And how could you forget Street Fighter! (I still can't believe Raul Julia went out that way.

 

I don't know, yes the movie sucked as hard as possible, but I kind of liked him as Bison, he played the part so goofy it was actually pretty funny.

 

 

Although I will say one video game movie that might buck the trend and actually be good is the upcoming Silent Hill adaptation:

Mortal Kombat 1 = sorta sucked, but ok because I like cheesy scifi.

Mortal Kombat 2 = worst kinda suckage.

Mortal Kombat 3 = didnt know it existed, but I bet it still sucks majorly.

 

Mario Bros= lmao. Cute but utterly stupid, again, I liked it but only because it was so stupid.

 

Street Fighter = My cousing loved this movie, because hes had an obsession with Chun Li since he was like 13 or so. But I thought the whole movie was a bit laugh-fest. It bombed.

 

Resident Evil = it wins one internet for having Milla Jovovich and Michelle Rodriguez. But otherwise it was pretty dumb.

Resident Evil 2 = Never saw it, but it wins 1 internet by default for having Milla in it again. hehe

 

Doom = Ill be seeing it most likely because I like the Rock. hehe. And again, cheesy scifi = win. :)

 

Halo = unless it has an excellent story, good graphics, and some darn good acting, its going to be equal to, or worse than MK2 or Starship Troopers.

I'm willing to bet Peter Jacksons involvement is purely superficial, probably only in the credits because his NZ studio is where the stupid movie will be filmed. But clever businessmen in charge of marketing put his name up first because they knew it would gather the kind of attention it got.

 

And if you don't understand what I mean - just read this thread... "OMFG Peter Jackson is genious, is Peter Jackson, is in the credits, he made LOTR so Halo mov MUST gonna be da BLAST!"

Wing Commander = tore a whole in space-time because of its mind numbing suckiness.

And why would you bet that? Why wouldn't he get involved? Just curious.

Let's say it's, just a gut feeling of mine. Why, are you thinking about taking my bet?

 

If it will be anything else than superficial, I will stand corrected, but until further and more in-depth news...

 

You know, Arnold was executive producer on Terminator 3, what it meant in reality was that Arnold paid an extra mil, to film an extra 5 minutes of car-chase/car-crash and nothing else. A few years back, the actors agents were listed as executive producers, because they had invested their asset (the actor) into the movie. The executive producer title was very loosely defined, nowadays, there have been improvements on the definition of it, but is still largely loosely defined and could mean anything, from a lot of things to nothing at all.

 

EDIT/ADD

 

Quentin Tarantino executive produced From Dusk til Dawn 2 & 3. Did he have anything to do with those productions? "Very little" would be an understatement. Or an even better example: the same Tarantino is listed as Producer for "Iron Monkey" (which is a Hong Kong movie). QT had nothing to do with the production whatsoever, he just used his contacts to put up the (already old in HK) movie in north american theatres and voilá, suddenly he produced iron monkey.

 

...and my point was... oh yeah! It's unclear what executive producers actually do or what it means. It can mean they do a lot to nothing at all.

 

 

 

Involving Peter Jackson, there is this:

 

Director Peter Jackson and his screenwriter wife Fran Walsh will follow up this year's King Kong re-make with a screen adaptation of Alice Sebold's best-selling novel The Lovely Bones. American movie trade publication Daily Variety reports the Oscar-winners used their own money to buy the feature film rights to the grim tale from British production company Filmfour. The 2002 book is narrated from heaven by a 14-year-old girl who has been raped and murdered, as she follows the lives of those left behind to deal with the tragedy. Jackson and Walsh will begin adapting the screenplay with their partner Philippa Boyens next January, and will promote the project to studios when it is finished. Jackson says, "It's the best kind of fantasy in that it has a lot to say about the real world. You have an experience when you read the book that is unlike any other. I don't want the tone or the mood to be different or lost in the film."

I would imagine that Pete Jackson might take advantage of the opportunity to get involved, just because it makes him even MORE famous and popular, since he's already got such a strong backing of nerds, he could solidy his position as a figure of admiration, instead of tarnishing his reputation by allowing his name to be on something that sucks.

At the end of Halo 2 you you pretty much team up with the covenant to go and stop the flood. i think

Nope.

the arbiter finds out what the rings are all about and the prophets brutes and jackals and those bugs things betray the elites, grunts and hunters, who team up witht the humans to stop the prophet from activating the ring. Then a giant covenant fleet goes to earth with a forerunner ship to kick some human @$$. Then theres the horrible "Finishing this fight" dialogue and the game ends.
