I know, one of them broke away and started another company, one of them has visited my college and is absolutely obsessed with helvetica, so much so he appeared on the movie commemorating the 50th annivarsary of helvetica.
Definitely!
Nah, I want to LIVE the action!
I couldn't care less.

helvetica, pfft.
I still like the original Baskerville.
And Perpetua, and Tempus Sans, and ... and... Ogham!
oh dear, that is what i define as poor typography
F500, OCR A Extended and Wingdings FTW!
Back on topic...I keep imagining that if this movie were to be made that Top Gear's Jeremy Clarkson would play a minor role (maybe a race commentator), any other cameos you can think of?
or he could be a big headed know it all.... he seems to fit that role very well.
OMG they just announced... nah just kidding, no WipEout movie yet, but one can dream, right? I just thought about it for the first time and figured there would be a corresponding thread on the forum.
VR could give Sony execs some ideas...
wow, a ten year old dredge...
remarkably, none of my posts on the earlier pages contained this!?
All I can say is that a both games and racing tend to be poorly made in movies, bring in Sci-Fi and the results me be really cringey.
Well, a quality team could of course deliver great work, as long as it's no Hollywood...
I think the Wachowskis could pull it off. I quite enjoyed Speed Racer, and a film with that kind of oversaturated vision of reality with a plot based on bringing about the fall of F9000 could be really cool.
Fusion, and the lore presented in Pure, provide some promising material.
I had a conversation in ’11 I just remembered …
(quote slightly altered for anonymity reasons)[…] I would probably point out though that it was never originally intended that the game would have loads of back-story; that was just something that was worked on because we had some time available and it was massively fun to do. Certainly, the stuff that appears online at Wipeoutzone was never intended to see the light of day; it was purely background material that was supplied because a film production company had expressed interest in developing a Wipeout concept. […]
That may explain the loads of background in the original game, compared to the rather flat stuff in the rest of the series, excepting Fusion.
I'll just leave this here and wonder if it has anything to do with Sausehuhn's comment
WOW. Thanks for that!
I couldn't remember the URL, but I had emailed him after seeing a thread about it on here in 2007. Knew I still had the email somewhere in my old gmail account
"The future was then, according to this 'Wipeout 2097' shirt."
That line strikes quite a feel...
As a film student myself, it's my dream to create a Netflix-like adaptation of WipEout as a whole (live-action), with each season representing events from every League, such as:
Season 1 - AGRC and F3600
Season 2 - F5000
Season 3 - F7200
Season 4 - F9000, Depression and Rebirth
Season 5 - FX300
Season 6 - FX350
Season 7 - FX400 and Beyond
