General Video Game Movie Discussion

Please list all the games you can think of whose stories would make a good flick that haven't been done already. I'll start.

- They Hunger
- Flashback
- Out of this World
- Faxanadu
- Alone in the Dark
- The Last Half of Darkness
- The Legend of Zelda
- Half-Life*

*Half-Life could be combined with Blue Shift and Opposing Force for a 3-way movie with multiple main characters.

I have an idea of which actor's would be good for Half-Life. Charlie Sheen could play Gordon Freeman. Bruce Campbell could play Barney Calhoun. And Michael Biehn could play Corporal Adrian Shepherd. I know Michael Biehn might seem too old to play a corporal, but they can make him look younger, like back in the '80s when he was playing characters like Kyle Reese and Corporal Dwayne Hicks. Either that or he could play a seargent and someone else could play Shepherd. But who? Someone in their 20s who's a good character actor. You choose.

Spice World

Have they made a good movie from a video game yet? No. Oh wait, I forgot about Super Mario Bros. 🙄 😄

Flashback would be odd, based as it was on Total Recall but with aliens in...

Charlie Sheen as Freeman? Nowhere near nerdy enough.

Warrwick David would make a good Zelda (or Link or whatever the hell his name is)

Warwick Davis is a good actor, he's playing some scarry looking weird wizard tecaher dude in HP.

His voice annoys me.

Doesn't he have a Scottish accent?
🤣

I am William Wallace!😄

I'm Scrouge McDuck!!
Wait! Is he Irish?😕

I think he was Scottish. Along with his arch enemy, Glomgold. Man, Ducktails is a great show.🙂

Race cars, laser, aeroplanes,.......da-da-da-danger lurkes behind you...what to do? Just grab on to some ducktals Woo hoo...Disney's Ducktales!!!
I loved that cartoon, it would come on right after Tale Spin, I really miss that cartoon too🙁

Mel Gibson plays some of the best characters ever!

- Max Rockatanski
- Martin Riggs (or is it Briggs?)
- William Wallace
- Benjamin Martin
- Porter

The first Lethal Weapon was good except for the part where Riggs takes out a sniper with a pistol from way-afar. No pistol is that accurate. That's what rifles are for. Every Lethal Weapon after that one became contiuously more anti-gun, which displays the hypocrisy of its creators. It confuses me how Mel Gibson would be party to that, seeing as how his other movies display a completely opposing viewpoint (and one I agree with).

The first Lethal Weapon is also good because of Mel's zany antics - like the part where he pulls a Curly and slaps all those guys across the face simultaneously.

I loved Scrooge's #1 Dime. I always envied him for keeping track of his first cent earned.

How did he get it anyway, Tex (or whoever). I seem to remember that he polished shoes, then got his first dime. Is this different from anyone else's memory?

thats what i remember too.

Does anyone know if it is still on perhaps the "Disney Channel"?😕

The reason I think Charlie Sheen could play a good Gordon Freeman is because of the character he played in 'The Arrival', Zane Zaminkski, who was very much like Gordon Freeman. He'd just have to dye his hair and eyebrows red, grow a goatee and dye it red, and wear green contancts and '50s-style thick black plastic-rimmed glasses...oh yeah, and khaki slacks, a blue button-front shirt, a red and black diagonal-striped tie (upper-left to lower-right), brown shoes, and a white lab coat. And over that, he'd have to wear an orange and black hazard suit. Actually, I'm not sure if Gordon takes off the tie, shoes, and lab coat before putting on the hazard suit, but he probably does.

To quote one of the scientists, "Why do we all have to wear these ridiculous ties?!"

I hate all ties - neck ties, bow ties - all of them. Ties are useless. They're meant for nothing but image. Society thinks of them as symbols of professionalism. I think of professionalism in terms of functionality, not image. Form follows function. A tie has no function, serves no purpose. It's pure aesthetic. As a utilitarian-minded person, I oppose the futility of image without substance. A vest is a far more practical choice than a tie.

I also don't like multi-thousand dollar business suits. If you're going to spend more than $100 on a garment, it better be made out of leather. You can get a leather jacket or trench coat for between $100 and $400 that'll last you the rest of your life and longer. Compare that to a flimsy $2,000 suit that could get torn up with the greatest of ease. So then, where's the logic in wearing any material besides leather?

Leather is so versatile. There all kinds of colors, textures, and types. If all the mediocre body-covering materials were abolished and leather adopted as the new standard, humanity would be liberated from the complacency imposed on them by normalcy-enforcing textiles. The choice of the individual would still exist because of leather's versatility. Everyone would have their own custom-made leathers and everyone would be able to afford it. No one would have to be satisfied to just make due with the Tyranny of Cloth.

Metal Gear would make a GREAT movie.

For some reason I picture HavocHound as a big coffee drinker.😄

guilty! 😉
🤣
I like all kinds of coffee, though when I typed that, I hadn't had any. I like the thick stuff - cappucinos and lattes. My favorite is a hazelnut cappucino with orange syrup and nutmeg.
