    In reply to New King of Fighters Movie Trailer (With Swords!)
    When a rogue fighter doesn't play by the rules, his thirst for power threatens to destroy the universe... with a sword?

    I'm pretty sure our universe is a little more robust than that.

    Even the trailer is poorly directed. Regardless, it looks like it's not quite Mortal Kombat Annihilation. I guess, if you're a fan, just grab you favorite substance, abuse it, and sit back and enjoy. Lucky me, I'm not a fan so I can just keep walking...

    This could be an interesting fighting movie, but it is in no way a translation of KoF from game to movie. Maybe, and I can't believe I am saying this, they should have taken a page from Paul W Anderson and the fighting game characters close to their source. Now I must shower because I said Paul Anderson was right about something.

    This reminds me of the "Machete" trailer before Planet Terror, except that trailer wasn't taking itself seriously.

    Did they actually rip off a track from the superb Dark Knight soundtrack and expect nobody to notice? Good god, the level of failure in this movie just keeps rising and rising and rising. I'm not very happy with the KOF franchise after the disappointment that was XII, but it deserves better than this, damn it.

    @Mister Jack started the Save The Lombax Foundation: Well, that happens a lot, actually. The soundtrack from 'Aliens' is actually the most sampled soundtrack in movie trailers. At least they didn't use the 'Requiem for a Dream' theme.
    But, yes, this trailer looks incredibly uninteresting and that's bad for a movie that consists of people fighting.

    @dwaltonk: I know they do it a lot, but to do it with the second highest grossing movie of all time that's only a year old? You can't hear that song and think anything but "Dark Knight"

    Oh my...

    Another dimension? Really? So...it's Mortal Kombat?

    Considering this is King of Fighters...um...who's who in this movie? I saw blue flame and thought it was Kyo or Terry...or hell Rock...

    I...just don't know anymore. But me and my brother will be there opening day!

    I haven't actually played King of Fighters, but I think I know "enough" about it to question whether or not this movie really has a firm grip of the source material.

    In a sense it reminds me of the Dragonball: Evolution trailer, but Street Fighter (new one) trailer ...
