Hideo Kojima Quotes

• Honestly, I’m a movie fan and that’s very special to me. I honestly would love to make a movie someday, but that said, I think it has to be a certain special game that has to provide that right setting. But I don’t think that game will be Metal Gear Solid. Metal Gear Solid was developed specifically to become a game. …If it were to be made into a movie it would have to be something completely new. I wouldn’t use my current scripts. I think I’d have to get somebody to get a new script and somebody else to direct it as a movie.
• The human body is supposed to be 70 percent water. I consider myself 70 percent film.
