<p>The BioShock movie continues to have problems and has been stalled several times and, once again, production has come to a halt. The current director, Juan Carlos Fresnadillo who was brought in after Gore Verbinksi left the project, has said that he&#8217;s dropped out of the project as well.</p>
<p>Fresnadillo commented, &#8220;To be honest, by now, I&#8217;m completely out of that, and developing other stuff. Right now it&#8217;s on hold. The studio and the video game company, they have to reach some kind of agreement about the budget and the rating.&#8221;</p>
<p>The budget has been an issue for the project for a while now. This along with disagreement on the movie rating which stands; the games mood and content would fall into the R-rated criteria but such a rating wouldn&#8217;t draw as large of a crowd as if it had a PG-13 rating. Also add in the fear of another video-game movie flop where BioShock can end up like Super Mario Bros. with a nearly $20 million loss.</p>
