Hold On To Your Hats, The Shadow Of The Colossus Movie Is Back
Well, special effects are the name of the game in Hollywood these days, and this game is a perfect vehicle for over-the-top effects, right?
I mean, assuming you can look past the apparently obvious fact that the film won't be a fraction as artistic and innovative as Team ICO's masterpiece.
According to Deadline, the feature film adaptation - previously shelved - is back on track, as it now has a new director in Josh Trank and a producer in Kevin Misher.
Trank recently directed this year's "Chronicle," and he's also working on "two new movies based on Marvel characters, one for the Fantastic Four and another based on Spider-Man antihero Venom." Misher previously produced "The Scorpion King" and its sequels, as well as "Public Enemies" and "Mirror Mirror." Gamers everywhere are hoping these guys gives one of the industry's most accomplished and memorable productions its just due. It'll be tough but hey, let's try to be optimistic.

Here's the story thus far:
Wander is desperately trying to bring his loved one back to life, but the US government wants to procure the power of the colossi for themselves. CIA agents will be following his trail wherever he goes. Once these CMDs (Colossi of Mass Destruction) have been procured, the US wants to use them to secure their position as a superpower. Wander must make a tough decision: save his girl but forsake his country (of course he's American), or remain a patriot and bend to the whims of the CIA.
One of the CIA agents (a woman) begins to fall in love with Wander as she sees his dedication to raising his girl back from the dead. She wants that kind of love for herself because her life has been so busy dedicated to the CIA, and she hasn't experienced much love. Wander's decisions get harder and harder, until he must ultimately make a choice to determine the fate of not only his love, but the rest of the world....

"Chronicle" was one of the most interesting superhero origin stories I've seen in a long time, so at least the guy isn't a total putz, and he was actually seeking out this project because he's a bonafide fan of the game. It might be...decent? Maybe..?
