tekkendwightlittle1 Tekken Movie Gets a Director; Still Going to be TerribleBrace yourselves, Tekken fans, odds are your beloved franchise is about to be sullied. Dwight Little, known his directing “talents” on such cinematic masterpieces as the sequels to Anaconda and Free Willy, Murder at 1600, and Marked for Death, has been tapped to direct the upcoming Tekken film. Production is slated to begin on February 4th, based on a screenplay from Alan McElroy, whose past works include Ballistic: Ecks vs. Sever, The Marine, and Spawn. I sense movie brilliance, the likes of which hasn’t been seen since Street Fighter: The Movie.

    WHY GOD WHY?!!!!!!! Whoever it is in Hollywood that keeps thinking that it would be a good idea to turn a fighting game into a live action movie should be dragged out into the street and shot for being a moron……..

  2. TEKKEN MOVIE BY DWIGHT LITTLE.

    Dwight Little and Alan McElroy have f**ked everything up on the Tekken movie and this is going to another video game movie problem.
    So if Asian filmmakers will be involved on the project with other filmmakers
    and everybody is not going to like the Tekken.
    There will be other VG movies with Uwe Boll working Sabotage 1943,Zombie Massacre and by the rights to Namco arcade game Ninja Assault.
    Christophe Gans will still be working on the Onimusha movie and the plot for the movie will be rewritten to follow the plot and storyline to Onimusha Warlords game.
    Uwe Boll should make the movie based on the Ninja Assault game as a low budget
    two month shoot movie in Canada.
    Thank You.

    I think Hollywood purposefully makes these bad game to movie conversions as revenge for all our bad movie to game conversions. :P
