DISQUS

I heard about a dozen of these ridiculous movie ideas but have seen none of them ever enter any state of production.

These are great examples of Hollywood's filtering system and...slashfilms

"The good news is that the game isn’t tied to any extensive mythology, which will allow the studio to build the entire story basically from scratch."

You know, I was going to lie and make up a mythology, but I can't even imagine something stupid enough to be true.

This game truly has no possible storyline.

There are simply no words to describe the lengths hollywood is going nowadays.

Though this will never come out, it'll get cancelled somewhere along the line.

Dude *I* pitched this idea to my classmates in '86 and they laughed at me... now look!!
I really don't want to be one of the many who will chime in whinging about how lame this is, but honestly -- what the hell else are we supposed to do? I mean, what else can we say about an idea like this??

I totally sucked at this game; kept running into the asteroids. Anyway, I'd probably go see this if it didn't cost more that 4 quarters...

PLOT. SPOILERS BELOW.

"In the year 2056, one man... one mission... one destiny...

In order to save his loved ones, he must protect them in his ship.

But alas, the evil Kings of Space have sent multitudes of rocks to hurtle at him.

He will destroy them. He will survive.

Tom Cruise. Keanu Reeves. Reese Witherspoon.

And Jack Nicholson as the Space King.

ASTEROIDS.

Summer 2013."

Doesn't sound too far from what it'd be.

Wow, my family had that exact arcade cabinet when I was growing up. Not that that makes me want to see a movie based on it.

I just hope this doesn't turn out to be a knockoff of the Last Starfighter.

Well, it's only a matter of time now before they make a Pong movie.

Last I heard, they were batting the idea back and forth.

Bad News - Hollywood already made this move. It was called Armageddon.

I... but... WHAT?
Just NO.

Makes me think of the scenes in Empire Strikes Back when they went through the astroid field... and I'm sure those scenes will still be better than an Astroids movie.

Space Invaders would make a better movie.
