I noticed something about CITIZEN SIEGE

Hi everyone, I looked on the Citizen Siege Thread/Sticky, and is it just me who thinks this, or are the letters on the logo that says CITIZEN SIEGE on it reflecting the American Flag off of them?

It's not an American flag. It's the AmeriCo flag.

The AmeriCo flag. The $s and stripes.

"Let martial note in finance float
And currency extend its mighty hand
A flag appears 'mid bankroll cheers,
The banner of the Fiscal land.
The emblem of the rich and true
Its folds protect no leftist crew;
The red and white and money blue
Is finance's check and loan.
Other markets may deem their banks the best
And back them with subsidization
But the buck of the North and South and West
Is the capital, the wage of Fiscal nation." *tear*

Sorry Xavier, but how am I double posting? I didn't post the same thing twice. Also is what I'm posting right now double posting? Sorry, but I'm really new to this site........
Also Bullet Magnet, is that flag a real flag? Also I don't get how it has anything to do with Oddworld, so why would they put it on there?

Double posting is when you post twice in a row. It’s considered poor netiquette and can annoy people. There is an Edit button with which you can make changes to your most recent post.

The flag shown is the U.S. flag but for the stars replaced with dollar signs. It’s not a real flag, it’s visual satire, implying that the most important thing to U.S. leaders is money.

Citizen Siege is going to be developed by Oddworld Inhabitants, even if it's not set on Oddworld this forum is still a good place to discuss it.

Are there any news about the project's status or release date? IMDB lists it as a 2009 release

IMDB lets its users generate part of the content... so it's not what I'd call reliable.

IMDB is only reliable if there's information about the film available to the public anyway.

There are many things that you interact with every day that are not "Oddworld". Do you dislike all of them?

At least we're getting something from them. And, you hardly know anything about Citizen Siege, none of us do, you can't say you're not going to see it just because it isn't about Oddworld. Even though it isn't Oddworld, it could still be a good film.

misunderstanding

:

I didn't mean that it was bad to discuss citizen siege on this forum I was just wondering why would there be an americo flag on the citizen siege logo, I was wondering this because I thought that citizen siege was about oddworld, but now I know it's not.

also does anyone know if they will ever make another oddworld game/movie

Could work on the 360 or PS3 as a downloadable, I'd buy it. Enhanced HD remakes of AO and AE with bonus levels = win.

Try using this.

There isn't a lot of information on it, but these forums and TOL (The Oddworld Library) might have some.

It may not be ''Oddworld'' but i'm sure it would have the same feel and emotional pull the games had, but it just wont have Abe etc. Obviously everyone would love a new Oddworld game, but what helped make the games great were the characters and the story, something that can be achieved more easily in film.

But classic PlayStation hooked up to a television set from the late '90's/early'00's (by the way, how would you pronounce '00's? "Oh ohs"? "Naught Naughts?") with a drink and classic Abe games also = win.
