What games would you most like to see made into a movie?

[El Fangel]

Bioshock, Red Dead Redemption, Assassins Creed I think would turn out marvelous.

[Eklipse]

Super Mario Brothers...

[Drakul]

F-Zero. Watching Speed Racer in the cinema, I thought it looked a lot like F-Zero in the racing scenes. I never watched the anime but I thought Speed Racer drove around mountains and through deserts, not in neon lit hovering courses with corkscrews and loops etc.

Metroid.

Super Mario Bros if it was totally CGI.

Maniac Mansion if it was done as a comedy/horror that poked fun at 80's horror and B-Movies.

Zombies Ate My Neighbours as a slightly more child friendly alternative to MM. Focusing more on the 90's.

I'll probably think of more later.

[Kalyx triaD]

The Legend of Zelda, written and directed by me.
Castlevania
Halo
Guitar Hero, written by me.
Soul Calibur, written by me.

[PrettyCool]

Call Of Duty : Modern Warfare 3.

Tetris.

Bayonetta :love: :love: :love: :love: :naughty: :naughty: :naughty: :naughty:

[Drakul]

The Legend of Zelda

That is the one game I would genuinely getting annoyed about seeing a film of.

[Kalyx triaD]

Sorry to hear that, but I think there's a trilogy there.

[Drakul]

If they felt brave enough they could pull a "Wall-E" and have the film pretty much speechless. Relying on expressions, actions and music to tell the story.

Otherwise I'd be brought to tears when I heard Link speak like a kid from the OC or like Prince William.

[#BROKEN Hasney]

That is the one game I would genuinely getting annoyed about seeing a film of.

Pretty much.

Most games I like generally I'd be cautious about a film of. I've not really enjoyed most of Hollywood's output for about 5 years.

[Kalyx triaD]

Link himself could be mute. Zelda would have to talk.

[Drakul]

My big issue is accents. I just know they'd give a "Royal family" accent to all the characters purely because it involves princess', swords and sheilds.
If they didn't do that, the only alternative Hollywood seems to see is to have everyone use an American accent.

Looking at the influences through out the series, a lot of what we see in the games is taken from Celtic myth more than anything.
I had a small site where I was trying to catalogue these things a few years ago. Celtic, particularly Scottish, pretty much ran away with it when it came to influences. From music to enemies, even certain characters or their outfits.

I know they'd never do a Scottish or even Irish accented Zelda film.

[LoDownM]

None.

[Ermaximus]

Mass Effect
Jet Force Gemini
Starcraft
No More Heroes

[Kapoutman]

No More Heroes could work.

[Drakul]

I heard they were going to make a film of The Sims. No idea how they can make it specifically about The Sims unless everyone speaks giberish and doors magically vanish, killing the main characters.

[Ermaximus]

Not to mention random blurred out nude scenes.

[Extreme Angle]

Elder Scrolls.

[irishmaster]

I always wanted a Zelda film. Would be feckin immense

[Kapoutman]

I heard they were going to make a film of The Sims. No idea how they can make it specifically about The Sims unless everyone speaks giberish and doors magically vanish, killing the main characters.

Sims could be a horror movie where one guy suddenly realizes that he is not hallucinating, and that things do vanish without him wanting to. He goes to swim but the ladder disappears from the pool. Door vanish. There's also this problem where his wife goes to work but he does not know where. He follows her one day to notice that she just disappears into a void when they reach the end of the street. Someone is out to get him, but WHO?

Then at the end he realizes someone out there is controlling his life. The movie ends when his wife leaves him cause he neglected her, so he tries cooking himself a meal for the first time in his life. The oven bursts into flames because he did not have the skill points necessary, and he dies in a fire.

[El Fangel]

Just found out Bioshock may be in the works.

[Sepholio]

Red Dead would be awesome.

I also think Metroid and Castlevania could have potential.

I'd sex a chicken if it got me a big-budget Chrono Trigger movie trilogy, though.

[El Fangel]

bawk bawk bawk.

[Emperor Smeat]

Half-Life

[ClockShot]

Whatever Uwe Boll hasn't made into a movie yet.

:shifty:

[Requiem]

Read Dead would be pretty sweet. Would love if there were more westerns made today. It could be pretty intense.

[El Fangel]

Has there been a decent western made in the last 20 years?

[Requiem]

3:10 to Yuma was decent
True Grit was alright.

Tombstone is fucking awesome and it was 1993.

[Requiem]

The Assassination Of Jesse James By The Coward Robert Ford, which I personally loved, although it is not a 'traditional' western really.

[Seth82]

would love to see the Call of Duty games made into a movie series

[CSL]

Max Payne :'(

[Kalyx triaD]

would love to see the Call of Duty games made into a movie series

You never seen The Rock?

[El Fangel]

The Assassination Of Jesse James By The Coward Robert Ford, which I personally loved, although it is not a 'traditional' western really.

Ill have a look at this asap. Also Tombstone barely makes the 20 year cut.

Max Payne :'(

I started this game because of you. Forgot about it til now.

[Requiem]

TAOJJBTCRF is as long as the name, and kind of slow. Fucking beautiful movie though. Casey Affleck is intensely amazing.

[El Fangel]

Tombstone is near three hours, so is Scarface. I find most movies that are 2.5+ hours are well done actually.

[dronepool]

Metal Gear Solid.
Legacy of Kain/Soul Reaver.

[XCaliber]

Uncharted
Bioshock
Deus Ex

[stultiloquy]

Definitely the Legacy of Kain series.
That aside, I think Enslaved has potential, as does Vanquish.

[Fignuts]

Metroid

The whole "speechless" idea would suit it far better than Zelda.

[Raven Reaper]

Super Mario Brothers...

With Dennis Hopper as King Koopa? :p

my other suggestions:

Duke Nukem
Command and Conquer Red Alert

[Drakul]

Bionic Commando

[OssMan]

They're making one for Final Fantasy X called 3:10 to Yuna

[OssMan]

Elite beat agents

[PrettyCool]

OMG Yuna.... :love:

I dont think I could last 3:10 w/ Yuna.

:love:

[Maya Bristow]

Metroid if done right could have potential, as long as Samus isn't given much dialogue (certainly not the dialogue that made her act like a brat at time in Metroid Other M) and get a athletic woman to play Samus outside of her Power Suit and maybe some scenes of Samus in the Power suit that don't involve heavy action

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

If Uwe Boll stops directing them whatever video game movie would be fine.

[Drakul]

The could do heavy action scenes in the power suit by using CGI, like the Iron Man films. They'd be using CGI for Ridley and other creatures anyway.

Who would you cast as the ideal Samus Aran?

[PrettyCool]

Who would you cast as the ideal Samus Aran?

Maryse

[Skippord]

Madden 2010

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Who would you cast as the ideal Samus Aran?

Maybe the Hunger Games chick.

[Fignuts]

Who would you cast as the ideal Samus Aran?

Gina Carrano

[Fignuts]

or Milla Jovovich.

[Fignuts]

Wouldn't even reveal her until the end of the movie, just like the games.

[Ermaximus]

Maybe the Hunger Games chick.

Maybe, dunno.

Gina Carrano

Would be hot.

or Milla Jovovich.

I'm not sold on her anymore Loved her as Leelo, and she does good as Alice, but I dunno.

I was thinking maybe Mila Kunis? Perhaps Natalie Portman?

[Sepholio]

Megan Fox. :shifty:

[Fignuts]

I dunno, I feel like Jovovich is like the female chuck norris.

[Kane Knight]

Would love to see Kal try and make these movies he's talking about. Based on his prior slashfics, he could be the next Uwe Bolle.

Wouldn't even reveal her until the end of the movie, just like the games.

In her panties for no apparent reason?

[Ermaximus]

If Kalyx is the next Uwe Boll, then Porksoda is the next Rob Riener.

[Kane Knight]

If Kalyx is the next Uwe Boll, then Porksoda is the next Rob Riener.

So he's gonna make the next Sally Struthers get really fat and whiny?

[Ermaximus]

Sure, why not.

[Kane Knight]

He's going to direct a campy cult favourite like the Princess Bride?

[Ermaximus]

I could see Porksoda doing that. Perhaps he'll do a similar story, but with a delightful spin on it?

Has PS actually demonstrated any writing on here? I started off joking, but now I'm curious.

[RP]

Borderlands

[Ermaximus]

I kind of am too KK. I'd say if anything, CTS could be hired on to write, but CTS would likely laugh at the prospect of writing a script for PS.

[RP]

I would cast the bad guy from Snatch and that Stone Cold movie as Brick

[Zeeboe]

http://images.wikia.com/gtawiki/images/2/21/Manhuntbox.jpg

I would cream myself if they made this. I think this is one of the best fuckin' video games ever made, but dammit, please don't bother to make it if you're not gonna make it right. i.e. Make it how the game is. Keep all the same characters, and all the same gangs. I'd be okay with adding a clown gang since the game was going to have them. And we'd have to have Piggsy!

Ideally, I'd like to see this movie be "Escape from New York" meets "The Warriors" meets "Friday the 13th". Making it 3-D would be cool too. Have the whole film take place at night. No daytime shots at all. Make it dark, gritty, and violent as hell.

Most likely, they'd turn James Earl Cash into some misunderstood hero who gets framed, and I'd be okay with that. Even though it's not apart of the game's story, I'd welcome that. Get some 30-something year old unknown actor to play Cash, and have Cash be some famous ex-sniper for the Marines, then have Starkweather set him up for murder. Like maybe he frames him for the murder of the President, or some higher up, which gets Cash sent to Death Row, which gets Cash into the hands of Starkweather who likes Cash because he knows he's good at killing. Of course, I wouldn't bitch if they kept it like the game and just made how Cash he is in the game, and is just a serial killer who's origins are unknown.

I did mention I'd like to see an unknown actor as cash, but if the producers needed a bankable name to play the part, I'd suggest Jason Statham or Christian Bale. I'd also love to see Stone Cold Steve Austin play the leader of the Nazi gang, the Skinzs, and have Samuel L. Jackson as Ramirez, and I'd say keep Brian Cox for Starkweather. He already does the voice in the game, and I think during the whole movie, the way Starkweather should be used should be like how the killers in "When A Stranger Calls" or "Phone Booth" were used where we only hear Starkweather's voice through out the film, and don't actually see him until the end, and you could use any actor then to play the physical role of Starkweather.

If I had total creative control, I'd love to see Robert Rodriguez in the director's chair and have him write the screenplay. I'd need an R-rating too so the film can have lots of cursing and lots of blood and violence, and then when the blu-ray comes out, give it the "unrated snuff edition".


.....Too bad none of this is going to happen. lol. And it's not that heartbreaking. I'm happy with the game alone.

[Kalyx triaD]

I think I could do a decent 'Hollywood friendly' Guitar Hero but I'd need a partner for the comedic bits.

Zelda I would love to write, but there's no way most of you would like how I'd do it. Link would be mute, with Navi doing most the talking in a similar vein to Master Chief and Cortana's set-up. Zelda, the King, and Ganondorf would speak normally, of course. It would fuse elements of Link to the Past for structure and recent Zelda games for content. I would do everything in my power to include a chicken revolt scene.

I could do Soul Calibur in my sleep, but I could only choose one of the three main eras of the series. Sophitia starring, Kilik starring, or Seigfried starring. Won't bother with the Patroklos era, it would be polarizing, I think.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Borderlands

Borderlands story seems to suck ass from how long I've played. Not sure how it would be a good movie.

[Shisen Kopf]

Tetris would be a sweet movie. So would Bubble Bobble but the movie that needs to be made the most is Duck Hunt.

[XCaliber]

Tetris would be a sweet movie.

[Kane Knight]

Tetris would be a sweet movie.

Kalyx is attached to write the scipt.

[Kalyx triaD]

The movie would be a big metaphor where the cast are all essentially pieces who are forced to work together for a museum in Russia. It isn't until the character representing the line piece joins that they begin to extend the time needed to open an American museum in Russia before they lose their lease to a local mafia.

Character driven comedy.

[PorkSoda]

I kind of am too KK. I'd say if anything, CTS could be hired on to write, but CTS would likely laugh at the prospect of writing a script for PS.

I have "stolen" some dialogue that I have read here on TPWW from people such as Anybody Thrilla and CTS and put them into a script. So I don't really need to hire CTS, I could just ask him a question and he'd just naturally give a response.

[The Show Off]

Has there been a decent western made in the last 20 years?

Unforgiven is one of the 3 best westerns of all time and that was made exactly 20 years ago. Also the remake of 3:10 to Yuma as well as The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford
