Side note: I made this list because I was planning on going through all of these and ranking them. Its been a few months now and I kind of just forgot and now I don't care to subject myself to even more garbage. New Ghostbusters II is pretty good though!
Spartan X is so funny. Imagine being so inspired by one of the best action comedies made that you inadvertently laid the foundation for the action and BEU genres.

Swamp Thing
Top Gun: The Second Mission
Willow
And, if it counts, Roger Rabbit for the FDS, which became Bugs Bunny Crazy Castle on NES, which became Mickey Mouse on the Game Boy

@BlazingWaters I still need to watch Meals on Wheels. In fact, most of Jackie Chan's filmography I still need to watch!

@Ratts Swamp Thing seems to be based on the animated series, not the film. The other three have been added, thanks!

Not sure if it counts but there's a game called Toki no Tabibito: Time Stranger by Kemco based off the Anime film of the same name. Though it's infamous for not even following the source a single bit, the girl on the poster isn't even in the game.

@Angel_Arle - Thank you! It definitely counts; there's a few games on here that loosely follow the plots of the film.
