I LOL'd so hard in real life when I went to see the Street fighter movie. Chun-li is disgraced in that movie and it shows little resemblance to the video games : The dragonball movie didn't fare much better. It's a good thing my girlfriend got me into both movies for free, or i'd be out 20 dollars and 3 hours of my life.

 

 

Dragonball is out?

"In video game terms, RPGs are games that involve a form of separate battles taking place with a specialized battle system and the use of a system that increases your power through a form of points.

Sure, what you say is the definition, but the connotation of RPGs is what they are in video games." - dtewi

The movies of videogames could be succesful but looks like this one couldn't.

Not surprised it bombed. They took a hot chick to do a movie about a character who knows martial arts. Here's an idea, how about actually taking a chick that knows how to fight :O

Only RE has succeeded movie-wise that I can think of. I think the latest one flopped too. Capcom is overdoing it nowadays. They release the sames games over and over (nothing wrong with that for a vg co.) but then they decide to release credit cards and movies again? lol.

Capcom doesn't really have anything to do with the movies..I think they give it a green light, but afterward, I think the company that makes the movies (Screen Gem, owned by Sony Pictures) has more to do with the movies.

The resident evil movies are the 4th (Apocalypse), 5th (Extinction) and 7th (RE) highest grossing zombie movies.

These are based on US numbers specifically..WW totals in comparison are as followed...

Resident Evil - $40 mil (US), $102 million (WW)

Resident Evil: Apocalypse - $51 million (US), $129 million (WW)

Resident Evil: Extinction - $50 million (US), $147 million (WW)

Sorry, most of this is agreeing with you and praising the Resident Evil movies for actually being decent movies. :)

 

Thanks for clarifying. The RE movie I was talking about is Degeneration. I think capcom made that one but I'm not sure.

 

man what you talking about, degeneration sucked hard balls, story was lame, leon was lame (the whole love thing, lame) and it was animated soooo poorly.

moving on, i'm not going to watch that movie or at least pay to watch it. Want them to stop making VG movies or atleast make it right!

only good SF movie is SF alpha hands down. SF alpha generation sucked balls, SF2 the movie was alright.

The only LIVE ACTION video game movie that was good was the 1st Mortal Kombat. That's it.

Now as for the best Street Fighter movie was SF2: The animated movie. I'm glad this recent iteration failed.
