Video game movies, despite their history of critical failure, are becoming more common as Hollywood looks to popular properties to turn into major releases. This year saw the release of Warcraft, based on the popular video game series. An Assassin's Creed movie will release this December, itself based on another popular series of games. That's just from this year. The Resident Evil films have been savaged by critics, but have continued to find success with audiences despite the thrashing.

The Fruit Ninja license was acquired by New Line Cinema, with plans for a live-action family comedy based on the popular cell phone app. We're intrigued to see what this turns into.
