About the UT Movies...

I'm writing a two-part script. Both are experimental sci-fi visions, based strongly on the Unreal universe. The first one has a main female lead as prisoner 849, as she struggles to survive and eventually escape the exotic Skaarj-controlled world of Na Pali. The second is based roughly on the tournament series, centering on the lucrative New Earth Government and the Liandri Mining Corporation using the tournament as an outlet for the violence inherent in society, especially during a colonizing-frontier space-age. I'm not in the movie business, I just happen to be a writer with a sense for outlandish yet technically advanced material (I'm also an engineer). Maybe someone will pick it up and turn it into a movie. The way I envision it would be more of a story to tell of a space age society, and the struggles that come with colonizing and interacting with other species, fronting gladiatorial exhibitions to fund further reach out into space. The Skaarj are depicted as utterly brutal in the first part, especially regarding their treatment of the native Nali; they make Predator look like ET. I picture each one running at 2-2.5 hours. The first one showing all the paradisiacal landscapes of Na Pali, beginning with the rude awakening on the vortex rikers, to the depths of the tarydium mines, to the nali water temple of Chizra, as well as the Terraniux Complex, the ISV Kran, The Sunspire, Skytown, Bluff Eversmoking, Nali Castle, and lastly, the Skaarj Mothership. I'm still deciding whether to incorporate plot elements of "Return to Na Pali" into the first one. If I do, it will most likely be the nagomi passage/bounds of foundry region because it was different.

In the second script I've already written several battle scenes, the first takes place in the "condemned" map, which is an urban environment, and the opening scene which places two opposing teams closing in for the finish on a capture-the-flag match. The other battle scenes I've written include (yes the facing worlds is what I would consider to be the biggest one in the movie script) Facing Worlds CTF, High Speed and Ocean Floor Assault, Morpheus Deathmatch, Deck 16 Deathmatch, A small scene from the fan-loved "pressure" level, and concluding in an epic four-fight finale where Liandri pits an unsuspecting underdog team rising through the ranks of the professional league against its most elite cybernetic killing machines. The four major opponents of Damien, Rampage, Dominator, and Xan do make appearances here. Xan appears several times in the script, both in scenes detesting to his ruthlessness as a competitor at the "eternal cave" arena, and during a behind-the-scenes of Liandri's operations and acquirement of such cybernetics. There is no major plot involving the downfall of the corrupt Liandri corporation, but it is seen as an interstellar body composed of various races, including an emissary from the skaarj empire that is also waging a war with humanity on other fronts (if you recall from Unreal). It will be about 3/5 action scenes the rest are all visuals, showing new technology and innovative weapons used by the tournament, arenas, training of the competitors, selection process, and a history of the time in the "unreal" universe, including violence among deep space miners!

I will release it for free online when I'm done writing it. Now mind you its set up as a movie screenplay/script. It can be interpreted in any way but if edited I would just like a reference as the original author in your edit! Thanks and I hope that one day a movie of this awesome violent sci-fi epic is made!
