has anyone wondered why almost every movie based off a game has been a flop? Its because everytime some asshole in hollywood tries to "give it his own spin". You don't shoot  the horse you rode in on, and you don't pg a script that demands killing monsters. SOME MOVIES ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO BE FOR KIDS, STOP TRYING TO MAKE THEM "SUITABLE" FOR THEM. I don't know about ya'll but as a grown man i pay my money to see ass-kicking not dry, drab "overly stacked special effects" and crapy music in the back ground cause its "hip". Some of the best movies used very little special effects and alot of suspence. a really good director knows how to create a effective marriage of the two. i'm so sick and tired of directors taking the lazy approach and just creating a monster in a comp. i can tell when one is CG and the physically built prop one's have so much more "realism" to them. obviously the comp has been a effective tool, but too many movies use too kuch special effects in cg to compensate for crappy scripts, crappy acting, and crappy directing.
