I totally missed House Of The Dead. Never even heard of it. But it has Tyron Leitso! Did you see it? Is it worth suffering through for his hotness? Does his ass ring?
I saw it. He plays a gun-wielding underwear model with a fake British accent who keeps his clothes buttoned up to the collar at all times. Also, the movie features footage from the video game it's based on intercut with the action scenes, and serving as transitions from one scene to the next. And Clint Howard. And Jürgen Prochnow as Captain Kirk.
Everyone involved in making this movie should die horribly. Except Tyron, who should merely be forced to watch it repeatedly as punishment/aversion therapy.
Oh, and let's not forget Double Dragon and Wing Commander
No, please, let's. As a long-time fan of the WC games, that movie was seriously depressing. We went in order to show fan solidarity, but we felt fairly betrayed by the crappiness. If that's a Kilrathi, I'll eat my hat.

The best part was when they got real quiet cause they thought the spaceship passing above them might hear them.
P-C, you're getting mixed up with
House of 1000 Corpses.
Movies-in-the-works based on video games also include Farcry, Bloodrayne and Doom.
eta: Uwe Boll directed
House of the Dead.
He's also directed the
Alone in the Dark
movie, plus he's currently directing the
Bloodrayne
movie and is slated to direct the
Farcry
movie. If the reviews of
House of the Dead
are to be believed, it doesn't bode well for any of them.
And there's that imminent Doom movie.
Which in all likelihood would also be a correct description with "imminent Doom" hyphenated. Why do the studios choose the video games that have the most tenuous and of-secondary-importance stories to base movies on?
Oh, right the 'spolsions.
But...Karl Urban. And The Rock.
Yeah, it's gonna suck.
What, game-wise, sets Doom aside from any other first-person-shooter games? I mean, aside from the fame of the game, why pick that one? Is there anything we have to worry about them
actually
translating to screen? What are you going to carry through, except for shooting people, and you don't need a joystick for that.

Doom is one of the most profitable video games of all time, and Hollywood wants a some of the BIG PILES OF MONEY that it's earned?
