, but the characters and events within the lore are what makes things interesting. Add to that the Hero's Journey plot and some sort of cataclysm like the eve gate collapse or the Amarr attack on Pator, and you have a candidate for a good movie or series.

Well written, well done, and well produced for being an indy film with no official support from CCP. Riggs I would rather die on my feet, than live on my knees

The big turnoff with genre fiction in general (be it sci fi, fantasy, steampunk, or whatever) is the tendency to be "ooh, look at all this sci stuff where sht happens!" instead of "oh all this sht is happening, oh and it just happens to be in space." Where EVE as a sci fi game is exactly that... sht happens, and would be just as compelling if it happened on 17th century wooden sailing ships. EVE's specific strength is that it lets sht happen.
