Agree with Half-Life somewhat, although a movie of an already massively cinematic game may just cheapen the original experience.


Also, what if I pick like a book or a video game that wouldn't work as live action but would as an animated series or feature? Fuck it, I'm including those.

For my part:



Not specifically this Episode, but just Commander Keen in general.



Would be an amazing animated movie.



Monkey Island could work either as a finite movie series that tries to translate the games (which wouldn't be so great IMO) or as an ongoing TV show. Animated preferable to live-action because of voice-casting continuities and inevitable comparisons to PotC.

Wouldn't mind seeing on-screen translations of Y: The Last Man (in the pipeline still?), Transmetropolitan, Preacher, and 100 Bullets. The last one would probably work really well as a TV show due to the way its constructed. In fact, all of those would probably work better as mini-series rather than stand-alone movies or trilogies or whatever.
