Go see it... although it does have nothing to do with the game... the sfx are good!Prince of Persia - probably trash too
I watched that movie in cinema back then when I was a kid, I found it not that bad...back then. I know that story with Bob Hoskins and he may be right. The movie was pure trash and not worth to watch twice. But at least it had some interesting references to the games. Actualy, everythign was there: Princess Daisy, Koopa and his Troopers, Goombas, high jumps, even Yoshi and mushrooms, bo-ombs etc... I've seen game based movies with less references. Oh, and Roxette made the soundtrack! :wub:But how do any of these compare to the wonderful film "Super Mario Bros."?
The old one has a sequel in comic form that's not too bad:http://smbthecomic.com/comic/chapter-1-page-1/I would love a new (or should that be New) Super Mario Bros film
The prince of persia movie is the best videogame movie yet.Mortal Kombat 1 was enjoyable for teenage me back then,
I can't get myself to talk about Mortal Kombat 2 or the series with Kritanna Loken and those other bad actors...
Street Fighter was so trashy that it was at least fun to make fun of,
Doom screwed up the whole theme with biohazard instead of demons. Demons in space would have been something new in big movies.
Dungeons & Dragons and Bloodrayne were just the typical Uwe Boll trash, has anyone watched Postal, Far Cry and Alone in the Dark?
Super Mario Brothers was the movie Bob Hoskins never wanted to talk about and was ashamed of for good reasons.
I can remember the Double Dragon movie to be total trash too, just like Tomb Raider, Final Fantasy (pretty for the time and... completely hollow and uninteresting), Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children and Dead or Alive.
I haven't seen Hitman, Max Payne and Prince of Persia - probably trash too.
Hitman is decent, great fight scenes. Prince of persia is genuinely great. Smart and charming.Not overly videogamey and yet true to the mythos. This is because Jordan Mechner himself wrote the script. As videogame movies go this is the best.
Ive heard the silent hill movie is ok too. Alone in the dark not so much.
Why do movie adaptations of video games always have to be so bad?
I don't think it's a good idea to make the Warcraft movie with real actors.
The CGI movies from Blizzard always were out of this world and they should just let the same people make the whole movie,
think about the Warcraft 3 (+ Frozen Throne) cutscenes or the ones from Diablo 2, those are already split up movies that would be really awesome with more scenes in between.
BTW, does anyone know what has become of the Diablo movie? The rights were sold years ago but nobody seemed to have touched the concept yet.
From what I gathered, Warcraft will be about the storyline of Warcraft 1 with more sympathy for the orcs.
By the way, Assassin's Creed is coming too:

OH HEY! They finally got a decent layout! I had been following the news about it for a while and then when it finally hit I just couldn't read it because of the awful wordpress news spread they were using, a right pain in the butt. Now that they've finally got some proper navigation going on I'll be sure to keep up on it.The old one has a sequel in comic form that's not too bad:http://smbthecomic.com/comic/chapter-1-page-1/I would love a new (or should that be New) Super Mario Bros film
godamnit you're not joking. please don't let this become a thing, as there is little chance of it ever becoming something worth seeing with both eyesHow about the rumor of Netflix bringing a live action Legend of Zelda series? Personally I don't think it'll work, there's too much variety in the Zelda series: no matter what they do there'll be massive complaints that it either isn't "zelda enough" or it's "not original enough", know what I mean? I would love to see a Metroid movie though, that's something that could be done beautifully with the right directory.
