Re: Toys/Games that would actually make decent movies.
The game I'm thinking of that would make an awesome movie is Forbidden Bridge. It was another Milton Bradley game released in the early '90s about the bridge that rattled and the explorers that fell off when the idol God of the bridge gets mad. I thought that would've made a great movie for my childhood, but today, it feels so largely forgotten that I don't think anyone would probably think to make it.

Hopefully someone else remembers C.O.P.S.
It could be an awesome action movie..."Fighting Crime in a Future Time."

Wasn't able to watch this but I did get the figures for gifts and had the dude with the brain cap for the longest time.

Universal dropped Clue and Monopoly and a movie based on Magic: The Gathering.

I actually thought a Clue remake would be funny. Imagine Will Ferrell and Col Mustard and Steve Carrell and Mr. Green.

As for Monopoly, how about something like Wall Street?
As for Magic: The Gathering - I still collect the cards and keep up with the game and on the forums whenever somebody brings up how to make a movie about it my usual response is that whenever I start itching for that I just watch The Lord of the Rings and I'm satisfied.
Don't know if anyone mentioned it or not already, but I'd still like to see an animated version of Shadows of the Empire. It's a Star Wars film set between Empire and Return. It had a novel, comic book, soundtrack, toys, video games, everything but an actual film.
