If you ever see the name "Alan Smithee" in the credits of the film, means that the director felt so bad that he would not give her name.

The players know that many video game movies as The Fantastic 4 is based, Chronicles of Riddick, Batman, Superman - the list goes on and on. But on the basis of video game movies? How did they do? Here is a list of games adapted into films in the last ten years, as it did, and expectedgame to movie projects in the future.The first Super Mario Brothers. in 1993, is a weak interpretation of the game in which Dennis Hopper plays King Koopa, a dinosaur evolved. There was not much of a plot and the film was a harrowing 140 minutes. The audience felt the same way that the film bombed at the box office. You can not stop Hollywood from the production of many other film adaptations of video games like Final Fantasy The Spirits Within, theMortal Kombat series of Tomb Raider and Doom recently. Mortal Kombat was the 1995, the series was taken next to the big screen. Basa many games still to fan base, had no real plot and more like an old Kung Fu, then a big budget film.

The next step came in 2001, Tomb Raider, based on the game in 1996. This film was a good understanding of the game, exploration, treasure, monsters, and consisted mainly of Lara Croft, played by AngelinaPretty. Jolie looked the part of Lara Croft, as well as any human could, is a big reason the film was good and had a character reveals a good story. Because of these factors, the movie Tomb Raider, a new trend for the future of video game movies.

Final Fantasy The Spirits Within, in 2001, is actually based on the game, but the philosophy behind the games that is, parallel universes and the existence of ghosts. But he has lost the reason for the film to $ 120Millions of U.S. dollars is not the act, but the CG animation. It 's true that the revolutionary character and texture mapping shader for his time in the film industry, but also with the use of CG no emotion through the eyes of the characters and faces, leading in turn is equivalent document in error and failure at the box office.

Resident Evil, 2002, tried a different approach to its adaptation, in an effort, attention, many sub-plots to capture the viewer. DoWork? No. The problem here is that the film Resident Evil become more of an action, then a horror / thriller, like the games where. The movie was not really scary, there were only zombies, mutant dogs and the Licker (the only real monster in the movie), so there is no need to say what this movie is in the box.

Then came Doom. There is a 1. person shooter, but it was thicker. The Doom series has always been theater. You are in a roomMarine with a mission to Mars Portal hell together more closely with a huge arsenal of weapons like rocket launchers and chainsaws. You might think that manufacturers must produce a script worthy of the art in video games, but I think the producers must have been for lunch, because there was no mention of hell in the movie. Instead, it was bad experience for DNA on Mars. Instead of killing the demons, the Marines killed zombies. Civilians by the hundreds have been killed while invideo game show has just been murdered. Another failure that we have to wait and see.

In Silent Hill, a key scene is when the protagonist is told in a simple memory map and the left, right, left, the right of nature to navigate through a labyrinth movie. Let the games industry so popular was the ability for the player, his decisions in the game, while in the film, there is only one possibility of reducing the flame of the Games.

Tomb Raider filmthis writer was the only option for very decent action movie and the plot, and then delivered in box. This means that all games would be terrible movie? No. In fact, we have news that Peter Jackson is the change, which means that a movie of the Halo series, see if it lives up to its promise of planning.
