Giant monster arcade game? Nope, I don't remember that one.

Sounds like there's nothing there to build a story on. They'd be better off with Wizardry. "MAHALITO!"

I want Christopher Nolan to direct a Gauntlet movie.

/CHRISTIAN BALE NEEDS OSCAR BADLY!

I remember seeing this on TV already...

Maaaan I hope this bus you're driving us in is flame-retardant...

doglover: Alphax: Giant monster arcade game? Nope, I don't remember that one.

Well, you officially fail at video games.

Rampage is SEMINAL. It's one of the first and and best video games where the character is the bad bad guy.

It's the perfect blend of co-op and deathmatch as well. Nice balanced mayhem.

Heh...you said "seminal."

/why yes, I'm about 12.

For co-op out about the same time I really liked Xenophobia. Once you got used to the 3 way split screen it was farking cool.

Where's my Joust movie?

Whar my Sinistar movie?!?!

Run Coward!

Your childhood must have sucked.

This movie was fun, back when it was called King Kong Vs. Godzilla.

So a movie based on a game that was based on a series of movies. Oh, and it's basically been done already, anyway:

Well before that I say we create a movie based on Time Crisis or Smash Tv. I also want a movie based on Megaman X.

Wow, just....wow. You are a terrible, horrible, funny person

Gergesa: Smash Tv


Been done - Running Man

Hm. On the one hand I want to be excited for this because I don't see how they can mess it up.

On the other hand I can see exactly how they're going to mess it up.

The problem is the monsters aren't relatable, and 90 minutes of them trashing buildings doesn't make a good story. So instead the stars of the movie will be the humans trying to stop the monsters, making the monsters an afterthought.

Unless they go the alternate route and make George, Lizzie and Ralph into wise-cracking CGI hucksters. I'm not sure which would be worse.

spidermann: Elevator Action!

Bionic Commando!Original or that new game, where he has the massive arm?

Gun.Smoke!
Rush'n'Attack!

Final Fight!WITHOUT the spaceships this time, please.

Altered Beast! Good lord, did I love that game...it hated me, though.

Golden Axe!!Problem is, it's got too generic of a fantasy story. The hard part is distinguishing it from, oh...Beastmaster.

Where's my screenwriting checks? I can pump each of those out in a few hours each, and half of them would be directed by Michael Bay.

texdent: Bubble Bobble: The Movie!

Though seriously, Ghosts 'n' Goblins might not make that bad of a movie.

Heh...I can see the scene where he's running around in just his underwear now...

Wait, that sounds wrong...

If one person says "Consider yourself a hero" at the end, I'd agree with you.

I dunno, I would have gone with either Qix, or Burger Time.

/We're closed now!

texdent: But seriously seriously, we need a Legend of Zelda movie.

Which game? Way I see it, you have a few options:

Ocarina of Time: It's one of the most popular Zelda games, and has a nicely coherent story. Of course, 2/3s of the movie will take place in the Water Temple, so that might get dull.

Link to the Past: Again, wildly popular, but, from what I remember, not much of a story. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

Skyward Sword: Not out yet, but it seems to have an "origin story" vibe to the plot, from things I've read.

I miss the 80's arcades

Make this into a movie, maybe it will kill the stupid 3d craze once and for all.

Look, all I really want to see is a movie version of this:

They did a Double Dragon movie, so why not?

Get the Valve guys to write a movie in the Black Mesa/Aperture Science universe. Portal 2 is one of the few games where I enjoyed the wit, characters and plot.

cefm: They did a Double Dragon movie, so why not?

Shyeah, right. Next you'll tell me that Marc Dacascos and Scott Wolf were the Brothers, and Alyssa Milano was Marian. And I bet you'll even try to get me to believe that Robert Patrick, the T-1000, for god's sake, was the bad guy!

Two word

Cadillacs

Dinosaurs

Make it happen.
