Drake vs. Indiana Jones

So I've been playing the Uncharted 3 game and realized that this will be the closest I get to a "true" Indiana Jones sequel. And it's actually written better. Video games have actually reached a place where they have surpassed film in writing an acting. Nolan North is both a great Jones and yet his own character that I as a player care about and want to win. The humor is genuine and the banter entertaining. I just realized this is why I don't professionally review games because I will go on and on about how good an amazing game is and how horribly abysmal another is. It's pretty much preaching to the choir. Which by the way, when you think about it, is not that bad. Of course most preaching is to the choir. It's normally the congregation that the preacher relates to anyways 90% of the time. Jesus preached largely to his own Jewish community because 1, they understood what he was talking about and 2, they were the ones who had lost their way.
Anyways back to Uncharted, I think they should never make a movie of it. But since it's pretty popular these days I'm afraid they will. Some things just shouldn't be movies. Alone in the Dark anyone? No, Tomb Raider, Street Fighter, Farcry, Dungeon Siege. To be fair these are mostly faulted by Uwe Boll being a horrible director but most video games do not translate into good movies since games are fun for the interactive aspect vs. movies that rely on acting and story telling. Maybe a Monkey Island animated movie would be entertaining. But was there any question on whether House of the Dead or Doom would be despicable film? But then there are movies that don't deserve to see the silver screen but money conquers all. The Room anyone?
What about popular movie franchises that becomes games? Well since most are released beside their movie counterpart they are horribly rushed and bank on the popularity of the movie property, they of course end badly. Good video game movies are few and far between. Until the people who produce these beloved properties fully understand why they are popular in the first place we will continue to see more films that fail to live up to their properties.
