Christian Bale as Solid Snake? My ticket is pre-bought.
This would be a great start and pretty much cement MGS as a good to great movie at the very least. CB is an awesome actor.
Thoughts?

A MGS movie would be awesome but I don't think I want Bale playing as Snake. If Kurt Russel was younger I could see him doing it...Course that's because of Snake Plisskin. Though maybe he could do Big Boss or Solidus. I can't really think of anybody to play Snake. It just won't seem the same without Hayter's voice. Same with Liquid if he's in it not having Cam Clarke's voice.

I think Bale would do a good job as Solid Snake, the problem is he sorta already played a watered down version of Snake in Rescue Dawn, He was even eating snakes in that movie.
Wow... One of my favorite video games coupled with one of my favorite actors... Awesome! I can totally see that... Bale is the right actor to play Snake...
One question, though... Would this movie be based on the Metal Gear series, or the Metal Gear Solid series?
Don't get me wrong Bale's a great actor, but his characters are always, to some extent proper. He pulled off Batman yes, but Batman is a playboy. Solid Snake, is a rugged badass. Not exactly Bale's cup of tea. I'm not sure who they should get for snake, I could almost picture David Wenham doing the part (Faramir) but I'm not sure. For Solidus I could picture Kurt Russel as mentioned above for either Solidus or Big Boss, maybe even Bruce Willis I dunno. Not sure who they'd get to play liquid, can't be to hard to find though. And Ocelot could be a range of people maybe Ian McKellen?

I'm not too concerned about the movie just yet, but I am extremely grateful that the game's creators outright refused to give the movie to Uwe Boll when he asked for it.
The first time I watched batman begins I thought in the theatre that he would make a good Snake.The scene were they show him in the suit before he paints it black under that little waterfall in the Batcave just looked like Snake.
BTW,though their not twins,i'm voting for Hugh Jackman to play Liquid Snake.

I see were you're coming from,but any good actor should be able to pull off a playboy or a badass.You can find many examples of actors who have succsesfully done this.Case in point.The above mentioned Hugh Jackman.
