Alski Gallente Di-Tron Heavy Industries	Posted - 2007.05.22 02:57:00 - [31] But who would play the Rats? -
Silas Vitalia Khanid Provincial Vanguard Khanid Provincial Authority	Posted - 2007.05.22 03:32:00 - [32] Episodic and animated would be the way to go. Plenty of story that you could take your time with in small doses and not try to cram everything (and spend too little time with everything) into a 2-hour movie. No way to distill EVE into a 2 hour movie without shortchanging a lot of things, and once the Hollywood people get a hold of it, it will be changed so much as to lose all meaning. Computer animation is getting cheaper and better all the time. Take a look at the new intro movie for Starcraft 2 (just as an example of a well-done computer animation). It doesn't have to be photo-real. Hell, the new ambulation (station avatars) engine looks good enough for me. Hire some good voice talent, use the ambulation engine, bingo! Cheap, easy to produce episodic content, of chronicle length. ..On the first day, God created the Amarr. ...on the second day, He created the Amarr Nerf-Bat, and struck upon them
Ararius Lilandri Foundation	Posted - 2007.05.22 05:15:00 - [33] Yea, I would like to see a CGI type Eve movie, or at least a few episodes. Each one could tell the story of a pod pilot/normal person in the new things that are happening allaround in the universe. The story of a matar refugee who is rescued by a Gallente pilot? Or the 'frist' pod pilot (A caldari in the Caldari/Gallente War) and his struggles both during AND after the war and have all the epsiodes link together someway at the end. Also many battles, large/small scale with pretty pew pew would be a + Or some Jove warrior dies to attempt to defeat the Bob titan/mothership armada, but passes on his knowlage to a just into the pod noob? The possiblities are endless! Originally by: Alski It depends how much CCP learn from past user interface mistakes, i'm sure they'll do very well, but if not i'll be right clicking on random people and selecting "Orbit at 0.5m"
Frug Zenithal Harvest	Posted - 2007.05.22 05:56:00 - [34] Animated maybe, CGI no. I don't know why, but I'm so sick of CG everything. I miss models and -good- props. - - - - - - - - - Do not use dotted lines - - - - - - - If you think I'm awesome, say BOOO BOOO!! - Ductoris Neat look what I found - Kreul Hey, my marbles
Maglorre	Posted - 2007.05.22 06:28:00 - [35] Already been done, the TV series was called Firefly and then the movie called Serenity.
Mesasone Gallente Vogon Deconstruction Fleet Ratel Alliance	Posted - 2007.05.22 06:48:00 - [36] Edited by: Mesasone on 22/05/2007 06:46:42 Originally by: Maglorre Already been done, the TV series was called Firefly and then the movie called Serenity. Firefly is a fantastic show, but it doesn't really capture the essence of EVE imho. There are some fairly interesting parallels, but nothing too solid. On the other hand, Babylon 5 is amazingly similar to EVE, and I often wounder how much this show influenced EVE's design. The ship designs, races, stories... so much of it is so similar to EVE. In particular, the Centuri (Amarr) / Narn (Minmatar) and Minbar (Gallente) / Earth (Caldari) conflicts. And of course, ship designs... the thorax hull looks very similar to the white stars, while the Myrmidon looks to be a close cousin to the Minbari war cruisers. And the Amarr shuttle seems to be ripped virtually right out of B5 with the Centuri shuttle. Just to name a few of the top of my head. There are many other striking similarities. It's great not being Amarr, ain't it?
Mindlles 0utbreak	Posted - 2007.05.22 07:26:00 - [37] Originally by: CCP Wrangler but only if I can have Halle Berry. As u see, u would suffer very badly for trying to steal her from me!, Watch out in space girlstealer!! Mindlles keeps dreaming on about his sig!
Maglorre	Posted - 2007.05.22 07:31:00 - [38] Originally by: Mesasone Firefly is a fantastic show, but it doesn't really capture the essence of EVE imho. There are some fairly interesting parallels, but nothing too solid. Yeah, I do kinda agree with that. I think probably because it's based more in ships and on planets rather than ships/space stations which is why B5 might feel a bit more like EVE. Originally by: Mesasone On the other hand, Babylon 5 is amazingly similar to EVE Apart from the whole alien thing... but otherwise spot on <rant> I used to LOVE B5 but the network here that showed it had (and still has) a terrible habit of buying good sci-fi shows then scheduling them on at 11:30 at night... following a live to air show of some sort that may run up to half an hour overtime (sometimes more) and then about once every 3 weeks replace it at no notice with some thrilling sports thing... like maybe GOLF. And then they wonder why the shows rated poorly... DUH. Shows I know that suffered this fate include B5, all of the Star Trek series, Farscape (no real loss there) and Firefly (I didn't even KNOW about Firefly until a mate gave me a couple of episodes he got off the net about 6 months after it had aired here) It made it very very hard to follow the shows plot lines. </rant> Oops, sorry about the derail
VBboy The Phoenix Rising Vigilance Infinitas	Posted - 2007.05.22 07:43:00 - [39] A movie would be pretty cool. I would be willing to get active and write to the film companies sugesting the target market. TBH i doubt they have hear of Eve before so its a case of proving this can work on a global scale and be sold. As such it would include Eve related content but the storyline would have to be captivationg to the masses. Star Wars and Startreck movies have been huge hits but other space related movies have not really done very well at the box office. I suggest our background is not know by the masses enough at the moment for them to come to us. We would need to go to them :) And get proactive. VB
MrBreaker Amarr	Posted - 2007.05.22 07:43:00 - [40] Originally by: Frug Animated maybe, CGI no. I don't know why, but I'm so sick of CG everything. I miss models and -good- props. Totally agree. Films made entirely with CGI are ok, like Final Fantasy, but in liveaction films it has just been overdone to the point where I don't even raise an eyelid when I see something that could never be done with props and animatronics. I think Star Wars episodes 4,5 and 6 actually had better special effects than 1,2 and 3, simply because they were a bit more special. During Revenge of the Sith I kept wanting to press escape and get to the game.
fuze Gallente Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency	Posted - 2007.05.22 10:22:00 - [41] +1, Muppets do Eve
Adaris Dark and Light inc.	Posted - 2007.05.22 10:27:00 - [42] Originally by: fuze +1, Muppets do Eve lol I would like to see a cgi version of a story that wasn't too epic. Such as a crime story invloving a murdered Caldari researcher on Luminaire, and the main character being a gallente detective must investigate it but must first get over his own prejudices of the Caldari etc something good like that, instead of a story showing a fleet battle etc which we see every day. Its a proven method when making futuristic films that the more you tie it in to the present experiences and societal tred the more popular it is at connecting with the audience. for example, Children of Men. It explored immigration and the end of the human race, but in a futuristic setting. rats would be the different factions. So they would be able to take part as peopleof their faction, Serpentis being srug smugglers/manufactures etc Please Help me, YOU could be next!
Garia666 Amarr T.H.U.G L.I.F.E	Posted - 2007.05.22 10:44:00 - [43] There is only one true actor.. who should star in such amovie... Bruce Campbell Is the best acter all times... ->My Vids<-
Adaris Dark and Light inc.	Posted - 2007.05.22 10:54:00 - [44] Ladies and Gentlefolk I give onto you the one, the only... Bruce Campbell. Please Help me, YOU could be next!

VanNostrum Cataphract Securities Storm Armada	Posted - 2007.05.22 13:43:00 - [46] movie would be 5 hours long if they showed a scene in Jita
Svenstaro Amarr Breath Of The Dying Pride - Honor - Duty	Posted - 2007.05.22 14:16:00 - [47] Guys don't let this slip. There are great talents in this community and 'The Ruthless' is a great story base for this. Who's gonna be the one to kick this off? ____________________________________________ Toy ship wallpapers
Greme Amarr Slacker Industries Exuro Mortis	Posted - 2007.05.22 14:18:00 - [48] Originally by: VanNostrum movie would be 5 hours long if they showed a scene in Jita "Wow, that's such an artsy Still-shot montage you've got going there, really different to the usual motion picture shooting. How did you manage it?" "Well, you see the only place we could afford to shoot in was Jita and....."
Danton Marcellus Nebula Rasa Holdings	Posted - 2007.05.22 14:46:00 - [49] Just as long as they keep all the actual player names of themselves, their alliances and for the love of god their outposts out of the picture. Casting for all races would be rather easy given their stereotypical looks, except for the sebestiors, where do you find a dopefiend that can act convincingly? I'm guessing the guy in House could do it, him and Rik Mayall, why am I only seeing pale britons? Also Known As
torswin Caldari Capital Productions Inc.	Posted - 2007.05.22 15:12:00 - [50] I wish jovians will be in the film. Always wondered how they REALLY look like. I know they are ugly, but still ... Anyone got a picture of one, except for the one in backstory?

Janu Hull Caldari Order of Z Industries	Posted - 2007.05.22 15:42:00 - [52] As much as the story sucked, doing it CGI in the vein Final Fantasy: Spirits Within, would kick serious ass. I really think that's the only way to make it workable for the kind of world EVE represents. Either that, or we do it Fifth Element style, and I get dibs on Bruce Willis to play Janu, and Mila Jovavich as Exotic Dancer #273. This is my sig, there are many others just like it. With me, my sig is worthless. Without (or with even) my sig, I am worthless...

You want Halle Berry and Pierce Brosnan to co-starr you? hides Dibs on Harrison Ford to play me. Harrison Ford: Prepare for light speed. Chuck Norris: No, no, light speed is too slow. Harrison Ford: Light speed too slow? Chuck Norris: Yes, we'll have to go right to...Ludicrous speed!

Earthan Gallente The Absolutely Amazing Fire Eaters Breidablik	Posted - 2007.05.22 18:43:00 - [57] LOl nice topic. Actually if you look at all the 0.0 politics/moves its quite an epic material. I would like darth vader to play Blacklight, and empreror SirMolle:) I could be played by one of the 100 pilots getting killed in death star assualt:) Actually could be one serious version of the movie and the second a comedy playing on all those mmorpg-rl ultra funnny relations. lag, camoing etc....:) - Killing Eve bullies all over the galaxy

Clais Monaige PPN United Against ALL Authorities	Posted - 2007.05.26 18:29:00 - [59] Edited by: Clais Monaige on 26/05/2007 18:31:45 Originally by: Redpants EvE is an exciting place and has zero to do with anything close to Star Wars, Star Trek, or any other sci-fi property around. Nah, it could be tricky with terms like "Warp Drive" (and ofc WC Stabs, Warp Jammer...), "Stargates" and such; but that's all common sciFi-stuff today i guess, so a plain renaming could do the job...WTFOMGBBQ-drive or such Originally by: Adaris I would like to see a cgi version of a story that wasn't too epic. Such as a crimallente War) and his struggles both during AND after the war e story invloving a murdered Caldari researcher on Luminaire, and the main character being a gallente detective must investigate it but must first get over his own prejudices of the Caldari etc something good like that, instead of a story showing a fleet battle etc which we see every day. Yeah, that's the way my idea of an EVE video goes: credibility. No overdozed Pew Pew like Sallente War) and his struggles both during AND after the war tar Wars, but more a cross-genre movie like Alien (horror) or Blade Runner (film noire). Think of a conventional film (ofc with a fresh story) in Eve-setting, pretending that it's normal to be there (in tallente War) and his struggles both during AND after the war he Eve world). No direct explanation of mechanics (star gates, mobile bubbles etc.), just as all the things were RL-knwon; it would be silly if a conventional movie would explain every single thing like allente War) and his struggles both during AND after the war many scifi movies do. So i liked the way Firefly has gone - more in that direction, less Star Wars. Don't make it more epic than it has to be, no empire vs. empire or such. On the other hand it would be cool if the making style would'nt be too conventional, so think about 300 or Sin City, or at least Blade Runner. Dark, bizarre, or just like the illustrations given by CCP. A complete cartoon-like version in the style of that illustrations would be awesome - no (3D-)CGI, no actors; but ofc in fluid motions, not that anime stuff. Originally by: Ararius Yea, I would like to see a CGI type Eve movie, or at least a few episodes. Each one could tell the story of a pod pilot/normal person in the new things that are happening allaround in the universe. The story of a matar refugee who is rescued by a Gallente pilot? Or the 'frist' pod pilot (A caldari in the Caldari/Gallente War) and his struggles both during AND after the war Yeah, a episode-cutted variant like Outer Limits with non-related stories could do the tv-series thing. Would be awesome. Ant tbh, i don't think that any movie comes close to the "style" or atmosphere of eve, not just the ingame-experience, but also and especially the chronicles and illustrations. Not to mention the soundtrack... _____________________________ - be excellent to each other -
