Agree that they should probably just skip the first game and do the movie on the second or third Uncharted (even though they won't). I think the first game could still work very well for the first movie though. There are a lot of cool scenes in that game that could still be used. Although the German bunker scenes may be a little hard to pull off successfully...
Essentially, in terms of best movie potential...
2nd Game > 3rd Game > 1st Game
I hope a Uncharted movie comes out eventually though...
