I haven't seen it yet but I am very eager to rent it from Red Box when it becomes available on December 17th.
Why?
The movie 2 Guns, starring Mark Wahlberg and Denzel Washington was directed by Baltasar Korm+íkur. That name might not be familiar with the Dust 514 community but it should be and the reason being? Baltasar Korm+íkur is an Icelandic director who's recently been put in charge with the Eve Online (and presumably Dust 514) television series that shows a live-action portrayl of the stories that were created by Eve Online players. All the backstabbing and deceitful adventures of players who you may or may not know wrapped into an epic saga.
That being said, I'm very excited to see it and just as well, you should be too! If anything it's going to give us a look at how Korm+íkur's films play out.

Oh, ****, it won't be for a while lol. The only information publicly available at the moment is that they've casted Caroline Dalton as the voice of Aura (you may better know her as the lady who says "Null Cannon Captured" throughout the entire match)

Son-Of A-Gun wrote:The movie was good (2 Guns). The directing was good. The writing was good. The acting was good. Directing, writing, acting, all very important. A good director does not necessarily mean a good piece of cinima, or tv in this case. This is very interesting to hear though. Is this show supposed to be coming to American television or will it be foreign?
Given that their largest player base resides in America I think it'd be a mistake for it not to show there ^_^

Can't see why not, would only increase their revenue in all honesty.
Though... I've never been quite sure how television series work as far as revenue/profit goes... Not sure how people get paid for other people to sit at home and watch something on television...

Let the action sequence... BEGIN!
A guy in proto just wrecks a team of standard gear, freaking dual wield SMGs, human shielding a reddot, and then throwing a nova knife in the face of another reddot.
Drools. Love action movies like that. Expendables FTW!
While it's very annoying to play through, it'd be freaking awesome to watch!
Doubt they'd do many stories of high-sec involved stuff unless it's a bank heist (there's been a few notable ones in Eve)
Edit: Actually, if they don't do Caldari Prime I'm going to be very disappointed
On the other hand, they might just do an episode concerning the rise of power that EON had, the battle(s) with FEC, all the way up until the point Renegade/Proficiency V took over.
.... but rest assured if they do an episode on Renegade they better show the Eve battles we've had in orbit xD

I could see it. Guys jumps out of the MCC, running to the frontline with dozens of our clone soldiers (we have to exaggerate this and all) and it's just a hail of gunfire from the seasoned veterans who've been doing it for months.

Could show that side of war as well.
If he's a Scout he's not limping anywhere he's just going to be a pile of jerky and bacon bits

no dust 514 in it.
its storylines are coming from player submissions and game logs, basically everything and anything they can get their hands on story wise fromt he first 10 years.
its not going to play out like a documentary covering all major events in its histroy, its a show for entertainment.
they will take interesting storys from the history, ones that really show EvE for its defining characteristics.
piracy theft giant player drivin wars the fall of aliances scams and shady characters in jita
the defining things you think about for EvE, it will (pecilation time) probably attempt to have some core characters to revolve around who interact with these events to showcase them, much like any sci-fi would introduce you to the story of the universe through the main characters.
the storys they interact with will be taken from that 10 year history, but i doubt the main characters themselves will, although the side characters are most likely going to be ripped right from the history.
most importantly, NO DUST514, that came AFTER the 10 year mark that was the cuttoff
You know that TV Series usually last several seasons, yes?

Right and we're making three movies about a 297-page book called The Hobbit where as ONLY three movies were made for the 1137-page The Lord of the Rings. By the same director no less.
Just saying, it's CCP. If the television series makes bank (or more importantly, the colloquially known term: 'revenue') I can almost guarantee they're going to shove more stories into the mix to keep it going and considering that the game is still continuing well after a decade, now with Dust 514 added into the mix with Valkyrie soon to come, there's no limitation for content to keep the series going.
As further evidence, The Walking Dead was never given a cancellation date and AMC has stated that (and I'm paraphrasing) "if people keep watching it, it could go on for fifty seasons".

Eh, suppose that makes sense... Lot of money to make a television series though, 'specially if it's going to be on HBO.

HBO is a different ball game. They do not have commercials and earn their money through monthly subscriptions. Is it confirmed the EVE series is going to be on HBO? I am not sure if this makes me more excited or more nervous, HBO has very high standards for a show and I could see them pulling the plug if it is not popular right away.
Read somewhere about it being on HBO, might have been rumor though.
