They did on my thread, but it was deleted

I feel the same way as everybody else. As soon as I heard this is was VERY disappointed. What a shame. Brett should go away. Forever.

[Trogdor2010]

I know some are going to be bothered by the fact of some "another game to movie" thread, if fact I'm not really interested in the movie itself, but It just hit me and got myself thinking of who would actually be the perfect director for something like a "God of War" movie, that would interest me in watching it and that would be...

Terry Zwigoff! (Crumb, Ghost World, Bad Santa)

The material is perfect for him, as the Character Kratos, is a as disturbed as he is violent and angry. Zwigoff always has a sympathy for the pathetic or insane. The thing that might turn off some is how he would interpret the violence, but I don't think he would tone it down.

Pretty sure God of War would be terrible movie no matter who directed it. The story is over and it would be a bad idea to make a movie of what we already know happened...

[SkillzthatKillz]

it would be a cool movie if it was done properly with a big budget, but that won't happen so it would probably suck

[EricJ]

Which is why they turned the Clash of the Titans remake into it instead, so they could pretend they were making the GoW war movie for real...

[Kirk Out]

zack freaking snyder

[Batman1980]

Guillermo Del Toro would be my #1 choice.

So going by that logic then no movie based on books should be made. A GOW movie would be awesome if done right and given enough money.

WRONG, going by that logic no movies based on games should be made.

[Al_The_Strange]

I think any of these guys would be awesome (no particular order):
Christopher Nolan
Zack Snyder
The Watchowski Bros
Robert Rodriguez
Guillermo Del Toro
Peter Jackson
Michael Bay

Might be intruiged by:
James Cameron
Steven Spielberg
Timur Bekmambetov
John Woo (so long as it's along the same lines as "Red Cliff" not "MI2")
Bryan Singer
JJ Abrams
Martin Campbell

Absolutely would not want:
Roland Emmerich
Uwe Boll (like I even need to mention him )

what you would need is to combine Robert Rodriguez and Peter Jackson
not Zack Snyder, he's ruin one treasured franchise i dont need him to do another one

Absolutely would not want:
Paul W.S Anderson

[Foggy]

A GOW movie would suck no matter what, it's a lose lose situation.

Big Budget means a very low chance at it's R-Rating
R-Rating equals no big amount of money.

[,deeii]

Uwe Boll, he already made some great game movies.

Thats the problem with most directors, just like you said "Oh, we already know whats gonna happen next"

So what?

If you wanna change some stuff around its cool, but changing stuff to where you don't want people to know whats gonna happen next or make it different or whatever, you are just gonna end up messing it up. Look at Resident Evil for example, Anderson didn't want everyone to know what was gonna happen next and do it different and now we don't even know wtf is going on, because It has nothing to do with Resident Evil. Its seems like they're just some action movies with Resident Evil cameos. Movies would've been a million times better if they would've just followed the games. The main reason people want to see a game-to-movie is to watch a movie of a game we like! not to go in not knowing whats gonna happen next "during the entire movie" because if thats the case then we really aint watching a movie of a game that we like.
