At least the Battleship movie is directed by somebody respectable, Peter Berg (I am willing to forget Hancock), and stars Taylor Kitsch aka Tim Riggins. Yum.

Seeing Tin Tin, I adored the TV series that stuck with the original to such a degree that images were practically transposed directly from the albums to the screen, go from its iconic Herge animation, that made it so unique in the first place, to uncanny valley motion capture animation. It is going to be hard for me to look beyond the film's aesthetic and judge the film on its own merits. This despite the fact a lot of people I like in the movie industry are apart of the film's creative team. I know Herge himself gave Spielberg his okay to do a Tin Tin movie but did he foresee motion-capture animation?

And Philip Seymour Hoffman in

OTHELLO: No, Not That One - The Movie!

Hey, at least CLUE has a bit of a possible storyline to work with.

---

I think the Game of Life would be a good one.

Also Candyland.

---

Not only has it been done, apparently they're doing it again!

Does anybody remember the board game Which Witch?

That would make a good movie.

Just remember that It's a Wonderful Life started as a Christmas card. So did South Park for that matter. A video Christmas card (on VHS, no less).

I'm actually surprised no one's thought to do MYSTERY DATE.

Or is that too obvious?

---

Double bill:

Great..then it'll be:

"Pong: the Motion Picture"

I also saw they're making a film out of the Atari game Missile Command. Seriously.

I doubt anybody remembers this, but when the very first Atari 2600 was lanched, it included a game called Outer Space. There were two game variations included. One was as if you were in the cockpit of a space ship and you dodged oncoming asteroids. The other was my favorite. It was a two player game where one person was a lunar lander and the other person was a moon. The lunar lander had to land on the moon and fire its jets to receive a point. Sort if like playing tag. But the moon always moved more slowly, so there really was no possibility of escape.

I could get into a film about that. The slow moon inable of escaping its fate of mankind's interstellar flatulance.

The only thing worse would be Smurf The Musical

I didn't want to waste money to see this at the cinema so I watched part of it online and couldn't stand hearing Katy Perry do voice-over. It was the worst.
