    Trivial Pursuit – oh wait, I think Forrest Gump may have been based on that

    This article was hilarious! Although, being the eternal optimist, I think anything is possible. Even successfully movies based on dorky kid games. Possible though HIGHLY, HIGHLY, HIGHLY, HIGHLY, HIGHLY, HIGHLY, HIGHLY, HIGHLY, HIGHLY, HIGH– (you get the picture) improbable.

    Candy Land would only work as a movie (MAYBE) if they got someone like Tim Burton to direct it. I’m also surprised that Battelship hasnt been made into a movie (although I am kinda excited about GI Joe!)

    a hungry hippos movie would be good if they did it in a TMNT style or like the spoof on robot chicken

    Shouldn’t there be a 4th person to voice another hippo? There are 3 listed & 4 in the game….
