Ok, let's talk Kid Icarus.

I want Macauley Caulkin for the role.

Or maybe Haley Joel Osmont

She's actually okay at acting. (She was good in The Dukes of Hazzard, and the ONLY good thing in Employee of the Month.) Plus, she's hot. I'd be okay with that.

Well I suppose vomit is the most obvious answer.

The problem with most game movies is that they usually only try to cater to fans of the games... so in order to actually become a decent movie, it has to 1. be based on a game with an interesting enough plot to hold its own as a movie, and 2. be made to appeal to a GENERAL audience, not just nerdy teenagers/gamer types.

That's why Silent Hill, Resident Evil, Tomb Raider, House of the Dead, and Alone in the Dark were all considered mediocre if not horrible. What are Resident Evil, Silent Hill, House of the Dead, and Alone in the Dark but just more B horror movies?

And the fact that Tomb Raider was made as a movie is just offensive to George Lucas and Steven Spielberg; Lara Croft is practically a female Indiana Jones, for pete's sake.
