I, however, am a diehard gamer of more years than I can count, and I believe that System Shock 2 would make an absolutely frightening survival horror movie. The concept is admittedly nothing new, but properly told with the correct cinematography...
If you're interesting in offering suggestions or viewing my progress thus far, e-mail me. Yes a gamer should make a movie based off a video game.

Who would want to watch a movie about a guy creeping around and stealing shit for an hour and a half? Yes, I've heard this many times and I should say that it's a very good point.

This might be a little OT, but I just saw Minority Report, and I really liked the dark and gritty feel of the future in that movie. It reminded me of DX in a few aspects (both in terms of the story and the environment). There were a lot of hidden agendas (to say the least), and that conspiracy type feeling should really be incorporated into DX: the Movie. I'm a little worried that the director will focus too much on action sequences, and not enough on the story itself. The gameplay obviously won't be able to transfer over to the big screen, and I just hope that the original screenplay will. Deus Ex is really the kind of project which can have big potential, but only if it's in the right hands.

If Paul Anderson, the director and screenwriter of Resident Evil directs the movie than the Deus Ex movies fucked.
