Games You Desperatly Want To See For Wii

Disney's Herc was a pretty big insult to the mythology of Herakles. It was basically their adaptation of Superman (the creators even admitted this). Kiddy downed Greek myths completely take away from the story.

#1 a complete pokemon game, same gameplay as a handheld game, but in 3 deminsions and first person, it'd be very epic

#2 pokemon snap (ya... i actually enjoyed the N64 version)

(#'s 3-6, if Rare and Nintendo ever bonded again)
#3 Banjo-Kazooie 3

#4 Donkey Kong Country Wii

#5 Diddy Kong Racing

#6 Jetforce Gemini

You know Nintendo owns rights to 4 and 5.

And the only good thing about Hercules was James Woods as Hades.

It's real tough for you to enjoy something isn't it?

It wasn't an educational movie. It wasn't advertised like one.

Why the hell should I care that cartoon Hercs mother is Hera and ****? I know ducks can't talk, but I still enjoy Daffy Duck.

Hercules wanted to entertain me and I have to say, mission accomplished.

It also had the first "Disney Princess" who used her sexuality as a weapon, and frankly, was kind of a cynical ****. Which is refreshing.

I DIDN'T SAY THAT AT ALL

DON'T YOU MEAN DONALD. THERE'S A DIFFERENCE. DONALD IS A CHARACTER OWNED BY DISNEY. THEY CAN DO ANYTHING THEY WANT WHILE STILL BEING FAITHFUL TO THE CHARACTER. THE MOVIE HERCULES DONE BY DISNEY COMPLETELY BASTARDIZED HIS CHARACTER. THAT WAS NOT HERACLES.

I LIKED IT. BUT IT STILL DOESN'T MEAN THAT THEY BASTARDIZED HERACLES. IT'S ONE OF THE FEW BASTARDIZATIONS THAT ARE ACTUALLY GOOD.

MEG DIDN'T COME OFF AS A **** TO ME IN THE MOVIE.

ya... the fact you keep saying Heracles... as is kinda proves our point...
 
o and to my knowledge... there hasnt been a single movie ever that has told the story of hercules perfectly... the killing of megera and his children, the 10 labors, and jason and the argonauts... hercules the legendary journey touched on it and was a new take on alot of things but not 100%, same with the nbs tv movie last year
 
Good god. I'm not saying it should be verbatium. All I'm saying is that Greek tales are all mature and meaningful. If you're gonna use those characters, then follow suite and use the themes properly. Yes, Hercules was a good movie, no one's saying that it wasn't. Its just that its a huge bastardization. It basically Superman, but with Disney holding the rights.

I know what you mean. I first saw Hercules in theatres when I was 6 or 7, and loved, as I still do today. However, when I started reading Greek mythology in 6th grade, I was disappointed to learn just how far off the movie actually was. I'm still awaiting a movie that does justice to the original story. Someday we'll get one, be it from Disney or another corporation.

nope. Nintendo owns donkey kong and all characters. Nintendo has owned donkey kong since the early 90's.
