Good!!!

I wouldn't want a Zelda movie to be f*cked up the same way the Super mario Bros movie was.

Really, if it't that good that you wana make a movie, why change the whole plot?

My problem with video game movies is, and always will be, isn't making a movie out of a game basically saying- "Video games aren't important enough as an art form, let's make a movie!"

or a celebration of gaming?

I'd like a Zelda film. something dark and gritty, set alongside Link to the Past or Twilight Princess. Or something arty and dream like.

Ace, by that logic, making a movie out of a book is like saying the book isn't an important art form. I think we have enough ammunition against video game movies without getting pretentious about it.

You're right... having been corrected, video game movies still suck.

I know we all look to the "Super Mario Bros." movie as the worst video game adaption EVER, but I always liked it for what it was. It was cheesy, the story made little sense, and the acting wasn't the best, but I still enjoy it to this day.

I hope that a Metroid movie wouldn't be critcally panned like th SMB movie was, but even if it is, I'll still probably enjoy it.

Also, as a sidenote, I think a Metroid movie would help to bring Nintendo back into the mainstream and help to get older gamers to look at it as a company to be reckoned with when comparing it to Sony and Microsoft.

If they are goin to make a Zelda movie it better be the same quality as The Lord of the Rings.

Hmmm... Peter Jackson Directing the zelda movie? Now we're unto something! :D

And David, while I agree SMB was a crap game to movie port, Don't you think Street Fighter deserves the title of worse ever game-movie?

*he begins to cry*

...why did Guile have to be the Hero? Why go for an all-star cast of people who have never heard of the game?.....WHHHYYYYYY???...

But hey, I think Mortal Kombat 1 was incredible and stuck to its guns, so maybe with the right director (who doesn't wana change the story) Zelda might be worth watching?
