I don't really care about the game much but a combination of kung-fu, jack black, and a panda is a win in my book.

i meant the movie was a win btw

funny, i seem to have missed the memo that laser cannons were part of kung fu. huh.

@RET_Ghost: agree. should be good. Dreamworks + Jack Black + Panda = greatness.

Wait, is this a movie or a game? Both? Must remember to ask Jeeves...

This game will be the next headline in the news regarding RL violence en-acted by kids!

With that said, I liiiike it

Remember when Jack Black was funny?

Cock push-ups.

@Pezdispenser: both. movie's ou this summer. this is for the game.

@njhardcoreguy: he still is. orange county? school of rock? crack me up every time.

action fighter?! Button *masher*?! In *deed*, sir. Why, your fighter of streets is nothing more than a base wank of epic proportions! Locked in linear combat--limited movement capabilities-goofy and unnaturally poor UI masquerading as 'special moves'. Why no, young man, this is not the way for the fighting purist.

I decry your 'real' fighter, and crave a quote, button masher, unquote! If you cannot summon the creativity to outplan the random actions of an elephant hoof smooshing a controller, then you are, quite simply, a *knave*.

that's right. You're in the knavey.

@RET_Ghost: And this is why Hollywood made this horrible movie...

I feel dirty now for watching this video. Dirty enough to learn one of those other fighting styles like Jitsu...or whatever it's called...and then break whoever's neck allowed this game/movie to come to fraction...

Explosivo.........

Looks like a nice linear combat based platform-ish game, with God-of-war gameplay, sit-con jokes and stuff.
Big Thanks guys! :D

@JGab: C'mon dude, its not that bad. I don't think your supposed to take it seriously. Last time I checked there weren't any real kung fu panda's to offend and being a martial artist myself your supposed to have a humble nature about it. Kung fu is the founding if drunken boxing for the love of god, even the creators had a sense of humor about it.

@Deathbunny
You sir are quite funny....I plan to call some foolish sop a "knave" before leaving the office today...

@JGab: heh, seriously, lighten up. it's a game. playing it is not MANDATORY, ya know. you could just skip it, or something mature like that.

Fat-people-like-to-eat-jokes? When will Dreamworks learn?
If he doesn't work in a record store or battle Satan I'm out.

@RET_Ghost: You know what's funny? I thought the exact opposite.

KUNG FU. PANDA STYLE.

No.

I can't believe people are actually excited for this movie. I don't get it, movies have to go through thousands of people in order to get approved for production... how is it then that not one person stood up during this time and said "Hey, this is REALLY offensive and stupid, maybe we shouldn't make this movie because it will offend Asian people and Jack Black isn't funny and the idea is generally in bad taste to begin with. Anyone...?"

This movie has everything I hate about trends in movies these days: It makes light of stereotyping Asian culture (seriously, why is it okay to still do that? You can't have characters like Speedy Gonzales anymore, why can you have Kung Fu Panda?). It's 3D, which lets the studio produce it fast enough to stuff it full of stupid pop-culture references that will be irrelevant in 5 years. It's capitalizing on a celebrity voice actor, who isn't actually a professional voice actor and hasn't been funny since they became really famous.

The only thing more horrifying than this is the law that states franchise video games must be worse than their source.

I always wondered who watched these Norbit like movies. These movies are a plague.

Games based on movies? Bad? Shocker!

Looks awesome

I saw very little kung fu in that clip.

My own kung fu training has contained much less in the way of flying and explosions, many more kicks and push ups.

Also, I think I saw the panda go into the "crane kick" position from the Karate Kid, which will make my head 'splode.

Looks terrible. Will sell like hotcakes.

@frank0127: Personal opinions of JB aside, Orange County was 2002 and School Of Rock was 2003. They can't be classed as evidence that he's still funny

@brooza: then they can't be classed as evidence that he isn't, either.

I didn't say that they could be evidence either way, you're the one that mentioned them

I heard "I LOVE KUNG FUUU!" then stopped watching.

Actually, that trailer seems to showcase an evolution of the movei/game tie-in, possibly spurned by the horsepower of current-gen consoles. Very few before had much in the way of feeling at all like their movie counterparts, but this looks like it's getting the entire feel across.

Bugger the elitists who are obviously playing more serious games or directing serfs to gather firewood for the winter. They'd be holding themselves too tightly to appreciate that we *just* might have come into an age where the majority of film-to-game licenses may not suck.

Maybe.

Can't wait to see it, won't ever try/buy the game.
