Only a little? To me, King of the Fighters, and the games that make it up (Samurai Spirits, Fatal Fury, Art Of Fighting, and so on) have a rich history with wonderful stories.

This trailer made me die inside a lot.

My favourite part was at 1:54 to 1:57. Amazing!

But seriously though.. Maggie Q as Mai Shiranui? Casting may have dropped the ball a bit there..

Aha!

Well... uhm.

Don't know what to say about this. On the one hand it's cool to see Ray Park there - looks like they've got some talented acrobats in lead roles here, which means that visually you can probably expect better fight scenes than in your Mortal Kombats, etc.

On the other hand, it looks like low budget trash.

This sounds exactly like that extremely bad Street Fighter movie released last year (or was it early this year?)

I would have just cast this statue personally, it has more range as an actress then the entire cast of that *film*

This being a suped-up, dark version of king of the fighters, it's doubtful Maggie Q will wear the awesome costume that Mai is actually famous for. But that's hardly the biggest travesty here.

Of all fighting games, this is the one with the big story, the one that could have really bridged the gap into actual mainstream recognition of game to film adaptations.

It should have given them a great canvas to lay out their story, and it wouldn't have to have been a frame by frame copy to appease the fans like the Mass Effect or Uncharted movies will have to be.

Oh well, another video game franchise ruined, and not even by Uwe Boll.

You totally own that statue don't you LeonJ? Don't be ashamed, I own a heap like it (though not one of Mai yet.)

You guys were expecting something decent? There's never been a decent game to film adaption yet, this just furthers that. Just be thankful it's not directed by Uwe Boll.
