Sib,
what we are trying to say here is that by their very nature video games *lack* the material that makes a good movie. It does not matter *who* is making them , it could be Elvis reincarnated, the man on the moon, my nutjob mother-in-law, or Mickey Mouse. The end result would *still* be the same.
Also, I have always been of this view, long before I ever even heard of Boll, so there's no stereotyping going on here.
Simply put >>
video games lack plot, they lack in-depth characterization, they lack structure. They do *not* translate to movies. It just is not possible.
