50 Cent developing Saints Row movie

Saints row is as much a comedy as an action game, somehow I don't see 50 cent throwing poop on buildings and katana fighting

"You put a movie into a game,what do you get? you get a piece of s**t " -Angry Video Game Nerd. it is true that many Movies based on Games are bad,so i don't expect much of this movies

I always link saints row with 50 cent in my head, since they used his song for the main menu in saints row 2. I dunno why you guys go hard on 50, his bulletproof game isnt that bad. Im just not sure game like saints row fits the big screen

i love hip hop & rap but 50 cent's songs are flop except some hand picked ol' skool . his games are flop too. so tell him to drop it over. movie ain't gonna work

please no.... I do not want to think, or be reminded of 50 cents the rapper when i think of saints row...i think if they half to make a movie of this game, it needs to be a new face........not 50...........50 cent just tryin to make money off this game ,& before you know it he'll be wearing purple with the saints row logo out in public,and in his videos, and using it as his own clothing line,.. we must not let this happen..........have nothing against 50 cents , just think they should use someone new male or female .

ok now wait it might be interesting but i really dont want to see 50 in it (im a fan but not a big one)

They are kidding right?

A saint's row movie that's just stupid,50 cent should just stick to music.

I kind of like the idea - I just get the feeling critics would slam it because: A. It's too vulgar for kids [they stupidly assume saints row is a game meant for kids]... B. It's based on a game at all. C. It's just badly written.

50 Cent making a saints row movie. That would be awful. It'd be like giving the rights to make it to Uwe Boll. And with 50 cents ego he'll probably cast himself as the main character. Damn Retards Attempting Poetry.

this would be a cool movie but gta 4 would do better for a movie

Saints Row movie would be awesome if the cast is made up of famous rappers

LOL Cavender. The Rock, Vin Diesel? Those two are the exact opposite of talent.

Saints Row has a great story but it just doesnt seem like it would look good on the big screen. Maybe its just because the game is very unrealistic and comical, not sure.

when is this movie is coming out??? the movie gotta be cool because SR was awesome

WOW... please tell me they aren't making this for real. The story of Saints Row isn't a great one to begin with... oh well why do I care.

umm.. a little over the top maybe?? fun game and all but...what?? prob the only one id support is the prince of persia movie, it sounds like THQ and 50 Cent have thought real hard about this, meh ill watch it one day =] pretty cool

I liked 50 cent movie though. I don't trust him either, so lets hope they get a good director. Hopefully they will stick with the story line of the game and the main guy in the film will be a cool bada** black guy. Maybe, someone not like 50 cent. LL Cool J is funny or maybe Common, he is cool. I also think Columbus Short or Brian J. White. OR MAYBE DMX!!! LOL

i hope someone else makes a movie instead....i dont trust 50 on making as good of a movie as the games

Obviously 50 cent wants to make the movie but he will be the protagonist but when they talk to him what will they call him. Also it would make sense to have the people who do the voices to be who they are in the film but Neil Patrick Harris who plays Veteran Child doesn't have hair like that, you'd know what he looks like because he plays Barney in How I met Your Mother, I'm not being rascist but the guy who plays Mearo is black and Daniel Dae Kim who plays Jin in Lost doesn't suit the part because to me he seems to have a baby face. And would the film be about all games or just 1 game

I don't understand how you can make a game a movie when there's things you have to consider like character customisation in the game itself. I think 50 Cent will have to cut the protagonist of the games out and stick another character in if this movie is going to make sense, especially with the character I made for Saint's Row 2.

i thinks its o.ok if theres a movie

No, no, no, and no. Go make Blood on the Sand, step away from the Saint's Row.

Why didnt Uwe Boll think of this? =P

BAD IDEA that is all...........

Hopefully, as an executive producer, he will find competent producers and casting agents.

Why so much hate? Seems to be the perfect person to make this kind of movie. No I'm not a huge 50 Cent fan, but damn. At least he's trying to make movies, and not doing crimes (anymore). And--his movie Get Rich or Die Trying was actually pretty good. Not winning any Oscars of course, but it was OK. So more power to him. If you like the game, why wouldn't you go check out the movie? If it was Pete Jackson, you'd probably be all over his balls right?

WHY!? Dont make the movie! But i have to say thats cool how the skull is based on a piece of art.

Don't expect much, just don't

Is this a joke?

What did we do to deserve this?

50 Cent should be called something like No Cent, since his music and games(and soon to be movie he is making) are worthless. Real 50 cents are worth a lot, even more in the times we're in. xD

Well it would have been a complete piece of crap anyways. Regardless of whether this moron made it or not. I could care less who develops such a bad idea for a movie. Saints Row is fun, but the dialogue is horrible for the most part, with lots and lots of immature jokes and bad storylines. In fact this movie actually seems perfect for 50. I'd like anyone to name a better developer for this. No real movie producer/writer would touch this garbage with a ten foot pole. Don't get me wrong I played Saints Row 3 times through, although all of my ****ing files got corrupted (hopefully they fixed that in Saints 2), and it is one of the best sandbox games out there, in fact I like it far more than GTA. Still, it doesn't belong on the big screen.

Oh god....

50 centt is randomyl turning into this mdeia mogul lol

Goddamn it 50, Leave gaming alone. You're cool and all but damn, go back to making BETTER music like you did back in the days.

beats hollywood

I have a feeling... if it's destined to come out someday, it's gonna be worse than Uwe Boll's creations.

The movies budget will be 50 cent

im here to help

God help us all. :?

HELP ME!!

This just sad. This is just another fine example of Hollywood running out of ideas and SMART Talent.

@ Immortal_Zarok: I completly agree with you!

@ LordDeArnise Spike Lee would only make a movie with a plot. As it has been stated, Saints Row has very little plot to start off with, so as a translation to film that will mean it will be garbage. Spike Lee Is a celebrated director who would never lower himself to a gang movie. Where have you been? have you ever even seen a Spike Lee Joint? I don't think so. Let that Goof Hype Williams gloss up a bunch of thug-wannabe-cum actors and let them parade their bravado around for all the 12 years old kids to emulate.

Oh for fooks sake why him why is it always the retards who make video game movies first Uwe Boll and now this retard.Couldn't someone with a brain in their head make a video game movies so perhaps it won't turn out to be a pile of crap.

Hvac0120, his singles are the worst i agree, candy shop/in da club are disgraceful, but have you heard the massacre (lyrics, its baltimore love thing), also that new song (i assume crack a bottle) is only confirmed for before i self destruct, though it may still be on relapse. as for moral issues, do you play guitar hero and look up to aerosmith? cuz compared to 50, only difference is music like it/dont, came close to death on different circumstances. seriously, though, all the money still makes 50 life $#!+, its depressing what people have to put up with cuz of poverty, but openly saying youll sell drugs to fiends for pofit is at least honest, unlike many gov officials.

Actually, fifty was good, real good back in..um...before he got famous. Listen to his earlier songs ex: Ghetto Quaran, Life's on the line, he rapped really well back then and his lyrics were good
