Now, there seems to be a change to the formulaic trends set before, as Mortal Kombat: Legacy seems to be having quite the success, as the creators seem to want to be more honest and outright about taking portions of the games and putting them in more alternate/realistic situations, thus allowing the fans to appreciate the honesty and accepting the series for what it is.
On the other end of the spectrum is obviously what I mentioned earlier with the Uncharted movie. Which still hammers in the point that these false-intentioned individuals that publicly believe the fans to NOT know they want in these kinds of films need to be taken off these projects immediately.
You would think that SONY, of all companies, would be making better judgement calls on such a project, but this just proves the point that better communication between the creators of the gaming I.P. and the film adapters should be MANDATORY!

Hollywood Needs to Wake Up! Part 1.
When David O'Russell called Uncharted 2 a "Real Time Strategy" game that's about "Family", and aural gunshot was was fired at every fan of this franchise of video games... followed by the sky turning black.
Ever since Super Mario Bros., hardcore fans of their favorite gaming I.P.'s have been devastated by the garbage churned out by those wanting to make a quick buck, and the false claims of actually playing these enough to see what details they need. It hurts us--the actual fans, as we really wanted to see our favorite characters and components fully realised on the silver screen.
So far, only the fans themselves have accomplished what seems impossible to Hollywood at the moment, with great non-profit flicks like Metal Gear Solid: Philanthropy and the spectacular 3 minute short, Street Fighter: Legacy, which might get the creators a T.V. deal in the future.
