Yeah, I've heard something about this somewhere. But I never really cared enough to pay attention.

I think it would've been Super Mario Bros. - gawd that was a BAD movie :evil laugh:

Some games released as movies (or possibly vice versa)

Super Mario Bros.
Street Fighter
Mortal Kombat
Tomb Raider
Resident Evil
Doom
Silent Hill
Halo
Most popular games these days... :blink:

Tron
Star Wars
Star Trek
LotR

you have got to be f***ing me with a frog gigger.  How in the hell are they going to make a good movie out of a game that is too easy and short.

well microsoft has demanded total control of the script and story, which is why its taking so long to make as no director will work under those conditions. i know that Pter Jackson is producing it. i wish he would direct. theres rumors that denzel washington will be playing Sergeant Johnson.

If thats the case, it will mean the movie will be very relient and drama and not just the halo dialogue we are used to.

god i hope they dont make it a piece of s*** like the Doom movie was. what a travesty that was. hopefully halo the movie will be the world's first successful video game movie. but i wont hold my breath.
