Okay, back on topic. I wonder who the hero of the movie is going to be. Hopefully it will be Abe. It will be a brilliant movie if Munch dies.

Slaveless 06-28-2006 07:36 AM

I always thought it would most likely be Abe. I don't know why though. I remember reading that Lorne said that he always wanted to do an Abe movie.

Munch can't die before a couple of chapters of the quintology, so I doubt we will see that in the first Oddworld Movie

I wonder what the movie's going to be about anyway.

IMO I think they will make all the released Oddworld games into movies, then will carry on with the Quintology, because they'll have a lot of angry OW fans if they don't finish the Quintology.

Xavier 06-28-2006 08:28 AM

that what I think too, the whole quintology in 5 films :D

Sassenach 06-28-2006 09:39 AM

Good that the site is coming back.
Good that we soon get info on Abe Movie 1.

Yes, I just hope the movie will live up to the games.

Come on, Kimon! It's not that hard!

It's not the spelling that confuses me, I just have no idea what Dusan is saying. I would appreciate a translation, if you could.

Anyways, yeah, the whole movie concept is exciting, although it has me worried about how humorous they'll try to make it, and in what sense. I'm agitated. Eek!

Spirrow 06-28-2006 10:06 AM

They may be even better than the games. I know it takes time
to design a website, but I wish they'd be done soon.

Dusan 06-28-2006 10:35 AM

Translation (for Kimon): If everybody talk about the movie (I mean oddworld movie), and who will be in it, the opening (in the cinema, red carpet, limo etc) will not be so exciting. That why they do not talk so much about the movie... or i just think so

Xavier 06-28-2006 01:36 PM

he means that if we know what's in it there wont be much to surprise us the first time we will see the movie.

Kimon 06-28-2006 01:54 PM

Ah, okay. That makes sense. I suppose part of it is that they are still working on it as well.

Mudoko_Jedi 06-29-2006 02:20 AM

how long do you think it would take to set up the oddworld movie webstite, when it does what do you suppose will be on the site will it be like www.oddworld.com

Spirrow 06-29-2006 02:37 AM

It took days for my mother to design her website with pics, text, and
video files. And with all the extra stuff they add to all these popular
websites, I expect it will take even longer. But I'm not sure.

Lord Vulcher 06-29-2006 07:38 AM

Well, we just have to hope and pray that the website will be finished soon.

Xavier 06-30-2006 06:05 AM

I guess a month after announced would be great...
so only a few weeks left.

Actually, these guys are professinals in making websites. They have the technology to do a lot more in just the same amount of time.

But I agree with Xavier. Usually you go with fliers a month before you make your website offical. But this still makes me suprised at the speed Lorne is making his film. It takes Pixar 4-5 years to make their films. But yet, it only took Lorne over a year to release that he is making his film. Maybe it's because they already have their designs for their characters?

Lord Vulcher 06-30-2006 06:20 AM

I really think we should get a couple of people to go on the Oddworld site every hour to see if it is finished or something like that.

A few people already probably go to check anyhow.

I suppose they would, there are a lot of people who love Oddworld.

Xavier 06-30-2006 07:08 AM

I'm not sure we will be able to see material from the film directly at the release of the site...

simply something to make us wait for the film :p

Lord Vulcher 06-30-2006 07:19 AM

I wonder what rating the film will be. Probably a 12.

Jordan 06-30-2006 08:59 AM

Yeah, I think so too! It might have mild swearing in it.
See ya folks, I'm going on holiday WOOT!!

Slaveless 06-30-2006 09:00 AM

12? Out of what of what, 20? Or 100? Or 10? My system is always out of 4.

Spirrow 06-30-2006 10:33 AM

Yes, you confused me as well when you said "12". I'd ask
the same thing as Slaveless.

Primus inter pares 06-30-2006 10:59 AM

It is good that they are making computer animated movies, just imagine how fat Abe and all the others would have been if there was real actors inside them.
I also think it would be based on the games but with more "fill", like when you in the A.O. say: "hello", the mudokon answers: "hello", then you say: "follow me", and then the mudokon says: "okay", so it could be changed so it sounded more like this: (Abe is A. and the mudukon is M.)

A.: (whispers) "Hello, I want to save you so follow me and be quiet."
M.: You!? the employer of the year!!??, so what will you now do, make me go away from my job, and when a slig see me, you say that you tried to catch me, and so i will be in risk to be executed, and you will not get your 10 daily slig beatings but only 5???!!?!".
A.: (whispers) "No you must trust me, the glukkons will make us to their new produkt named "mudukon pops", i saw it, and now i try to escape, and don´t forget that we are brothers and try to be silent".
M.: (whispers) Good i will trust you, but if you betrait me, i will never forgive you".
They go, run and sneak (where there are sligs or slogs) and then Abe saves him.
What do you think of my little scene?.

I don't think that they would even be able to do that. It would take practically years to make all the environments. They wouldn't be able to afford the money to do that. Plus, why have actors, when Lorne was able to do all the voices in AO?

That scene was pretty cool, but that would have to happen a different way in the movie. It would be boring for people if they saw this scene 99 times. But it could be one of the ways that OWI makes the sequences.

Lord Vulcher 07-02-2006 12:28 AM

I really doubt he would make a movie of AO, AE and MO. I think he justs wants to press on with the Quintology. Thats what I would do anyway.
