A Metroid film would utterly suck. In fact whenever when I think of games that should never be made into films Metroid is normally the first to spring to mind.
The only game I think has enough characters, plot and action sequences to make a decent film would be Metal Gear Solid 3 - but even then it'll probably suck. Games are games instead of films for a reason and that is why to this day a good video game film does not exist. FF7 Advent Children is only good for fans of the game, and thus isn't a good film but a good fan service.
But to not just be a jerk, some games I wouldn't mind seeing be made into films are: MGS3, Heavenly Sword and Metal Slug (think light hearted Rambo). And only then if they were made really well - which they wouldn't be.
