LOL..I don't think I've ever bought a game based on a movie.

i cant remember the last original game i played, other than the first time i played each genre many, many years ago. i guess it would have to be seaman for the dc, or maybe tail of the sun for psone. im sure even those have some other games they ripped ideas from tho.
