Yeah that's what I said. Watching 3D movie is quickly boring. Playing 3D we can already do it so sit down and play

I guess this idea is a nay then.

Better off watching other fantasy films.

The problem is : no video game adaptation has really done the job 'til now. But I might be forgetting one. Discussion is opened

IMO Advent Children was pretty good.

Yes for 3D movies. But for "real movies"?

The Resident Evil series have 4 movies which kicks ass. Silent Hill got one movie and that's a great horror movie.

There was plans for a Castlevania movie but it got canned if I recall correctly.

There might be more game based movies out there.

D. Prevents them from understanding that a movie of this caliber would require a huge budget in order to have even the slightest chance of being good, which it won't because major studios won't dish out that kind of cash to something this risky.
E. Prevents them from understanding that making a decent movie plot would usually require a huge rewrite of the original which would ultimately leave the fans unsatisfied.

I was going to reply with something similar to this until I saw it.
But then there are exceptions there, like Tomb Raider, Resident Evil and Prince of Persia. I think the main point is that the movie must be made with the vigilant eye and permanently by the side of the game creator, and things should be only done with his approval.

But then again, I think that yes a Zelda game would suck badly, even in that trailer (that in that year's april fool "fooled" me btw) that is made to look awesome Link looks like some wnna be of a dwarf with the green tunic ^^

Yeah there are a bunch but the great majority of them is a big pile of crap. The Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat ones are examples. And others like Final Fantasy that aren't that bad but still boring imo. And also Dragon Ball Evolution that was a big production but still, meh.

Yes, zombie movies are normally popular, no matter if they are based on a game (RE-SH series). Advent Children is kinda funny to watch. Tomb Raider... boring. Prince of persia is a rare exception, but it's not THAT great movie. OMFG! Street Figher and MK! My eyes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Pls someone close this thread, allow me to be buried in the ground before a zelda movie comes out. I wonder how'd it all fit into a movie going from temple to temple, maybe a series but still they should wait till the game franchise is nearly dead before they bury the hatchet with a movie like God of war

But it was done by Square, you know, japanese. Even if it's CG, I mean, man, they kick ass when adapting games to movies! JUST LOOK AT THIS (it's subbed if you see it on youtube):
