General: "Sorry sir, but the only way to travel to Africa is by conquering Brazil first." - smack1700, on 11/05/2009, -0/+31The Ukraine is not weak!!! The Ukraine is strong!!!!!
- tsunami643, on 11/05/2009, -0/+31Early reports are saying that the movie will be 3 days long.
- ubernoggin, on 11/04/2009, -1/+23What's next? Chutes & Ladders?
- robertisaar, on 11/04/2009, -0/+21***** hollywood, what a horrible idea...
- Headinawheel, on 11/04/2009, -0/+16AFK, writing script for Pogs.
- acknotSW, on 11/05/2009, -0/+15I'm not sure it's fair to even call this an idea.
- EliteBeat, on 11/04/2009, -0/+14all I had to do was read the headline to tell this is a ***** idea
- eocarroll, on 11/05/2009, -0/+12Why couldn't Sony just make it into a Playstation game? I'd buy that. Or at least rent it.
- askantik, on 11/05/2009, -1/+12Amen. Risk is fun for like an hour, then you realize the game is going to take forever, so you quit and don't play Risk again for like 5 years.
- VyPR, on 11/05/2009, -1/+12Lest we forget Clue was a pretty darn good movie.
- Monkofdoom, on 11/05/2009, -2/+13RIMMER: So there we were at 2:30 in the morning; I was beginning to wish
I had never come to cadet training school. To the south lay water --
there was no way we could cross that. To the east and west two armies
squeezed us in a pincer. The only way was north; I had to go for it
and pray the Gods were smiling on me. I picked up the dice and threw
two sixes. Caldecott couldn't believe it. My go again; another two
sixes!
LISTER: Rimmer, what's wrong with you? Don't you realize that no one is
even slightly interested in anything you're saying? You've got this
major psychological defect which blinds you to the fact that you're
boring people to death! How come you can't sense that?
RIMMER: Anyway I picked up the dice again... Unbelievable! Another two
sixes!
LISTER: Rimmer!
RIMMER: What?
LISTER: No one wants to know some stupid story about how you beat your
Cadet School Training Officer at Risk.
RIMMER: Then -- disaster! I threw a two and a three; Caldecott picked up
the dice and threw snake eyes -- I was still in it.
LISTER: Cat, can you talk to him?.
CAT is sitting with big pieces of cotton wool plugged in to his ears. As
LISTER talks to him he takes one of the pieces.
CAT: What?
RIMMER: Anyway, to cut a long story short I threw a five and a four which
beat his three and a two, another double six followed by a double four
and a double five. After he'd thrown a three and a two I threw a six
and a three.
CAT: Man, this guy could bore for his country!
LISTER: What I want to know, is how the smeg can you remember what dice
you threw at a game you played when you were seventeen?
RIMMER: I jotted it down in my Risk campaign book. I always used to do
that so I could replay my moments of glory over a glass of brandy in
the sleeping quarters. I ask you, what better way is there to spend a
Saturday night?
CAT: Ya got me.
RIMMER: So a six and a three and he came back with a three and a two.
LISTER: Rimmer, can't you tell the story is not gripping me? I'm in a
state of non-grippedness, I am completely smegging ungripped. Shut the
smeg up.
RIMMER: Don't you want to hear the Risk story?
LISTER: That's what I've been saying for the last fifteen minutes.
RIMMER: But I thought that was because I hadn't got to the really
interesting bit...
LISTER: What really interesting bit?
RIMMER: Ah well, that was about two hours later, after he'd thrown a
three and a two and I'd thrown a four and a one. I picked up the
dice...
LISTER: Hang on Rimmer, hang on... the really interesting bit is exactly
the same as the dull bit.
RIMMER: You don't know what I did with the dice though, do you? For all
you know, I could have jammed them up his nostrils, head butted him on
the nose and they could have blasted out of his ears. That would've
been quite interesting.
LISTER: OK, Rimmer. What did you do with the dice?.
RIMMER: I threw a five and a two.
LISTER: And that's the really interesting bit?
RIMMER: Well it was interesting to me, it got me into Irkutsk. - Coffeedemon, on 11/05/2009, -0/+10Ukraine is game to you!?
- lenmonster, on 11/05/2009, -0/+10I hope Michael Bay directs it!
- supersonicjim, on 11/05/2009, -0/+9Wouldn't you prefer a nice game of chess?
- vsujohn2, on 11/05/2009, -0/+7You're dealing with different concepts here.
- thephosphorbox, on 11/05/2009, -1/+7Maybe a porn.. Poop Chutes & Ladders
- jedinate, on 11/05/2009, -0/+6I can't wait for the part where Madagascar invades Poland.
- jerrycan, on 11/05/2009, -0/+5What if I smash your game!
- backwardscompat, on 11/04/2009, -0/+5Up next? Candyland. No doubt.
- AgentRoyIV, on 11/05/2009, -0/+5I'm hoping for a Settlers of Catan movie
- Dynamoo, on 11/05/2009, -0/+5Next up, Scrabble: The Motion Picture

- doctechnical, on 11/05/2009, -0/+4Christ on a crutch... I suppose a TV series based on the Pop-a-Matic is inevitable at this point.
- welestgw, on 11/05/2009, -0/+4I'll just wait for Pogs the musical.
- Rizzen, on 11/05/2009, -0/+4http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fzLtF_PxbYw
Thank you guys. I had almost forgotten about one of my favorite Seinfeld moments. - tacojohn48, on 11/05/2009, -0/+3Just think about doing the movie like Jumanji. Otherwise all we have is a generic war movie with a brand thrown on like GI Joe.
- inactive, on 11/05/2009, -0/+3Were just playing a game here pal...
- factsahoy, on 11/05/2009, -0/+3This makes the recently announced Asteroids movie look epic.

- blackhawk465, on 11/05/2009, -0/+3Ah, so that's why we haven't helped out in Darfur at all? :P
- Skankingmike, on 11/05/2009, -0/+2I played a game of risk against my friend for 5 days straight. He said he'd never play again I moved on to RTS's
- smcnow, on 11/05/2009, -0/+2Unless they are planning something like Bourne ___ crossed with Syriana, I would expect it to be not quite as thrilling as Clue.
- NidStyles, on 11/05/2009, -1/+3Seriously!? Why is it that Media companies like Sony think we want baseless mind-numbing entertainment???
I wuld rather have a kick-ass game of Risk on the PS3 than watching a boring movie of it. Movie's that have no real intrinsic societal influence never truly are worth anything, and ten year's later are forgotten completely. - deslock, on 11/05/2009, -0/+2Pres: "Don't we have anything other than infantry?"
General: "No sir, but we have a hell of a lot of em."
Pres: "Well send a pile of them on over then."
General: "Well, we want to leave one unit in every state... we can't spare any more."
Pres: "Screw it, just nuke em then."
...crickets...
General: "Sir, I regret to inform you we have no nukes anymore. You must have Supremecy to do that." - jimbolla, on 11/05/2009, -0/+2Funny. What's that from?
- Angostura, on 11/05/2009, -1/+3General: "Sorry sir, since we don't control Australia, we are essentially doomed".
... at least in mu experience. - otherwiseyep, on 11/05/2009, -0/+2I can't wait to miss this one.
- HenryScorpio, on 11/05/2009, -0/+2Last I checked, Sony was not an American company.
- jimbolla, on 11/05/2009, -0/+2Trailer will be as follows:

Invading theaters July 2012!!! - theodenking, on 11/05/2009, -0/+2Fascinating.
- tacojohn48, on 11/05/2009, -0/+2Of course you wouldn't. You are a girl and girls don't do well at strategy.
/hates that people think about themselves that way - Ersh777, on 11/05/2009, -0/+2Dear Hollywood,
Die in a fire!
Signed,
The rest of the civilized world - Tubetrotter, on 11/05/2009, -0/+2Red Dwarf.
- hasslinthehoff, on 11/05/2009, -0/+2That's a real coup there, Sony. Good luck with that.
- anarcurt, on 11/05/2009, -0/+1Honestly, I thought this was total satire and then I Googled it and it is actually true. WTF.
- alpha88, on 11/05/2009, -0/+1This will be so bad. You heard it here first.
- thedudex213, on 11/05/2009, -0/+1the worst part about this is, people will be dumb enough to watch it
