Make a movie about a game?

Post by BlackFox898 »

It seems to be in the works for a few games(halo, zelda) but what game would you make a movie about and what actors would you use to play which parts/characters?

I would make one about the Half Life series

Gordon Freeman: Hugh Laurie/ or maybe Adam Savage
Alyx Vance: Rosario Dawson
G-man: Keanu Reeves
Eli Vance: Morgan Freeman(yes Eli Vance is black :shock: )
Wallace Breen: Jay Ingram
Barney Calhoun: George Clooney...(can't really think of anybody for that guy)
Isaac Kleiner: Alan Arkin
took like 1/2 hour to get this list -_-

you?

half life would make a shitty movie imo. half life is an fps and you never get to see yourself so why would they make a movie about an fps if its not gonna be shot in fps. also, gordan never says anything... at all! haha

i would personally like to see a god of war movie or something like that.

Chris Morgan (guy who wrote Wanted) is writing Gears of War.

Still have to see a video-game-to-movie adaptation that can be on par with the comic-book-to-movies'. Most of them are crap. A few are decent.

F.E.A.R.



Portal: The movie



The latter wouldn't be bad.(IMO, but thats because I <3 Portal. I would probably tear in the part where you have to say goodbye to Companion Cube. :cry: )

Turok (the new one) could be a nice 2nd grade boredom killer imo, sci-fi action with dinosaurs. And I guess Robert Beltran as Turok, he played Chakotay in Star Trek Voyager series.

I know they're making an MGS movie. But idk how in the world they're gonna manage to squeeze that into <2 hours seeing that some cutscenes in MGS themselves go over 2 hours alone.

They need to make "The Gamers 2"... for anyone who hasn't seen "The Gamers", watch it, it's f*cking hilarious.
