I hope it's good!
First Star Trek, then Star Wars, now Portal.
Is JJ going to redeem video game - movie adaptions now?
Lol'Member Portal?
I 'member.
Here's hoping Trachtenberg gets the nod for director.
Member half life?
Honestly, if there's a director out there right now that I'd trust with a Portal movie, Abrams would be one of them. Regardless of what you think of his filmography, he seems to treat every franchise he's involved with a huge amount of care and respect.
Over/under on Half Life movie being released before a HL3 is even announced?
Has the same issue as the Myst adaptation did—the enjoyment of the puzzle games is from the puzzles, and they have rather bare-bones stories for the purposes of a movie if you strip them out.
I give odds this doesn't end up happening. I refuse to believe these projects until they're in theaters.
You guys remember back 9 years ago when they put that LOST easter egg in Half-Life 2 EP2? Heck I even forgot about the Super 8 teaser in Portal 2.
JJ should direct a Metroid movie.
JJ Abrams is a tool. And by that i mean he's an excellent tool for other scifi authors and film makers to use for fleshing out their stories and universes. Abrams excels at bringing out the details and making the things look and feel right.
Trachtenberg or bust!
I'm with you. I don't understand the appeal of this guy. I've never seen Lost but his movies haven't impressed me at all. Just typical big, dumb action movies.Well he sure as heck did not redeem Trek or SW in my opinion (granted it is not a popular one)
I want JJ to direct the the last of us movie.
Also: get J.K. Simmons please.
Even as a huge fan of the series, nothing about Portal begs to be a movie, seems like a huge waste of time and effort.

Wait. Half Life movie? What. The entire point behind them is that shit happens around you without cutscenes. Aliens invading earth because of experiment gone wrong is hardly original enough as a film, Half Life related or not.
Movie is going to be a Tie-in
