I agree that a great movie could be made from any source, but I can't see the storylines of WC/SC/D making movies based on what is given. They would probably have to do a major FF:TSW kind of overhaul (place the setting on Earth, use an original story). I would be interested in seeing a movie with 3 different sides to it with alien races fighting over control of the galaxy or something, but not all of america would want to see that, and that is a major issue. Final Fantasy had a huge bunch of changes between the games and the movie, and Tomb Raider had an original story with new characters. Diablo may have great cutscenes, but how would that translate into a profitable feature length film?
I heard that they are not making a movie of WC or SC (one of them) but rather making a DVD with CG that tells the story of the game. That might end up being a good purchase, but it targets a small audience (or at least smaller than many big name movies) and might not make much money. This is a rumor I heard, dunno if its true.
