I believe that it was unconfirmed, but well known... I wonder what actress shoul be called to personify the bounciness that have gotten the game known... As the sad part -for some- video games movies always get some cash in; I mean, even if it sucks everyone see it due to the game and to actually check how bad it is, even if you have been warned by someone...
Actually, this could turn out to be one of the better game-to-movie transitions ever!
DoA doesn't have a real story, and the action/gameplay is pretty much spoony, so all they need to do to make the movie true to the game is get some softcore porn stars and make them wear revealing clothes!
Neppuu! Shippuu! CYBUSTER!

I'm tired of people attacking the gameplay of DoA, as I actually like the games as fighters.

It's like a game of " rock paper scissors ". Constant counters while waiting for somebody to actually do something. :D Oooh, man, too good to pass up.
As for the movie, well, it will be silly, but at least it might be close to the game's story. Who wants to bet that Christie will be the main character and Kasumi + Ayane will barely even be in the movie?

The article I read said it would focus on four girls, I'm guessing Kasumi, Ayame, Lei-fang, and Helena, but Christie and Hitomi would probably be easier to cast.
I like the gameplay of the DOA series, but it has no plot. This is stupid, though it can't possibly be worse than the Charlie's Angels movie.

I bet it will. Charlie's Angels knew it was sleazy and reveled in it. This might try to be something and look stupid doing it.

Oh, come on. ^_^ With the way DOA is marketed, you think they'll try and make it something "deep"? ^_^
ahh, but Tomb Raider had Chris Barrie in it, the guy who played Rimmer. RIMMER!
So when it hits TV, I'll watch it. Or if I have a free rental to burn...:)
DOA, OTOH, is just built for the videogame movie curse. Though if they keep it simple, and just have a martial arts movie focusing on 4 girls it might be half not-bad... (But I doubt it).
Just read this: Bolt said the film, described as "Charlie's Angels" meets "Enter the Dragon,"
Ugh.
Why are they bothering with a plot?? They should just get a bunch of girls that look like the characters, give them the suit they gave Angelina in Tombraider then have them walk around slowly and stretch. They could even have Dennis Rodman.

So the DoA film is going to be about a group of girls who model swim wear, play volleyball and occasionally wrestle each other? Ah, the magic of movies. While this is the stupidest thing I've heard since the last stupid bit of video game to movie news I will say that if someone manages to cast a good real-life Ayame I will either know who the future Mrs. Ishmael is or at least who will be my latest object of unrequited desire.

i feel that the movie will be a success if they have pairs of watermelons in bras crashing through windows and splatting against the ground.

Of COURSE I want to see it. BUT... I'm afraid to. I've been a DoA fan since the first one came to PSX, and I know they're going to screw up the movie. Kasumi had BETTER be cast well!!!!!! Ugh... I'm not sure if anyone will EVER make a good video game movie.......
I'm capable of much better graphic design but I just slapped this together. Sorry....

Well, depends on your definition of videogame movie. I think The Last Starfighter and The Wizard were both good video game movies, but as for movies based directly off of a specific real game, um,...I think Tomb Raider actually turned out pretty good. True I'm not very much into the game series, but still, I thought the movie was actually alright.

Well, you know what I meant. Movies based on a particular game, not centered around PLAYING games...
