Renegade 0 Report post Posted October 25, 2003 Most of the ones I can think of would turn out to be anime since its the best way to do it with videogames usually. - Fatal Fury: There is already a Fatal fury anime out, but its quite old and frankly not that accurate. The story would be exactly the same as the original game, with Jeff Bogard suffering a brutal vile death at the hands of Geese Howard and Terry vowing vengence. No love intrest or anything like the anime but an introduction OVA if you will to show all the current characters. It could also tie into a Kof anime with each series running alongside each other. With proper animation and consistency it would be a real winner. Also making a motion picture of Mark of the wolves, which is given introduction by a OVA set after the Real bout tournament, showing just how Terry and Rock build the father-son relationship. - Devil may cry: Be it anime or film, it would make money. Just pop in enough action sequences and people would lap it up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
{''({o..o})''} 0 Report post Posted October 25, 2003 (edited) Chakan: An ongoing anime similar in style to Vampire Hunter D could really rock. Since it was based on a comic they probably have enough stories set up for a while. Edited October 25, 2003 by frozenblockofpiss Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Sakura Report post Posted October 26, 2003 Final Fantasy VIII. I would split it up into 3 movies. Have the first movie be the beginning and end with the assassination attempt on Edea. Have the second be the Balamb vs. Galbadia stuff and end with Edea's defeat. Have the third and final part be all the Esthar stuff and the final battle. Best. movie. ever.

It'd have enough action and giant robots to make all the rabid action fans go crazy and enough story and thought provocation to keep the people that look for a smart movie happy.....of course it'd have to be like 5 hours long.

Good call. Slient Hill would be a good choice. Hopefully it isn't bombed. And Disgaea would be just the TUSNAMI BOMB (Disgaea joke)~! Personally, I would LOVE to finally get to see that absolutely LOVE to finally see the Spoiler (Highlight to Read): embaressing picture of Laharl and of course the Spoiler (Highlight to Read): refence to tentacle porn (which I don't think I've hit yet, I'm still trying to get my Nekonata, heheh, kittigal) , can't forget Spoiler (Highlight to Read): Laharl's laugh would be the corniest thing ever to see it played out in live action , and of course I'd LOVE to see Spoiler (Highlight to Read): Laharl talking the smack with Mid-Boss (yes, there is a character named Mid-Boss) and I must say that all of that, combined with everything else would make a hell of a great anime comedy. I couldn't see it being a movie because a lot of the good stuff would be cut from the game and that would suck. Did I mention I love this game? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LivingLegendGaryColeman 0 Report post Posted October 26, 2003 Pacman I think there would be a demand for a live action Pac Man. And not a mixed Live Action- Animated like Space Jam or anything, just straight up live action. If I could go with a game that hasn't been made yet, I could see games like Socom would make bank, but something personally, I'm not sure. Most games I play usually tend to be based off stuff (i.e. movies already made or something that wouldn't be a movie) or sports games. Kingdom Hearts movie could be interesting, but doubtful.

But it would be awesome to have a FF a AOF and a Kyo anime series which all interlink with each other in the form of Kof OVAs As long as it isn't made by any of the people who brought us the Samurai Shodown and Fatal Fury OVAs. Well, the Fatal Fury one I didn't like was the one with the armor of Mars and the annoying jailbait chick that was trying to hook up with Terry. That was "eh" at best. The Samurai Shodown one was terrible. Unmemorable, lame characters (at least how they were portrayed here) that didn't seem to act like they should (Joe Higashi as Haohmaru?) in a dull plot. Oh...and people bleed gallons of milk. Umm....Evangelion has a totally different story than Xenogears. Totally different. Same themes, they share gratuitious religious references/imagery, both have their mind-fuck moments. I'm saying if they made a Xenogears OVA it would be critically ripped apart since it would come off as a blatant Evangelion clone. And yes Andrew...we know you hate Xenogears.

I haven't seen the movie but what is wrong with Haoh being protrayed like Joe? Assuming you mean as a goofy egomaniac. That is what Haohmaru is like in the games... Yeah, except for the fact that he wasn't at all funny when he was supposed to be, and when he was supposed to be serious he was boring. Which is fine if he was just one of the six heroes resurrected 100 years after their deaths to stop Amakusa, BUT... It makes no bones about Haoh being the hero. THE hero. The rest are just filler, just helpless boobs along for the ride. The fate of the world rests on that jackass' shoulders, and he gets ALL of the character development, and 85%+ of screen time. They just rush to set up the main plot, so the other 5 basically show up to find him, no explanation of how they got together/remembered their past lives (or why they have the same names and dress the same), no development for any of them, no explanation of what got them together originally. Most unforgivably, the fights suck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Sakura Report post Posted October 27, 2003 It can't be worse than the Tekken anime, which is just awful. They barely even show characters like Yoshimitsu and Paul. Roger and Alex are in the movie more than like King! Plus they try to make Kazuya out to be this sympathetic misunderstood loner anti-hero, which is not how he is portrayed in the games. In the games Kazuya is just an evil, cold hearted bastard who would do anything to get power and revenge. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DrVenkman PhD 0 Report post Posted October 28, 2003 I always thought Zelda could work if it weren't played up for laughs like the animated series, either as an anime or a movie very much like the LOTR films. Of course, when I say Zelda, I refer to The Legend of Zelda, Link's Adventure, or (especially) A Link to the Past. Don't get me wrong, I think Wind Waker is an awesome game and all, but it's not what I want to see a movie made about. Likewise, I don't even like Link's Adventure very much as a game, but storywise it's a great followup to the first game. BMX XXX The Movie might be something worth making as well.

Guest Nacho Nixon Report post Posted October 28, 2003 River City Ransom, as violent meta-comedy. All they'd have to do is play it up as a straight-faced "Hollywood" take on Battle Royale, and maybe set it in the 1950s, and it would be all surreal and hilarious. If the script was too deliberately clever for its own good (although someone has to yell "BARF!" at some point), then it would suck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
