What video game would you like to see made into a movie?
 
I was checking out Diesel Mac's thread about mortal kombat being the greatest video game movie and I agree. I just wanted to see everyone's opinion on which games would make good movies (sequels included). This may have been done but i'm new.I'll go first


I would actually like to see a second Silent Hill

Another MK was in the works with all the originals coming back but I think it got scrapped. :(

D Mac 08-06-2009 04:31 PM

For those of you thinking about a GTA movie, I read that the rumor was shot down.

D Mac 08-06-2009 04:31 PM

A Mass Effect movie would be cool.

XCaliber 08-06-2009 04:35 PM

This is such an easy one for me they have to make a Wolfenstein movie sooner or later but they have to do it properly not half assed like most video game movies are done.

No way could they describe such a convulted story in an AT LEAST 3 hour movie.

It would require a mini series on Showtime or HBO.

RoXer 08-06-2009 07:44 PM

Ilm also writing a Left 4 Dead movie along with my Team Fortress movie.

There will be 3 sequels to the L4D movie.

I'm a busy man :-(

That's why you condense, cut out, add in, formulate a plot easier to follow and make it a rockin feature. If the fans are so fucking dipshit to even expect all of the drama from the series as a whole in one movie, fuck em.

I'm out to rape childhoods.

Remember the Super Mario Brothers movie? :lol:

PorkSoda 08-07-2009 12:10 AM

No. Are you talking about the TV show instead?

Duke Nukem? I'd have low expectations, but it could be a little bit decent..

Burger Time.
ToeJam and Earl.
Road Rash (Hell yeah!)
MARBLE MADNESS!!!!!

CSL 08-07-2009 12:39 AM

No, he's talking about the really bad Bob Hoskins film

Why would you want a movie of a modern day game. They practicly ARE movies.

Legend of Zelda and Metroid are at the top of my list.

Castlevania would be cool, as well as a proper street fighter movie.

Like seriously, probably the most ironic suggestion.

CSL 08-07-2009 01:48 AM

Streets of Rage

Fignuts 08-07-2009 01:52 AM

That is another excellent suggestion.

Also, Pixar should make a Mario Bros. movie. That would be awesome.

Drakul 08-07-2009 02:43 AM

Maniac Mansion would be cool as a movie. I'm aware they made a tv show that was nothing like the game.

A CG Mario movie or even Luigis Mansion? I see potential for a childrens movie in either.

I agree with MGS. They could make it a trilogy if cutting the story down wasn't going to work.
Metroid could work to. I remember there was news that someone bought the rights to make one or someone had written a script and they knew who they wanted as Samus or something. That was about 2 or 3 years ago now.

Asteroids is getting a movie and if they can make a movie about Asteroids, any game can have one...

...except Zelda. A Zelda movie would have a cast that sound like they are from California. I'm betting they'd probably get Zac Eferon as Link if they ever did a Zelda movie but like I said when the April Fools prank Zelda movie trailer came out, Miyamoto has said a bunch of times that he'd never allow a Zelda movie.

Yeah, that has been planned for a while. It was on and off a lot for a while but now it's in the works, apparantly. It'll be claymation. I can't see it being widely released in cinemas with it's strange world and story and with it being claymation in a world where everything that's not live action is CG. I'm thinking it could go to one of those "art" cinemas.

muffalufagus 08-07-2009 02:46 AM

Zelda
Metroid
Final Fight

PorkSoda 08-07-2009 07:16 AM

What about Contra or Golden Axe?

And ToeJam and Earl, I mentioned above about that, I'd kill myself laughing if I went to deliver mail in a blue mailbox then it just grew arms and legs and started chasing me going "BLALALALAL!" I might do that for Halloween this year - or even today. Dress up as a mailbox then someone comes....

RBM 08-07-2009 06:21 PM

Starcraft.

I actually watched Silent Hill with a friend on demand.

It was one of the most depressing movies I've ever seen in my life. And not depressing in a good way, like how a great film might make you feel down or bleak about certain things or the characters.

It just depressed the shit out of us how bad it was, and how bland and boring it was. It was brutally violent and bizarre, but in a tasteless manner. It wasn't even interesting or scary like horror should be. It was just tasteless.
The entire thing was like a rainy day in an eastern european slum. Did I mention how boring, tasteless, and drab this movie is?

I legitimately class it as one of the worst 5-10 movies I've ever seen.

Jeritron 08-07-2009 06:41 PM

I'd like to see a Zelda or Halo movie done right. They probably have the best chances of adapting in a quality manner, and have a good amount of people who will give a fuck.

But they won't be done right. It would take a lot of money and a skilled filmmaker to correctly do either, and the studios won't invest either into it.

So I say they're better left alone

parkmania 08-07-2009 09:13 PM

Battletoads!

Supposedly they're working on getting Earthworm Jim back into the mainstream - either on TV or in theatres.
