Da_man Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 You can't really make an RC movie that's less than 95% animated. There is just going to be too much post production editing to call it anything less than a cartoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
General LiWar Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 haha very true Da_man. droids, blaster effects, a lot of scenery, explosions. All CGI effects. But an RC movie would be fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sev_vode an Posted August 9, 2008 Author Share Posted August 9, 2008 well yeah... but what i meant was they should make it like a normal SW movie like revenge of the sith NOT like this new one clone wars Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Sitherino Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 well yeah... but what i meant was they should make it like a normal SW movie like revenge of the sith NOT like this new one clone wars Good for you. I think there shouldn't, however. Republic Commando was awesome, but unless they come up with something to do with the Commandos to keep them up to date with the Empire's rise, there's really not much that can and should be done.

General LiWar Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 well yeah... but what i meant was they should make it like a normal SW movie like revenge of the sith NOT like this new one clone wars I know, but i think what Da_man was saying is there will be so many special effects/ CGI it could be called a cartoon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Da_man Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 ^That's Exactly what I was trying to say. All of the the clones in Ep. 2 are all CGI animated, and you don't see any humans in RC, so it's just be astonomically cheaper just to make it a cartoon. And we'd just be seeing a plot in movie form. The reason you don't see movies that are directly from video games around. There've been trying to make a halo Moive since Halo 1 came out. They haven't done it because it'd be reiterating the plot.

Sev_vode an Posted August 9, 2008 Author Share Posted August 9, 2008 well speaking of the halo movie it comes out in '09. and ya i understand about the cartoon but why not use the books for a story line....idk. i guess i'm a one-man-idea in this subject Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordOfTheFish Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 I have thought of that idea myself. Maybe a kinda style like "The Dark Scanner" would be cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Da_man Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 well speaking of the halo movie it comes out in '09. and ya i understand about the cartoon but why not use the books for a story line....idk. i guess i'm a one-man-idea in this subject I'ts planned to come out in '09, and every year before than since '01. I'll assume you've seen the "First 8 minutes of the Halo movie" on youtube, correct? It's just one of the Halo shorts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RC-1183 Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 ya that would be a good consept to use the book and they could just do the RC's like they did in the game and use human people in suits and just add the armor later or wat if they had hhumans in Katarn armor and just did it like that???

LordOfTheFish Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 Either way, it's still a cool idea. It would probably take many years to create a film such as that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Astor Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 In my opinion George Lucas should stop waisting time with a clone wars animated flic. Because one person's opinion is really going to make George Lucas change his mind about releasing a film and TV series that is practically finished. There are so many things wrong with a Republic Commando film. Firstly, the film would only appeal to fans of the game. And there's not too many of them. Republic Commando's fan base is miniscule. And let's face it, the game wasnt all that great anyway. What would be the motive for Lucasfilm to make one then? The fact that a small crowd of die-hard fanboys are going to see it? Hardly. It would cost at least 10 million to make a film, or even a TV series. There's no way a Republic Commando project would make a profit with costs like that. It's the movie 'business'. There has to be something in it for them. And the idea just plain sucks, frankly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RC-1183 Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 well actually it would probably appeal to the general pubic if the had adds and worded it right then the public would be like "hey it a star wars movie about a black ops team....." and so on and so on plus a bunch of people watched me play it altho they didnt want to play but they still said it looked cool and if they need money just go ask donald trump for some Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astor Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 I'm sorry, but no amount of advertising would make this appealing to the general public, even with 'Star Wars' in big letters at the top. Where's the lightsaber duels? The interesting characters? The breakneck speed space battles? What's that? It's based on a game where you run down a corridor and shoot things? No thank you. And Lucas Film has enough money without asking other people for it. Fortunately, they aren't in the habit of listening to the whines of fan-boys who feel neglected because they haven't got their sequel yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RC-1183 Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 listen ok i dont feel neglected and did u not read any earlier posts because if u did u wouldve noticed were we said "it should be based on the books" which by the way have DO have jedi in them and i doesnt just focus on Delta squad it also features soliders that arent just Republic Commando's they have the Nulls the ARCs and many others even some wookies so it might help if you play attention some times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astor Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 I am paying attention, thank-you-very-much. And the books have an even smaller fan-base, helped in no small part by sub-par writing. That's why I didn't bother to mention them. A film based on those books is even more laughable than one based on the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Astor Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 How about some established characters, other than cameos? Hm.... profit? a marketable film? Something to change the public's weariness of the prequels, perhaps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
