video game movies?

i've heard of a couple movies that are thought up from games that are supposed to be coming out, here's the list that i remeber fromt he magazine-
Crazy taxi movi-yeah i know i dont see how there can be a story, but it might be good.
Grand Theft Auto-not sure what its going to be like 'Vice City' or something, but it can be very cool.
Resident evil 2-not sure of real title, but i think everyone already know about it.

there are some others but i had a brain fart and cant think of them, list any that you know of that may be coming,and yur coments aboot them.

Re: video game movies?

In the 'Crazy Taxi' movie the main character's mission is to reach his destination before I slip into a coma and fall out of my theater seat.

GTA sounds interesting, and RE2 is probably good for a little gore.

Re: video game movies?

Games to movies usually suck, I don't know how the crazy taxi thing would go but eh' i'd see it if it was a t.v. movie.

RE:2 is called Resident Evil Apocalypse, and its based on the story of RE:3 Nemesis. They already have a teaser for it.

Re: video game movies?

I haven't seen one video-game to movie conversion that has satisfied me yet. Maybe because the most popular games have great stories and you had the most fun with them, then when a movie comes out, it's mediocre at best and is a total disappointment in terms of story line and innovation, compared to its video-game counter-part. That and a video-game has more immersion, since you have interaction

Re: video game movies?

Oh damn, I remember seeing a short movie awhile ago about real life GTA. I think it was on SNL, but I can't remember

Nobody liked Street Fighter with Jean Claude Van Damme?

How about Super Mario Bros. with John Liguizamo?

Mortal Kombat anyone?

Haha

Re: video game movies?

o also supposedly there is going to be a true crime movie too, if so i would probably come out about the same time as the gta one, because movies that are alike, seem to come out at the same time, like currently we have a bunch of teen movies like mean girls,you got served, bring it on again(or something like that) and i think there is one more......

i thought reident evil nemisis was in a haunted house style area, like in a forest nowhere near a city and they had an underground lab under this manshion and they tested these things there, but the ttrailer for the 2nd movie looks like its going to be in the city, yeah i no i dont have a life.......

Re: video game movies?

Hollywood movie exec. brainstorming session:

Well, how about a movie based on 'Pong', or perhaps 'Burger Time'. No? 'Tetris' maybe...?

wouldn't a real life GTA just be like a mix of Scarface, EMpire, King of NY, Resevoir dogs and all those other gangster movies? i would think so considering the game itself is compiled from many aspects of these movies.

Reservoir Dogs is NOT a gangster movie. At all.

Re: video game movies?

Idk, Enemy has it right. These games already have thick plots and when the movies come out they cut them in half. Silent Hill would be good if they did it right...

of course all the comic geeks hate X-Men2...THAT'S NOT HOW PHOENIX CAME ABOUT!!!
