video games as movies


WTFauKorean

Recommended Posts

i recently saw king of fighters the movie (surprised maggie may worked on that flim) and i was so bad a tear litereally fell from my eyes... one thig is that kof is one of my favorite games of all time and i perfer it over street fighter anyday. (that movie sucked to) but they made the movie so horrendus that i wasted my life away and thought i could make something better with a $5 budget.

mortal combat series: the first movie ok for a game movie still bad though 2nd one was really really bad and the dialouge still haunts me
resident evil: it's getting there but s*** they have to many of them and there still not that great
silent hill: sucked period
mario bros: "we never f***ing speak of that luigi!" -mario
street fighter: why is wtf is that van damn claude? wait vega died why are we still fighting in the second movie? why is their a second movie?
doom: i guess matching with the game plot was okay but the action was s***

was there anything else?

and people were talking about how great the halo movie would've been it might of been a historical break through in first game movie not to suck but even if it did come out high chance that would suck to.

starcraft was also possibly going to be a movie the problem like halo the movie was massive budget

give me your thoughts on these movies and others i may have missed

Most movie you managed are actually hilarious to watch because of how bad they are.
House of the Dead on the other hand, is just painfull.

Also, movies based videogames only suck because they fall in the hands of retarted writers and directors who just want to make some quick cash.
Although TBH, I didn't found Silent Hill to be THAT bad, since it still manages to have the heart of the game series, while the other movies just take the names of the videogame characters and just paste it on a character that isn't even remotly in place to begin with. Don't get me wrong, the script wasn't really written that good, but atleast it tries to be like the games.

Did someone say Uwe Boll? No? Then he should be. A number of the worst video game movies are his. Now he's working on a third BloodyRayne movie >:| (as well as a movie that's a parody of the aformentioned BloodyRayne movie, except the main protagonist is now very fat. o_O Why exactly is he parodying his own movie, now?)

Disney endorsed it not made it. There's a difference but people don't put it on the posters, which they should :V.

Also the Prince of Persia and Silent Hill movie are good if you make pretend it's not based Prince of Persia and Silent Hill. If it had any other name it wouldn't have been a good movie(and Pyramid Head is un-needed).

Of course there are huge potential for good video game movies(and there probably have been) It's just they don't get in hands of good producers. (Same with anime to movies, and movies to games.) Thought I can't wait for the Battle Angel movie.

you have a good point without the comparison of game to movie it might have been enjoyable

A-yup. There's two so far, with a third in the works. As well a a parody of the third movie. >_> The first 2 sucked, the third will probably suck, and the parody will probably suck.

If Video Games have a movie that is about it, like Silent Hill, Resident Evil or any other, they are awesome. THE VIDEO GAMES.
The movies really suck. They don't follow the true story, invent new characters and have not enough information.
Its nice to watch some of them, but generally they are awful.
