It feels like The Quest to me, I like everything I see. Still mad that some white chick is Christie. Dania Remirez (or Jessica Lucas) could have been picture perfect Christies. Other than that (and Steve Fox as a mentor?) everyone looks nice and authentic.

I'd rather have a bunch of unknown actors that are real martial artists, than a bunch of name actors who take a karate class for the role.

Yeah the dialogue and story looks tacky as hell, but it's a martial arts movie. That stuff should come second to fight coreogrophy. Which actually looks pretty good so far. I've seen a few of these "no-names" in other martial-arts films and they can definitely put on some awesome fight scenes. Better than whats in mortal kombat, surely.

I actually don't mind weapons being in this. I really should be.

Skippord 01-15-2010 10:50 PM

they lost me by not having King

Fignuts 01-16-2010 11:12 AM

Hard to be excited for any other martial arts movie with raging phoenix on the way.

Kalyx triaD 01-16-2010 01:29 PM

Chinese Drunken Style vs Drunken Muay Thai!

Jon Kano 01-16-2010 03:12 PM

It's going to be shit. Deal with it.

Kalyx triaD 01-16-2010 03:16 PM

Phoenix looks like a good brawl, sir.

A retarded chimp with a stick up it's ass, coming out of it's mouth, in it's final death throes , can see that the story and acting will suck. But like I said, that's not important to me. I watch martial arts movies for the fight scenes. So I'm still giving it a chance.

Really on the fence, as to who I like better: Tony Jaa or Jeeja Yanin. Ong-Bak 2 vs Raging Phoenix will be the deciding factor, I suppose.

Kalyx triaD 01-16-2010 03:23 PM

I'm on Team Jaa. Fucker's a beast. And now he knows Kung Fu.

Fignuts 01-16-2010 03:28 PM

I remember in chocolate when Jeeja did like this mule kick thing and caught a guy's punch between her thigh and calf. Pretty much that moment started my indecision.

Kalyx triaD 01-16-2010 03:31 PM

I think Brenda Song should do serious martial arts roles. I saw Wendy Wu in it's entirety yesterday and the action's legit... for a Disney TV movie. And there's some legit dialogue, too.

Dark-Slicer Diago 01-16-2010 09:00 PM

I actually saw that movie myself, I hear there making a second one too. Surprised that the blue Ninja Storm Power Ranger was in that too(for a short time anyway).

Kalyx triaD 01-16-2010 09:13 PM

The New Zealand studio formally in charge of all the Disney Power Rangers had a hand in Wendy Wu so seeing Tori in there made sense, though she didn't have an action role. If they're doing a second one I'm hype about that.

This film looks good in the way that it'll be a huge flop commercially, but I will still enjoy watching it.

Kinda like those threads where it says 'films you like that no one else does'.

Kalyx triaD 02-16-2010 05:37 AM

I'm pretty much happy with the production so far. It's not like Tekken could be adapted into something groundbreaking. I suppose you can craft a meaningful film about what is essentially a story about three generations of men at war with each other... BUT LOOK AT WHAT NINA WILLIAMS IS WEARING.

Fignuts 02-16-2010 01:57 PM

A cheesy looking reproduction of her videogame outfit?

Yeah, whole thing looks tacky as hell. Like I said though, I don't care, as long as the fight scenes are good.

Funky Fly 02-18-2010 02:42 AM

Ahahahahaha OMG those pics are so fucking ridiculous. This could actually be worse than DOA and Street Fighter.

Kalyx triaD 02-18-2010 09:28 AM

DOA's actually a fun movie that doesn't take itself nearly as serious as Chun Li's movie. I reckon Tekken will end up somewhere between DOA and Mortal Kombat. I'm hoping it's as good as Mortal Kombat, and it's too much to expect it to be superior.

Kalyx triaD 02-18-2010 11:46 AM

I love Nina's costume and still hate a white bitch Christie.

Jessica Lucas = Christie

Wow, I didn't think they'd try that for the poster.

No no, I was talking about the Van Damme Street Fighter, not that recent abortion.

Kalyx triaD 02-21-2010 01:57 PM

Oh.

XL 02-21-2010 06:32 PM

Would someone mind taking the time to do a actor to character to videogame likeness for me? I am really struggling to place most of these characters in the games!?

Kalyx triaD 02-21-2010 06:40 PM

Side by side comparisons?

XL 02-22-2010 02:53 PM

If that's not too much work.

Fignuts 02-22-2010 04:47 PM

Do you realize who you are asking this from?

Kalyx triaD 02-22-2010 10:42 PM


Except for Christie, everybody's spot on.

lol it's straight to dvd now?

Kalyx triaD 05-19-2010 04:48 AM

Yes. Whatever gets it in my hands quicker. More movies should be this honest, imo.

You sound surprised by this.

Fignuts 05-19-2010 12:10 PM

I would expect a movie based off a popular videogame franchise to be in theaters.

Additionaly, if Legend of Chun Li can get a theatrical release, anything can.

Jura 08-04-2010 10:48 PM

Just watched the sample vid. Looks a bit iffy but I'm gonna download it and post my thoughts after I've watched it.

Jura 08-05-2010 03:39 AM

Tacky and cheesy. Too "video gamey" at times. Anna and Nina are mostly just eye candy. Luke Goss was wasted. Nothing about this movie was right but Christie is sex on legs.

Kalyx triaD 08-05-2010 06:10 AM

It's too video gamey?!?

Funky Fly 08-05-2010 06:27 AM

like DOA maybe? That was extremely "videogamey", what with being a shitty movie based on a game.
