The Zoolander Game ^^
Oh! Kramer Vs Kramer!

Shakespeare in Love
Back of the Box: Dress up like a transvestite and recite your favourite verses of any Shakespearean play EVER! Now it's your turn to complete the drama!

and 'Dancer in the Dark'. Simply because the graphics would suck...

I was going to say Dancer in the Dark. I can just see everyone bitching about the camera.

Shawshank Redemption.

This, the movie is my favourite of all time and it's as close as perfect i've ever seen in a movie, but it would Not be a fun game to play...

Your mission: Avoid getting cornered in the laundry room by the Sisters.

This is like shooting fish in a barrel.

The Green Mile

 

[Shath]

Mary Poppins Online.

 

[Scoooby]

Any Guy Ritchie or Tarantino film....

 

[KamachoMcSagget]

Borat. But hypotheticaly if there is a game, I imagine it to be a sandbox game.

 

[Nexus424]

Matrix... Oh wait

 

[WhiteFangofWhoa]

Home Alone... oh wait.

Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy
Titanic
A Few Good Men

The Stories of John Cheever

Yeah, I just pulled that one out of my ass; it wouldn't even make a decent Point-and-Click adventure game.

 

[MisterLillie]

HALO HALO2 HALO3

any FPS

The way a movie version of a game would be good is if it was animated or CGI

You completely missed the point of the post. It's saying what MOVIES would make bad games, not what games would make bad movies.

Probably the Transporter movies. Yeah it sounds cool, but look how the Driver games turned out (besides the first, obviously).

Sorry... It turns out I can't read...

I agree. Transporter would be garbage.

Independence Day.
Day after tomorrow.

 

[GonzoGamer]

For Coffee & Cigarettes, I'd like to see a game just involving the Iggy Pop & Tom Waits scene.

They could've made a good game for Crank but I guess you could just play GTA no holds barred, That's close enough. Niko even looks a little like Jason Stathem.

a fight club game would have been horrible

i know what you mean

 

[catboytrades]

Independence Day.
Day after tomorrow.

I have bad news for you. There was an independence day game. -_-
Wasn't too bad for a movie video game tie in.

Jurassic Park

Who wants to spend an entire game running away? Granted, the visuals would be amazing, but lack of weapons would get a tad boring.

I respectfully disagree, the Jurassic Park game on the SNES was all kinds of awesome.

As for a movie that would make a horrible game, I've got to go with the original Doctor Dolittle(not the Eddie Murphy remake). I could only imagine how something like that would turn out.

EDIT

Another idea just popped into my head... Willy Wonka and The Chocolate Factory.
