the name should explain everything. We all know video game movies have been nothing but awesome, but if you had the chance to pick the game, director, and lead actor(s) then who/what would you choose?

For some reason I thought of ICO directed by Michel Gondry. Not sure who should act. Maybe it would be their debut performance. They should be relatively unknown.
 
I doubt it could ever be successfully converted to film though. It would suck.

Shadow of the Collosus, Peter Jackson (with a catch... the move has to be under 2 hours!), the main actor would probably be unknown. In my head, I can see the script... and it works, but I'm pretty sure the movie wouldn't turn out right.

From Whoever directed Book of Eli (it had nice cinematography) comes... 

  I made this a loooong time ago just to be silly, but I think I would replace Ben with Edward Norton or Liam Neeson for the LOLs.

No More Heroes, Guy Ritchie, a younger Jake Gyllenhaal (around Donnie Darko and Bubble Boy Age). I can think of a few other good leads, but he's the only one that I know the name.

Deadly Premonition!  
 
Director: Christopher Nolan - He can do action and make it thought provoking. 
 
Not sure about actors. York should be played by somebody who can act really goofy and weird, but also seem totally serious whilst doing it. And be able to grow a beard in real time. I can't really think of anyone specific though (perhaps a young and up and coming actor would be best).

Leisure Suit Larry  
 
Dir. by Judd Apatow 
Starring (who else?) Steve Carrell. 
 
Then again, 40 Year Old Virgin is pretty much as close as I'd like to get to a LSL movie, so there you go - it practically already happened.   Still, no one does lovable losers quite like Apatow, and I loved their work together, so I wouldn't mind seeing 'em team up again with one of my favorite games.

I will forever disagree with you. The Hellboy movies would have been total garbage if not for his style (and I love me some Hellboy). 
 
Also he is way better a director than Tim Burton has ever been. Don't get me wrong I love Beetlejuice and A Nightmare Before Christmas certainly took up a lot of my childhood, but he is all about his movies just being creepy, that's all he has. del Toro has a great style that he delivers without the use (or primary use anyway) of CG.

I'm not a giant fan either I just tried to think of a badass chick off the top of my head and she seemed to fit the part better than Milla Jovovich :P
