:
I would not. Half Life fucking sucks. I mean, come on, the protagonist's name is Gordon Freeman. Freeman? Oh, Free-Man. I get it. Because the game is played in a totalitarian setting.
This argument falls apart the moment you consider the existance of Half-Life 1.


The bigger issue with a Half-Life film would be portraying Gordon Freeman on-screen (which he never is in the games, and I don't think people realise just how jarring seeing the bespectacled theoretical physicist in an orange and black suit of armour running around Ravenholm would really be) and also the fact that he is mute, and a speaking Gordon would have unforeseen consequences for the franchise as a whole.
