King of Fighters the movie. Dear God, why?

Proving that it can do anything just as well as Street Fighter, SNK's King of Fighters prepares to be eviscerated by Hollywood.

HERE'S THE CAST:
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1038685/

Of note:

In dragon ball style Kyo Kusanagi is now a whiteboy.

Iori is ten years older than kyo.
Mai and Vice are both chinese. While this isn't a problem in and of itself neither character is chinese in the games.

I guess I can live with that in Vice's Case:

But Mai... well. I'm dissapointed.

Uh oh. Uh_OH.

A shot on the set:

Uh oh again. Production values.

The film's written by two people who ain't never wrote shit before and directed by the guy who directed The Medallion. That's right. THE MEDALLION STARRING JACKIE CHAN.

And oh yeah did I mention the crazy fucking plot?

For those of you who cannot click things:

"The King of Fighters movie will introduce a new science fiction spin into the setting established in the games’ universe by following the surviving members of three legendary fighting clans who are continually whisked away to other dimensions by an evil power," says insider blog Movieset.

"As the fighters enter each new world they battle that universe’s native defenders, while the force that brought them seeks to find a way to invade and infect our world."[2]

Go ahead, click the link, see the rest of the cast, look at the poster that some kid cranked out of photoshop in 15 minutes. And if you're a fan, it's okay to cry. I mean i know the plot was not shindler's list or anything but did we have to make a clone of mortal kombat?
 
I hope Mature is in it.
But this may be so bad (Chun-Li/Dragonball) that I may not see this as well.
Or better yet, hopefully something happens over at the studio, and they come out with a bootleg copy before the movie comes out (Wolverine) so, I can enjoy without paying.

And are those pics of the actresses from other things, or is Vice gonna wear white and have Mai doing flying Liu Kang kicks?

Edit - Just saw who was playing Chizuru. lol.
 
*falls on the floor and starts laughing hysterically* You know, I might just go see the movie when it comes out... I haven't laughed for a good few days... of course, I'll be labeled the annoying prick who doesn't stop laughing and would probable get threats from hardcore KOF fanboys, but it will be worth it XD.
 
cuz BOTH of the Street fighter movies worked out SO well that this was just a GREAT idea. And the dragonball movie is a summer blockbuster if I've ever seen one o.O

Wow im disappointed. Mai is meant to be well, hawt...That actress is anything but...

yea... and for lack of better terminology... where the fuck did her tits go?? FAIL FAIL FAIL FAIL FAIL
 
I hope Mature is in it.
As mizu pointed out she is, and portrayed by a "Monique Ganderton".

There seems to be nothing wrong with miss Ganderton:

Unless she's playing a zombie:

Frankly I don't know where the pics are from. I just googled the actors and actresses to see what they look like for comparisons. They may be of character, they may not be. Chances are the way that actors and actresses get around (and the rate at which they have their picture taken) they could be from any where but looking at the way Mai's actress is dressed in that picture who can say. There are also like 50 different pics of her in that dress flying around. The pic with all the metal strutting is definitely from set however.

You might also be interested to know that my searches turned up this picture as well:

But I omitted it as it was not inline with the tone of my original post. That may very well be Miss Q in costume. And the original artist makes a valid point.
 
on another note Kyo is actually asian while Goku wasn't so the whole he's a white boy thing is actually valid and STUPID.

however the biggest fail is of course Mai, this can't be a good thing..........
 
So why'd I bring this thread back? For a very important update on the disaster that shall be, The King of fighters the Movie.
