Media Center>Best video game based movies
Raiderhater 06:41 PM 10-10-2020
I’m sitting here giving Resident Evil a rewatch (Milla Jovavich FTW) and it’s got me thinking about video game based movies that are good, and those that aren’t. RE I consider rather good. Hitman is entertaining. The Angelina Jolie Tomb Raider was only so so, and I haven’t seen the new one. Max Payne was quite disappointing. And from what little I can remember of it, I feel like the Super Mario Bros movie was bad, especially by today’s standards.

Those are a few to get the discussion started. What are the hits and misses in everyone’s opinions?

Scott Pilgrim is a comic movie that watches like a video game movie.

Double Dragon was the shit.

Also, Sonic was hella fun. IMHO

Mortal Kombat was awesome back then

Silent hill was good

Street Fighter with Jean Claude sucked

Definitely NOT Doom, lol. I will admit it's a guilty pleasure, though, and Rosamund Pike makes it move.

If it still moves after Gone Girl, you might have an imbalance of some sort. :-)

“Tron” the movie came out before the video game.

Can we count movies ABOUT video games, like “Pixels”, “Ready Player One”, “Wreck-It Ralph”, the “Jumanji” sequel with the Rock, etc.,.?

Teen Wolf. I loved playing double dribble when I was a kid.

They made it pretty cool video game based on the movie after it came out as well.

Warcraft wasn't terrible all things considered, and actually stuck close to the source material too.

I do not understand why it did so abysmally in the theaters.

My dad has never played a single second of any of the WoW universe games and enjoyed the movie with me quite a bit.

I never played WoW either. Thought the movie was pretty lousy. The orcs seemed way more powerful than the humans and should have just stomped them. It was a bit confusing, not knowing anything about the game. The CGI was too cartoony.

I think wreck it ralph is in a grey area, it's based on two fake games with a bunch of references to real games.
