Default Citizen Siege Film Pitches

The Oddworld Forums and The Oddworld Library would like to present the first proper realisations of the up-and-coming Citizen Siege film directed by Lorne Lanning and executively produced by Sherry McKenna.

The attached images are the creation of Raymond Swanland (a former OWI employee), and were part of a set of images used to pitch the film to prospective studios. As such, these images are from very early on in the films pre-production and are therefore very much open to change.

Wowowee... Who sent these to you?

These really emphasise the true tone of the film.

Furthermore, expect better quality versions of these images, plus possibly more pitches in the future (not neccessarily from me). Can't provide a timeframe, I'm afraid.

Coolage. What can we deduce from these images?

The women is either a hostage or boss of some company, either way presumably a main character. She is either being questioned by police, or perhaps laywers/spokepersons from other companies, and she is having difficulty paying debts or something from the huge business she may be running.

A heavily industrialised world is partially at least ruled by the big companies from today, such as shell. The common public is presumably being ripped off, or the Earth's oil resources have been drained very low by this point in time. Heavily armed guards seem to be necassary now, or just extra, nervous precautions. Presumably that is a line of employees, being either guarded or scanned by the guard for bombs or weapons.

A guard turret is being attacked by soliders or something, some sort of battle/war going on is my best guess. Many more soldiers can be seen in the background. Would the four-armed creature on the right be a robot of some sort?

The last one shows a virtually empty street, perhaps the man in the center is the protagonist? We can see that at the very least pigeons or crows have survived in cities.

Veeeeeeeery interesting stuff here. Despite being open to change, we can be certain of the heavy industrial theme here, perhaps a possible future representation of our world.

Oh, and thx much for them. SOmething to tide us over for about 2 days before we start becoming more irritable again at the lack of news...

The images shown are not the originals, I've cropped out what is for the most part, unneccessary information. However, the image in question does contain text underneath that reads:
“Disappears...
Birth - 21st Century Superhero...”
Which would presumably indicate that this is indeed our protagonist/hero - and that the film is set before the year 2100.

Alcar and I had a discussion about this already. I'm under the impression that these are pictures from the movie pitch and, as such, would presume that there is some sort of action/gladiatorial scene in the film.

AH, yes, after seeing the extra pictures, rather than a war, it seems to be a battle between purely robots, for the sake of entertainment.

The step up from video-games and moves I guess.

. . . j/k. And I'm not funny. Although I'm still kind of sceptical about Citizen Seige (takes inspiration from George Orwell's 1984, so did Half-Life 2, ideas and settings seem to be a little similar, OWI wanna release CS as a game too, Valve may have already done it IMO even if they didn't release HL2 as a movie, CS maybe a flop 'cause of this, and let's not forget when they tried to break new ground with MO and failed miserably, etc, but you see what I'm getting at, right?), this concept artwork that you got hold of looks really interesting. But I can't help the feeling that I've seen it all before somehow, and not just in HL2's concepts.

Despite what I've just said though, don't get me wrong. I really hope CS will go far - I mean, these concepts do look quite promising too. I just hope that OWI know what they're doing.

Wow, those look very impressive
Not very far from what I expected to see, i.e. a dark, industrialised atmosphere...I can definitely see Lorne in those images (his ideas I mean). Even though I'm not a big fan of Swanland, I'm amazed. I'm relatively optimistic about CS being a success.

Looking at my originals, I don't think so. While the first word (the one on top) does appear like 'Wage', the second word is not 'Wars'.

Furthermore, for anyone that wishes to purchase the book where these images are taken from, you can do so through Amazon. Be warned, out of 160 pages, only 10 are devoted to Lorne Lanning / Oddworld / Citizen Siege.

Looks like ‘Wage Wars’ to me. I can make out each letter, even though these are crops of screen captures of a PDF file of scans of prints of photos of a screen of slideshow thumbnails of scans of the original paintings. It’s in the fourth picture down, too.

Cheers for sharing these scans, Alcar. I've been waiting some time to have enough money to buy Ian’s book (hasn’t happened yet), so these make for a splendid preview. And like you’ve hinted, we are hoping for better copies L-later.

I was only looking at the third slide - where the 'w' in 'wars' isn't so discernible. The fourth slide however, confirms that it is indeed Wage Wars, as the 'w' is clear.

If we mean the red text on the right of the screen, it looks more like "Wage Gay" to me.

Anyways, I've made a wallpaper using this concept art, in case you want to see it. You can find it over at this topic:

That's what I saw, as well.. I wasn't going to say anything, though.

What do you think they're betting on?

Thanks to Oddworld, Alcar, and Oddworld Library for these. Truly great.

Wage Wars is going to be some violent entertainment... Can't wait to play it...

They must be betting on who's going to survive.


The public should be allowed to send sms to give some warriors better weapons and stuff, or who has to die by the BonusBomb (made up) just because they don't like him.

Endless possibilities
