So, I guess this is a thing. A few years late in my opinion, but should get the nostalgia crowd if done right.

I'm all for a Film or TV Series of sorts, although something tells me that they'll use Neo Contra or Contra Rebirth as a basis, as in Bill Rizer being put in stasis for some reason and being woken up to stop Red Falcon or some equivalent, wouldn't mind any sort of Contra Film though I'd say something along the lines of Shattered Soldier or Neo Contra would be cool.

Inflated and crunched down a couple of threads to make this flow better. Now includes all video game movies!

I don't know if its appropriate for this thread but i wish to talk about the release of the Halo live action tv series which premiered on Paramount plus streaming. 

all i can say is that without spoilers they really diverged from the source material and imsulted the fanbase. not surprisingly considering the fact the show runners never played the games.

It's an adaptation, so I'd say it counts.

Why am I not surprised? Oh yeah; it's because that seems to happen a lot with video game adaptations

I've never played Halo nor do I have anything to do with Paramount+, so I can't make an informed comment about it.
