Games into movies doesn't always really work for me. They just seem to be solely a money-making thing. The most painful of which was the bastardization of the Resident Evil series.

On the other hand, I thoguht Silent Hill, Doom and Super Mario worked it pretty good, all for different reasons but I think its important that they know something about the game. It's similar to the comic book thing and it is pretty cool watching it go from console to big screen.

Looking at the list on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_films_based_on_video_games#Currently_in_pr oduction_or_pre-production there seems to be a lot in progress. Some of those seem like they could work, but sometimes when you know how its going to end and stuff, it's a bit tedious having to sit through the whole thing. Meh.
