Imma agree with ninja about Sin City for the visuals alone, though Tatsuya Miyami's "Mad World" might have that covered:

"Wanted" would be cool. . . ish, if they had a unique bullet-curving mechanic.
but wtvr.

smuttbullen:
Land of the dead

they did that already.

Silent Biohazard Solid:
The Firefly/Serenity series would make a good video game. There's a lot of potential for various different gameplay elements that could be implemented into a game based on it.

Hell yes. Make it a Mass Effect style action RPG and I'd buy it in a heartbeat.

I would really like to see the bourne movies.... no wait, thats been done, how about Matrix? no, done as well. umm LOTR? tick, done. okay, so the movies i have listed have been done, but how about them done well?? thats what i would like to see

On a more serious note than my earlier post, a Jurassic Park survival game. As far as I know, there isn't a game based on 'The Park'.

Besides the light gun arcade games, I think there was a Zoo Tycoon-like Jurassic Park game, not sure though. It sounds like a decent setting for a military shooter, where you're helicopter crash landed on the island and you and you're teammates need to find a way off. Stealth and using the environment for camoflouage or for setting traps would be a big part of the game. Add some squad mechanics, free roaming gameplay, and sections where you can play as a raptor or T-rex, and you've got yourself a pretty kickass single player. For multiplayer, there could be a soldier vs dinosaur mode, similiar to Lost Planet Colonies.

And of course there is Trespasser, which is a Jurassic Park game in all but name- an FPS with you on an island full of dinosaurs.

MGS4

oh, im so funny...

Nah, i loves the old snake and his game, but thank god for skippable scenes on the later play-throughs

Not a movie yet, but a game based on Watchmen would be pretty interesting. It is my dream to one day to use Rorschach to torch a cop.

Metal Gear Solid 4
/Predictable groundless joke

The Saw movies
The Back to the Future trilogy.
The Blues Brothers. It'd be like a hybrid of GTA and Rock Band.
Catch Me If You Can.

Johnn Johnston:
Star Wars. I cannot think of a single Star Wars game, ever.

Are you serious?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Star_Wars_video_games

At any rate - Starship Troopers, and Enemy at the Gates

Any time I see someone say "Bad Form" or "Poor Form" I always have this epic flashback to 'Hook' man I loved that movie....they could spiff that up and give it an R rating (add some blood, maybe a boob) and tell the darker side of peter pan....that would make an awesome movie

Oops..got off topic. Sorry about that.

I'm gonna go masturbate to how good that sounds. I may be some time.

The Brave Little Toaster. Nuff said.

It will be nice to see Max Payne soon and how Bioshock is developed.

I'd love to see a game based off a Sam Peckinpah movie like The Wild Bunch (1969) or Cross of Iron (1977).

Cross of Iron could make a nice game and it would be nice to have a solid first person shooter that showed WW2 from a German perspective with gritty realism that showed the madness of war.

Going the other way i would like to see Hidden & Dangerous turned into a movie, could be great movie showing the birth of the Special Air Service in North Africa with the Long Range Desert Group and later the battle for europe.

Shoot 'em Up: The amazing gunfighting, stlylistic action and witty dialogue would make for an engaging third person shooter.

Undercover Brother: You know you would play it.

Saw : The MMO.

The_root_of_all_evil:
Saw : The MMO.

Yeah, it plays like second life, until suddenly you get abducted and locked in an elaborate death trap... possibly involving furries...

Ichi the killer, crazy ass sado vs masochist deathmaches and corpse slicing galore

or.... maybe a monty python game....

Porn movies! That would be amazing! It would be like a button matching game! Most probably the Wii would be the best choice! 'Move your Wii remote forward and back in fast sucsession'

The Blues Brothers. It'd be like a hybrid of GTA and Rock Band.

I kept jokingly suggesting this in the "Next GTA setting" forum, but nobody got the joke.

Anyway, I think it'd be better as a mix of "Old School Adventure" game and "GTA-Style Car Chases" since I'd never want to drive anything but the Blues Mobile (read Stripped Down Police Cruiser).

I know its not the topic, but I think that John woo should make a Ninja Gaiden movie. that would be so freaking action packed that I would leave the theater and then want to go back to the box office and see it again.

I made this without noticing a second page.

i'd like to see a good game come out of a movie first....

As i said, i thought Bladerunner was good... I'm trying to think of more now...

Office Space

You can play as different characters and according to who you picked you either have find pieces of flare or destroy the printer.

Sounds like a typical 90s sidescroller lol

Goldeneye, regularly called one of the best games on N64.

Oh yeah, thats another one... don't know how i forgot it...

There's that John Woo game which might as well be based on a film, it does feature Chow Yun Fat's character from Hard Boiled. I've never played it though, so no idea if its any good or not...

FranicalFrazical:
GrindHouse (including the trailers): Come on why not?

Yes, I totally agree!

I think an awesome movie-turned-game would be an anime called Ninja Scroll. It could be a third-person action game where you play as Jubei, and maybe as Kagero and Dakuan in some parts. The Eight Devils of Kimon would make for amazing boss fights!

It's been said already.
Sin City, if it could infact be aptly executed with style!

Also my other choice has been said, 'Akira'.
I reckon they could keep it cartoony ala DBZ Budokai graphics, but make it a viciously bloodthirsty and dismember-friendly 3rd person style adventure//platformer//sandbox.

Mmmmmm if only i could plug my brain into a USB port and code a game with my thoughts.

I would say a nice Hellraiser game, but when ever Barker's name gets near videogame production, something horrible goes wrong.

Maybe something based off Event Horizon, Virus, and Bladerunner (yes I know it's been thrown out there,but i still love it)

Maybe someone could revive the old 80's-90's slasher genra, but instead of beating the bad guy, you are the bad guy. Being Vorhee's slashing up teenagers in the woods, or Mike Myers getting trick or treaters, or warping dreams like Krueger could be an interesting game.

Kron_the_mad:
or.... maybe a monty python game....

There's been two I can remember : The Quest for the Holy Grail adventure and a sideways sh'mup on the 64/Amiga.

I don't want to see any movie made into a game ever again. Why? Because it's pointless. No game has ever been better because of a movie license. If anything it's the opposite. Licences hampers the creativity of the developers and in worst case makes them lazy because they know the licence will generate a higher number of sales even if they don't put as much effort in. Besides for any movie genre there are a bunch of unlicenced games that are in almost every case better then their licenced counterparts.

Perhaps, but have you never wanted to interact with the world of a movie? I know i have. Sin City could work quite well, you wouldn't have to play as one of the film/comic characters, maybe as a new character who happens to have their own story interweaving the main ones (i think this is why Bladerunner worked so well, personally, but thats just my opinion, natch.)

Godfather, proof that games can become good, even if not earth-shattering, games.
