If you were to make a list of the top video games you'd most want to see as movies (which we did), chances are BioShock would be in the mix (which we also included). Some fans will recall that one film adaptation was in the works back in 2008, but ultimately fizzled out and is now officially dead.

It's not easy being Juan Carlos Fresnadillo, and we mean that sarcastically. The '28 Days Later' director has been handed every other major remake or adapted property from here to kingdom come. Thankfully and or sadly, whichever you choose, that also means that he can't take on every project that goes his way. He's done this before with 'The Crow' and is now taking similar action to another produc
