Videogame adaptations to film and television are the new hotness—haven't you heard? Markiplier's Iron Lung flick just took the box office by storm, Yoshi's laying eggs on the silver screen, and the best choice-driven fantasy RPG ever made is getting an HBO show that'll do all the choosing for you. If you're a videogame enjoyer of a certain tenure, you'll even remember the BioShock movie. Not the new one Netflix is developing, but the old one that got killed before it ever reached the finish line.

It was set to be directed by Gore Verbinski, who directed the first three Pirates of the Caribbean movies, Rango, and the American version of The Ring. Tonally, BioShock sits somewhere between those three things, so it may have even been good; Verbinski himself seemed to think so, as he explained in a Reddit AMA yesterday.
