WipEout movie/series?

[Lion]

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 …

[…] 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...
