I think Smash Bro and SUPER had the best ideas.
What about Short Circuit? Wouldn't that be a fun game? You could get to fight the other robots who all act and sound like 3 stooges. Or even a updated 3 stooges game would be cool too.
Actually there is 1 movie franchise I would *love* to see made into a *good* video game, well they had a game back in the 80's and I liked it just cuz it was based on my favorite movie franchise of all time, and that is A Nightmare on Elm Street. But what I want is a real scary Resident Evil type game that takes place in and out of the dream world. Something kinda like Eternal Darkness but with Freddy Kruger, but it has to be gory. I was hoping after Freddy vs Jason came out it would spark more interest in the Nightmare series, now I have to hope the new Nightmare movie will do a better job.
I actually like this idea. They could use style from the Hook-Man version of RE4. Not sure how you could actually combat Freddy though since no one ever really puts up a fight against him, most people just die, and a lucky few are lucky enough to keep escaping until they figured out a way to "kill" him at the end.
However if they made it into a Freddy Vs Jason type game... I could see Jason being like the Resident Evil's Nemesis character, showing up periodically to kill you while you can either run away or use up most of your ammo to put him down for a short time, meanwhile your "sleep" meter slowly drains and, like the insanity meter, more and more paranormal things (caused by Freddy) begin to happen (thus creating more enemies to try and kill you). There can be anti-sleeping pills strewn about the mansion but instead of being able to collect them they'll be an old-school video game item where you just walk over and and it gets used automatically, so you have to decide 'ok, should i use this now and keep freddy off my back or save it for later when i really need it' to creat even more tension for the player.
Hell to make it feel more like a freddy/jason movie you can control 5 different teens, several of which MUST get killed in the most gruesome way possible in order to progress. It doesnt have to be one single character that survives at the end either, the story can change accordingly for more replay value.

Ever think up something cool like that, then get sad you'll never see it done??? Its a bummer. F*ck you Rat for making me dream
That last parts a joke, don't go gettin offended
