1. Ratchet & Clank
Uh-oh. This one could end badly. Ratchet & Clank, arguably one of the most entertaining franchises to grace last-gen consoles (and probably one of the out-and-out best button-mashers on the PS2), on the big screen? Best not bet too many bolts on this one. Sure, it had stellar stories and great gameplay but, well, thats sort of what made it great. The gameplay. In-game cut-scenes were undeniably brilliant, but the cement to the mini-movie mortar was the ability to play out the action. Sitting for 90 minutes of extended cut-scene, however sarcastically matter-of-fact Clank can be, is a less than thrilling prospect. See, R&C had that killer combo of cartoon-styling and adult humour, a match made in heaven thats almost definitely not going to transfer to Hollywoods adaptation. Oh, a video game! Yippee! Kids love those. Lets make it a quirky and fun joke-a-thon. Better still, lets bring in some big-name voice actors who dont know Quark from Drek! Please, dont. Still, at theres Suicide Squad to look forward to. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bvWRilQ9lnI Do you agree with this article? Share your own suggestions below in the comments thread.

Happy-snapping worldly wordsmith. In between snapping street shots, tapping out stellar prose and having more hair-brained ideas than a barber with a bachelor's in business, you'll find him fumbling with the latest fitness fads and dreaming of a debut in F1 (he's a late bloomer, OK?).
