Why are video game movie adaptations all the rage lately? The Tomb Raider's were terrible. And Max Payne was a joke. Seriously to this day I think the best game movie was Super Mario Bros. And that's saying something! (especially since niether of those actors are even Italian)

Well, let's just say this amount of post isn't common for good movies.

That's not the warning sign.

The fact that it is a video game movie isn't the warning sign.

The big red neon "TURD" sign is that it is a SyFy "production".

It's a "tweet". Proper spelling isn't necessary.

Is it bad that I have relatively high hopes for this movie?

Would love to see a Metal Gear Solid movie. I think any good game has great potential for a film

Just play the last Metal Gear Solid game?

As for the movie, a movie based on a game has no chance with a big name Hollywood studio.

But with SciFi? (I still refused to call it that stupid "SyFy.")

You have no chance in hell. This is the channel that would air something called "Flying Jellyfish Versus The Mars Italian Pasta Men", and slap their name on it.

Stop making video games into movies and vice versa. Keep them separate.

If you ask me, I think TV movies might be a better venue for game-to-movie adaptations. There's probably not as much executive meddling and they won't just go for the biggest name they can find who will probably screw up the property once they get their hands on it (for a recent example, see the upcoming Uncharted movie).
