One hopes this won't be like that bloody idiotic Van Damme flick Street Fighter...

CGI Lizardman? PLEASE!? I've been such a good boy...

And Soulcalibur is actually possible to not fuck up. A lot of games can make excellent movies, just put someone competent in charge.

Chances are slim though, as he's a rather minor character. :(

Hope to God the casting is somewhat decent! Maybe some hot Asians for once.. but then you white people always go for the a-typical china doll look in Asian casting :-\

I demand Ivy! I just hope whoever plays her doesn't totally ruin the character (Lara Croft, anyone? :roll: ).

ya...look another story hollywood can fuck up or think they can do something with.

Just write some decent material and stop trying to think games....especially fighting games are the next big source.

If it turns out like the first Mortal Kombat, it wouldn't be so bad. But it'd better not turn out like Street Fighter.

Start buying and packing, because unless by some unknown fickle weirdness of the universe it turns out at least like Mortal Kombat 1.....it's gonna be bad.

Very bad.

Isn't this being done by the same guys who did House of the Dead's movie adaptation?

If so, forget any ideas about this being watchable.

I don't see why I would rather watch it as a crappy movie than just play the damn game.

*sigh* yet another fighting game converted into a movie. why must they always (almost) use fighting games?

Because Platformers yeild "Super Mario Bros.", and RPGs are too long/not enough people like them to give it the full LoTR's treatment.

Personally, I would like to see a Fallout inspired movie.
