Soul Calibur to a Movie?

[DoubleDragon]

According to Gamespot http://www.gamespot.com/news/industry.html, Soul Calibur is to hit the silver screen. I personally think it's gonna suck so much ass for the fact that movies based on games generally blow. Does Street Figther ring a bell? Anyways, I was wondering what everyone else's take is on this.

I wan't to see the movie first before I jump into the sucks/doesn't suck drill...

But yeah, it might suck big donkey balls.

This sounds like a terrible idea. What self respecting actor would sign up for this... video games should only become anime, never live action movies.

Seung Mina is all I need for this movie to be a hit for me

Half of the games out there have already sold thier licenses, like GTA, Max Payne, and Metriod"supermetriod"

They are doing a Prince of Persia, sands of time movie too. When will the madness end!!?

Well those three games would actually make a decent movie (not good. decent) GTA would be a kind of crime epic movie. Max Payne is basically a movie just put into comic book and video game form. And hopefully it will be all noir-ish like the game. And Metroid can be like any sci-fi movie but the hero (heroine) is a hot blond space chick.

 

I don't think Soul Caliber would transfer well into a live action movie...I mean, it's a fighting game.
