1/ A DLC paying homage to the ever popular 'Alien Invasion' genre Alien Invasion movies are an ever popular cinematic staple. With so many classic pop culture moments and 50 odd years of popular cinema to mock, subvert, satirise and pay homage too Rockstar couldnt find a more ripe western pop culture watermelon to smash into little GTAV Dlc pieces. Panic on the streets and saucers in the sky, the city, the people, civilisation unravelling as little green men in space ships attack the city. From movies like War of the worlds,signs, independance day, cloverfeild, mars attacks..etc to the classic american ufo folklore and conspiracies ala area 51 and roswell...etc An Alien Invasion DLC would offer richer pickings than another zombie themed Dlcs for both the single player story and multiplayer game modes......
2/A DLC paying homage to the ever popular 'Superhero/comic book' genre Over the past few years superhero movies have become one of the biggest cogs in Hollywoods blockbuster machine and would make an interesting genre for Rockstar to pay homage too. Players could become a hero or vilain, stopping/committing crime, creating a costume, choosing a power, fighting criminal + villains/ the law/ heroes ..etc. With films and comics such as Sin City, Judge Dredd, x men, batman, unbreakable, super, chronicle ..etc to satirise, Rockstar could make a very interesting dlc....
I may go into more detail on both these ideas later on. Any ideas for theses two possible dlcs or another cinematically themed dlc are welcome...... |
Why can't we just have a normal one like EFLC??? | Agreed, if there is DLC that is most probable. This isn't SR guys, don't ask for DLCs like this, should be fairly obvious it isn't gonna happen..

I would only go for extensions of the GTA culture and concept, no supernatural or science fiction, if it's going to be called GTAV DLC. The movies you mention are the general idea I would like. On the other hand, Rockstar has created some fantastic HD virtual worlds and I can see why people would like to play out their favorite movie role in these worlds. More power to them - just don't call it GTA. In one of the many zombie threads on this forum, I suggested that they could create a (non-GTA) DLC stand-alone game in the HD Los Santos world, based on Omega Man / I Am Legend, which is a more plausible scenario than raising the undead. And here's another idea for reuse of all of the Rockstar HD virtual world design - use Liberty City, Los Santos, LA Noire 1940's LA, RDR and Sao Paulo -- Rockstar can make a standalone game based loosely on Slaughterhouse Five, where the protag is "unstuck in time" and bounces around among different worlds and different time frames for whatever reason - I forget what the point of that movie was, other than being a vehicle for some Vonnegut cynicism. But it would enable Rockstar to cash in on these designs one more time, and a great chance for redux, for all the fans to visit their favorite places again in a new context.

Noo I dont like aliens & def not superheroes. Im not for a zombie dlc in GTA either, not like undead nightmare ( even though it was completely fine with me on RDR).
BUT, I think a zombie cheat unlock would be alright, not big or anything, it just spawns zombies randomly that attacks & turns fleeing people like in undead nightmare, strictly freeroam & maybe online mode, it starts to sound fun then..
Definitely no kind of storymode dlc though! seriously. I would totally take Episodes from Los Santos before any of that crap.

Saints Row kinda done this. It fits that kind of 'wackiness'. | Something like judge dredd or batman's gadgets would work.

HHHHmmmnnnn, I think basing gta on certain gangsta/crime/mob/heist movies would be better served with the main game, thats pretty much what gta is anyways, I dont understand the whole 'SAINT ROW' argument, saints row is imo poorly made and pretty unappealing and would thus make a poorly made and pretty unappealing sci fi/ superhero...etc dlc, where as gta on the otherhand is always well made and very very appealing and would thus make a well realised and very appealing sci fi/ superhero dlc... I think some of you have a serious lack of imagination and understanding of what rockstar/gta are capable of pulling off and should probably go wash the sand from your vaginas................
A Sin City-esque dlc would be f*cking amazing........... fact
