Time for Hollywood to dip into the anime/manga well?

Honestly I am suprised Hollywood hasn't been aggressively going after video games?

I mean for example a Fast and the Furious type movie based on Need For Speed. It would sell shit loads and then they could do a cop movie based on Hot Pursuit in the same universe. They could then sell plenty of merchandise and make a fortune.

Or how about a Call of Duty movie series or a Medal Of Honour one? UbiSoft has siginalled that its franchises could soon be going Hollywood. What about Assasins Creed or any of the Tom Clancey liscenses, his books could be turned into movies easily enough.

The biggest one yet is why Nintendo hasn't been launching movies? Or even some of Microsoft's properties or what about a God Of War movie series?

Yeah honestly just make a generic war movie and label it Call of Duty and you would have a cash cow. Release a game alongside it and boom Activision's CEO's would die of happiness.
