I really liked the Resident Evil movie <shrug>

**Daltone** · 05-31-2003, 10:10 AM

Gotta be Streetfighter for sheer cheese value, and some classic lines -

"Change the channel!"

- "They ain't paying me enough for this"
"You got....paid"

"Shouldn't have left Microsoft."

"For you, the day Bison graced your villiage was the most important day of your life. For me, it was Thursday."

"An airstrike is not an option"
-"Ahhwww"

I liked Resident Evil too. I also didn't think Tomb Raider was bad

Street Fighter was the funniest

"They ain't paying me enough for this"
"You got....paid"

and the girl that played Cammy was hot, I wish they would have done more scenes with her.

...Everyone rushes to put in their Street Fighter movie and see what I'm talking about...

*ponders all the 4-star game-to-film possibilities*

Mortal Kombat. I was surprised how much I enjoyed it! It reminds me of a fresh & hip version of an old Ray Harryhausen flick like Sinbad and the Eye of the Tiger, where mortals travel to magical lands to defeat evil.

You know, Tomb Raider wasn't as bad as everyone claimed, IMO.

Street fighter for me

**kainemaxwell** · 05-31-2003, 04:21 PM

I'll say Mortal Kombat- played like one those badly dubbed early kung-fu movies.

**buttasuperb** · 05-31-2003, 04:42 PM

Mortal Kombat was pretty good.

I liked Super Mario Bros as well

, I'm still waiting for a sequel.

Damn, I loved the Super Mario Bros. movie for WHATEVER reason. ANd I feel your pain about that sequel, when hell freezes over and a sequel comes out, it'll be the greatest day of mankind. lol

But the best I'd agree with Street Fighter. Cammie may have been hot, but Chun-Li was hotter. That actress is the only reason I've ever watched ER.

**Raedon** · 05-31-2003, 08:20 PM

Mortal Kombat was my fav. so far.

**petewhitley** · 05-31-2003, 08:24 PM

Wasn't that Kylie Minogue? Damn, she's eternally hot...

**dave2236** · 05-31-2003, 09:57 PM

WAIT Chun Li is on ER

...puts in street fighter to see who plays Chun LI.....

I still stand my opinion that Cammy AKA Kylie Minogue? is friggin hot.

Also I don't want to hype anyone or scare anyone, but arent they doing another Mario Film??? I thought I saw or read on like Entertainment tonight that Warner Brothers or someone bought the rights from whatever company did the first mario bros. film. .......Maybe I'm Wrong.

They also bought like 10 other games, like DOA, HOTD, Road Rash,

Wait here it is " From the directors of Final Destination and American Pie have acquired the rights to make a Metroid movie, Fatal Frame, State of Emergency, Grand Theft Auto, Crazy Taxi, Dead or Alive, American McGee's Alice, Crimson Skies, Max Payne, Oni, Perfect Dark, and silent hill..........ALSO HOTD, Doom, Quake, and Duke Nuklem are in development.

**hezeuschrist** · 05-31-2003, 10:36 PM

Resident Evil, then Mortal Kombat, then probably Final Fantasy.

**simonbelmont7** · 06-01-2003, 07:59 AM

personally, I thought the FIRST Mortal Kombat was great movie, I even own the DVD!

Now the second is another story, it blew...

HOTD is done! IGN (bleh) posted a report saying that they'd seen it, and would "review it soon" . That was about 2 months ago...

Off topic, the best formula for a Doom film would be:
Doom + Ah-nuld + Tsui Hark = fun for all the family! Now, if only they'd make it...

Mario Bros, damn, I'd forgotten about that. I went to see it about 8 times at the cinema

**RetroYoungen** · 06-01-2003, 01:30 PM

D'ya think The Wizard would be considered a video game movie? It wasn't based on a game, but gaming WAS a major theme.

**hezeuschrist** · 06-01-2003, 01:52 PM

Naah, it was never a game. It was a movie about games, but it wasn't a game movie.

**l_lamb** · 06-03-2003, 12:19 AM

I'd say Resident Evil, then Final Fantasy, then...

**WiseSalesman** · 06-03-2003, 12:42 AM

I'd say Mortal Kombat, then Final Fantasy, then Resident Evil. And even those weren't GOOD....just better than the rest of the crap.

**FrankLee** · 06-03-2003, 08:24 AM
