PORTAL

produced by J.J. Abrams

The Portal movie was announced back in 2013 and had been in limbo since then.

The only info we got was back in 2016 with JJ Abrams confirming that it was being written.

Now 5 years later in 2021 he has again confirmed that the movie is being written. I expect that this is a new script based on a new pitch.

“We actually do have a script that’s being written for the Portal movie now at Warner Bros.. We’re really excited about the take and the pitch, so it feels like that thing’s finally on the rails.”

About Portal

The Portal games are 2 of the most critically acclaimed games ever. In the game you play as a woman, Chell, who is forced to undergo a series of tests within the Aperture Science Enrichment Center by a malicious artificial intelligence, GLaDOS, that controls the facility.

Most of the tests involve using the "Aperture Science Handheld Portal Device" – the "portal gun" – that creates a human-sized wormhole-like connection between two flat surfaces. The player-character or objects in the game world may move through portals while conserving their momentum.

Cautiously IN

oh wow in !

oh its still alive?

remember when portal had a playable piece of promotional material for Super 8 in it?
has this been on the table for that long??

I hope it’s good

Produced by JJ Abrams

need JK Simmons as the same character from the games.

i also think damon lindelof style/sense of humour and weirdness would fit with a HBO Portal show but not as much for a movie.

dan trachtenberg would make sense with his portal short

Why watch a movie when you can play the whole thing in 1.5 hrs??

Like what will this movie be about? lol

Fancy

In

Very cautiously in

Could be absolutely terrible

Could be good

man i remember when this was first announced at that weird press conference

excited to see what this turns into

It’s dumb as f*** lmao. Some types of media just doesn’t translate to film well, yet Hollywood is all about those unnecessary adaptations

Could actually be cool

Feel like James Gunn could do it really well

are these games worth playing? idk if id be interested in a game that's strictly puzzles with no combat tbh

In but cautious

Yep they are

Some of the best f***ing puzzles ever though. And the writing is so damn good. Also as you progress the game just gets way more interesting.
