This could be an epic movie, atleast Uwe Boll won't get a hold of it

A movie based on a video game?

Yeah, I'm sure it'll be awesome.

Verbinski to Direct BioShock Film | Game | Life from Wired.com

They're saying they will not tone down the little sisters, and will make them creepy and keep true to the game.

Well, they did hire the guy who turned an amusement park ride into one of the top grossing movies of all time... One would hope that starting with a video game instead would be at least a small step up. Hopefully they have the sense to just make one really good movie and pass on the two mediocre sequels this time.

Truth. The setting is the real star of the show in the game, so even if the acting tanks, if they get the city right this will be badass.

Bioshock's story line could potentially be a fantastic movie, if done properly. Most video games don't have anywhere near the depth or material that Bioshock does.

I had the same hopes for Wing Commander, Final Fantasy, and Silent Hill.

It was a good sci flick, but it lacked every single bit of spirit that makes Final Fantasy stories, Final Fantasy stories. Every thing. That and they had to throw in a giant rip off of FFVII bs Gaia/Cannon bs.

Considering there have been two FF movies, you should probably say "Spirits Within" when you're talking about the one that doesn't have anything to do with Final Fantasy. Because the Advent Children movie was one of, if not the most faithful game to movie translations ever. And it pretty much rocked face. Just sayin.
