Video Games That Might Make Good Movies

Recommended Posts

Depending on who plays Master Chief, that could be awesome.

The problem is, who to play him? In the books Master Chief is about 6'6" (due to the biological enhancements) and ripped. The Rock would fit physically, but he doesn't really fit MCs strong silent type.

Well, they could get a big guy to play the body, and redub the voice...ala Darth Vader.

Or just cast Vin Diesel.

That'd be as bad as Angie Jolie as Samus.

By next August only one will be back

Yeah...Tice.

Took the words right outta my mouth.

Not quite, since Diesel hasn't played any other video game character.

A movie based on Final Fantasy VII would rock the fucking house.

 

I wouldn't mind seeing a Metal Gear Solid movie either but I'm sure they'd fuck it up.

Dolph Lundgren could probably play the Master Chief.

Yeah I actually thought of him but he's a bit old now (47). Granted he doesn't LOOK that old, so he may be able to pull it off.

 

If Vin Diesel was MC (not out of the realm of possibility, knowing Hollywood), I would weep for American cinema.

Silent Hill 2: Creepy as hell, and this one had a terrific, affecting story. Better than pretty much any horror movie I can remember seeing in terms of emotion and atmosphere.

 

Suikoden II WOULD make a great miniseries. Great storyline that can be told in a very concise manner.

 

Advent Children is going to kick ass.

 

This may seem weird, but Parappa the rapper could conceivable make a good show or movie, if they were able to keep up the quality of humor and the raps themselves.

 

Devil may cry, maybe?

 

Monkey Island's a great idea. Grim Fandango is also worth considering.

Charlize Theron or Rebecca Romain Stamos would make good Samus's. They'd probably do it, too.

 

I'm surprised there's never been a feature length Super Mario cartoon.

 

At one time, wasn't there some talk of an Eternal Darkness movie?

-Soul Calibur (take more of what made Mortal Kombat one good insted of what made Mortal Kombat: Annihilation and Street Fighter bad)

The only question I would have, as with all multiple character fighting games, is which characters get which level of importance. Beyond Mitsurugi and Taki as the mains (as far as I can tell) I have little idea where the others would fit.

Funny, I always thought Xianghua, Kilik, and Maxi were the main trio.

 

Xianghua because she gets Soul Calibur, and the other two by association.

Yup, there ya go. Buncha good fighting scenes, big thing at the end with Nighmare, et cetera. And it's not like it'd be hard to set up the sequel or anything. Heh, they're such great characters... But I can't imagine who they'd have to get to play, like, Voldo. Some aged but hyperflexible S&M enthusiast... Hm.

For Voldo, they'd probably hire some no-name contortionist guy to play him.

 

Kinda like what they did with Darth Maul. And, IIRC, Sabertooth for X-Men The Movie.

I'm surprised that no one has mentioned Medal of Honor.

 

I honestly think that, given the right director and script, they could develop that game franchise into a movie of "Saving Private Ryan" quality.

I may be the only one but, I think Viewtiful Joe would make a great movie, what with Joe having to go into the movie world and all. Or at the very least it would make a good cartoon. In fact I think there is one in Japan.
