Soul Calibur: The Movie! ^-^

Speaking of a black Taki...

The idea is good, really... XD
 
After reading this awesome thread I refuse to watch a SC movie without Lady Gaga as Voldo and Nicki Minaj as Ivy.

Edit: and that Ivy cosplay looks nothing like Ivy.
 
If we had a time machine, Angelina Jolie would make a great Hilde.

But we don't have that time machine. I'm sure somebody pointed this out many, many pages ago, but I'm not looking.

Well, she's the right age to play the Soul Calibur V version of her.
 
For some reason I finally feel like sharing my unwelcome opinion on this matter, regardless of how many others have already sahred the exact same one throughout this topic I won't be reading through.

A Soulcalibur movie is a terrible idea, every possibility for it leads to something terrible.


1: Live action adaptation. We'd have Cassandra as our protagonist running around the world trying to find a way to destroy the evil soul swords with her friends Zeeba the talking, poledancing, kleptomaniac monkey, Amy the heartless oprhaned fencer who is prone to going on homicidal rampages and implaing people without notice, and Patroklos the dimwitted comic relief foreign guy who constantly gets his ass kicked and says the most profoundly stupid shit. Our chief antagonist would be Zasalamel, the immortal who bent both Soul Edge and Soul Calibur to his will and unleashed an army of ghost zombie golem pirates to rule the world, only to be defeated when it turns out the sheer stupidity of Patroklos allows him immunity to the mind control he never used until the finale; when Zasalamel also forgot how to move or defend himself. Oh, and Kill-ick would appear somewhere towards the end of the second act to provide them an omen of some sort that ultra-loosely implies Pattycakes stupidity saving the day. Somehow. No other characters would appear.

2: Animu. Patroklos travels the world reenacting SCVs story and meeting every other charater who has a throwaway bit part, then randomly discovers Algol gaining the power of Night Terror and trying to conquer the world but with the help of Mitsurugi, Zasalamel, and bishounen-non-gay LOVE POWER they overwhelm him and he dies again. The soundtrack is a deathcore opera bluegrass disco dubstep hybrid with highly distorted scitars, also.

3: Needlessly expensive CG movie with A-list actors phoning in every single line. Everything would happen at a snails pace, no one would care about the mediocre action scenes, and all focus on the western release of it would be on Clooney's terrible-yet-praised performance as Mitsurugi while some random unheard of actor gets no credit for their stellar performance as...whoever they played; because no one took notice. It would also be pretty as fuck, but that would be its only upside.

Just reading all that makes me second guess of even having a Soul Calibur movie. Hollywood would butcher it just like every other video game adaptation.What could work, however, is a CGI movie with all the characters and their voice actors voicing them but then again look how Tekken: Blood Vengeance turned out.
 
I thought this video had some great ideas.

Jessica Alba as Hilde? Are you serious?
Rachael Leigh Cook as Tira? *Does Daniel Bryan Yes Chant*
Milla Jovovich as Setsuka? I rather have Uma Thurman as Sets. Milla looks like she should be Ivy.
Rachel McAdams and Scarlett Johansson as Sophitia and Cassandra? I'll buy it.

Since this is all hypothetical we prefer to look at hopeful but grounded scenarios:
  1. Live action: Completely cheesy and corny. Expect lots of inaccuracies such as Leixia fighting with a fan and Xiba being Japanese and not related to her at all.
  2. Anime: A mini-series following the story of the game with an added story of Team Maxi. It will only star the five kids and Nightmare. Supporting characters would be Maxi, Tira, Viola and Zwei. The veterans (Siegfried, Kilik, Mitsurugi, Ivy, Sophitia Elysium and perhaps Taki.) would guest star an episode or two. Expect a few very short quarrels and fights spanning over two episodes. Also expect awkward comical scene containing either boobs, Ivy or an upskirt shot accompanied with either a red face or a nosebleed.
  3. CG: Similar to the anime but a movie retelling of the story of the game without any additional starring characters and less perversion. Expect very short cool fights alongside the terrible parts of the original material.
Personally what I want is a HQ fight-fest regardless whether it's anime or CG. For something adapted from a fighting game I want to see random characters fighting in front of random backgrounds. I want the fights to be high budget with decent choreography.
They can have a background story if they want but it should only take less than %20 of screen time.
 
Jessica Alba as Hilde? Are you serious?

Honestly, I'll buy it...

Rachael Leigh Cook as Tira? *Does Daniel Bryan Yes Chant*

Uma Thurman might go 4 Setsuka, but Milla, 4 me, would B better 4 Hilde...

Rachel McAdams and Scarlett Johansson as Sophitia and Cassandra? I'll buy it.

I don't, or at least, Rachel 4 Sophitia, but Scarlett is 2 old 4 playing Cassandra...
Maybe the contrary might make more sense...
 
Anybody else that doesn't want her to.

U didn't get the meaning of my speech...
Neither do I want Mila Jojovich as Setsuka...
But in the end, what can I do?
The cast is made by another guy, & this guy is free of casting whoever he wants as whoever he wants...
Nobody can Control other's people's mind...

Find someone else identical and post it.

I could tell U Milla Jojovich...

But I can tell U also Mischa Burton, Sharni Vinson or Kelly Overton...
