Cool Tekken in Live Action - 09-17-2010, 09:47 AM

Well? What do you peeps think? Live action made a mess of Dragonball and Avatar: The last airbender. Is anime going to be a media scapegoat for another f**k up? It looks fine to me, though.

Tekken is horrible. I almost died watching it.

I'm kind of afraid for this movie. Dragon Ball "Evolution" was just too horrible. There's a point where the director should have realized how bad it was. The Last Airbender was this years biggest disappointment for me. I was so looking forward to the movie and was let down. Hopefully, they will learn from their mistakes when making the second movie. The Tekken trailer looks pretty good, but the track record for anime based movies isnt looking too good. Lets keep our fingers crossed shall we.

I'm pretty sure it will suck.

It will be a contrived plot that will pay lip service to the games... but will take itself too seriously and fall on its face with its stereotypical and one-dimensional characters.

They needed to go all "Scott Pilgrim versus the world" with this movie and have fun with it.

Believe me guys, Tekken is bad. It makes me almost feel ashamed to say I love the game series.

I would not count on another Last Airbender movie being made.

I agree...

I would not count on another big M Night Shyamalan movie either.

I completely agree and Scott Pilgrim was amazing. Too bad it didn't do so well at the box office. The only reason why i say they will probably make another Last Airbender movie is because it has made back its budget plus 150+ million more.

Wow, very unanimous comments... xD I guess missing out on it won't count for a lot then. That's a relief. I'll probably watch it as a time-filler, if I ever do find it.
