REPOSTED, UN-EDITED AND IN ITS ENTIRETY FROM JULY 25th 2008, SO THE REST OF THE INTERNET MOVIE COMMUNITY CAN CATCH UP!

Bad, bad news for film fans worldwide.

God of War is being infected by “The Rat” just as rumored in May.

MGM have confirmed the news in a Press Release about David Self writing the Robocop adaptation…

“David Self’s credits include 13 Days and Road To Perdition. He wrote God of War for Universal, to which Brett Ratner is attached to direct, and was a writer on Universal’s Wolfman currently in production.”

Fuck!

God of War could have been this century’s Sinbad - Jason and the Argonauts - Clash of the Titans.

With someone like a Sam Raimi, a Guillermo del Toro it could have been the epic spectacular that the first video game is.

Instead it’s going to be more Doom than anything else. What a way to kill a franchise before it’s even started.
