It looks almost exactly like Wolfenstein. Change the name of the main character and I would totally take this as a Wolfenstein movie.

That's what exactly I was thinking. It's a wonder that we hadn't gotten a film adaptation yet. I think in the right hands like GDT or Sam Raimi, it'd be pretty cool.

It’s funny because it was just a few years ago that they were restarting the Wolfenstein movie after the original director was jailed,but nothing came of it. I think if i’m correct Paramount does have the rights to a Wolfenstein movie,but I could be wrong. Also I always thought GDT would be better for a Silent Hill movie. Although I thoroughly enjoyed the first Silent Hill movie.

Actually it would be pretty cool if the title screen was at the end of the movie and the full title was: Overlord: A Wolfenstein story. Imagine how many gamers would totally shut their pants if they saw that.

Because the hero in Wolfenstein is white.

Because the hero in Wolfenstein is white. There’s a black character in the new Wolfenstein games who is a hero as well. Your point is?

If i’m correct didn’t the newer Wolfenstein games take place in an alternate universe where ww2 happened differently? So why couldn’t there be a black guy?

So why couldn’t there be a black guy? Fuck alternative universes. It's along with time travel (=> Nazi-Alien-lizard people in Enterprise) the laziest way of writing, and in this case only to push a political agenda. If you want an alternate universe, than you can also have an other fascist regime. Why Germany and Nazis then?! Why not a Liberia like in Equilibrium, why the re-writing of history?

It makes for an interesting game and possibly movie. I guess it never really bothered me that much.

I just read the plot summary. Wow, that's almost identical to Wolfenstein lol. Man Abrams is such an unoriginal hack.
I guess the same reason The Force Awakens wasn't called a New Hope.

Or perhaps it's a greed thing to make the most money possible and they don't want to pay idsoftware and Bethesda.
