I mean C'mon. It seems like the obvious movie. Before we all get tired of him playing movie characters. Let him do the role we know him in video games. Who doesn't wanna see Jack Black scream DECAPITATION!!! After removing a head. Sure he'd have to play an older Eddie Riggs. But man it would be good.

Who would play the main character though?
Hell no.
>Before we all get tired of him playing movie characters
Too late.
That would be School of Rock 2
“What do you do with a bunch of kids that just want to bang their heads all day?”
“You start a revolution!”
Just make it animated (Heavy Metal style for bonus points) for a younger Eddie Riggs. it would have to be animated or heavily CGI to make it look right anyway.
I’d rather sign a petition banning Jack Black for at least 1 year from doing anything.
Was a good game.
Only if it’s animated.
I’d rather have a sequel to the game or at least a remaster.
Needs to be directed by Edgar Wright
How about a petition for a different gaming actor?
I just want a second game
I can see this being a CG movie with him voicing it.
This game still slaps to this day. It’s one of my all time favourite games
That doesn’t sound like a bad idea, he does look like Jack Black.
I loved this game but hate tower defence games.
I’m sick of video game movies, it’s the lowest form of IP slop and the two or three good ones don’t excuse it
I think we’re good.
No jack black playing the game , and the game character should be Momoa
Remaster
The licensing rights for the soundtrack would eat half the budget, but I’m onboard.
That would actually work very well.
Too bad the game turned into an exceptionally shitty RTS.
Just because things exist doesn’t mean Hollywood needs to make a film out of it. Not every game, comic, book, or toy needs to be made into a film.
Leave it alone, not everything needs a movie
Fuck that. Remake pls!
The video game hatred needs a live action movie
I’d rather get a sequel or a rerelease with the cut content put back in
Some of y’all haven’t seen Tenacious D and the Pick of Destiny
I’d honestly rather see this remade first, and then a sequel, where Eddie needs to battle his way through a slew of other heavy metal genres. Sailing/ship combat against hard-core Viking Death Metalheads. Racing against Speed Freeks. The slow incursion of soulless AI.
And eventually has to face the Scourge, known as …Disco.
Signed!
I don’t get the JB hate. He’s played the same character for nearly three decades. Now that it’s popular to Hollywood exec’s, we hate it?!
Nah, Jack Black for life. I don’t care if he’s overcasted. Blame the casting department, not the man.

Bring on the impalement!
Jack Black starring as… Umm… Jack Black.
I know it’s fun to hate on him now, but you have to admit he puts 110% in everything he does. I’d rather that than another phoned in “The Rock” film.
Ah man I wanted to love this game and I did thematically and visually but the RTS elements just didn’t vibe with me. I tried really hard to force myself through it and got pretty far but I really wish it was a different kind of game.
As long as we get ozzy to play ozzy.
No… Its good enough as a game
