okay. girl sounds too much like arwen, and i would have preferred staying closer to the games setting, all in one giant palace complex, but they gave him the costume from the sequel, so they’re taking liberties. and they obviously actually played the game, so points to them for that. that’s what most game adaptations get wrong.
i like ridiculous spectacle, i like jake gyllenhaal, i loved the first two mummies and all three pirates movies. will this be good? probably not. will i be there opening weekend? oh hell yes.
I’ll throw Hitman into the mix of good video game movies, even it did take footage directly from Dark Angel. This might have more to me being a big fan of Timothy Olyphant and not knowing he was in it until the last moment.
Dead or Alive gets points for staying as awful as its franchise is.
Final Fantasy is also enjoyable, and Silent Hill had its moments.
Double Dragon, Postal, BloodRayne and In the Name of the King all get the stamp of awful.
For Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within, the theatrical movie was stunning visually, but was a pretty stupid film otherwise. (Says the guy who owns the DVD)
mortal kombat. resident evil. as long as paul w.s. anderson is directing, video game movies are awesome.
streetfighter killed raul julia. never forget!
i really like the mario movie, but i’m not going to pretend it’s any good. i just like the cast and the ridiculousness of it.
i’d like to see a lotr-esque zelda movie, and metroid ought to translate pretty well if they can get a good crew.

I had completely forgotten about Silent Hill.
