Do one on, Why live action anime movies or series fail
What’s the movie in the thumbnail?
Silent was also a pretty good one
WatchMojo.com they don’t always fail. 2 examples. 1 wreck it ralph, 2 player one. Both were awesome movies.wreck it Ralph was so good that they have made and are releasing a sequel. So, sorry. But you are way wrong.
Wreck It Ralph ,Ready Player One and Tron Are successful video games movies. If DC is smart they should do a Injustice God Among Us Animated series by Studio Mir or Greg Weismen.
only world of Warcraft was good
Firm exclude magazine long tape Internet sigh tear result elementary echo.
Mortal Kombat was pretty entertaining despite it’s PG-13 rating.
Hitman is a good movie
If i watched all the cutscenes of a game it would be a 2-3 hr movie already
Video game movies need to be made by actual fans of the game. Also I think gta could be a good film
04:05 How did he get to the smallest, when he could have gone normal size

Doom and Rachet and clank didn’t fail
