The main thing I think they should stop doing is trying to turn a video game into a movie. The only time this could only work is when the game itself is somewhat cinematic and linear, which the Mass Effect games certainly aren't (save for maybe Mass Effect 3, ZING!). Still, that doesn't mean Mass Effect should completely avoid the big screen. Best case scenario, Mass Effect can pull a Forward Unto Dawn type of deal where the movie is still set in the same universe but instead adds to the lore rather than repeat everything we know.
