my favorite part about this whole movie is how RWS gave no fucks about licensing their IP to uwe boll
like, they knew full well boll was a terrible director who released so many bomb movies, but they just decided "yeah, let's go with it and see what happens" and it just amazingly turned out pretty good.

If this and Witcher (although technically not a Vidya show) do things right then it might give studios to adapt Vidya stories faithfully instead of trying to tone down the more ridiculous shit like in DOOM or MK.

I still believe that they were Demons, one because they never explain where the 25th chromossome came from, and Dr. Carmack plea to ''shut it down''

I'm pretty sure that if there was a sequel they would have gone to hell, The Rock said in a interview that he might come back as a demon, judging from the movie he'd most likely play the Cyberdemon since he rolls the metal railing in the arm where the gun would be and stuff.

What baffles me about this is that they were going to do the whole hell thing with Doom but didn't, I don't even know why the Doom movie would be an Alien knock-off

Postal's probably the best. His other game films are pretty fucking atrocious but Alone in the Dark had three or four music videos attached, so that was neat. BloodRayne was fucking hilariously bad. The first RE is okay but pretty tangential. The Halo Animatrix-esque stuff ranges from shit to pretty fun. DOOM's bad but whatever. Prince of Persia is inoffensive but not very fun. MK and SF are bad but had some decent scenes. I feel like i'm missing a few movies but i'm not sure what.

I found some of the characters acted weird in that movie but it might just be because I interpreted them differently in the games compared to how the writers of the movie did.

They should've gone to greater lengths to adapting the first game as a movie instead of the mishmash of lore they have. Granted, it's not anywhere near as bad as 2, but they shoehorn Pyramid Head in there because he's a fan favorite, never mind that he's central to SH2 and only that game, and I really would've loved to have seen the Incubus in a film. If it had been made by an indie studio in the style of, say, The Void, that would've been better

There's still a spiritual aspect to the virus that could easily be inserted in a sequel.

Already been posted but the only one I would consider genuinely good is Silent Hill. What is it that's so hard about adapting vidya to movies? I know with books a lot of the challenge comes from properly expositioning in a timely matter because most people don't want to watch a 5 hour movie. Is it a lack of general interest preventing people who actually know what they're doing from working on vidya adaptations?

Condemned: Criminal Origins. I've been thinking about it ever since watching NightCrawler.

>BloodRayne was fucking hilariously bad
Only thing I remember about that was the lead getting her tits out in alley or tunnel for an impromptu shagging

The people who know what they are doing don't play video games. They are trying to make movies with both hands tied behind their backs.

Its totally forgettable, like anythung Uwe gets his mitts on apart from Postal. The only reason Postal has any merit is because both he and the devs had good rapport and its a movie made to be bad. It has an awful lot of charm in a cheap comedy film sort of way. Its hardly a good, artistic film. Its just fun, bullshit and being awful is simply a part of the universe.

The best thing about that one was the parody they filmed simultaneously which featured Boll as Hitler.

Fatal Fury The Motion Picture is pretty much perfect.

The 2 OVAs before it are also really good
