I think Devil May Cry should be directed by Sam Raimi with Bruce Campbell as Dante... sure it would still suck, but it would suck while reminding everyone how much fun they had watching the Evil Dead Triology!

Why don't they just stick to anime? You can do anything you want if you can draw it, plus it'll look sweet. Those movies are probably gonna dissapoint anyway.

Nonsense. The game's story is all flash and style with little substance. If Hollywood can't handle that kind of movie then what the hell good are they?

Yeah, but that's only if they get a good studio like the ones involved in the Animatrix. (which if I may so, if Madhouse was attached to a DMC anime it would be totally sweet and rule the earth.)

Plus anime cost more and has less international appeal then a live action movie (which with computers effects you can do anything in as well)

plus all I have to say is "Art of Fighting" and anyone who's seen it knows that anime can f**k up a movie just as bad if not worse then an American company.

(also it's not like a movie negates an animes, it just means someone approached Capcom about making a movie before someone approached to make an anime.)

... Hmmmmnnn, I wonder how could they approach the Tekken movie; I mean, the game doesn't uses any spectacular special effects, even the ones who could use (Devil Jin, Ogre, Devil) are pretty lame + the evil theme that most tekkens handle (main character trying to kill someone) can not be truly presented by holywood; who would surely sell this as a whole family movie... I'm sureley NOT looking foward to it.

Who said it needs special effects?!?! Street Fighter didn't need no special effects!

And as to how Hollywood would handle it; First let's decide who's vechile it would be:

-if it's a male star:
Paul Phoneix (played by an aging action star who doesn't realize his career ended in 1992) is the greatest fighter in the world ever! He and his asian side-kick Law must enter an evil Billionare's underground tournament blah-blah-blah (see any early 90's Kung Fu movie staring a white guy, it's the same deal) Even if the fights weren't so very clumsy looking you'd have trouble beleiving a white guy who's only heard of Kung-Fu could take out and army of ninjas/raptors.

-if it's a female star:
Nina Williams (played by a modle turned actress who can't really fight and looks silly doing so) is the greatest secret angent in the world, but she doesn't remember her past! So she must inflitrate Heihachi's tournament to learn the truth! At some point she confronts her sister Anna and find a love interest in Paul (who would do nothing but act like an ass the whole film, but still win her heart since he's a male and it's the easiest link to make), random shower scene very likely.
