Videogame based movies

[fruckert]

Agreed

[Archem]

[...]Metroid [...] Prime [...] sucked

*tightening grip around neck* What was that? I couldn't hear you ever the sound of you choking to death.

I said the story sucked
The game kicked ***, it's one of my all time favs

[Archem]

Haha... Yeah, pardon my anger-inducing skimming skills.

However, I was fine with the story. It wasn't all that much different from the rest of the series.

Metroid's story is rad.

But if they decide to make a movie(god forbid) they better make it like advent child. Animated, FMV style. Real actors would ruin it. Good luck adding a samus vs ridley without it looking crap.

And if they do, they better give her a sidekick who speaks for her, samus talking= no no.

We all saw what happened when Link spoke(I'm looking at you Zelda the cartoon and CDI).

How was the lord of the rings plot simple? As well as telling the story it fleshed out an entire world and detailed history. There was so much going on that they had to cut out tons of it for the films and only concentrate on the main points 0_o

Oh, don't remind me.

You know, I'm suddenly reminded of that false live-action Evangelion trailer they made. A friend of mine fell for it, hard. He still thinks it's gonna come out!

Oh, boy! I'm so hungry, I could eat a Pizza (that I'm cooking right now).

Excuuuuuuuuuuuse me for a moment, guys....^_^

Doesn't she actually speak sometime in Metroid Fusion? Sure, it's texts, but it's still speaking. She also speak in Super Metroid and Metroid: Zero Mission, but only like at start and such.

I thought Samus spoke in the prologue of Super Metroid.  I could be mistaken, though...it's been forever since I've played it.
I'd still like to watch Double Dragon, though.  Some guy who has the audacity to diss Mortal Kombat is clearly talking out of his ***.

[ZeroKirbyX]

Yeah, she talks in the form of report logs and inner monologues, she never has dialogue.

[Archem]

Well, we have a few grunts and screams to go by, and a live-action movie would blow, so if they did a quality CGI movie using the same voice actress they've used in the past (or one of them, since I'm not sure if there's been more than one), and they had a plot that wasn't "Oh no! Mother Brain again somehow!", or an adaption of one of the games (i.e. something new and able to be condensed into a two hour film), then all would be awesome.

Not terrible puns or Samus using the action movie lines like "Chill out" after Ice Beaming someone. DOn't recall what those are called, but they must be forbidden.

1st time spoken here!

I myself, really do not like Video game based movies if I try to base them of of the game itself.

Take FF Spirits within, trying to call THAT FF fails, but the movie itself was good

Resident Evil series was good though I wish they worked better on Extinction

Silent hill was Amazing, but it lefty flipped the story line, making the mom look for the daughter, not her father.

Funny thing is, people wanted a movie that was based on an exisiting Final Fantasy game. Did it not cross their minds that Final Fantasy created a new story for every game that game before the movie? Bad Final Fantasy fans, bad. You deserve a stick being smacked on your head.

Not true.  In Metroid Fusion, she talks to the computer, Adam.  I know, for I have defeated that game prior to this thread.
