Games that need to be made into movies

[QUOTE="funsohng"]

For fvck's sake, please watch good movies that are still coming out in good numbers. People just see Transformers, Battleship, and sh*ts like that and think the ENTIRE goddamn movie industry is out of creativity. Far from the truth. It's like looking at Call of Duty only and lamenting there are no games that aren't FPS or modern military shooter.

I'd much rather watch a movie with solid snake or kratos than a bunch of oversized toys transform into racecars

[QUOTE="OB-47"]

[QUOTE="drinkerofjuice"]I think Deus Ex COULD work, assuming just the setting is used and not the stories nor characters. And despite already having two bad films under its best, there's potential in Silent Hill as well.RageQuitter69

Yeah I agree with you.

Most of the stuff people want to see turned into film has already been done better. Hitman has like no character nor does he offer anything unique in film. Game terms it's great, but his translation to screen means we don't get the gameplay of Hitman so it loses whats special about it.

Look at what drink said though. If we take just the setting and the context of the world but not the actual stories and characters it could work

[QUOTE="jg4xchamp"][QUOTE="Liquid_"]

All preference at this point. Transformers is on the same level as hot wheels, so whatever floats your boat

Well...Uncharted, Metal gear Solid , God Of War and Assassins Creed are already in development.

I think Assassins Creed, God Of War and Uncharted are not going to bring a headache for the writers and directors since they all have basic structure and lore behind them, only MGS gonna kill most teams cuz the story is huge, complicated, over the top, convulted for most and difficult to wrap it in a movie.

I thinnk UC is going to suck as a film. It's main attraction was bringing a movie experience to games. If it's an ACTUAL FILM the comparisions to other films wouldn't be good.

I dont have high expectations for Uncharted for the same reasons but we don't know, everything could happen, the idea is so hollywood friendly it can't possibly fail and if someone like Peter Jackson doing it, the movie would be excellent, something in the same level of King Kong chase scenes/action and as big as production would be incredible.

something like the first Mummy movies, Pirates, Tomb Raider...etc would be so much fun too.

EDIT: What Im really worried about is the other three, they are so dear to me I don't want to see anything less than spectacular about them.

^^ oh plz noo, he's amazing but he can't possibly be drake, if he really wants, he should start working out 4 hours a day, uncharted needs a monkey.

Sad part is, most people think that transformers is part of the good industry

Script =/= quality

What a thrilling response

If Nathan Fillion is in the Uncharted movie. I would watch no matter how sh1tty. jg4xchamp

If he works out and does some serious Christian Bale shiet then sure.

A Legend of Zelda movie would be cool, with Robin Williams as a sage or spirit guide, but I think disney would have to do it in order for it to be good, or Peter Jackson.

For sure. There isn't a better actor for Drake. Heck, he even sounds like him sometimes

The Witcher 2. I know that there's already witcher movies/tv shows, but still...ShadowsDemon

The choice system of the Witcher games would be rather difficult to put into a movie. I think what could work as a movie maybe could be a linerally structured game with a good story of course or a setting and context that we could use for an adaption of the game. Problem is though I don't really know a good game that can do that for a movie.

none they get ruined half the time only good movie was super mario bros ,

and mortal kombat ,

others have came out-re tombraider and just suck

Quite you, your opinions don't matter here.

Only numbers and fanboys.

Dues Ex HR would be perfect.

Why hasn't anyone said thief?

[QUOTE="ShadowsDemon"]^^ It wasn't a bad movie, though. Slow, but not bad.FrozenLiquid

And call me crazy, but didn't ILM do Avatar?

None, because I'm qorried that the movie would suck since movies based on games tend to suck.

[QUOTE="FrozenLiquid"][QUOTE="ShadowsDemon"]^^ It wasn't a bad movie, though. Slow, but not bad.DarkLink77

And call me crazy, but didn't ILM do Avatar?

Coz The Lovely Bones was originally going to be a "small" movie, heavily drama based, and not that far-fetched in terms of visual effects. After three LotR films, and King Kong, Peter Jackson said he just wanted to go back to smaller movies. However, when Weta signed onto become lead visual development studio on Avatar, Jackson, being the visual effects fanboy he is, thought he'd like some of dat new tech himself. Cue major fantasy filled Heaven/Limbo scenes and a rather unnecessary CGI'd death in the final moments on the movie.

ILM did help out on Avatar towards the end. There's usually several visual effects studios that help out on major films.

None, because I'm qorried that the movie would suck since movies based on games tend to suck.

Worst case scenario: The movie sucks

You're wrong it's Weta.

We live in NZ. They like to beat our heads with every single achievement all the time haha.

[QUOTE="DarkLink77"]

[QUOTE="FrozenLiquid"] Sorry, it was terrible. Maybe it's to do with the actual novel's own insipidity, but Jackson's script and movie just made it even worse. Rumor has it that he got jealous of the CGI that Weta was doing for Avatar, and his once small budget feature film grew into a special effects jerk off.OB-47

[QUOTE="DarkLink77"] That doesn't make sense. Why would he be jealous of a studio he's collaborated with so many times?

They always leave out the details that are unfavourable.

Seriously, some of the sh!t that makes it onto the news is fvcking hilarious.

None. Games have awful stories.

goblaa

Agreed video game movies suck, the best one I saw recently was PoP and that was just a decent movie.

Forward Unto Dawn makes me want a proper Halo movie (without Master Chief, though that may be an impossibility.)

[QUOTE="soulitane"] It's a shame because he'd be great in that role, I'd actually watch it if he's in it.jg4xchamp

I know dis mayn I know dis.

I loved Gattacca. In Time was a neat concept I think but it had too many flaws to be great.

Also so many people forget a Kiwi made Casino Royale

Also I lost it at "Look at the moons"^

You know what you guys don't make? Good TV. Gotta get on that B. Gotta get on that. jg4xchamp

This is so fvcking true. I swear they play Shortland Street to prisoners in Iraq or something. It's so painfully bad.
