Hitman might be interesting too.

List of films derf thinks might be good:

Civilisation II
Microsoft Solitaire
The Sims
FIFA 2006
Pong
Pong 2: The Comeback
Pong 3: Revenge
Pong 4: Annihilation
Tetris
Doom (oh wait, that's been done already)
Tetris 2: Red Winter

I cant wait for solitaire!

lol @ Red Winter.

I think a Hitman movie would invariably suck btw. The storyline is good for games, but to form a full-fledged movie plot there seem to be some open spaces that need filling. But meh, I don't know the series THAT well so nevermind me.

I agree. I thought it would make a film only on the basis of filling those huge holes. As for the general theme, it would have to be dark, but subtle to the fact that it is actually based on a game. The good thing is that 47 is an excellent potential leading character. His persona is mysterious, so he remains pretty much formally unaligned in terms of moral, allowing the filmwriters to mould him as they wish. Plus he's a clone, which is cool in itself.

One problem i think they may encounter is how to differentiate between The Bourne Identity. Its kinda the same thing.

As for Tetris: Red Winter, thats just a success story waiting to happen. Imagine, all is fine at the end of Tetris 1, the blocks finally made it to level 20 and we saw our unlikely hero (2-by-1) outwit his rival (2-by-2) in a tense finale. Little did they know that 4-by-1 was actually a Soviet informer. An assassination attempt is narrowly avoided on the leader of the blue blocks (to be revealed) and all hell breaks loose. All sorts of shit happens from then on. The Soviets launch an offensive consisting of wave after wave of those annoying "Zeds" (2-by-2-by-2). Not one for kids. Rated 18 in the UK, 16 in the US, but only PG in Belgium. Belgians don't fear communists. They eat them for breakfast, along with garlic waffles or whatever their goddamn national dish is.

rofl, methinks Derf needs to switch his degree to 'Movie Hyping'. Heck, if Tetris could be that fun, I'd go watch the movie!

you guys must be really bored. Wish I was bored.

heh, by all means, knock yourself out. I jsut haven't had enough time to be very post productive.

How about a game based on Battlefield 1942? We'll call it....hmmm...."Saving Private Ryan". I think it'll make millions.

Yeah, i dig what youre saying. Im thinking...Matt Damon? He could be the captain of a team that goes to rescue a soldier caught deep in enemy lines...Tom Hanks can do that. We need a nerd somewhere in there too. You know, one of those guys that are unfortunately dropped into the roster but are only good at pushing pencils...Im thinking...Sizemore.

Hehe..ever seen Team America?

'Matt...Damon!!"

Mattie has quite the vocabulary.
