Filming games

 

 

 If we are to believe the critics, nobody is really waiting for film adaptations of games. The incarnation of Super Mario Bros. is at best unintentionally laughable, Need For Speed put a serious dent in Aaron Paul's Breaking Bad oeuvre, and Doom destroyed more nostalgic dreams than you would like. Just take a look at Rotten Tomatoes or Metacritic. The big-budget game films have never scored a passing grade on them on average. And yet we continue to visit these films en masse, as if there is somewhere an upward trend in quality and our hopes for a good interpretation will one day be fulfilled.
