There was a Double Dragon movie? Seriously? When? Cast?
Same question about the Mortal Kombat. I know there was a tv series, but a movie?

not to be a link dropper but go to www.imdb.com and you can see the cast and details about both movies :)

Only good game movie that ever came out was Mortal Kombat, and the fact that it was based on a fighting game and came out pretty good is pretty sad considering that some movies had more potential.
Yeah I agree. :ok:

Anyone remembers the crazy action/fun sequence in a Jackie Chan old flick where he turns into Street Fighter characters ? The movie was Nicki Larson, but that title was for the french market, i don't know what name it went under in other countries. The real street fighter movie starring J.C. Van Damme wasn't half as funny. It seems that most game-based movies are crap.
They could do a Lemmings TV serial. Lots of ways to die and some hardcore lemmings could survive from one episode to the next. It could be fun in a Jim Henson way...
Then again, maybe i should rest a little. :bannana:

That would be a great film. :ok:

I can just imagine Tim Curry as the evil zombie ghost pirate LeChuck! :twisted:


EDIT - and James Marsters and Amy Acker (Spike & Fred from Buffy Vampire Slayer) playing Guybrush and Elaine.

They already turned Monkey Island into a movie: Pirates of the Carribbean.

Monkey Island, the computer game was itself inspired on the attraction/ride at Disney Land parks.
