Wes Anderson

Earthbound couldn't be replicated in another medium.

Terrence Malick

Why bother?

I don't understand the obsession Cred Forumsedditors have of wanting every game they like adapted into film. Somethings work as games, leave them be.

Shigesato Itoi

Whoever directed turbo kid

Tim Burton is a interesting choice

Hideo Kojima

Jodorowsky

Nobody.

Please tell me you're joking.

They would completely butcher the final act, regardless of the director.

David Cronenberg

Edgar Wright could help find the right comedic tone to the movie, but I think it would be better suited to a mini series.

Spike Jonze. He knows how to direct kids, build worlds and can handle drama and comedy.

David Lynch could do the whole Americana vibe and he'd be good at the surreal stuff like the happy village and all the psychic power mind fuckery.

Cronenberg would be good for all the disturbing stuff like kids being put into robot bodies and stuff like that.

Taika Waititi

He's got the right amount of quirk.

Anno. Psychological drama about kids with monster battles is what he's famous for

Edgar Wright is probably the only person who would be able to capture the feel and look of the actual game.
