I'm looking forward to this with so much hope. . .
I mean, let's face it. The first movie was so bad that it killed Raul Julia. This one can't do much worse.

Why doesn't she just do the matrix?

The REAL Chunli would spinning bird kick the bullets straight back to the shooters.

And crush their heads between her thighs.

...Then give a giggly "Yatta!" afterwards.

@UmeShoryu: No spinning bird kicks? Goddamnit!

Well if they work at the story and flesh out a good plot then it might be good. Hopefully she works out her legs a bit so she can play the part and not be all skinny....mmmmm thighs.

Hmm, not really the best start. I mean, the first bits of info they give us is a little too similar to The Matrix? (ie. Morph running towards the helicopter after being tortured, the bullets licking his heels etc).

Not that I was expecting anything too great, but still.

This is probably the scene where her dad fires an employee named Matt from the police force and he starts going on a rampage that leads to a chase scene in a harbor. And Matt just wanted to be alone, but Chun Li wanted to sort things out with him. Turns out they had some connection with each other. But Matt was too upset to talk, so he fires at her.

Soon Matt's guilt will turn him into M. Bison.

I do want to see this one though, if only because I like Michael Clarke Duncan.

@amost: They're just storyboards. They don't represent the look at all, just motion. If it got bogged down in detail it wouldn't serve the same purpose.

Although I, too, worry. Her thighs draw too much ire and misogyny among fanboys and all unthinking frat boys. They couldn't very well sell a movie with a woman who actually looked like she could throw a man against a wall or break his spine with a single spin kick. Those muscles make her look "fat."

I look forward to a lackluster movie about a runway model who has the inexplicable power to dodge bullets.

Honestly, if I were fifteen, I might be excited.

UmeShoryu — Wed, 09 Apr 2008 00:27:34 MDT

I actually think this movie is going to turn out pretty decent. It's not going to win any awards, well maybe the MTV ones (Hottest female hero? Best fight scene?) but it's going to surprise a lot of people. From what I've read the movie is just Chun Li looking for revenge with straight up street fighting. There aren't going to be any Claw Dives, Psycho Crushers, Kikoukens, Spinning Bird Kicks or Balrog saying lines like "I got paid."

If I could compare this movie to a recent, and successful film, I'd have to say Kill Bill. Minus the over the top violence and Tarantino dialogue.

That might cause series fans to say the movie has nothing to do with the games, but using this approach certainly appeals to movie/non-SF audiences.

The big question everyone is going to be asking is: Will it be better than Leprechan in the Hood? (friends and me watched it for reasons I can never be entirely sure of)

Seriously though, Im kind of at the point where I doubt even a perfect game with a rich story can be turned into a good movie by modern hollywood so for a game with no real story other than a bunch of strange people got together to smack each other around really stand a chance?

Or have we forgotten that this has been tried before?
