I don't know about a huge effect budget, I've got like a grand to spare; but I do work at a country club, maybe I could get some investors.

I say the guy from bourne supremacy would play a good roll to me, but then again i could be wrong
I'm not a big fan of the remembering people names only faces xD

Drake is supposed to only be in his late 20s in the show. Although I like Jeremy renner, I think he's too old for the part. As far as the supernatural guy goes, I'm on the fence. I did like him in dark angel though.

Lol age is only just a number that's what make-up is for make people look younger and stuff xD
Also i understand what you saying he probably would make a good Drake

They are almost the same person.

They actually do almost a like facial feature and everything O_O
Kinda creepy though to be honest because i seen alot of people that looks like a character off a character of a video game, animal, cartoon shows, and other xD

For some reason I can't see the first pic but I'm assuming its the jennson guy. I would prefer less accurate looks for more accurate personality and mannerisms. I believe the lady that created the character said she modeled h after Nathan fillion. So there you go. Also, Nolan north (voice actor of drake) already established the part and looks a hell of a lot like drake anyway. He totally could do it. But again it's the age thing. I know I'm being a bit neurotic, but I'm just a huge fan of the games and I don't want the movies to be anything other than a direct copy of the game. Or we will end up with such garbage as the resident evil movies, doom, etc.

I couldn't see it either until i quoted him and went to the link he had xD I'm not going to live the Resident evil movie was actually good though it wasn't as bad as Dragon Ball Evolution. I kinda want to see Devil May Cry movie O_O

I'm with you on the quality. I've played all three of them, and the story is amazing and so much could be done with the movies.

Nathan Fillion is too old, an while he's got the attitude for it, the look is a little off.

I think nolan is really far off from the look, but he does have some of the mannerisms.

Nolan:

Nathan is the model for the character. And yes. As of now is too old. Nolan has all of the mannerisms since he not only voiced the character but also did the motion capture. So Nolan IS Drake. Again just too old.

Did you see that "my name is earl" show? With their dopplegangers? Or the "How I met your mother" Dopplegangers? Great episodes.

LMAO i'm not going to lie sounds like a funny show xD
My name is earl right? because if so i'm go check it out.
At first i thought you was making fun of someone lol

I didn't ever get into either of those shows.

This thread kinda got hijacked by me. But either way. I just love the uncharted games so much that I figure I'm gonna end up being pissed because they are going to cast a name, not an actor to fit the part and completely ruin the franchise. These games are just to good to be turned into a crap movie by poor casting and a lame-ass story.

Why don't you direct the movie only way you can get the job done xD
Oh the cool i would totally do it if it was me and i found a way to

maybe in 5 years when they actually get around to producing it, there will be someone out there who fits the role perfectly.

not much of a hijack though, seeing as how the thread is about "movie adaptions of games"

There's no reason for me to direct. I want it to be the games turned directly into a movie. It is all already there. Script, characters, scenes. All they have to do is make a live-action version of the game. I just know that they will end up jacking it up in someway.

It's hollywood, of course they will, drake will probably be smoking the entire movie, the bad guys will have some kind of hookers/strippers that fall in love with drake or some stupid s**t. They'll all be driving BMW's and it'll take place in the middle of new york city.

And I will be forever pissed

oh you know who else would be good,the guy from vertical limit or he was robin in a batman movie, and I think he was in something else, like max payne or something:

Chris O'Donnell could totally pull it off.

Oh god no. That would be terrible. No amount of anything can make up for his involvement in batman forever.

ah, you're gonna hold that over his head forever? That's hilarious. If you could look past those tights though.

Yes. Yes I am.

As of have stated before, and I even made a commentary on it, I HATE HOLLYWOOD! I hate it when hollywood makes remakes, adaptations, and too many sequels. So needless to say, I have not enjoyed any video game adaptations.
