The King of Fighters movie... yes, Hollyweird

Erm...lol, why is it weird? His new outfit doesn't leave the half of the impression the old one did.

Be glad that Kim won't be in the movie or they will rape him. I have envisoned KOF films, but they need Peter Jackson to make them.

OK these pictures have been for a while.

Here we see in the middle Ray Park playing bad guy Rugal, it totally sucks as he isn't a thing like Rugal! And while the actresses aren't ugly, they look in no way like Rugal's henchwomen, Mature and Vice! Compare them with the real deals.


And they totally raped Mai Shiranui and not in a good hentai way! This is Mai Shiranui as she is for the games.


Now see how she will be played by Maggie Q.




They made her look like an ugly whore!!!!! Even a cosplayer looks more like Mai, like this:


Just like Chatfail did with Goku by totally making him out of character, they are making Mai out of character as she is sexy yet cute and cheerful and fun! And since when Mai uses swords????!!!! Guess they believed using fans as weapons isn't "realistic" so they made her an ugly tasteless whore with a sword.

To summarize:


This is another movie to boycott. Really! No money to crappy products like these!

Sadly there is no vomit emoticon.

Good grief, the skeletal woman playing Mai looks like she'd break in half just by someone touching her. I wonder how many times she's collapsed from anorexia.

And I just laugh everytime I see the guy they casted to play the lead character.

On the bright side though, the new King of Fighters game looks great.

I always believed that only Peter Jackson could properly take KOF into film as there are a lot of characters, but by making first prequels to KOF movies with some Fatal Fury and Art Of Fighting films.

Stupid Ray Park is overrated, can't believe they casted him for Rugal. Does he even know how Rugal looks? Maybe he will pull a James Marsters from this. lol at Park thinking he looks intimidating like that! Actor Enrique Rocha would be a better Rugal, just replace him with a stunt for fight scenes or CGI stunt. Here is he:


I have a bad taste in my mouth from that ugly ho of Maggie Q. They think that we guys are crazy homormone driven men that will see any skanky whore with weapons, just as they did with the Dead Or Alive movie by placing ugly whores posing as if they were sexy. Here is a picture of a bunch of girls cosplaying as Mai, plus one as Athena and another girl in the background to get rid of the bad taste.

man this is just sad, it cannot be other thing than sad.

effin americans, come up with your own ideas or at least go back to raping your own franchises like you did in the past, (i mean i love that finally they are doing good movies of american comics and cartoons, but that doesn´t mean that now, they should do bad movies of other countries characters, just, don´t do bad movies, is that, that hard to get?)

this look awful and disgusting

Maggie Q sucks, there are a million hoter girls in asia, but she and Zhang Ziyi are the only ones they know, well at least she IS asian not like effin Lana Lang as Chun Li.

KOF should be done in Hong Kong, directed by Andrew Lau who did some of the best Martial Arts manhua adaptations, Storm Riders and Man Called Hero, and there are so many actors in Hong Kong who look just like KOF characters AND some of them even know real martial arts.

Nicolas Tse would be the best Kyo, he is handsome, and is the student of Jackie Chan so has real Kung Fu.

Besides KOF is inmesely popular in HK the manhua has been published in there for ages, and the artwork done by some of the best artists there, is probably as big as it is in Japan or bigger.

And as you said, KOF is not even popular in the states, so what do they care, it is much more popular in mexico and everyone will hate it there.

Oh and I agree Enrique Rocha would be a much better Rugal and his voice is awsome.

and by the way those Maggie Q´s photos are not from the movie, they where from a shoot she did for Maxim or one of those magazines at least five years ago, and the one in Qipao (the chinese dress) is from a very crapy movie called Balls of Fury.

If acording to this movie they can travel across dimentions, I hope the real Iori comes to our dimension and faces the producers.

And say to them

NAKETE, SAKETE, SOSHITE SHINE¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡

As he ripps them apart,

then laughs with his maniac laughter

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHA

That would be something worth seeing.

Wow... Just wow... You think that Hollywood would have learned their lesson after Dragonball De-Evolution's appauling reception, but no they keep going, don't they? For f**k's sake it's like being back in the days when we were still learning about new things about DBE, before it came out.

I mean, I'm not a KOF fan, the only game I've got with characters from the series is Capcom vs SNK 2, but I still think this is disgusting. That ugly ass man, sorry I mean lady, is NO Mai! Especially not after that amazing Mai picture in black and white posted a few posts back *saves picture quickly*. And everytime I see a cosplayer that looks more like the character than the official live action film version, thats when you know you gotta start worrying.

WTF DID THEY DO TO MAI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

holy crap thats beyond mssed up...

Haha, that is suppose to be Rugal? Terrible choice. That also stands for Mature and Mai and Iori.

Beware! View the behind the scenes trailer in this link. Beware as it might cause to twist your mind:

This will be a disaster of the DBE proportions.

That woman has no boobs.

Yeah, flat as a pancake.

For me it is not that she has no breasts, for me is that not only is her portray nothing to do with the character herself, but that the entire movie has nothing to do with the videogames!

Remember the Dead Or Alive movie? Well for me it was terrible because the film in no way relfected the games and because the actresses looked nothing like the girls from the games. But I am no talking of big breasts, what I am talking is that in esscence they look nothing.

For example, I believed Aya Ueto should had been Ayane; because she does look like Ayane but of course she has no breasts, still she was good to play her because she is simiar. But instead they made some ugly girl play her.

Movies based on video games are terrible. I can't even connect the actors with the characters in this one.

The following comes for the SNK wikia:

http://snk.wikia.com/wiki/King_of_Fighters_%28movie%29

The synopsis released in 2007 is as follows:

"A stylish, high-octane, live action feature based on the highly successful video game franchise, in which the last surviving descendants of three legendary clans are continuously transported to other dimensions to test their martial arts skills against an evil force that seeks to invade and infect the real world."

These notes were added in the December 2, 2008 press release:

"As the fighters enter each new world they battle that universe’s native defenders..."

The film's story is predicted to take a sci-fi twist for the series. A recent behind the scenes video adds that the story will involve the "pursuit of three artifacts that will grant their owner unlimited power over reality." Joseph Chou, one of the listed producers, says the series's story arcs serves as inspiration for the movie's overall themes.

The plot will center around Kyo Kusanagi and his ascent into becoming a fighter. As a child, he is nearly killed by his father due to the Orochi's influence and goes into a coma. Angry and confused, he is dragged into a conflict that involves saving his own world from being conquered by Rugal Bernstein. Kyo, Iori Yagami and Mai Shiranui must band together to stop him.

Rugal, maniacal and power-hungry, believes himself to be the King of Fighters and indiscriminately kills all in his path in his own world and seeks to claim another. As part of the CIA, Terry Bogard investigates the under workings of the KOF secret society and their purpose.

So not only they make Terry Bogard a CIA agent, but they also have made Kyo an emo kid like Gawku.



Oh, and of course they would add some hot suggestive lesbo action, as kids these days love that!

Of course I am being sarcastic with that line.

This here is how Maggi Q will look as Mai Shiranui:


Now, compare her to an actual image of the character


and cosplayers

Why that Tlaloc!! Posting images of all those Mai cosplayers like that...

*Saves all images*

And what the f**k?? Maggie Q's playing who? Mai is it? No she isn't, thats just... thats just... just not Mai at all!!

Are they still making king of fighters Lam???!!!

^ Erm, of course...have you heard otherwise?

*facepalm* I thought it was another fanmade trailer joke but this is indeed for real

It all began in '94...I guess that no one imagined that the game will reach out to so many people and turn out to be such major franchise. But this movie is everything but the tribute to the KoF. It's just what DBE is to DB.
It pains me to see a greatness getting exploited over and over.

Fully agreed, I don't know what else to say about this massive exploitation(which fortunately seems to be stuck lately did you notice it? DMC axed, NGE stuck, TEKKEN stuck, Berserk never started etc...it seems we're having some influence on all this haha )

I am sometimes wondering, will they try do a Tetris live action movie...
