Even though most people would disagree I think Vin Diesel would be a good Kratos. Krato's character wouldn't take much acting skill (is kind of always pissed off and destuctive, not much depth) but would need to look strong and be somewhat tough. Vin fits that part easily. And since Peter Jackson aint doing the Hobbit I think he would do a really good job directing this one.

Metal Gear Solid also faces some challenges, mainly being who would play Snake. If you are a Metal Gear fan you know probably agree the only person who you would wan't to hear for Snake would be David Hayter. The only probelm is he really looks nothing like Snake. I think they should make a movie with CGI and have Kojima make it since he does such a good job with the games cutscenes.
On IGN.com they have a big article about God of War being turned into a movie. I think they said universal took rights to it but don't quote me on that.

The only "end of the world" movie I want to see is either another Aliens movie (based from the books, which if you haven't read them already, you should) and the rumored AVP 2 (I say rumored because I haven't seen or heard hard evidence of it). As for the GoW movie, I should find who actually put that idea into motion, and slap them silly. The story line is for a game, not a movie. And even if they did make one, it would more than likely not have much besides the Locust in common with the game.

I mostly liked it for the weapons, tools, vehicles, and Angelina Jolie in a skin-tight tee shirt.

Well. I thought that John Travolta would be a good Marcus Fenix. If you look at him in Wild Hogs witht he skull cap on. They would just have to add some make-up. And Silent Hill was a good movie if you were wondering.

The internets would not approve. You can't put Mr. Saturday Night Fever in a badass role like this. And before anyone cites Pulp Fiction, that was a fluke.

Plus I don't think Travolta will ever do another sci-fi move after Battlefield Earth.

I see your point. Well, hollywood is usually good at casting. I think they should give a new actor for DOM, so that can be their break.

I'd be willing to bet that they cast The Rock for a character in this here movie...

He's so full of energy and intense.

Well. I was thinking that. But he doesn't really look like any of the COG. But who knows.

With some make-up, I can see it happening.

Same high cheek bones, nose and lips, that's a match.
