Over until some other obscure end-of-the-world date comes up...

...and we are finally reaching the bottom of the video game barrel. :ganishka:

Yeah I saw that a few days ago. I was, and still am, perplexed.

Reading the article, it makes it even funnier. I can understand if some low budget studio want's to do this but to be a bidding war on it? :troll:

Someone is getting rich off this and I don't it is (nor will be) the studio that gets the rights to it.

I think everyone needs to pitch money together to buy the rights to Pong, Frogger, and Battle Tanks. Sooner or later someone will come to buy it from us. :troll:

How the fuck are you suppose to make a movie about this game when all it's about is shooting asteroid's in a tiny little ship :troll:

These people are trying to pull whatever movie they can outta there ass huh...... looks like some people are desperate to make a few bucks :ganishka:

How long is it until we see board game movies? Hungry Hungry Hippos, Mouse Trap, LIFE, and Hi Ho Cherry-O are gonna be the big summer movies soon.
Oh, and look at this wonderful bit of news.

Yes! This means an adaptation of SimCity's right around the corner! :guts:

And, personally, I'm holding out for Bubble Bobble's big screen debut.

SaiyajinNoOuji · July 4, 2009

I really don't see what is so difficult to make a decent game adaptation... In my mind a Kid Icarus movie could be pretty cool but I dread what it could turn into. :judo:

Universal has the rights for "Magic: The Gathering", "Ouija (Michael Bay)", "Candy Land", "Battleship" (Peter Berg), "Stretch Armstrong" and "Monopoly" (Ridley Scott). Whether they ever see the light of day is another question (hopefully negated).

On a side note Stan Lee is going to appear in the Venom Spin-off.

Honestly wtf? What can they possibly conjure up as a story? I never played the sims games. Is there even the slightest bit of storyline in it?

I could see the movie start off with random people doing their normal things in life... when all of a sudden a giant hand reaches from the heavens and grabs them and places them into small rooms with a window wall, a painting set and no bathroom.

Then once that trail is done they are compelled to swim continuously in a swimming pool that has no way to get out. :ganishka:

2012 anyone?

From the makers of independence day, Godzilla, and the Day after Tomorrow comes yet another end of the world disaster movie. How many times can these guys destroy the white house? I'm surprised they didn't blow it up 1,000 B.C..

it's 10,000 B.C. Oburi

You are a fucking pussy. :azan:

Edit: I've done 5 hours of sleep in 7 days and 0 hours of sleep in 3 days.

Try being at an anime con for 3 days with not enough money for a hotel, and nobody being allowed to sleep outside of a hotel room. Well, I guess I did get sleep in one of the video rooms for like a half hour but I was rudely awoken by the staff. :mozgus:

I heard a frightening rumor today that the Castlevania movie is still alive... Hoping this isn't true :griff:
