    I do find it hilarious that after over a decade of announcements and rumors about Valve’s IPs being made into a movie, the one that actually made it was a gmod youtube poop lol

      There was some early talks for a show based on Team Fortress 2 to be produced for Adult Swim. That had potential.

      I don’t think a Portal or Half-Life movie would have worked very well, especially considering they were looking at JJ Abrams to direct.

        Oh yeah that would have been great if done right.

        I always thought a movie/trilogy covering the 7 hours war would be cool, but I feel like they’d just try to adapt the games themselves, which I think would be a waste.

          there’s so much potential! pick any random town, maybe even a small one near black mesa. Make it about some random character/family/friends group who just merely survive the invasion, or are surviving year 3 of the aftermath. all made up characters, no need for anything to be canon (but some would help). It would be so easy not to fuck up.
