Best movies based on a video game?

**evildick** · 02-28-2008, 03:44 AM

Can't think of any that were good. Closest would have to be the original Resident Evil, which I kinda liked.

Silent Hill was actually pretty twisted so I sorta enjoyed that as well.

They all go downhill from there.

Doom - but it was shit.

**teg0** · 02-28-2008, 05:01 AM

Mortal Kombat wasn't too bad.

Yes, I must admit I liked that alot.

Hitman turned out to be ok, Timothy Olyphant was ok but a bit miscast. Every time he spoke I couldn't get Seth Bullock out of my head

Hello guys....Tomb Raider was probably the best. Angelina Jolie...Can't go wrong

**skrog** · 02-28-2008, 05:54 AM

Silent Hill

tomb raider & resident evil

**AssPirate** · 02-28-2008, 07:31 AM

Yeah Tomb Raider was cool, also Mario, I don't know if that's the movie or the series I just saw back then.

Haha oh god, that movie was so horrible. I mean holy christ I can't believe they actually released it in that state.

I'm going to say Silent Hill, since the games can be pretty goddamed creepy if you play in the dark and you're alone (story of my life). The movie definitely had its "OH GOD OH GOD NO SHE DIDNT... OH SHIT SHE DID" moments

**SykkBoy** · 02-28-2008, 08:34 AM

Silent Hill

**CaptainHowdy** · 02-28-2008, 09:16 AM

Hmm... I'll say none but let's hold for the Halo movie??

Tomb Raider.

**CarlosTheGaucho** · 02-28-2008, 09:38 AM

I would agree with the Silent hill, although the main character was just about as surreal as in the game, it was a well taken movie.

I also kind of liked the Resident Evil and always wished that there was the Duke Nukem filmed.

Yet with Arnold getting old and into politics the only actor capable of taking this character to the silver screen that comes to my mind is Dolph Lundgren.

Fallout would be another great but very expensive movie - the game and its story is a piece of art.

**Scott McD** · 02-28-2008, 10:41 AM

I haven't seen Silent Hill yet. So i would have to say Resident Evil.

I also thought the 1st Mortal Kombat movie was ok. Had some pretty hot chicks in it anyway !!

**CDSmith** · 02-28-2008, 11:20 AM

No one's mentioned Alien vs Predator yet... what's up with that? It's one of the few multiplayer games I've ever played, and was a pretty good movie all things considered.

I've always wanted to see a Max Payne movie.

**The Sultan Of Smut** · 02-28-2008, 12:32 PM

Resident Evil and Doom!

**Voodoo** · 02-28-2008, 12:35 PM

**SteveVVS** · 02-28-2008, 12:43 PM

Resident Evil is the best IMO. Hitman was ok, i enjoyed it , just expected more..

**KILL_FRENZY** · 02-28-2008, 01:17 PM

resident evil was great from my point of view

**picaso** · 02-28-2008, 01:24 PM

Doom and MK

**Angry Jew Cat - Banned for Life** · 02-28-2008, 01:25 PM

Resident Evil, & of course the first Mortal Kombat!

**kurtov** · 02-28-2008, 01:25 PM

Alien vs Predator wasn't based on a game, though.

Damn, you're right. A Fallout movie could be awesome, if they kept the atmosphere, humor, sex and violence intact.

**Birdman33** · 02-28-2008, 01:38 PM

They should make a zelda movie staring orlando bloom I think it would be great =)

The game or the movie? I thought both were okay. I've actually heard several people say in the past that they really liked the movie.

**tony286** · 02-28-2008, 02:18 PM

I cant wait til they make Pong the movie. lol

Yeah, it's more like the game was based on the movies, Alien and Predator.

But the movie "Alien vs Predator" was a game before it became a movie, so in that sense we're both right.

It was two movies that became a game and then another movie.

Actually, it was a comic book before it was a game. Yep, I know how much of a geek I am for knowing that

**Cypherpunk** · 02-28-2008, 02:22 PM

Redident evil + tomd raider (now someone needs to get those two tegether for some serious action)

I liked the nurses in Silent Hill, inspired me to shoot some horror stuff soon...

Yeah, that's right. I've been pretty much out of the loop on comic books since probably the early 80's
(after The Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers) :D

Don't forget Wing Commander,

**Bojangles** · 02-28-2008, 02:45 PM

I would probably have to go with the original Resident Evil.
