What do you want to see as a movie?
 
<font color="#0080FF" face="Arial" Size="2">I've been thinking about all these tv shows, books, comics, etc being turned into movies so what would you guys like to see turned into a movie or if it's already being made then what are you looking forward to?

One for me would be an Angel movie although I would rather see the series be continued instead of a movie.

Ok. Go!

Metal Gear or a Mr Rogers biopic, that would be pretty good.

Nowhere Man 09-02-2007 12:45 PM

A faithful, non-Americanized version of the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy would've made my day. I suppose I can wait for a remake in 20 years or so.

MGS would be pretty awesome to see on the big screen, as long as they don't treat it like every other video game movie and hand it to some hack like Uwe Boll or Paul Anderson.

And I'd still like to see a well-done Captain America movie, now that the guy who got him killed is getting his own flick.

Guitar Hero. It could be about these wannabe guitarist (based on the in-game characters with Judy Nails as the primary) entering a Rock-Off competition for various personal reasons. Like Enter the Dragon meets School of Rock. The tournament would ofcourse feature covers of the game's soundtrack, or better yet a new soundtrack that a movie tie-in game could use. The premise writes itself.

The Spectre (based on volume 3) would make a pretty awesome movie if done right (ie, based on volume 3).

Kane Knight 09-02-2007 02:09 PM

Let's see:

Hitchiker's Guide, a version that doesn't suck.

A Faithful version fo "The Shadow." I don't care if it's modernised, but let's make one that doesn't suck.

A big Budget Sherlock Holmes title. Preferably not Baskervilles or something that's been done to death.

The Dresden Files. There's a series, but the only thing is has in common with the series are the names. A Big Budget Storm Front would be kickass, but Summer Knight would be even better.

Tekkaman Blade. Tell the story in 3-4 movies, story arcs that can stand alone, but are part of a series.

Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

Probably about 8 billion more.

You know for some reason when you said that the movie Bratz appeared in my head.

The Life Story of Mos Def, starring Mos Def. So Mos Def can receive an Oscar cause he is so badass and deserves all sort of awards.

It's not exactly an RoTK movie. It's in the same ballpark, and yet...

You have no idea.

Perfect Dark needs a feature, or a TV show.

while i thought the orginal was pretty good id like to see the following thing done right on the silver screen....and this is a long time coming....

Super Fucking Mario Brothers (with that very title, to let you know this ones not fucking around)

Jura 09-04-2007 01:30 AM

Sounds like a porno movie sir...that gives me an idea for another thread.

A Mario Bros. movie done in line with the games would make my head hurt. Though I'm honestly surprised it hasn't been attempted.

On a different note, I'd like to see someone do a really good King Arthur movie. No fucking around with the legend and making him Roman or some other stupid crap; just a solid adaptation of The Once and Future King or Morte d'Arthur would be nice.

ron the dial 09-05-2007 11:04 AM

HOLY SHIT apparently they are working on a film version of Youth In Revolt with Michael Cera as Nick Twisp. That is possibly the most amazing thing I have heard in a long time.

I've always thought that would make a great movie.

On the Stephen King theme, a short story/novella he wrote as Richard Bachman, The Long Walk. As well as The Running Man (a version that actually followss the story and not that abortion that Arnie crapped out years ago)

A faithful adaptation of Running Man would be awesome, but there's no way in hell that they'd go with the original ending these days.

OMG IT's IMPOSSIBLE!

Almost as hard as say, paring down the Sengoku Jiddai to a movie which managed to tell the whole story but focused on specific events.

Anf God, telling a movie as part of a series?

The problem with King Arthur is that the story has been told so often, people tend to try and "change" it. You know, to improve shit. Usually fails, but....

It's also not unsurprising that people would want to go to the Roman roots of Arthur, since a fair portion of the legend comes from them.

That being said, I'd really like a traditional Arthur.

However, if you're gonna go the route of a semi-historical Arthur, go for an adaptation of "Mad Merlin." I thoroughly enjoyed the book, which has no pretenses of historical accuracy, but uses a Roman and British backdrop.

It's a great story of tyranny and betrayal.. Prolly my favorite King book..

On a similar subject, they are in post production the short story he wrote called The Mist.. They shot it in Shreveport and I went in the grocery store set and got to see all the monsters and shit last time I was out there.. It was pretty sweet..

Cabal by Clive Barker would make a good movie..

Drakul 09-08-2007 12:28 AM

Red Dwarf with the cast from the show
I'd say Hitman but they did that and it doesn't even seem to resemble the games at all.
I'd like an MGS movie aswell but I've lost faith in every seeing them do a decent VG movie.

I hope they never ever even attempt a Zelda movie. Not only would they give Link lines, I bet he would be American. So would Zelda and any other character except Ganondorf who would have either a Middle Eastern accent or an "evil genuis" English accent.

Kris P Lettus 09-08-2007 12:30 AM

Well, considering Hyrule isn't a real place, where you want link to be from??

ron the dial 09-08-2007 12:32 AM

I'm sure that a Zelda movie could be pulled off, but I don't want to see it. I just can't see it living up to what I would expect.
