FHM Sweden|March 2023
With the recent release of The Last of Us, the shackles of bad video game to live action adaptations has been firmly shattered, proving that in the right hands a great video game can become a great series or movie. However, this is a very rare case indeed, as numerous attempts to bring a video game to the screen have been attempted and most of them have failed spectacularly. Here are six of the worst offenders when it comes to bad video game adaptations. 
THE SIX WORST GAMES-TO-MOVIE ADAPTATIONS EVER!
 

Super Mario Bros 

One of the first attempts to bring a popular gaming franchise to the screen was the dismal 1993 Super Mario Bros movie. The game itself is an ultra-colorful platformer seeing Mario, an Italian plumber run through colorful worlds on his way to save a princess. The movie decided to ignore all of the source material and rather create a dystopian future ruled by lizards and casting Bob Hoskins and John Leguizamo as Mario and Luigi.

The problem with the casting was neither of them was Italian, they didn’t look like brothers and zero attempts were made to make them even closely resemble the iconic plumber brothers. It is still baffling to this day how they could get it so wrong, from the story, the tone, and the casting, everything about the Super Mario Bros movies was wrong. Clearly, Nintendo had very little to do with this abomination and it was a massive flop at the box office. Sadly this would set the scene for much worse to come down the line.
