Strategy First Partners with Union Entertainment to Develop The Jagged Alliance Feature Film!
Nick Nunziata Signed To Develop and Produce Movie
MONTREAL, March 8, 2007. -- Software publisher Strategy First Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Silverstar Holdings, Ltd., has partnered with Los Angeles-based video game and film production company, Union Entertainment, to adapt Strategy First’s hit video game franchise “Jagged Alliance” into a feature film. Union and Strategy First have signed on Nick Nunziata (Grizzly Park, Meg) to help develop and co-produce the project.
The original “Jagged Alliance” game was released in 1994 and has spawned five sequels, with another currently under development at Strategy First.
The project’s title, “Jagged Alliance”, describes the cutthroat relationships between members of a lethal mercenary team whose only true allegiance is to the highest bidder. Each a specialist in his or her own discipline, these operatives know that in order to survive their missions, they must rely on, but never dare trust, each other. The team is assembled from the best of the best by the Alliance of International Mercenaries, an apolitical private organization with its own covert agenda.
“‘Jagged Alliance’ is high on character and action, but with a dark humor that fans relish,” says Union President Richard Leibowitz. “‘Jagged Alliance’ has a solid premise, and its character-driven game story makes it much better suited to film adaptation than many other game properties. Those elements are key to successful game-to-film translations.”
“Jagged Alliance is a great game franchise with dynamic characters and personalities that belong on the silver screen. This project is a brilliant take on the property and we anticipate a truly original picture coming out of this series.” says Emanuel Wall, Strategy First’s Business Development Manager.

Can't say i've ever played one of these games, they'll probably turn it into a B action movie.
Those who are not familiar with the Jagged Alliance series are missing out on one of the greatest turn-based tactical games ever made.
Seriously.
So fucking good.
Shit, I hope they don't change it to a movie tie-in.
ANOTHER JAGGED ALLIANCE GAME IS IN THE WORKS?!? OH MY GOD THIS IS GOOD NEWS.

What was with that random release of a Megatron that was a tank? Where the fuck did that come from and why?
That's not really a spoiler.
That's more of a guarantee.
wiggin is just going for "Tard of the Day". He was shitting in another of Rank's threads, earlier, about how he was one heck of a Bad Dude.

How can you call yourself a fan
But seriously, I have low expectations for this. I have no idea how they could pull this off right.
This happened to me when I was playing a few weeks ago:
Thank god I had lots of grenades.
It'd better fucking be.
Half the fun is putting up with your mercenaries' wierd assed personalities and grudges.
BOTH COULD DIE, I WOULD NOT CARE
You can use it to fend off the girls.
I remember someone translated what he says when he rants only in russian, as opposed to when he talks in both russian and english.
They were very unkind things about the player.
Scully's is incredibly emo.
