It looks horrendous, and I'm being generous.

Mad Pierrot · 2017-06-20, 13:22

It's a movie and appears to have the quality of the new Berserk anime

To make it even worse, the actual protagonist barely appears in the trailer

SILENTANIMELOVER · 2017-06-20, 22:55

I feel the exact same way. This movie should have been in 2D like the old Fatal Fury OVAs.

As for the source material it may cover fatal fury 1&2

Opening trailer

Checked the official site and, as expected, they are using KoF XIV voice cast for this. Which means no Nobuyuki Hiyama as Joe. Too bad.

...that CG would have been top of the line if this was produced in the early 2000's.

And yeah, while I generally am more forgiving of 3DCG rendered animation (I can tolerate like the 3DCG in Berserk)...this is just lame. Definitely would have been better as 2D animation if this was the result on that budget.

- I don't even want to consider Live action movies of games nowadays--its almost as if everybody making live action adaptations of popular games are taking tips from Uwe Boll. About the only Fighting game movie I thought was anywhere near good was the original Mortal Kombat movie from 1995, and I'm probably all alone in that regard.

MAYBE this movie will actually make up for the CGI in storytelling, who knows. But while there are some franchises that would work well in live action, more over-the-top shows like those based on KoF or series like JoJo are better served with animation. Making them live-action...actually makes it less believable or enjoyable.

I sincerely hope they don't make a habit of showing the moves for special techniques from the games lol.

Mortal Kombat 1995 screwed up the characters of Scorpion, Sub Zero & Reptile though, but I agree that the movie is a masterpiece compared to the Uwe Boll ones.

Aside from the the first Mortal Kombat movie, I think there are a bunch of okay-to-good video-game movies that provides real popcorn fun such as:
Tomb Raider 1 & 2
Prince of Persia
Doom
Silent Hill 1
Warcraft

I also enjoyed the two Hitman movies to an extend. I haven’t seen Assassin’s Creed movie yet.

Don't forget Jackie Chan's absolutely fantastic portrayal of Chun Li

Tekken also got a CGI movie. While its plot is nah, the fight between Jin, Kazuya and Heihachi was awesome and a bit ridiculous cos they are family

On the other hand, I never watched the two Tekken liveaction films

AntonKutovoi · 2017-08-01, 03:05

And you better not to. I've never seen the second one, but the first one was a garbage. Although I do admit, Heihachi was cool in that movie.

wredsa · 2017-08-03, 15:02

the title is King of Fighters Destiny.

This thread now should be in the current anime. I am not spoiling much the first episode gave me goosebumps. I have they keep making more episodes all the way to verse arc.

Mad Pierrot · 2017-08-04, 10:31

The first episode starts by telling us about Japanese mythology so you get an idea what will this cover
