Striders, War of the Worlds and a HL movie?

[Myxomatosis]

Gordon would become like a mythical figure that everyone speaks of but no one ever sees.

You know, I was thinking of that exact same thing.. but for some reason I just don't think it will work. Who would be the main characters then? For a HL2 setting, I doubt Eli or Kliener would be good. Alyx didn't do much.. so I doubt her..but possible. Unless they did a movie about dog.. rofl.
