I know lots of games that would make a good movie. Damn, imagine a Unreal movie or a Warhammer40k movie(a high budget one). But at the same time I kinda don't want them to be movies because you know hollywood is going to **** up a perfect story. :rolleyes:

Am I the only one who thinks killing floor should be a moive?

I mean the plot could span off into hundreds of different directions, like same story different characters points of view.

And at the end they all meet up to do a last stand sort of thing.

I think that would be f**king epic! :D :D:D:D:D

Arkham.
Well i dont think is a good idea at all, KF doesnt have any plot actually and it only consists in killing millions of zeds over and over again, which is awesome in a game but it must be so damn boring to watch for 90 mins.
(Resident Evil movies anyone?)

Maybe Bioshock can be an interesting concept for a movie, but KF... i dont think so.

Just my opinion.

Let's not forget that even games with intricate plots rarely make good movies either.

*Glares at Doom* Ok doom may not have the most intricate plot, it was birthed as a mob shooter, but you make a movie about it and remove hell and make the "demons" into genetic experiments. Why. :(

Depends on the script, director, actors and budget.

A notice: comedian Mr. Bean erned his biggest income from making a movie and not from his TV-series, etc..

A possible Killing Floor-movie should be actionoriented instead of plain gore or horror, like the Alien-movies.

Think there should be a "solo story game mode" before there would be a movie made :)

EDIT: that had been great for a killingfloor 2. having now a solo game story. or a coop game since this is a multiplayer after all :p

KF would have been awesome as one of those films directed by Sam Raimi, 20 years ago on a shoestring budget with awesome camerawork, tons of over the top gore and witty one-liners.

Note sure Bruce Campbell could do a decent British accent, but who knows for certain.

Well I like Gregs concept the most, but not before someone does a decent Devil May Cry movie. ;)

And if so, we need Michael Clarke Duncan as the Fleshpound.

I think it could work. Granted, it would have to be lovingly crafted in the hands of a true fan/player of the game but I could definitly see it happening. Some non-canon plot elements would have to be introduced, tho (Like maybe have Patrick stay in the Biolabs, not wandering like he appears to do in the game?).

You haven't even tried looking for the plot to KF have you? :(

Yeah, that's exactly what I've been thinking all this time. Look at the Resident Evil movies for example - they're good for instant action-movie gratification that comes in 90 minute long doses, but that's it, aside from that, they're utter crap. Killing Floor is actually a pretty damn rich universe that would take a long saga to explore, and even then things are likely to be left untouched. Take Lord of the Rings or Star Wars for example. If KF is going to have a story in any medium, it'd have to be a set of books, and then god knows what, but a regular movie is just not going to cut it.
