Spielberg Gets “Lots Of Ideas” From Splinter Cell

@Lessthan_tom: I wouldn't be so certain.

@Sark: ?
The entire game was stealth...or did you go guns a blazing? Make a BBE run and you'll quickly see stealth was a serious component of the game. MGS4 is infinitely easier using stealth, see: Outer Haven

@king rex: vampire hater: Oh, if thats the case, I think the chance for change is rising

@king rex: vampire hater: Saving Private Ryan was crap imo. Why I hear you ask: It was spirit crushing sentimatly sandwiched between 20 minutes of (admittily) authentic violence. Munich and Shindlers list were far better.

obviously the censored word is "Kingdom of the Crystal Skull" or something that means the exact same thing.

@sunpop: no...he's a cash cow ;)

@ThursdayNext: I had to lol at that. What I don't get is he produces so many shite movies its scary.

I did not realize Spielberg was a giant shark.

@SuperZombieMonkey: This, indeed. Besides, MGS practically cast off the pretense of stealth with MGS4. Still, overall MGS is the better series.

@SuperZombieMonkey: Everyone here is forgetting the awesome Thief series.

And isn't the stealth in MGS just a small part between action scenes?

@king rex: vampire hater: Edit: forgot about Saving Private Ryan... ok, he hasn't directed a genuinely good movie since 1998...

@PunkyChipsAhoy: What ticks me off more is he calls it "the superior stealth game" which it's OBVIOUSLY not. The stealth is just a bridge to the action of the game and the story, while Splinter Cell's stealth completely overshadows any other aspect of the game. By the way I am a HUGE Metal Gear fan and collector but I really do think that as stealth, Splinter Cell is far superior. MGS wins in every other way though.

@Snappywave: Subtitle option for the Deaf please:

I agree MGS is a great game, but Splinter Cell is ftw in my opinion. Sneaking around in the dark with them sweet ass goggles will always bring me good memories. Not to mention in Chaos Theory that the co-op brought screams and excitement from my friends and I playing it.

@Snappywave: Subtitle option for the Deaf please: Spielberg's a huge Xbox fanboy, I'm sure he hates MGS for not being on his choice of platform.

Spielberg hasn't directed a good movie since Schindler's List; drop the controller and get back to work, Steve!

@StealthBadger: Ha!

@ittekimasu:

"I was thinking, like, wow. If we made a game that inspires Spielberg then, Super Paper Mario, we're doing something good here."

That seems about right.

Brodka loves Kodu

@icepick314: I think it was a "snoozefest" because he was really finishing a Stanley Kubrick project.

[www.visual-memory.co.uk]

Everything you don't like about that film was in the original Kubrick script.

Brodka loves Kodu

@Ryan Meehan: Totally had to.

BTW I think MGS is bit too over the top for Speilberg's taste.

James Cameron would be the likely candidate to be interested in MGS.

Snappywave: Subtitle option for the Deaf please

@Ryan Meehan: Yeah, seriously.

SuperZombieMonkey

I was thinking, like, wow. If we made a game that inspires Spielberg then Spock's Beard!, we're doing something good here.

well it has to be an obscenity right? I'm gonna go with boobies.

"I was thinking, like, wow. If we made a game that inspires Spielberg then boobies, we're doing something good here."

That sounds about right.

@Snappywave: Subtitle option for the Deaf please: you just had to go there, didn't you?

Ryan Meehan

@ZeeBeeEss: It's the internet... we're all "that guy".

@StealthBadger: You win. Internetz for you.

@markusdragon:

This afternoon I heard this on the radio:
"If you can keep your head while all around you are losing theirs, then you probably haven't understood the seriousness of the situation "

@Adnoz:

Shitty-Fuck is my guess.

@Yossarian: And fridges?

Skot

Wonder what he thinks of MGS which started it all and still the champ of stealth genre?

Snappywave: Subtitle option for the Deaf please

@Showmeyomoves!: jimminy christmas!

@Wolf_Dog: Maybe that's a hint that the next Splinter Cell has aliens.

@Protector one: No! no no nononononono no no nononono no nonon nonononnono.

@CommentatorHatman: I heard he's the shark in Jaws 5.

@icepick314: He must have been playing Halo at the time? Ammirite! Ammirite!

Wow that's not a compliment I mean did they see Indy 4?? Thanks Ubi, yet again!

@Curse_Lily: Don't encourage him..

And he will find a way to cast Shia in every single one of these ideas.

@Adnoz: I'm gonna go with "By golly".

Showmeyomoves!

@ZeeBeeEss: You're a better man than Ashcraft is, ZeeBeeEss.

@ThursdayNext: Alonn in Zee Dach.

I'd like to see another Munich-type movie, would not be disappointed at all with Spielburg at the helm of a Splinter Cell flick

Does Speilberg always refer to himself as "us"? Has he spent so much time hidden deep within the crack of his own arse that he has taken on Smeagol-esque quirks of speach?

"Yesss my precioussss, it givessss us ideasss...It was probably alienses all along...

NO! Aliensss is a crap idea! Stupid stupid creature gollum, GOLLUM!

But we likes alienses my love...all the little hobbitses likes our stories about aliensesss. We can put them in the next Jurassic Park!

Fine, my preciousss fine, we will use alienses, but no more fridges! Gollum!"

ThursdayNext

@ThursdayNext: Well my guess it was "E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial" for the Atari 2600 and then Haze ^_^

I just wish we knew what inspired Uwe Boll to keep making films, then we could stop doing it.

ThursdayNext

@Jaze: No, he's Quebecois... it would be "Tabarnaque!"

Sherban

probably a sony/nintendo game due to being censored in a 360 mag?

So i'm guessing bomberman inspired Michael bay.

still doesn't explain why A.I. was such a snoozefest...

If you can get the title of the movie correct at your first post, you're a better man than me Gunga Din.

It seems like a very unusual choice of movie, it probably would be seen as very old fashioned and rather non-PC now, but you can definitely see the influence in the Indiana Jones move. Especially when Gunga Din survives the fall of the Raj by hiding in a fridge in the little known sequel "Gunga Din and the Cubic zirconium Pinkie".

Censored bit is 'Whatever. I don't give a damn'

Um, not to be THAT guy, but it's Gunga Din.

"Sacré bleu!"

Final answer.

Jaze

prolly the eff word

el_gordo

Barbara Streisand?

CiremoIV

At a guess, the censored bit reads, "it doesn't look like"?

@Adnoz: That's my suggestion as to what [Censored] could be, not a simple spam post, although I can see how it could be seen that way.

Damn.
