You see many movies that poorly attempt to create a game based upon themselves, especially from Disney. They are pretty much always garbage.

 

 

 

But have you ever thought of it from the other point of view? There are many great games with equally good stroylines that could be made into such great films. You guys ever thought about this?

 

 

 

I'd love them to make a series of Elder Scrolls films.

I think MGS4 would make a good movie.

 

 

 

Heck its already one pretty much.

Meh.

 

 

 

When a game hits the big screen, it usually does poorly, as if you make a movie into a game, it usually does poorly(except Goldeneye, that was good).

 

 

 

Movies and games just don't mix in my opinion.

You do know, that when it comes to movies and such, its a matter of opinion?

 

 

 

Anyway, the Resi films were decent imo.

 

 

 

I'd love them to make a series of Elder Scrolls films.

 

 

 

What gaming fanatic wouldn't...but I can pretty much guarantee that the movies would be horribly cheesy, with bad dialouge and FX. (Unless of course it was made by a director with a name :P)

 

 

 

That's just really now it works...people adapt things likes games and books into movies just to make a quick buck.

Lara Croft, hm.

 

Movie-based games usually suck, and the opposite would most likely be true.

 

Other than Lord of the Rings, books, movies and games should mainly stay separate.

I was about to say the Oblivion storyline is too short to make a movie out of, but then I realized while a 15 hour main quest in a game is short it could make a very long movie.

 

 

 

I'd be more interested in a F3 movie, but which ending would they give?

They could make different endings. Maybe. Actually I have no idea since I've never played the game.

Games seem hard to make into movies. Harder than books. I mean, they're already animated, and many of them are based on real events, or real things with a twist (How many people would pay to see a madden nfl movie, or a motorstorm one? :P). But they can be made. The Halo movie, thus far, actually looks like it might be pretty good. A Grand Theft Auto movie would probably be cool, but not based on any of the games.

 

 

 

I think movie studios creating videogames and game studios creating movies would be a cool deal. Because a lot of games could have movies made that only relate to them - for example, the Halo series had a [cabbage] load of books that sold pretty good (and were alright reads). Replace the word "books" with "feature presentations".

 

 

 

Then, movies -> games, just no, for even more reasons. Movies are even less able to be all crazy and [cabbage]. And a lot of the things they're based on are already games. Like, a Mirror's Edge movie would be kinda cool, because it's not realistic at all. Band of Brothers game? Oh, wait. Need for sp- oh.

I think Gears of War would make a good film, if they added some actual story.

Buff guys, aliens, and chainsaws. So cool it doesn't need a story, in fact the only way it could get cooler is if the guns had breasts and were on fire!....

I think the unholy marriage of Chainsaws and Guns would be enough.

You took the quote from the wrong review. =/

 

 

 

Beyond Good and Evil would be fun to watch.

One word: Doom. But I guess if they did it right, it could be good.

I like applying that quote to everything.

I always played L4D like a movie.You know,helpless girl goes to another helpless girl and,what do you know,instead of a lesbian scene,you get a bunch of other guys screaming curses at you for why you did that.And then I answer "Didn't you want a lesbian scene?"

i always found high school musical and harry potter to be the biggest piece of crap to enter the gaming market. imo, they should stick to movies so it doesn't get a bad reputation for creating poorly designed games.

Aren't they already doing this for gears of war?

That would be awesome if they did an Elder scrolls series. I'd camp infront of bestbuy just to buy it :D

 

I believe Kingdom Hearts series could become a good movie, also

If you could keep Uwe Boll out of the way, then games to movies aren't quite a bad idea.

 

That is only if there is a strong plot (Like Elder Scrolls), and a premise that doesn't need millions to be spent in special effects.

Only with the right devoted writer, director, and producer could this be done correctly. Make some guy only in it for the money WILL screw it all up before they even started filming.

I would pay big to see a Half life movie, but something in the pit of my gut tells me that it would not be as successful as it's game counterpart.

Eh, I reckon videogames and movies and most entertainment will start getting more intertwined - in a good way - by the time our generation gets into our thirties and so. We've been exposed to games and everything our whole lives, so we could actually understand it.

The good ending could be the theater version and the rest could be deleted scenes for the dvd version :D

Yeah, but who says that the Good Ending would be the best?

 

 

 

Honestly, they'd need to have a version for every ending, with enough changes between them in order to prevent us from feeling ripped off.

 

 

 

Ahwell, maybe when there comes the day that we can vote for things in movies while watching it.
