Upcoming Movies Based on Games
Navneet Prakash, Feb 13, 2007 1600 hrs IST
Guess game makers haven't had enough of success with games now that they are foraying into movie-making, of course, based on games.
This isn't a new topic; a whole bunch of really sad (read bad) films have already been made on popular games. Some disasters like BloodRayne, Doom, and Double Dragon have already been made and forgotten about, but I see some really good works in the process. Some really good film makers are going in to Game-to-Movie business, names like Zack Synder( Dawn of the Dead, 300), Jerry Bruckheimer (Remember the Titans, Black Hawk Down, Pirates of the Caribbean, Top Gun, the man's a genius), and Peter Jackson (The best film ever, same once more, and a third time.) But what games are they working on? Well, let s find out.
Metal Gear Solid
In my opinion, it is the best game franchise in the history of gaming, with the most versatile characters, brilliant set-ups, movie-like production values and a great, brilliant, captivating storyline.
MGS was destined to make it big with a movie and with Hideo Kojima, the Legend and a big bank like Sony pictures; MGS the movie is going to rule movies.
Warcraft
Who loves Warcraft? More than 8 million people and growing each day. So what s the most logical move for a product that already has an audience of 8 million? Make a movie based on the same, took me around 10 seconds to figure that out.
With the strong production values of Legendary pictures and a list of characters that can give LOTR( If you don't know what that means, you are a Bum) a complex, we can look forward to a major hit, crossing and grossing all figures known to cinema.

though each of these games are legendary i feel Rainbow 6 has got the most successful script n storyline for a "hollywood block buster". the rest of them are just a bit too complex for the ummm lets say the general (meaning the dumb and moronic) audience ;)

If POP is being made, I want it to closely follow the Trilogy. If not, I would like a single movie to be made out of SANDS OF TIME because the ending (and of course the STOLEN KISS) is still in my eyes..!!!

Van diesel has been casted already in the yet to begin HITMAN film. Good choice, but van must loose some weight. One of my picks was keanu reeves. Both the stars match the hitman of game series. Lets wait for the action....

i think the hitman movie is going to be the best one.the missions are simply awesome and the ending of hitman 4 can sure give any hollywood srceenplay writer a run for his money.another great movie is going to be POP.there is no better storyline in the video game market than this one.the story of this game(all three games combined) and the twists and turns and the climaxes are simply great.the POP movie can even look forward for some oscars
