GoldenEye (N64)
The World is not Enough (N64). Not as good as Goldeneye but still a solid game in it's own right.
GoldenEye 007 (Wii, PS3,XBox 360 Remake)
Alladin (SNES) Capcom made it
Spider Man 1 & 2 (I played them for PC)
Star Wars (SNES)
Return of the Jedi (SNES)
LotR: Return of the King (NGC) was good but short
Maybe the other LotRs games? Never played them though

The stigma that all Video Games based on Movies are bad is BS. The good ones are just too far in between.

Usually the rule of thumb when it comes to movie-based or licensed-based games is if the game is solely released as a tie-in for a particular movie, TV show, etc., and shares the exact same title as the film, then it's usually going to be a dud.

But if the game is an original story or premise that just happens to tie in with a film or property (Scarface: The World Is Yours, Chronicles of Riddick: Escape From Butcher Bay and the Star Wars Rogue Squadron series are good examples of this), then odds are it'll be of better quality than your typical licensed game.
