VIDEOGAMES you want to see turned into MOVIES - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

Mr.Deflok · 08-19-2003, 02:12 AM

Ok, so we all know that spells the reciepe for disaster (Resident Evil, Tomb Raider) but say they got it right, which games would you like to see movie-rised?

Personally I'd love to see a Metal Gear Solid (about SNAKE not some pussy-assed bitch called Raiden) film. Of course you'd need a talented director for a project like this, I'd have to go for either Ridley Scott or David Fincher, both are capable of producing an excellent Metal Gear with a hell of a lot of style.

Another game which would be fantasic is Silent Hill, only problem is that getting a good director for this would be very hard, horror is a hard genre to tackle these days.

Anyway, send on your ideas!

p.s. honourable mentions Doom, Splinter Cell...

AntHackerX · 08-19-2003, 02:15 AM

I liked Resident Evil...

And, I'd rather they not make any more Game -> Movie films. Same as Move -> Game. They both usually suck...

LaZy · 08-19-2003, 02:24 AM

I liked resident evil too.

especially the ending, i think RE2 is gonna kick ass. anyway, i always thought that Doom would be a great movie if done right. Metal Gear is a good choice too. How about a Warcraft movie?

GoldenOuroboros · 08-19-2003, 02:45 AM

I had always wondered why you ended up where you did in RE2 the game.. The movie cleared that up for me.. hehe

mrquackers · 08-19-2003, 02:47 AM

Clive Barker's Undying.

That game scared the piss out of me - but they'd need to redo the ending.

telekinetic2 · 08-19-2003, 04:44 AM

Yay Metroid! I'd want someone cool and unknown to play Samus though.

johnnymysto · 08-19-2003, 04:51 AM

Warcraft would be a good one, and just in time what with LOTR and all.

Metroid would be awesome, if they had Ridley Scott as director.

FlorentinoAriza · 08-19-2003, 04:59 AM

i'd go for the classics : doom , quake2 , half life

and ... no kidding ... pac man
there's a great movie hidden in there somewhere

Order_of_Monkey · 08-19-2003, 06:10 AM

I dont see how someone could make a movie out of Quake

FlorentinoAriza · 08-19-2003, 06:25 AM

it has a linear story, not ?
it would be more action than story oriented i suppose

Tarantino would call it : a "people on a quest"-movie
multipllayer quake would be more difficult because of lack of story
but then again they could give it a "salute of the jugger" twist.
i think it could be done.

IckUber · 08-19-2003, 08:22 AM

You guys know that they are making a metroid movie dont you? I hope it doesnt suck, but i dont have much faith, its directed by whomever directed "Final Destination 2" heh. OH well. It has potential

Czernobog · 08-19-2003, 08:37 AM

I think they may already be doing this, but a Devil May Cry movie (done well) would be kick-ass. What else.....hmmm.... I like the idea of a warcraft movie..... maybe do starcraft to boot

.

Beltruckus · 08-19-2003, 08:49 AM

Metal Gear Solid.

mute76 · 08-19-2003, 08:55 AM

Oh god...no more games to movies please. Every time this happens it's just a mess.

Junchbailey · 08-19-2003, 08:58 AM

Just think about Super Mario Bros, Street Fighter, and Double Dragon and you will never want another game made into a movie again.

Stare At The Sun · 08-19-2003, 09:15 AM

Devil may cry- very cool main char, and would be very fun to watch
Metriod- ^^ ditto
Warcraft- we need more quality dark ages movies
Max Payne- This would be one gritty,violent and damn good movie
Halo- I always said it would be a damn good sci fi movie in itself
Rainbow 6- Great book, great games, the movie would have to be good!
Last but not least GIVE ME AVP!!!

nostalgic1 · 08-19-2003, 09:23 AM

i guess i'm the only one that liked both tomb raider and resident evil?

i admit, they weren't the most well done movies... but they were decent...

i think devil may cry would make a good one...

i really wish that they would make a movie about one of the actual final fantasy games... not just a movie called final fantasy that has nothing to do with the games...

Stare At The Sun · 08-19-2003, 10:16 AM

^^ I personally liked the Final Fantasy movie, however, it would be cool if it was more involved in the games.

doctorphibes · 08-19-2003, 10:35 AM

CUSTER'S REVENGE

God of Thunder · 08-19-2003, 10:41 AM

Leisure Suit Larry!!!

Come one, you know you played it!!!

viveleroi0 · 08-19-2003, 11:20 AM

Max Payne would be a good film for the guy who did Narc/ and maybe Michael Bay or Joel Schumacher

Hanabal · 08-19-2003, 01:47 PM

well there already is an avp movie,
and doom is well on its way, and i heard somewhere they were making a pac man movie as well(wtf)

so hmmm id say civilization would be interesting

I was about to call shenanigans on this one, but then I looked it up, and OH CRAP, they actually are making Aliens v. Predator. And Paul W.S. Anderson (of Resident Evil and Mortal Kombat fame!) is attached to direct. And he has said that he's aiming for a PG-13 rating.

Is anyone actually planning on going to see that suckfest?

I'll go see it...

Resident Evil & Mortal Kombat weren't all too bad...Sure MK:A was HORRIBLE, but the original was at least decent. He also did Event Horizon, which was a very freaky movie...

djtestudo · 08-19-2003, 02:40 PM

Come on...how has no one yet mentioned GTA? That could go both ways as a fantastic movie or a terrible, SMB-esque shit pile.

Actually now that I think about it, it would be just another mob movie, huh?

virus · 08-19-2003, 02:52 PM

that matrix game was fun, they should make that into a movie.

TerraFORM · 08-19-2003, 03:09 PM

Half-life, Quake2-3

Stare At The Sun · 08-19-2003, 03:21 PM

avp + pg13 = piece of shit. Man, i hate when they make movies less violent and such to appeal to more people. bastards.

Hanabal · 08-19-2003, 04:45 PM

That would be interesting,

Seeing as all good movies turn into crap games
and the matrix game is shit, it will probably be a cool movie

But seriously, whos going to make a movie about the matrix, thats a wierd idea that 99.9999% of the population wont understand and then go around saying the movie was shit,

But id like to see that,

we can only dream

doctorphibes · 08-19-2003, 08:58 PM

Just to redefine my position, I don't necessarily think Paul W.S. Anderson is that bad of a director, but he is definitely "B"-list. Which worked for RE, honestly, and maybe Event Horizon, although it took a while for me to appreciate that one. My main beef, as UnlikedOne pointed out, is the PG-13 rating. Maybe there's been a good horror movie (or two?) with less than an R, but if I go see something like that, I want pointless violence, gore, nudity, violence, swearing, and gore. Maybe a little extra nudity here and there, too. Otherwise, eh.

collide · 08-19-2003, 11:06 PM

The Legend of Zelda! Truly an epic tale worthy of film.

cradeg · 08-20-2003, 01:45 AM

Sexy Vampire Bitch hunting Nazis and fighting occult stuff comes always great ... like the Indana Jones films

Haha, hopefully they'll have a skimpy lingerie scene like the infamous mod for the game.

fuzzix · 08-20-2003, 05:54 AM

- System Shock (that would make an AWESOME movie)

- Metal Gear Solid (yup I agree with y'all)

- Alone in the Dark games

Nikilidstrom · 08-20-2003, 07:05 AM

Well, its a pen & paper rpg, and it was made into a game for the SNES a long while ago, so I'm gonna throw it out there.

A Shadowrun movie would be tits. Ridley Scott (beause of his Blade Runner credentials), Wachowski Bros, or my personal favorite, John Woo would knock this movie outta the park. With so many novels already written in the Shadowrun universe, there has to be a great screenplay lying around somewhere just waiting to get the green light.

Pac-Man Fever
The only one that I would suggest has been stated ... Metal Gear: Solid.

theinfamous · 08-20-2003, 10:21 AM

another one for metal gear solid....i was thinking about how dope a movie it would be the whole time i was playing it.

YOU CAN NOT MAKE AN AvsP MOVIE AND HAVE IT BE PG-13 seriously worst idea I have ever heard EVER. Thats like making Freddy vs Jason pg13 f**king stupid.

DonnieBoy · 08-20-2003, 07:02 PM

I have heard that American McGee's Alice is being made into a movie, I think that this movie would rock. Christina Riccia as Alice maybe.

Also think Max Payne would be good.
