46839, Tekken movie FINALLY on the way?? Jet Li's in it??
Posted by Lach, Mon Dec-26-05 07:23 PM
Bout damn time. Jet Li should be Marshall Law. And everyone's pick for Lei Wu Long has always been Jackie Chan. Ziyi Zhang could possible play Ling Xiaoyu. The rest... I dunno. But this movie is long overdue and I hope they go all out.

46855, can't be any worse than the upcoming Dead Or Alive movie

46856, They need to leave it to the Asian choreographers
Posted by Lach, Mon Dec-26-05 09:52 PM
If they do, it may be allright.
46866, Corey Yuen is directing, but the CASTING!

OHH, the casting!!!

:'(
47071, although i hear Sho Kosugi's son is playing Ryu

i guess that can be an upside to it
46946, Why...why oh why oh why...
Posted by BlacKnightSC, Tue Dec-27-05 04:13 PM
Do they waste thier budgets on these wasted attempts to cash in the franchise cow?
46957, So far only 2 video game movies have been done well...
Posted by Lach, Tue Dec-27-05 05:56 PM
The Resident Evil series (to some extent) and Tomb Raider. Doom was ehh..
46982, Final Fantasy Advent Children can be added to that list
Posted by BlacKnightSC, Tue Dec-27-05 11:15 PM
unfourneatly the first attempt at the franchise was merely abuse of the title.
46983, haven't seen tomb raider, but I'd add the first mortal kombat

and the street fighter anime

47013, Both MK movies were blah to me...
Posted by Lach, Wed Dec-28-05 09:30 AM
and yes, the SF anime was the shit, but I was just talking purely non-anime. The first Tomb Raider movie was just ok, but the 2nd one did the game proud. It was really good.
46999, resident evil and tomb raider?
Posted by PlanetInfinite, Wed Dec-28-05 03:06 AM
you might as well say super mario bros.

47014, The 2nd Tomb Raider movie was good...
Posted by Lach, Wed Dec-28-05 09:31 AM
and the Resident Evil movies were entertaining. I mean, the RE movies weren't anything to write home about, but they were solid movies.
47116, RE: The 2nd Tomb Raider movie was good...

i think jet li should be banned from Tekken... and on that note, i hope its going to be a balanced movie, as in, not a movie which celebrates jin or kazuya... theyre boring
47607, so IGN says that Chuck Stone III is directing? LOL

He of the bulk of the Roots video anthology and the "WHAZAAAAAAAAAAAAAP" commercials.

47626, you know, if they can get the best of the best for the movie...
Posted by phenompyrus, Sun Jan-01-06 10:42 PM
it would prolly be the best martial arts movie ever.
47719, RE: Tekken movie FINALLY on the way?? Jet Li's in it??
Posted by ajax, Mon Jan-02-06 04:31 PM
the relationships and history between the characters in tekken provide enough to make for an interesting story, but this kind of movie is too easy to mess up. i'm not holding my breath.

peace,
