  • Non-exciting trailer for TEKKEN

    by:
    January 15th, 2010

    Here's the trailer for the TEKKEN, the live-action adaptation for the largely popular video game of the same name. This will come as no shock to you, but this adaptation looks to be 3% fun. There's two things directors should about us moviegoers: 1) If you're going to make a video game adaptation, you better spend a lot of time on it and make it damn good. Video games are sacred territory to the would-be geek that's going to pay a lot of money to see your movie over and over. 2) You can't sell a movie with stylized action scenes that are flooded with bad acting, irritating music, and a lazy script - people will ignore you.

    Watch the trailer after the jump and see for yourself!

    TEKKEN is directed by Dwight H. Little (ANACONDA 2: straight-to-DVD) and stars Jon Foo as a fighter who competes in a popular tournament to avenge the death of his mother. Kelly Overton, Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa, Ian Anthony Dale, Cung Le, Darrin Dewitt Henson, and Luke Goss co-star.

      Can I just say what a relief to find someone who actually knows what theyre talking about on the internet. You definitely know how to bring an issue to light and make it important. More people need to read this and understand this side of the story. I cant believe youre not more popular because you definitely have the gift.

      I think that may have been my personal bias coming into play. Cobra has been one of my favorites for a long time and even though I recognize how important the original Rocky is to the whole series, I found the movie itself to be a tad slow and boring. That doesn’t mean it wasn’t a good movie mind you just a personal preference BTW, Stallone only got paid 30K to do Cop Land.
