its only hope is that it's so bad it's funny (a la Conan)... so far it looks like a festering hybrid of the Jeremy Irons D&D movie, Conan, and Braveheart.
All three of the films he's directed that were based upon video games, House of the Dead (2003), Alone in the Dark (2005), and BloodRayne (2005) are listed on the IMDb Bottom 100. The other seven films he's directed, including Heart of America (2003), Blackwoods (2002) and Erste Semester, Das (1997) are not widely available in America, but have received similarly low ratings among those who have seen them.
sweet. i guess i better fandango some tickets quick before the opening night screenings sell out.
Wow. On one hand you have a fantastic cast. On the other hand you have the fact that it's based on Dungeon Siege. I'm completely and utterly split on this. I am 100% going to see this movie out of sheer, mind-numbing curiosity.
Dungeon Siege? How the hell do you base a movie on dungeon siege? That game had the most uninteresting, uttely generic storyline i've ever come across in an rpg...
As some of you said, its clearly a mess of stuff already out. The style and CGI is ripped straight from LoTR, and the "speak" would fit right into 300, or LoTR, or some other "epic" movie.
