I am a huge Metroid fan, and i'm sorry if this has already been mentioned (i don't have the time to read all of this thread at the moment, sorry), but i heard that the makers of Final Destination and American Pie have bought the rights to make a Metroid film.
This worries me, as i hate teen films and hollywood near-death sensationalist crap (American Pie and Final Destination respectively). I hope these people have experience in other genres.
Another thing is, Metroid has always been very isolated with hardly any dialogue at all (excluding Metroid Fusion), and they aint gonna make a film with 2 hours of Samus exploring on her own and killing things, they're obviously going to have many characters...so right off the bat, it's not going to feel truly 'Metroid'.
It may turn out to be fantastic in it's own right...it just won't capture that Metroid atmosphere very well...
