Yea, I think the movie structure of this summer will be:

Mr. Mrs. Smith, Batman Begins, War of the Worlds, The Island, Wedding Crashers, Stealth and Dukes of Hazzard (Fantastic 4 sucked).

The Hunter’s servants held the dark green gem,
They worshiped it as the Hunter’s Eye,
A Helm of silver-white was forged by them,
And a prophecy that murderers would one day die,
Upon the brow of Hunter’s Helm was set the Eye,
Wars and battles were fought by elves and men,
And the Eye was deemed too powerful for the open sky,
Tombs were built within the Deep, the Eye was carried to one of ten,
And there, buried for many years it shall remain,
Until the day its power, the Hunter’s Son shall gain.

Of course, Halo movie right now is more of a project than a movie. On one hand MS already invested a million into the script, on the other it hasn't even been picked up by a studio yet. The movie Alexander from last year was actually in development for almost 15 years, so just because there's plans for a Halo movie and some money has been put into it yet, it doesn't mean it will happen (but I'm guessing, if a studio picked up Doom, someone's bound to pick up Halo).

Mmm... any film about Thermopylae sparks my interest. :) Has it been put to film before? (I believe I searched IMDB a while back, but turned up nothing)

Doom looks uber-lame. :) Seriously, the movie looks like a complete rip-off of the outstanding "Aliens."

The adaptions from other media isn't lame IMO -- I like to see books (Lord of the Rings, for example) in film form. :)

As for remakes, that's hit or miss, I think. I recently saw the "Flight of the Phoenix" remake and hated it. ;)

The only adaptation from game to film that I have seen is Resident Evil, but IMO they blew it, b/c the film was nothing like the game.
