Hyperglide Posted December 20, 2002 Share Posted December 20, 2002 Originally posted by Scotchy Half Life - Arguably the greatest game ever made, this is the one to develop into a movie.[/b[ You're joking right?? Half Life is a good game but "arguably one of the greatest??" Maybe... Hitman 47 - I just love the ambiance of these games... and what's better, the games come standard with a full orchestral movie score! Woot. That's a game?? Never heard of it... (FF:TSW was the best ever! I thought the movie would turn out liek the games; all convoluted and spend most of the film talking endlessly about minutae liek Japanese games and films are wont to do. But I was pleasently surprised when it had a very engaging storyline, NO magic, and a minimal amount of Japanese culture bogging it down. I own the special edition DVD... one of my favourite movies.) Best Video Game movie ever I suppose. It was a very fun movie to watch, I just wished it was more fantasy based then sci-fi based. Granted teh storyline wasn't perfect ("What have I done!?!", Steve Buschemi)... but it was pretty original... at least to us Americans. Granted it was a great deal Eye candy... but the plot was just... well, I thouroughly enjoyed it. not to mention the Soundtrack, my GOD Elliot Goldenthal is the greatest. I'm so thankful that they paid that man enough to do that film... they could have just gotten some stock FF composer to come in and ruin the whole atmopsphere. What's wrong with Nobuo Uematsu, Hitoshi Sakamoto and a host of others?? They are just as capable of doing a original score then this Elliot Goldenthal fellow. I assume by stock FF composer you mean any run of the mill, video game composer? You know who would make a great Joanna Dark? (Perfect Dark) Carrie Ann Moss! Dont flame me leXX! If you knew that game youd understand what I mean. I'd like to see someone different. Someone whose Welsh or English. Maybe Catherine Zeta-Jones?? My knowledge of English brunette actor's is limited heh (who'd look good with a short 'doo). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jedi_Monk Posted December 20, 2002 Share Posted December 20, 2002 Legends of Zelda (they need to make more epic fantasy movies, dammit! Can't get enough of the stuff!) and The Wheel Of Time (based on the books of the same name ). Also wouldn't mind seeing a Dark Force movie, so long as it had a big-honkin' "Star Wars Infinities" logo on its poster! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
