Games you would like to see as movies.

Postby Boll_KG on Fri Dec 29, 2006 3:11 pm

hi there,

Im new here and I wanted to know what people thought about games being turned into films.

I read the other posts about Uwe Boll and I can tell you people dont like him.

I would like to know what other games you would like to see as films and who would you get to direct.

I see it is open now. Good man.

I personally would like to work on Half life, the script practically writes itself and it would make a great production.

Or would people like to see a Hitman movie?

Hitman is cool.

Welcome, Boll, we are searching through the threads to see if there is any other similar thread, but so far, it should be OK. Perhaps u, I mean somebody could make one of Jet Set Willy, that would rock my world.

Yeah man. Jet Set Willy would be fantastic.

Cast Jackie Chan in the lead role.

That would be great.

Games I like most are heavy on the story side so they would probably suffer from the same problems like adaptions of popular books.

But they left out my favourite part, whine, whine, bitch bitch...

Come to think of it Broken Sword could be mde into a good one I think

Rampage! Big old CGI graphics, loads of damage and a negligable story. Thats the way to do it! All it is is us against them.

So simple...so perfect....How about them apples?

Rampage sounds like fun.

Halo is already taken by studios and will become a film. Last I heard was that Peter Jackson was connected with it then it went quiet.

There are some good ideas up there, I like those.

So now im confused and all.....or are you? If you confused me, then your not confused but perhaps everyone is confused like me. If your confused, then im not confused, only you. Which one of us is confused? Anyway, monsters would be more fun on paper. On film, its AVP=monsters= :cry: . Im just so lost and confused and dazed and eccentric....yet peaceful.

Final Fantasy: Advent Children was all right. Fantastic looking graphics and camera moves. I admit the story is a little weak, but I did really buy it for that.

What about Oblivion? Thats a good game and it would make an excellent film. Epic one too, like 10 commandments or something.

Lots of fighting, great story and fantastic scenes.
