Well another great game that will be butchered on the big screen. Why can't you just leave video games alont Hollywood or at least find people who have played the games to make a decent movie.

It's always the same: The director wants to make a "great master piece", so he change/adapt the movie to what he thinks it's best to surprise us all showing us something that we can't predict if we've played the game. But, he has never played the game and ends up making something entirely different from what we all know and love.
Hay can´t this people just make a copy of the original story? The best comic adaptation movie I've seen is Sin City, and you know why? Because they use the damn comic dialogs as the script and the panels as the storyboard.

If they make Dracula sparkle and Alucard into a prissy pretty boy, ugh.

Can someone good make a video game adaptation? Please? Even halfway decent? I mean if we can get Whedon to write the Avengers movie, and we can get the cast of Madmen in LA Noire, and if we can get Robin Williams to do a commercial for a Nintendo game, I don't think video game is such a niche part of entertainment that we can't find people who don't suck to make these movies.

Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmm...... Yay? _{now about that mgs movie...}

You know, I really wish that Valve went all-in on their idea to create a Half-Life movie. At least we would get a good, if not great, video game movie.

@Koto would you cry tears of blood?

DIE, MONSTER! YOU DON'T BELONG IN THIS WORLD! whips the very idea

It was not by my hand that I am once again given flesh. >:3

You steal movie-goers' souls, and inflate the ticket prices with RealD 3D!

Perhaps the same could be said of all cinemas...

Anyone else notice that the wii u ad up there had the wrong date on it.

The guy behind the first 2 Spider-Man films is doing the Metal Gear Solid movie, so maybe that one will turn out okay.

I'ld like to see a Castlevania movie. series is pretty cool, you'd think a movie like that they couldn't screw up, maybe? :S

@hydeks yeah, super Mario bros is cool too, they can't screw that up either, can they? :3

Ideas for Hollywood:

Paperboy (just watched the trailer)
Devil World
Donkey Kong Jr. Math
Punch-Out (A Nintendo blaxploitation film)
Big Rigs (winner of the Razzies)

Lots of movies with werewolves are crap which is sad because I love werewolves. This one has a werewolf, plus it's adapted from a video game. That's an instant fail right there. I normally watch a movie before I completely deride it though so I can't say anything until I watch this.

W.S. Anderson? Noooooooooooo! And he's adapting a game I actually care about this time!
Moviebob said it best:

"Die Hard with Dracula."

You don't need to do any more than that.

Never confuse Paul W.S. "The Hack" Anderson with Paul "The Genius" Thomas Anderson.

Or Wes "Eeyore" Anderson.

Or Thomas "Neo" Anderson.
He knows kung-fu.

id watch it but it would be nice if they could put in all the random little enemies, thats one of the reasons its one of my favorite series

I think it'll be a bit hapless fun tbh. I thought the resident evil films were ok as I didn't associate them with the games. It's all fun and games really and to be taken seriously =)

@Philip_J_Reed I love Wes Anderson!

Werewolves? I'm sorry but I can't think of any of the Castlevania games with a werewolf in it... well at least I haven't played anything since it went 3D. Still... really? That sounds too much like Van Helsing ho ho ho!

@LavaTwilight Look at the two titles for N64, they're in 3D but they are good.

Plus, at least it's not Uwe Boll.

lol

THIS SUMMER YOU MIGHT AS WELL DO SOMETHING MORE FUN THEN WATCH THIS TRIPE, YES REALLY!

CASTLEVANIA: OVERDRIVE

Rated T

"However, is now seems..." Ummm, someone didn't spellcheck before posting their article

We already had a Castlevania movie way back in the early 2000's,it was called,Van Helsing

Maybe I'm the only one excited about this hahaha

they should make a portal movie

They should make an original movie.
App developers should make an original app.

@LavaTwilight There's a werewolf boss in Rondo of Blood, and various enemies in Simon's Quest, Lords of Shadow, Legacy of Darkness (even the cover had a werewolf on it and he's playable), Castlevania 64, all the DS games, Symphony of the Night, and Castlevania: The Arcade. The cancelled 'Resurrection' also had werewolves.

So yes, there's lots of werewolves in Castlevania.

THERE IS a Castlevania movie already!

It's Called Van Helsing, and it's great.

Van Helsing, lol. I actually just watched that again since I was watching the Underworld movies again (only movies Kate Beckinsale seems to have ever been in) and I hate to say that I actually enjoyed it this time. His sidekick monk is still the best part though, that and the painting/mirror they walk through to get to Drac's castle. Generally though, they still tried to cram way too many monster movies into one with Van Helsing.
Sadly I have to doubt that an official Castlevania movie could ever be even that good. They had better pick a Castlevania game and make a movie out of that specifically (hello Symphony of the Night), not write some crap script that is nothing like Castlevania at all, but they won't do that sad.

VH isn't that great, but it sure had awesome looking werewolves though. I generally don't like them in movies as they always look like crap, such as the mutated rat thing in Harry Potter.

@LavaTwilight There have been werewolves in every Castlevania game I've ever played, including the first one ever made. I'm not sure if you even know what Castlevania is.

Anyway, color me skeptical for this one. On the one hand, I'm sure people have learned the lesson and stopped giving video game movies rights to Uwe Boll. On the other hand, every time I think Hollywood can't make anything more stupid, they surprise me by actually doing it. I shouldn't be surprised anymore, but they always catch me off-guard.

if the director from re is doin this this gonna b and we kno milla jovovich already has a guaranteed unknown main heroine character

Let me guess, its going to be over the top action that has nothing to do with the source material its based on and another made up female character for his wife to play!!! Yea, make this movie and the whole franchise will be going to hell in a handbag, just look at the RE movies!!!

@Assassin87 lord of shadows already ruined series this would just put that final nail into coffin

@rockman_zero thats true, i didnt like that game either! But I wander if the movie had actual director thats knows wut hes doin, it might be decent.
