metroixer 10-12-2005 12:35 PM

Yes...Yes there is.

I saw a trailer for it at some link in these forums along time ago. It was just the words oddword: strangers wrath. It was basically the beginning of stranger's wrath, but it was a little more polished.

OANST 10-12-2005 02:11 PM

I don't think that's true. There was a bit of debate about that already and it seems that this was not a movie trailer. Plus, I doubt that they would lead off with a Stranger movie since the game did so poorly.

Thanks for telling me that. I thought it was real. Oh well.

I believe Lorne's working on it now. As to what game it'll be based on/continuing, we don't know.

I'm hoping for a cinimatic adaption of Abe's Oddysee, though.

Al the Vykker 10-13-2005 07:26 AM

My hope and guess is on Abe's Oddysee.

Xavier 10-13-2005 09:09 AM

that's what I'm hoping too.
I realy think Lorne should tell us what he's doing right now

it's been 6 months since the last intresting info he gave us

Armorslig5434 10-13-2005 02:16 PM

We waited longer between munch and stranger. Remember how painful that was?

Out of curiousity, do we know whether Alf or his assistant have been visiting the forums since OWI moved shop?

EDIT: Woohoo! 2000 posts. Finally! It's taken me two months to go the last 30.

metroixer 10-14-2005 05:38 AM

I myself hope it's on abe's exoddus. I need to see more cinematics from that game because I just loved them! I also wanna know more about dripik. (That gluk kicks ass!)

Xavier 10-14-2005 09:45 AM

Alf didn't visit us for quite a long time I'm afraid.
But Alf's Assistant seems to grant us some visits quite often.

An Oddworld movie would be spiffy cool.

I trust it would be exciting and full of new stories and things that we haven't seen in any of the games but . . . I haven't read any articles pertaining to the movie as of yet. Who knows. It would be sweet if it was based off of any of the games, as well.

Oddys 10-17-2005 02:07 AM

I don't think, lorne make a movie about Abe's Oddysee. i think he make a new story. basicly on the slaving of mudokons, or something.
But I very very hope it's about Mudokons, Sligs, Gluckons, Scrabs, paramites, etc. and not some other new races like the Steefs or Gabbits. -.-

Dancing Steef 10-17-2005 02:43 AM

If Lorne's making an Oddworld-movie then I hope it'll be 'bout the Steef race... a continuation on OSW wouldn't sound that bad, if ya ask me.

Oddys 10-17-2005 03:52 AM

hm, your a fan come with Stranger Dancing Steef?
I'm a fan of the old Oddworld. the new is... not like the old ^^
Stranger's wrath is a great game but it... tis not odd
same with Munch's oddysee

Salamander 10-17-2005 11:03 PM

wasn't the movie he was gonna make called citizen siege? or am i stoned?

Oddys 10-18-2005 12:17 AM

hmm, I believe that was the name for the game was stoped.

yes I am. I agree with ya when ya say that the new one is not like the old, but at least OSW was a good game, wasn't it? When I said that "a continuation of OSW wouldn't sound that bad" then I just put my thought in the mix of other members thoughts of a new OW-movie...

Oddys 10-18-2005 12:39 AM

mhm... jes, stranger was a great game. And a great story.
But I'm a absolute fan of the old games.
There one can change nothing more to. :fuzwink:

But when lorne makes a film that can rwach the old games, I was more than contently.

Scrab Watcher 10-18-2005 01:41 PM

*waves small flag* The oldies are the goodies! Not that there is anything wrong with them MO+ games, but they don't feel as, well...odd/unique.

I think that the Abe movie already has a screenplay written. If there was to be only one movie, Abe is who I'd like to see in the starring role. <-sounds optimistic, doesn't it?

odd chick 10-18-2005 07:12 PM

Yeah, if I'm not mistaken, there already was an Abe screenplay that had been written. ;) I did enjoy MO and SW immencely, but AO and AE will always hold a special place in my heart because they were the most original ones out of the entire series, in my opinion. If there was to be a movie, I hope that it would be about Abe and the old cast of characters maybe with a few new ones as well. ;)

Oddys 10-18-2005 11:54 PM

yes, AO is the best the inhabitants has make.
It is in my heart over 10 jears. ;)

The Marching Mudokon 10-19-2005 12:29 AM

I heard that they would put AO and AE in one movie or was that just speculation? I hope not, because it would be good to see AO and AE together although it would take longer to make.

Nate 10-19-2005 12:17 PM

They're going to make one Abe movie but it will not necessarily be based on the plot of one game or the other. I assume it will include themes from both.

Remember that Lorne came up with the film plots first then adapted them to the games. So he would have had to leave stuff out of the games. So what we are going to see in the movies is the games + more.

Xavier 10-23-2005 04:21 AM

Actually the movie will be showing some aspects we didn't see in the games, and won't show some boring stuff (it won't be intresting to see all the levels of Scrabania, Paramonia, SligBarraks,...)

If an Abe is being made of cource

Sapphire 10-23-2005 10:54 PM

It's in my heart too, Oddys. :) A good way to put it, really. The old games always will be, for me.

An Abe's Oddysee movie is what I've been hoping for for years. I'm curious if he'll make any mention of his progress on the G4 special, but somehow I don't think he will, since it's about game violence and not his own endeavors. Oh well.. one can always hope.

Cullen Heath 10-26-2005 06:57 AM

i really want a mixture of abe's exoddus and munch's oddysee, they both had great movies in them.i think it should start out as abe's exoddus and be that for about half an hour and the rest as munch's oddysee.

Oddish 10-26-2005 07:11 AM

I don't realy think thats the best idea, it is unsual. Munch's Oddysee and Abe's packed in one single movie would cause a bit of confusion, they're both different stories with different themes.

If they still have a plan to make Munch's Oddysee into a movie, I'm pretty sure we will see all those things left out of the original MO, Sam for example, Roid mabey not becuase it was suppose to be something included as a game feature, but you never know.

Cullen Heath 10-26-2005 03:05 PM

yeah but the could blend the 2 games and change a little. like first it shows exoddus with a little more discription,then it blends a little to the pint where abe and munch meet, then they go on.
