Which video games would you like to see as films and who should direct them?

[snakeplissken]

Being a Video game geek as well as a cinema aficionado, I love it when the two worlds collide.

The complete failures (hello Mortal Kombat: Annihilation) often fall into the so bad they're good genre, and they usually come with cardboard cut-out villains whose megalomaniacal plans for world domination are so obvious they hit you like blunt force trauma to the head (Dungeons & Dragons, take a bow)

Yes, we've all had our fingers burnt by this genre at some point. I mean really, who in the world wasn't massively disappointed with Doom?

Who else wept uncontrollably when told Neill Blomkamp wouldn't be directing Halo: The Movie anytime soon?

Anyway, I digress, the point of this thread is this:

Which video games do you want to see as films and who do you want to see direct them?

This CAN include films that have already been made but badly (Max Payne, we mean you), and fantasy casting welcomed too....

I'll get the ball rolling with Half Life 2, directed by the Wachowski Brothers with Clive Owen as Gordon Freeman (oooohhhh, controversial!)

Ladies & Gents, the floor is yours....
