I've been hugely disappointed with the lack of creativity that goes into a movie that's based off of a video game. I still say, to this day, the only movie that was done right was Mortal Kombat, even if there was a lack of blood and guts. They did the movie right, and it brings a disappointment to me when I talk about its sequel.

I know this topic has been talked about a lot, but since there's been a heck of a lot of newer games that were released and such, I was wondering what you guys want to have be turned into a movie.

I know that there will probably never be a movie based on a Nintendo game ever since the horrific Mario Bros. movie came out, but I am still hoping for a Metroid movie, and I'm sure Zelda would be another choice, even though I have never really touched the series.

Grand Theft Auto could be another, but you do have a lot of mafia/gang-related movies out there, could this one be any different or remain the same as those?

Metal Gear Solid I would love to see, but unfortunately, I will not appreciate anyone else doing Snake's voice. Unless the voice actor himself is portraying as Snake, the only thing, he looks nothing like Snake...

There's a number of other games I would love to see too, Warcraft, only problem is what side will they base it off of? Diablo. God of War, Perfect Dark...

What's yours?

Devil May Cry would be so fucking cool. I'd also like to see a really well done Bioshock movie.

There is a few that I would like to see a real life movie of, not an animated movie.

Assassins Creed Series. I think this would be a great game that could be turned into a movie. The only problem I would have with it is how they would be portraying the series because it is my favorite series. I would love to see a nice air kill from ezio and altiar onthe big screen. Maybe someone like Johnny Depp for Ezio and Keanu Reeves for Desmond.

Halo 1-3. Come on, dont tell me you wouldnt wanna see John 117 in a movie. Throw in micheal bay and his love of explosions. I think we have a box office hit on our hands.

God of War. I love mythology, loved what they did with this game, and really love movies based on mythology. It would just be a badass movie.

Bioshock would be excellent Holllywood material.

Portal and Halo could also work.

Then I'd suggest you check out the Fallout Nuka Break series on YouTube. It's really well-made.

jericho. lot's of cinamatics. very cool monsters and could be done by the creator which is clieve barker. lots of cgi and gore. if never played the game you should.

darkwatch. it's got alot of cinamatics. cool weapons. decent monsters and is more fun than halo in my opinion.

god of war. what's not to like. hydras,medusa's,gods,whores, lot's of violence. i'd like to see the creator of 300 direct the film.

killzone. don't base it off the sequels and what not base it off the original. could be very cool if done right.

halo. have the director of district 9 make this a great film. if not have spielberg work his magic on this big hit.

twisted metal. what's not to like explosions. maniac ice cream driver and so fourth. i can kinda see it being like the death race film but much more improved.

diablo. one of my favorite series of all time. it can be done bigger and better than lord of the rings. demons,spiders,goatmen, skeletons and etc.

bioshock. this game was like a movie nuff said.

star wars knights of the old republic. could be very well done. it's before darth, yoda and etc. be dark be light. you decide.

ninja gaiden. it can be great. just think of ninja assassin meets the matrix with monsters and samurais.

these would be my choices for great games to be made into epic movies.

Uncharted - This is pretty much a movie, but if they do make an Uncharted movie, it has to have that epicness Uncharted has.
inFAMOUS - That would be Badass.
God of War - If it's well made, it would be movie of the year, FO-SHO.
Dead Island - The DIRECTOR for The Walking Dead would make it fuck BAWSE!
Batman: Arkham Asylum/City - Nuff said.
thats pretty much all i could think of.

RESIDENT EVIL!! >.<

Yes, I realise that it was made into a movie, but I absolutely loathe the movies. The only remotely good one was the first, and anything else from that was shite. It's like as if Paul Anderson thought of a shit script, said to himself "oh hai lets add muh wife in and show her titties at least once a moovy and add some refferences to the games that make no sense ktnksbi!" and there you have it, a failed attempt at a Resident Evil Movie.

I'd love to see the Re:Make for the gamecube be remade into a movie. It's perfect! Jill, Chris, Barry, and Wesker arrive at the house. Jill and Chris go to examine the gunshot in the dining room, Barry and Wesker go missing from the Hall, so Chris and Jill seperate to look for them. Jill ends up being attacked by Lisa Trevor in the cabin as Chris fights Yawn in the attic. Just to cut time, have a refference to Neptune and Plant 42, but ultimately have the story follow canon.

The mansion incident is perfect for a movie. They'd be insane not to make that a literal script.

I said this in a different thread, but I think that the Super Mario Bros. Movie deserves a second chance. With good special effects and decent writers and actors, I think it could be way better than the first version. I'm thinking it could be sort of like Avatar, only blending real life actors with CGI as opposed to having it be full CGI.

I know that a lot of people think that Mario shouldn't have any sort of story, but I disagree. As long as it's relatively simple, and it incorporates a lot of things from the game without introducing too much of its own stuff, it can be a good story and an entertaining visual experience.

I'd like to see a new Mario movie because I'd like to see a different version of all the characters. I'd love to see what Yoshi would look like on the big screen, especially since the games have always been sort of the same looking, and I'd like us fans to get repayed for the last time someone tried to make a Mario movie.

Another series I see a lot of potential in is the Legend of Zelda series. I remember the IGN april fools trailer. It showed that it was possible to do something decent with a Nintendo game movie. Too bad it was fake. I don't know much about Zelda, but I'm pretty sure each one takes place in a different time period. So they have a lot of options should they decide to make one. I'd like to see it take place during one of the earlier games just to bring the 8-bit to llife.

Soul Calibur. Its got everything. Pirates, Zombies, Ninjas, Samurai, Knights, Demonic Swords, Dominatrixes, Shaolin Monks, Pneumatic Blondes...

Mass Effect. Doesn't even need to be based on Shepard, there is a genuine universe in the game.

That could be cool.

I think Twisted Metal Black would make a good one too. Also, Primal Rage, but its long since passed it's prime. :/

Red Dead Redemption.

This would make a great fucking movie. It could have been a movie itself, instead of a game.
