I'm sure that next Great movie will be a BAD game again.
But i'm sure that there will be A GOOD GAME from A GOOD MOVIE! If it is made by 3rd party developers.
But One think I want to see to be done, a bad movie to a Good game. Halleluja! That shall be the Last sign before the Hell freezes over and Satan get idea to get new House on earth...

Also Batman Returns on the Snes and Aladdin for Snes and Genesis.
They exist, though they are exceedingly rare. In fact, I can only think of two: AvP, which was born from the Alien and Predator movies (and not from the very horrible AvP movies), and Riddick. Both are miles ahead of the movies.
I have to argue no, both from game to movie and movie to game
The selling point of a game is constant entertainment. Very few games have a deep storyline, and those that do are ridiculed for having too many cutscenes (see MGS4). The difficult thing in gaming is to keep the spaztic XBOX live gmaer from discarding your production because you are trying to develop a plot, which means that he hasn't blown someone up in over five seconds.
Movies, on the other hand, are all about plot. Examine storylines from games, halo for example. All in all, it was a decent game. But think of the movie: "Here we have someone who is essentially a wealking tank, can take out entire armies of baddies on his own. He's gonna walk down linear corridors and kill everything in his path. And for the heck of it, we'll try to make a plot." Sorry, not gonna work.
The only successes are games LOOSELY based off of movies. and vice versa. For example the Star Wars games. Very few of them are scene for scene taken from the movies. George Lucas created a GALAXY, and set down some basic rules for it. Game developers took those rules and invented from them, resulting in success.

Wolverine Origins or whatever was pretty good, but too short and linear.
Goldeneye is usually hailed as one of the greatest games ever.
Star Wars usually has decent games.
The Lord of the Rings games weren't too bad either.

As long as we have capitalism, finding good movie-based games will be extremely difficult because their main purpose is to cash in on a movie's success and not to actually be good.
I will probably cop crap for this, but Iron man.
Awesome film, and I enjoyed the ps3 adaption of it.
I've always wanted to play as iron man (properly) and now I can.
The game itself barely tied in with the film at all, but still, I found it enjoyable.
