Hot Damn the Gears of War Movie Is Coming!
Looks like we’ll soon have another log to toss on the scrap heap of “great video game franchises burdened by a shitty movie.” Comingsoon.net is reporting that not only does the upcoming Gears of War movie have a script, it’s got a director too. No word on who the directo actually is, but right now I’ve got even money on Uwe Boll. He’s a one-man, game movie wrecking machine!

For what it’s worth, I think Gears would make a kick-ass movie with an apocalyptic Terminator or War of the Worlds -type of atmosphere. I mean, it’s definitely one of the most cinematic games in recent memory, and also gritty and action-packed in just the right kind of way. Of course, give it to the wrong director he’ll turn into a ‘Girl Scouts Meet Harry Potter’ movie
