QUAKE To Become Feature Film!?

Quake movie!In an interview with SCI FI Wire, id Software CEO Todd Hollenshead revealed that he and his company were discussing a film version of the popular video game "Quake" even before the whole Doom debacle. With "Doom" set to hit theaters later this month, Hollenshead says that he is still interested in pursuing a feature film version of "Quake," regardless of whether "Doom" is ?successful.

"It won't make much difference to us, we see everything independently," Hollenshead told SCI FI Wire.

"The challenge for Quake is what to draw from for the movie," Hollenshead said. "Quake 2 and 3 are very different, and Quake 4 is kind of a prequel to 2. So for a movie, we will probably draw from the Quake 2 and Quake 4 universe?an alien race from another planet that has attacked the Earth. That sort of thing."

This will only work if the movie is based on Quake 3 ARENA.

I would like to see a live action rocket jump. How do you go about losing just a little health in real life?

It's like when you trim your fingernails too short.

Yeah. You're right about the *live action rocket jump* ... We gotta keep movies like this with total REALITY.  With REAL earth physics and stuff. We can't have all this imaginary stuff on the movie screen.  Oh.. can't use the STROGG either... that stuff doesn't exist in real life.  wait a minute...maybe it is possible with a little thing called SCI-FI!!!

Quake 4 movie!   > reply

That would be the shit if they made a quake 4 movie.. a quake 3 movie would make no sense and would be very stupid.. But i would loooove to see a quake 4 movie.. i hope they do that

Hell no, are you kidding me. Based on Quake 3 Arena. It wont work. Here is the thing. All FPS games have a story, but they arent all amazing stories. A movie can give a chance to expans more on the story of the game. So, I can see Quake the movie based more on Quake 4, have a way better story, then the mindless MP action of Q3A.

The thing is, in Quake 3 arena you constantly die. In Quake 4, if you die, "You're dead", unless you restart from were you died. I dont want a movie were people just keep coming back to life, boring!

I think that they should follow the Quake 4 game. I have the game and it would be perfect for a movie. or they could put Quake 2 and Quake 4 together, because Quake 4 is t prequel to Quake 2.

RE: Quake 3 ARENA   > reply

Posted by A random shemp (No Email) on November 26, 2006 1:32 AM

Quake 4 is the only way this movie will get any success. THe human vs Strogg battle would makes for awesome viewing. Quake 3 on the otherhand doesnt even have a story so a movie is just stupid

Quake 1   > reply

And why not base it on the very first Quake? That story as a movie ... not bad!

Quake Feature Film?   > reply

Lets not do another Doom movie. That storyline really sucked! The only storyline that would even entice people to watch would be a Quake 4 plot. Since earth is not invaded as of yet, I would set the angle on an earth deep space mission gone awry. The mere fact that Stroggos is not yet charted would make a surprising start for a human expedition to become the first to discover it and in turn expose earth to invasion! Then we can have all the boom-boom bang-bang shootem up on the tail end of the movie!

Quake 4?
I meant Quake 5!

There have been 6 game releases to Quake! You mean the one with the stupid Trolls?

Doom Sucked   > reply

"Quake Wars Enemy Territory" is the only way to go as a movie concept is concerned. I don't want to see people crawling around a ship in the dark! How about you? I hope that any director that picks this up will make sure the storyline is well adapted! Hmm, maybe Ridley Scott or Steven Spielgerg, or both! I know, we could have Russell Crowe battling cybernetic dinosaurs!!!

do the quake 2 story then 4   > reply

Posted by A random shemp (No Email) on November 17, 2007 6:59 AM

these two would be the best

becuase if you leave it as the one man army against an army of aliens that would be so cool and leave the final battle at the end and you can use quake 4 as a 2nd movie

I think Quake 4 would work well because the story is upp to date. i can agree that it shouldent be to dark trough the whole movie. I would just love to see the journey in the medical facilities when matthew cane becomes strogg. i also love all the gory detailes that exists in the game and to put that with an realistic story that follow the basic ideas of quake 4 would make an asome movie. it would be something like alien and starship troopers only much better directed than starship offcourse. the creepy feeling of alien and the big war between the alien race and humans in an giger inspierd surrounding! the doom movie "t has now been released" i hope it wont be to dark and i hope those who make it will show us more bright shots of the creapy monsters that ar hanging around and that a good story could carry the movie better than really famous actors and very very expensive special effects. i know that the special effect ara great deal of the movie but in doom they werent worth that much because of the crappy story!!!! am i right? i would realy like to see quake 4 become film but only if the story is realy good. Doom felt like someone was really horny on getting the movie done, not caring about wether it would be good or not!!!! greatings from sweden!

The story should be based on Quake 3.  It's the only original storyline from the game series.  And it would have to be strictly monitered because Hollywood butchered what Doom should have been.

fuck quake 3, the story must be based from quake 4

you gotta be fuckin kidding me? quake III...
 U dick head! there was absolutely no story behind it! quake II is the obvious pick, and Quake 4.
U would have to be stupid to make a movie of a shitty Unreal Tournament wannabie on such a great franchise! try thinking b4 u dribble shit out ur mouth next time!

I think they should start with the earth invasion. They should make a quake serise with ETQW as the first movie then 2 and 4

quake 4 sould be it   > reply

Posted by A random shemp (No Email) on November 10, 2008 5:24 PM

I dont think any but quake 4 would make a good movie . because its outside on another planet with all the details put in it on how the strogg appeared and how they are made . its just so obviouse that quake 4 should be the answer to this

the guys that would be in charge of the quake movie said the quake 2 and 4 universe would be what the movie took place in,read the article at top of page.

you are a retard, stop answering your own questions and then acting like you are someone else trying to oppose your own question.

if it was based on quake 3 arena, it would suck badly. but on 2 and 4 it would have a really good story.
