This must be the only non-Oddworld topic allowed to live in the GD forum :p

Well, it relates to Oddworld Inhabitants so that still counts.
Perhaps in the long term we will have to have another Zulag 1 forum for CS but I think that's a long way off. |
Wow...I'm really excited about this. Not dissapointed in the slightest. I also find it very cool that OWI will be developing a game right alongside the production of the movie. Maybe this will be a trend with OWI in the future...game and movie packaged together.

Wow, i think this kinda sucks

Here is another article. I basically says the same thing, but it's still nice to read.;) http://www.cinemablend.com/new/Oddwo...vies-3755.html |

It's funny how our attachment to Oddworld extends beyong its boundaries. You wouldn't find a Lord of the Rings film forum discussing King Kong. Would you? Our name might be better "Oddworld Inhabitants Forums". |
Well, I guess that it is official that they are working on both the Film and the Game at the same time.

Ummm... You have to be careful with CS articles as some of them (such as your second one) are dated from the original 2004 announcement.
|
Looking forward to it. Loves me some pretentious, distopian, pseudo-Cyber Punk stuffs. Really, I do.
To be honest, an Abe movie never really interested me. I mean, he's a good character, but meh... I just don't think I could sit through an entire movie with nothing but Abe. And now I actually have a reason to visit GD. |
If Lorne is in charge then I will be something cool. To bad it's not Oddworld, but in the long term it might indeed be a good idea.
|
An Oddworld film would've been important to us and OWI, but in doing this they are expanding their boundaries and going where no-one has gone before, which is important for the whole film market, which is a bolder, braver thing to do.
|
I'm truely glad you guys changed your oppinion about it so quickly...
I truely can't wait for CS, oh, and this should definatly stay in the gd |
Citizen Siege GD forum in the future?
|
Actually, as the movie gets to be known a little better to the public, there should be a CS discussion forum since it will get less and less related to Oddworld. There would have to be the Citizen Siege and Related Discussion Forum, but I guess that is too long.
I'm still curious why OWI are making a new homepage for the Oddworld website, if their main project is non-Oddworld related. |
:
Anyways, I think that kinda sucks. I was really hoping for an Oddworld flick. Hopefully it'll turn out good though. |
Wasn't it, though? Nothing better than really half assed humor. Anyway, I haven't changed my mind. Lorne is a sellout and the movie will suck. We'll never make an fps my ass you hypocritical turd.
|
I guess this isn't that bad after all, all I hope is that it has a good story and is creative
|
Citizen is a Project of Oddworld Inhabitants, so it's normal it should be on their main page.
oh and OANST, you seriously need to tell me exactly what you have against Citizen Siege |
Sorry for the dubble post... I simply had to post this picture

Whoah, I was only offline for almost three days and now there so much news about the oddworld movie!
These news sound pretty exciting... :
I never thought that Lorne would show the american flag in it...! |
it's the flag of Americo... with dollar signs instead of stars
|
Ah, now I see it.
Sorry, the signs were just too small for me. |
Haha, Lorne taking the piss at the American flag, I love this movie already!
|
:
GameSpot have an interview with Lorne and Sherry: http://gamespot.com/news/6160661.html?sid=6160661 |
about the logo, you guys might be intrested to know that "the Eye in the Hand" is an allready existing and wide-spread symbol.
:
more info about the symbol here: http://www.darkfiber.com/eyeinhand/ |
It's also a common motif in the Middle East and is a traditional symbol of sorts in both Islam and Judaism called a Khamsa.
Hell, I have one on my keychain. |
Not sure if I am allowed to post the actualy picture, so here is the link.

I didn't have anything concrete against the movie until you showed this picture. How trite can you get? |
It's just one of those images they make to convey the feeling and the issues in their project, like those in the chapter headings of The Art of OWI.
