best video game movies

[Dontebell]

what are best video game movie ever?

[cqb101]

None. Most videogame movies suck.

[Stone Ill]

I can think of a few..

Super Mario Bros.
Tomb Raider 1&2
Mortal Kombat 1&2
Street Fighter

That's about all I've seen.. and they all sucked. Well, MK1 was okay..

[Raven]

um I really cant think of any.

[Reznorite420]

The first remotely decent one I ever saw was Mortal Kombat. I think the only reason they decided to make a sequel of it was because the guys over at Williams probably thought, "Ooops! Paul Anderson didn't f**k it up enough! Let's give someone else the rights to do a sequel and do it RIGHT [or rather, wrong] this time!"

The reverse was true with the Tomb Raider movies; I thought the first one was pretty lame, too jumbled, and had terrible acting. At least Cradle of Life had a better script to it, though I can't help but wonder if the entire concept was ripped off from Raiders of the Lost Ark.

[Voltron]

My favorite?

Tetris the movie.

[Bowser_Koopa]

[Bowser_Koopa]

penny arcade, i see now............you're right is better!!

[Meira-Bates]

Mortal Kombat
Resident Evil

and if animated stuff counts
Sakura Wars

[ZariusTwo]

Pokemon 2000, really, it's the only good Pokemon movie, had a great plot, and we even finally got Misty acting pissed that Ash was'nt banging her

[Taloniss]

Good + Video Game Movie = Oxymoron.

[impetus]

I haven't seen all of these, but these're supposed to be the good ones:

Tomb Raider (crappy games but I liked the flick)
Tekken (anime)
Street Fighter (anime)
The Wizard! OK, it was cool in 1988.
Resident Evil

[Bowser_Koopa]

i forgot about street fighter 2! :o that movie was awesome!!!(not the live action one, this one was in 1994, at the end ryu and ken fight bison together, and ryu is the starring), but i didn't like that honda had well defined ab muscles on the top of his belly and floppy fat on the botton, thats impossible O.o

[Reznorite420]

Good + Video Game Movie = Oxymoron.As Henry Kissinger once said, "Too bad 90% of politicians give the other 10% a bad reputation." The same can be said about video game movies and ones that haven't been made yet too.

[Fugitoid Jones]

Ok, I like Mortal Kombat 1 and even though it's not very good, Super Mario Bros. is enjoyable. However, everything else sucks my ass. Resident Evil, MK2, Street Fighter, Double Dragon, House of the Dead, Tomb Raider, and TR2. All bad.

wasn't Demonlition Man based on a video game?

[That Matt Guy]

I wish they would make a Pong movie.

[JameO]

I wish they would make a Pong movie.

Now that would be intense. Even better than the wacky world of Tetris.

Live action pac-man would own both of those.

[ThirdMarioBro]

Street Fighter II is the best video game movie at the moment. The fight between Chun Li & Vega is the best part (if you've seen it, you know why). :D But, the Metroid movie that is in production could soon take that honor (I hope, I hope, I hope).

[Meira-Bates]

Oh yeah, I also liked Tekken X.x don't know how I forgot it when I own a copy of the thing.

[Voltron]

PONG?!

Louie Anderson could be the ball.

chun-li in tights+really cool fight+chun-li's unmentionable+chun-li's unmentionable(but sadly censored)=OH yeah :D

[Brodie]

As much as I bitch about i, Resident Evil is probably the best. Mortal Kombat was cool too, the second sucked vigerously. Who kills off Johnny Cage and doesn't bring him back?! The first can stand on it's own as a solid flick, Goro was cool as hell, so was Reptile and Subzero.

[Meira-Bates]

heh How you guys go on about Street Fighter 2 makes me think of that messed up Street Fighter Alpha anime. Though I have to say I do like the fact Rose basicaly handed Ryu his arse, I didn't really like the movie. Anyhow, made me think of that because they kept showing shots of Chun-Li's breasts and butt and AHERM...even though she was fully clothed. I didn't think anything of it the first time or two, but the farther into the movie it went the more Chun-Li scenes seemed to be revolved around those three clothed parts...serieously X.x

[Mecha Cow]

That was cancelled, I believe.

As for VG movies, Mortal Kombat is the only decent one I can think of right now. The first one, mind. The sequal was pathetic to the point where it's actually humorous.

[Dontebell]

i don't know why evryone hate MK2 i think it was great.

Lord, she's crazy! :lol: I love SFA the movie. The only Street Fighter anime I haven't liked is SFII V. It's just...Too wrong. Way way way too wrong. Sagat and Ryu being friends is just unacceptable. SFII the animated movie though is just flat out...excellent. I can't begin to say how obsessed with Street Fighter I became because of that movie. And how can anyone be against Ryu!? That's the devil talkin', child.

Oh yea, and as far as the best video game based live action films go, I'm gonna have to say Mortal Kombat.. And the worst probably being Street Fighter, Double Dragon and Resident Evil.

i have never seen the alpha movie :cry:

[Jarrah White]

Driver 3 is set out in next year, so is Driver: The Movie.

The main reason I didn't like it was that it seemed to much like they just ripped off Battle Arena Todishen(sp?) anime's (which is another video game movie adaption I kinda like) plot, but threw in things like Ryu's fighting Akuma and junk @.@ and it's not so much I don't like Ryu (though I kinda don't) as it is that I DO like Rose ^.^

[Karpo_007]

Mortal Kombat was pretty good action movie. Rest of VG movies = T3h Suck. I can't even begin to Imagine why someone would consider RE a good movie... I watch Super Mario Brothers ten times in a row before even consider watching RE again.

[Bowser_Koopa]

well i LOVED it, it had so much action, and blood, and all that stuff, the only thing i didn't like was that it was a cliff hanger

[Meira-Bates]

*feels the same way....but liked the cliff hanger*

[Karpo_007]

Action and Blood... That pretty much proves you haven't see any "real" Zombie movies.

[Meira-Bates]

Action and Blood... That pretty much proves you haven't see any "real" Zombie movies.

I haven't but is Resident Evil supposed to be like the Resident Evil games or like the "real" zombie movies? I need to see more movies period @.@ but I'm mostly wanting to see horror ones...any of those movies you'd recomend Karpo? ^.^

[Karpo_007]

Well there are a lot of Zombie movies out there, but pretty much only 3 that are considered classics, The Dead Trilogy directed by George A Romero. Night of the Living Dead, Dawn of the Dead and Day of the Dead.

When you have seen those you will not consider Resident evil Bloody. The problem with that movie is the fact is was targeted to mass market, to Teenagers. I am a big fan of the game series, and was waiting for a Zombie/Horror movie, and I was very disapointed that it was a mere Teen action movie. Well biggest reason probably is the fact that I was Spoiled by the above mentioned Good Zombie movies.

[Meira-Bates]

Oooooh I can't wait to see those then *grins widely* Many thanks Karpo.

[Leo656]

.... did Karpo just say "T3h suck"???

[Karpo_007]

Yep... Must be the bad influence I get around here... :lol:

[Voltron]

They could have made such a kick ass movie out of House of the Dead. But they did the same teen action thing as before...

[Karpo_007]

Haven't seen that movie yet, but I have heard the same.

[Bowser_Koopa]

just beacause there better and blodier movies doesn't mean RE was bad, maybe you don't like it because you were expecting more, that happened to me with spider-man, although i don't hate the spider-man movie

[Karpo_007]

No, Bad acting, weak plot, countless stupid details, and the fact it's toned down for teens make it a bad movie.

[Bowser_Koopa]

mmm........i never saw it that way, *shrugs* i still like it a lot, is not as bad as street fighter, i mean come on the starring is Guile? why?!

[Karpo_007]

Have to agree with that, Street Fighter was even worse.

[Brodie]

The funniest zombie movie: Meat market. Horrible B flick, the end credits are scrolled over a busted skull with maggots in it. It has lesbian vampires, a mexican wrestler who may or may not be the devil. It's hilarious.

[Relay]

Resident Evil hands down!
