The artist formally known

QuoteOddworld's plans to create their first feature film has been confirmed by Oddworld production designer, Raymond Swanland. It should be noted that, originally, the Oddworld quintology was planned to be five movies, rather than five games. Lorne Lanning has expressed to the public that he intends to make the quintology into movies as originally planned. However, plans were announced to create a CG animation film titled "Citizen Siege".

IMDB.com states, in a condensed interview from GameSpot by Emma Boyes, that "It takes place on near-future Earth, and it's highly relevant to current global social-political circumstances. Citizen Siege was conceived as game and movie, as a fully fleshed-out game design and a fully fleshed-out story concept for a motion picture at the same time. It's a mature-themed sci-fi action thriller. It's a world gone slightly awry. In this near future, the world is governed by corporatism. And within this world, an expatriate returns home to find himself in a certain state where he has been legally repossessed due to credit rackets run by the corporatism-ruled world. A 1984 for the 21st century."


Holy shit yes.
