Also they're trying to make a monopoly movie as well.[/QUOTE] That trailer was awesome but I don't think 90 minutes of ships shooting at each other make for a good movie, probably why they stuck some cliche plot line(Movie star loves some hot girl but that girl's parents hate his guts so he has to slowly win their trust)in it. Shit like this should just stay in trailer format, kinda like the Minesweeper parody trailer, it's awesome but would be boring in full length.
[QUOTE=postal;34501047] [B]Also they're trying to make a monopoly movie as well.[/B][/QUOTE] A movie where a sentient shoe, dog, and car compete to see who's the bigger ass, until they all say 'screw it' and stop playing? Hell, I'd watch it.

I dunno, Candyland might work as a movie if they take a fun, goofy tone with it like an 80's fantasy mo- [QUOTE]Adam Sandler[/QUOTE] ...Never mind.
But I like Adam Sandler. His films have a light hearted sense of humour, which is really nice. I mean, can anyone here honestly say that Click was a bad movie?
His problem is, he can write sophomoric humor really well, and he can write heartwarming really well, but he insists on mixing the two, and it never works. Can you honestly say Click needed to have an interlude in Sandler's heartfelt conversation with his wife wherein his dog fucks a pillow?
[B]WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY [/B] [I]FUCK[/I]. Okay it's just a boardgame so they have to start from scratch. Nothing to ruin here, nothing to ruin at all. :suicide:

On a relatively related note, Click was one of the few movies that have made me cry. Up there with only The Bucket List, Marley and Me and possibly Titanic.
Board games into movies? Wasn't this a joke topic a few years ago?
Clue was the best fucking movie, so I'm optimistic. [editline]2nd February 2012[/editline] [img]http://t3.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTbVWMB9U_jk57YOP0Ri7IsZFe2nKN6kWG6SRv58pZ8kl0YW5xB5-r2ez_E4A[/img]
He should do movies like "Click" again and then his movies may be more interesting.
[QUOTE=ewitwins;34501976]Not gonna lie, the "Battleship" movie actually looks pretty sick.[/QUOTE] before someone mentioned that it was based on Battleships, I thought it looked like a fun no brainer action film. now I just can't stop thinking about how damn stupid the whole thing is the one good thing about that trailer is the sound of the battleship firing. I remember hearing battleships in civ 4 and 5 making that sound, and it's orgasmic.
jumanji was probably the only good 'board game' movie. But then again its fictional.
Jumanji and Clue, you mean.
You guys are forgetting the Dungeons and Dragons movie.

And now we're going to have to put up with this shit being released. Fuck it. [IMG]http://i43.tinypic.com/10nuz4z.jpg[/IMG]
Hasbro trying to turn their franchises into a movie. I'm surprise they haven't made a new My Little Pony movie. YET
Pass on Candyland, but Im definitely going to see Battleship. Sometimes I just want to see things blow up for absolutely no reason. [QUOTE=Electrocuter;34502435]Doom couldn't even follow the damn game it was based on and the game is pretty much just shooting shit which I'd expect Hollywood to be good at.[/QUOTE] Best part was the first person segment. All 5 or so minutes of it.

It was three times as bad as Click was good, so that makes Adam Sandler a piece of shit in my book.
