Max Payne movie to have gnr?

[St_Jimmyuk]

I was doing a search for shaklers information on google the other day to see what other people (non-gnr) fans are saying about it and I came across a thread of people really angry at gnr saying how bad they are etc however this is moving away from my point.  Someone also pointed out how the makers of this film (Max Payne) based on the video game have maid millions to use a gnr song and now are cutting the special effects budget massively instead of just dropping the song.

Does anyone know how true this is and if so what song has been chosen, i'm guessing it will be an old one?

It would be cool...

[eggers]

Millions? Even the Led Zep song in School of Rock only cost around $200K.  No way is a GN'R song going to cost more than that.

[St_Jimmyuk]

again this was only conversation on a forum so their facts may be wrong but apparently its enough to cause fury over the fact they are cutting the budget for special effects than drop the song.

I think that'd be great, Max Payne is fucking cool game series and Gnr go without saying.  I think Welcome To The Jungle would be good, as the breakdown would be perfect for a bullet-time.

p.s. is this the quote you mean?

Fox paid ~750k JUST to be able to use one of their tracks to use in the Max Payne movie...AND THEY KEEP CUTTING THE FX BUDGET

Marco Beltrami is doing the music for the movie, so there is that possible connection to the GN'R camp, the movie is coming out in october so the timing (with Rock Band 2) would seem to make sense, rated PG-13 so it has wide audience, also looks to be the only upcoming movie for the rest of the year that possibly could have a GN'R song in it, well except for maybe Madagascar 2 

So it could be possible, but I wouldn't hold my breath

Well, I love the Max Payne games, so I wouldn't mind if this rumor turns out to be true. Hell, we thought the Rock Band 2 rumor was unlikely, why not this one?

Is a fair point, can't help but be skeptical though 

The biggest album of all time will need to hit every type of audience possible......hmmmmmm! We've got the videogame, why not a film. GNR needs to get themselves back out there after all.

[Voodoochild]

Indeed!

And isn't Max Payne about a revenge too?

Stop It!

no thats not what i saw but is along the same lines that could be where the guy i saw post got his information from and then just added to the money as he said millions but hell 750k is still a lot to use one song

[GNRreunioneventually]

wow thats pretty heavy man, hope its true that would be yet another iconic symbol that would follow G'n'R forever

[Voodoochild]

So, just for the record, where's the original source?

[Jizzo]

i doubt it

[St_Jimmyuk]

I can't remember it was just on a forum talking about rock band 2 so there is no official source just someone talking, i don't know where they first heard it as ive not heard anything about it until now.

Does anyone know how true this is and if so what font  has been chosen, i'm guessing it will be an old one?

Max Payne, the games rule.

Hope the movie will be good. Imagine the cheese of it, he walks into the subway ready to kick some ass, welcome to the jungle intro playing.

Movie songs and video games are all cool stuff, truely it is.

But

you knew that was coming 

I've got an 18 hour day going on most days and it doesn't include GNR in the background of video games and movies.  To start with, while MTV sucks, in the mornings they do play videos.  It would be great to get out the door with GNR.  There's lot of room in an 18 hour day for GNR to be palying in the background. 

Where's that cd boys?     Have not lost my focus.
