Which on-screen adaptation of your favorite gaming icons do you think nailed it? Share your thoughts below.

Jim Carrey as Doctor Robotnik was such a genius casting choice, i can't imagine anyone else portraying him as amazingly as he did

Jack Black abselotely nailed it as Bowser!

Thats what happens when they actually follow the source material correctly.

Jim Carrey as Dr. Eggman was the perfect casting. 💯🎉

Ryan Renolds as Detective Pikachu and Jim Carrie as Robotnik are two of my all time favorites! The way their acting just brought the characters to life is just ever so marvelous!

Ryan Reynolds (Detective Pikachu), Jim Carrey (Dr. Robotnik), and Jack Black (Bowser) aced their characters like pros.

Where on earth is Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa as Shang Tsung? The man is perfect in the role

Jim Carrey as Dr. Robotnik is perfect casting he’s hilarious 😂

8:19 By the way both a sad and heartwarming fun fact about Raul Julia, he chose to do Street fighter because his children love the games and he wanted them to remember him for it.

I still got that Peach song in my head. Man, Jack Black owned the role as Bowser!

Henry Cavil as Geralt was so tragic. He was so good, so dedicated. But disagreements with writers who openly said they disliked the original material eventually made him leave. So sad.

Jim Carrey as Dr. Robotnik and Jack Black as Bowser both guys nailed it!

Years ago I would've said Dennis Hopper as King Koopa, But Jim Carrey as Dr Robotnik & Jack Black as Bowser were Perfection. 👌🏿

Ted Lewis as King Dedede in Kirby Right Back At Ya really should have been mentioned. He gave The Ruler of Dreamland such a memorable and hilarious voice that it practically became the definitive voice for the character for so many Kirby fans, including myself.

Ryan Reynolds as Detective Pikachu was amazing!

All of them nailed it as their video game characters

No love for Cary Hiroyuki-Tagawa? The man who portrayed Shang Tsung so well that he got hired to play him in Mortal Kombat 11???

Jack Black as Bowser and Jim Carrey as Dr Eggman they both really brought the two villains to life on the big screen and nailed how they are in the Mario games and Sonic Games.

Jim Carrey’s Robotnix was great, I can’t wait to see him wearing the fat suit in Sonic 3.

Don't forget about Matthew Lillard who played William Afton from 5 nights at Freddy's

Jim Carry captured the zaniness and intelligence of Dr Robotnik. :)

I love Castlevania and I love Trevor Belmont. One of my favorite shows ever

I still say Idris Elba deserves love as Knuckles. He plays the character so dramatically and powerfully while bringing the knucklehead's social disconnection and awkwardness to the character

Top 20 Best Allies to Sonic the Hedgehog!

Sonic 3, here we come!

Dr Robotnik has been confirmed to be fat in Sonic Movie 3. During the trilogy he changed from Dr Robotnik Slowly to Dr Eggman which is one of the coolest things if anyone ever rewatches the trilogy

Ryu, Ken Masters, Gouken and Akuma Street Fighter Assassin's Fist (2014) now this movie was the Street Fighter movie I actually wanted It was so good that It's still fondly remembered 10 years later good job Joey Ansah

Didn't even know Ella Purcell voiced Jinx. She killed it in arcane and in the new Fallout show

Trevor Goddard and Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa should have at least been honorable mentions. Trevor's portrayal of Kano was so good that the game developers retconned Kano's backstory and made him Australian. As for Cary, he was so beloved that he was brought back to portray the character in MK11.

Jim Carrey is great portrayal Robotnik

Scorpion should be higher on the list, easily the best ninja in gaming and Sanada did an amazing job as Hanzo/Scorpion.

Matthew Lillard as Willam Afton/Purple Guy!!! He nailed the character down to the t for the FNAF movie and did not disappoint...

I would also count Lumalee from The Super Mario Movie as a honorable mention. It makes me wish the Lumas from the Mario games were uncomfortable as Lumalee

CARY TAGAWA AS SHANG TSUNG!!!??????

You Forgot Cary Tagawa as Shang Tsung.

So we are dismiissing Angelina Jolie as the first live action movie Lara Croft. lol

sienna guillory as Jill valentine

All these portrayals were spectacular. But I came here for Samoa Joe and Will Arnett's portrayal of Sweet Tooth.

The Cast of Mortal Kombat 1995 Mortal Kombat, not only they accurately portray the video game characters, it is the only movie I knew that accurately and faithful adapted the game itself.

Amazing list, these portrayals really nailed it! 🎮👌

Joel was amazingly portrayed

Jim Carrey is amazing as Robotnik, and I can't wait to see him in Sonic 3.

Sonic the Hedgehog 2020 franchise got unstoppable quality that Sonic never stops himself now.

Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa as Shang Tsung, come on! From the movie to the game, he's still rocking this role and he's just so darn good at it, the MK team keeps modeling the character after him!

"For me, it was Tuesday". Some lines just land.

At first i wasn’t sure Jim Carrey’s design of Robotnik because of lack of the long mustache and bald head, lucky the second movie made him look closer to the iconic villain more and change my mind.

Angelina Jolie’s Lara Croft impressed me, but not to the extent of wanting to play the _Tomb Raider_ games.

Not just one character, but the entirety of Silent Hill from the nurses to Pyramid Head was spot-on for me. Still to this day the most faithful and perfect video game movie imo!!

Thank you for the honorable mention of THAT M. Bison's quote.

Raul Juliá gets his name butchered once again. 💀 The 'J' in Raul Juliá makes an H sound.

Jim and Jack share an unwavering commitment to the comedic portrayal of horrific gaming villains

Chris Casamassa as Scorpion from the ORIGINAL Mortal Kombat film, he was great he returned as Scorpion ( though not Hanzo) for the tv series Mortal Kombat conquest. Speaking of that, Jeff Meek as Shao Kahn ( Brian Thompson did well with the laugh, taunts in Annihilation and we'll see how Martyn Ford goes in the sequel to the 2021 film) since talking MORTAL KOMBAT, Linden Ashby as Johnny Cage, Bridgette Wilson as Sonya, TREVOR GODDARD AS KANO ( Josh Lawson is fantastic in the 2021 film) Christopher lambert as Raiden ( Jeff Meek was also Raiden in Conquest and was good as him too), Keith Cooke as Reptile ( was good as Sub zero in Annihilation) Cary Hyruki-Tagawa as Shang Tsung ( you FORGOT HIM HERE!). Jack Black- Bowser, Jim-Robotnik. Bruce Locke did well as Shang in Conquest. Adoni Maropis as Quan Chi in Conquest ( well see how Damon Harriman goes in the sequel to the 2021 film) Raul Julia as Bison, BOB HOSKINS as Mario, YOU FORGOT BOB HOSKINS! Andrew Bryniarski as Zangief, Jay Tavare as Vega, Ming Na-Wen as Chun Li, Grand L Bush as Balrog, Peter Tuiasosopo as E Honda. Honorable mentions to Fracncoise Petit ( Sub zero in original Mortal Kombat film, JJ Perry as Scorpion and Cyrax, Lynn Red Williams as Jax, Talisa Soto as Kitana, Ridley Tsui as Smoke, Dara Tomanovich and Audie England as Kitana) John Leguisamo as Luigi, Charlie Day as Luigi. Seth Rogan as Donkey Kong. Gotta give grace to Dennis Hopper as Coopa in the ORIGINAL SUPER MARIO BROS movie and Lance Henrikson as King Bowser in same movie.

Kano from the first mk movie deserves a spot here because ever since then, each game has modeled Kano after that Australian actor who played him.

For me it was Tuesday... The original thug life moment in movie history

Kano in the original Mortal Kombat was great, they changed the background of the character and made him Australian because of it.

Lou Albano in The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!

Cary Hiroyuki-Tagawa as Shang Tsung is iconic. He reprosed the role in a separate project, and then in MK 11 and they altered the design of the character to match the actor. If that's not a great performance I don't know what is

Almost had a stroke when i saw the thumbnail. The Sonic 3 trailer could drop any day now.

My Top 3 Capcom Game Who Deserve a Cinematic Universe! 1. Mega Man! 2. Darkstalkers! 3. Street Fighter!

I know it was an honorable mention but thank you for acknowledging the Warcraft movie and I agree with your pick.

Raul Julia as M bison absolutely nail it

The build up to scorpion at the end of the (2021) film was worth the wait.

Keanu Reeves as Shadow the Hedgehog is THE perfect casting in video game history.

Where Evil Grows is an amazing song.

No Mathew Lillard as William Afton from Five Nights at Freddy's. As a fnaf fan, he blew my mind. Especially the springlock scene.

Ryan Reynolds, Jim Carrey, and Jack Black did an amazing job as these iconic video game characters.

Captain Lou Albano and Danny Wells as the Mario Bros.

Just wait until Borderlands this year and next year’s Minecraft movie gets released. And a future live action Legend of Zelda and Pac-Man movie gets released. Hope there’s a Kirby movie.

Why didn't you mention Shang Tsung or The Ghoul!?

Tbh the director of detective pikachu wanted to get danny devito to voice pikachu but he didnt know what pikachu or pokemon was, ryan is a great choice for the majority of his castings... deadpool is just incredible

When the Western genre died, Gangsters stepped in. When the Gangster genre died, Superheroes stepped in. The Superhero genre is dying, and now, adapting Video Games into movies/shows is stepping in (the first ever film adaptation of a video game was *Super Mario Bros.: The Great Mission to Rescue Princess Peach!* back in 1986).

Ryan Renyolds as Detective Pikachu, Jim Carrey as Doctor Robotnik, and Alicia Viakander as Lara Croft do a fantastic job bringing these characters to life. Some other actors that do a great job bringing video characters to life, even if they didn't speak and are just wearing a costume, are Matt Taylor who played Nemesis in Resident Evil Apocalypse, and Roberto Campanella who portrayed Pyramid Head in the Silent Hill movies.

I love the fact that Jim Carrey gets picked as a wonderful performance as Eggman. But, can I for once see some love for Ben Schwartz as my main hero, Sonic? Heck, why not Idris Elba for Knuckles? Chris Pratt should most definitely get some love for his portrayal of Mario. So does Charlie Day as Luigi and Anna Taylor Joy as Peach.

What’s the background music used throughout from?

One Day: Kratos From God Of War! But Who Could Possibly Play That Iconic Role?????

It's a crime that you left out Long John Baldry as Dr. Robotnik in Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog.

Matthew Lillard was great as William Afton.

Heck the legendary Jim Carrey revitalized his entire career as Dr robotnic it's almost like the role he was destined to play him because he was the best part of the movies for me

I've heard that for Sonic 3, Jim requested to have a fat suit. Here is hoping that is the case

How is Raul Julia only an honorable mention.

Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa as Shang Tsung, a Flawless Victory.

8) Jim Carrey being Dr. Robotnik/Eggman was truly the best choice in TV-history! So happy we got to see new work with him in it. He's such a perfect actor :) Also Sonic being made in a rl-movie that doesn't sucks is EPIC! Cannot wait for the 3rd movie :D

Video game adaptations have come a long way.

I have a few... Lol. This list needs a part 2. Or this could have been a top 20. Lol. Robin Shou as Liu Kang Cary Hiroyuki Tagawa as Shang Tsung Linden Ashby as Johnny Cage Bridgette Wilson as Sonya Blade Sienna Guillory as Jill Valentine Li Bingbing as Ada Wong Kaya Scodelario as Claire Redfield Angelina Jolie as Lara Croft

It’s very hard to portray a perfect video game character as it is a comic book one, but, damn it to high heaven, these actors and actresses REALLY pulled it off well, did they?!?!?!?!?!

Jim Carrey as Robotnik was incredibly funny and Jack Black as Bowser was awesome!

Jim Carrey's performance as Dr. Robotnik shows how amazing Carrey is as a comedian and actor for more than 30 years. Thank you, Jim. You deserve a lifetime achievement award in the near future. 😊

Jim Carey ISN'T Number One? Seriously Mojo? It's like watching a Carey from the 90s: Mask plus Ventura plus Riddler all rolled into one insane package!

Love that the Spoonman made an appearance.

If you allow #9 as the honourable mention, this list is actually way WAY better in reverse.

Seeing live-action Robotnik at thumbnail made me tap. Bruh.

I was surprised to see a movie from before 2010 on the list, even in the HM.

Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa redefined Shang Tsung.

I *still* wish they would have let Samoa Joe do the voice. He did the physical so well and he doesn't have a voice that would have fit.

As entertaining as it was to watch Jim Carrey as Dr. Robotnik, that was NOT what Robotnik's character was like in any Sonic variation, not even at his goofiest or most over the top. Fun to watch, but completely OOC. They might as well have made him a completely different character. At best, it was Jim Carrey PLAYING Jim Carrey posing as Robotnik.

Arcane is a show that is so impossible to dislike.

Raul Julia had a great swan song as Bison.

Okay, I love Alicia Vikander, but no. Her Lara Croft isn’t even a shadow of the original character.

I didn't know there was a movie of "The Witcher", "Tomb Raider", or "Phoenix Wright 'Ace Attorney'"! That's awesome! Also, I've never heard of "Arcane". It looks like a great game! All the movies and TV shows on this list seem great! I'd love to see them all and play all the games of them! I didn't know Pikachu could talk until I saw a trailer for "Detective Pikachu". And if nobody cares, why did Dr. Robotnik ask the guy's name? Also, I thought he would be bald in the first Sonic movie before it was released.
