OXM Magazine runs a weekly podcast where a couple of guys yammer on every week about.. well, official X-Box things. Included in last week’s show was an exclusive 20 minute interview with MK series co-creator Ed Boon.
The gentlemen knew a thing or two about the series, movies, and gaming in general so I’m glad the subject of the movie (and various bad video game movies) came up, giving Ed a chance to answer some queries in a loose and partially non-politically correct medium.
Paraphrasing what was said, Ed basically mentioned that many scripts have come through Midway’s doors courtesy of Threshold’s free time, dialogues have broken out and he *mentioned* that a certain script HAD been picked, and that there *could* be discussion going on about shooting locations and preliminary scouting. No other news. I loved how one of the men described the project to be in ‘development hell’, citing that the project most likely doesn’t make it past the tables that guys in suits sit at over lunch. Ed did not dismiss this hypothesis.
