Oh sweet, merciful Christ. What is the only thing worse than a video game based on a movie? A movie based on a video game. The first MK movie was not bad; the story kind of made sense and Billy Madison’s girlfriend was Sonya Blade. Then, MK Annihilation came out. I went to the movies with my little brother and we both felt like we had been robbed off our $6.50. Now, MK 3: The Movie is coming. The guy who played Scorpion in the first movie is said to reprise his role. Now only if we can get Uwe Boll to direct it, it can go right to DVD and save me the 2 seconds it would take to decide to not pay to see it.
Before everyone shits their respective pants, this is just a user video from what seems like it could be an actual movie and not just a trailer. Though it looks beat, it has the setting for a great porno. Think of all the possibilities. Mega Man hopefully fights female robots, or else it would be a little too much man on man on man on robot. I would like to see the Mega Buster drop a load or four on Deep Throat Woman or DVDA Woman. Anyway, here is the trailer sans gratuitous robot sex.
It seems like the new Street Fighter movie might not be casting the worst actors on the planet this time around. The movie will focus on Chun Li, who will be the protagonist in the film and we will see her characters rise to, well, fame I guess. Her master, Gen, will be played by Robin Shou, the same actor who played Liu Kang in the MK movies as well as sidekick in Beverly Hills Ninja. Could this be a miserable movie? Maybe. If they keep using some decent cast, it might be worth watching. On cable.
As you know, we get press releases from developers all the time and its great because we know they are true. Sometimes, we wonder if they are putting peyote in the coffee.
There WILL be a new live action SF movie coming out in 2009. This is already in motion. In case you have not seen the 1991 debacle, click here. I wrote all about it. Just in case you think I am full of shit, hit the jump for the official press release. I wish I was kidding, I really do. Raul Julia is spinning is his grave right now. Maybe there will be some live action Hadoukens. A man can dream…
Another great video game franchise is hitting the big screen. The first question to all of us is, “How bad is this going to suck?” The role of Max Payne will be played by none other than Mark Wahlberg of Dirk Diggler fame. The filming should conclude around early May. Does anyone think this is going to be even halfway decent?
Last night I was watching TV and came across a movie I have not seen in well over a decade, Street Fighter. When it came out in 1993, I was only 12 and thought this movie kicked serious ass. Boy, was I an asshole. Watching this again through the eyes of a grown ass man, I realized how inherently bad this flick was. I understand the movie was supposed to be campy and include the likes of the video game characters. Fine. Yet there are some absurd liberties the writers of the movie take. I have decided to write a little tidbit about each character and some of the lines they say or things that just happen for no reason. Read on, its well worth it.
