Castlvania: the Movie??
Okay I posted this in the Van Helsing discussion, but I wanted more people's opinion, on a Castlevania movie. Should it take place today or like Van Helsing, with the popularity of the monster hunting movies, I thought why not take a story that's been around for years in video games and give it the big screen glory it deserves, and it has the potential to be better than any of the monster movies of late. I think it would be great to see a modern spin put on it, with a old dying Belmont, trying to find his lost son to pass on the torch of monster hunting, and when he does find his son, effectively named Simon, and as the old Belmont man dies he hands his son a whip, thus begins Simon's descent into the evil underworld. This would be a great flic i think. What does everyone else think?

I Think castlevania is a mistake to make a movie of. Just for the fact that the dudes main weapon is a whip this means action scenes would be either stupidy cheesy or generally crap. I think devil may cry would be a better movie .

Well, I don't know how many Castlevania games you have played, but the whip usally gets powered a bukoo of levels including flames, lightning, and thousands of other powerups also, you usually end being able to use some sort of screen clearing spell, and other smaller powerups. Along with the holy water, and cross boomerangs, I wasn't just saying the guy was going to use a whip, only a whip through the entire movie... Now do you think its cheesy?

Im not a game player (working on current castlevania)
yes I think finding spells to endoure the whip would work.
What if the whips been in the family for years but finding a spell and descovring it works with the whip sets our charater on his journy?
