There could be an incredible true behind the re-boot idea. (Nasty spoiler alert) - by sterlino

Today i was thinking about the reason that forced EM to take the best part of our beloved thief and mix it up with some kind of real life's features that some of us doesn't appreciate enough.. (me too)
The mother of all the true and lies.. the motivation that gives the power to Eidos to destroy Garrett as we used to know it and
to transform him into some kind of super hero with focus powers...
But since i can unveil something of truly shocking i will write it under spoiler. And first i suggest you to stay calm, no screaming and to sit down..
the reason is : [spoiler] THIEF: THE MOVIE [/SPOILER] !!!!!
someone agree with this suspect ? :cheeky:

And if you spell MOVIE backwards it reads EIVOM which sounds kinda like EIDOS!
Guys I'm starting to freak out over here!!!!! :sweat:

Probably not a proper, full lenght movie, but...
Seeing how AC: Lineage was apparently a huge success, you may be right. It would be (theoretically) a decent way to get people (-> casual gamers) hyped for a game. Their "actor" sure has an experience acting in projects like this... harr... harr :joke:

You are, you really are. Silly.
Will they still consider Tobey Maguire for the part? :p Warren Spector already shot down the idea of The Rock playing Garrett. Whew!

Turning Thief into a movie that is even remotely faithful to the games would be a very difficult task... I still wouldn't mind watching it though. :p
P.S. SuicideMachine, is your nickname a reference to (

There actually was a thread about that a long time ago... Can't find it anymore though. :erg:
And I can't think of a single actor who could fit the role of Garrett. Or imagine what the whole movie could be like and what it could be about. It's an interesting thought though, and a nice idea to play with.

Tom Waits could possibly do it. He has the character and voice for it, albeit he would be hired as the Trickster anyways.

So we're calling baseless conjecture that doesn't have anything at all to do with the game spoilers now? Okay.
