Sheet dudes, you could wait a month and this will likely be in the dollar theaters; which in my opinion is probably the best way to see it. 70% chance the theater will be empty, and you have not lived until you've taken your pants off in the cinema (your crappy throttled connection may vary) You don't have to wait for netflix to load up, or agonize over the fact this will probably be on some stupid obscure streaming service, if at all. Also cheaper than a dvd (and why would you want to own this unless it's truly awful-hilarious), no need to wait a year for your library to get it, and if you have a video rental store still open near you – well cherish that while you still can [*]I'm sure your comp/tv is pretty nice, but it's best to see how wiggy someone's wig could possibly be. Also how crappy some effects are [*]Also get some hot popcorn without stinking up your place.

Whoa! Wait, Paul and June are married? Why have they been hiding this for so long? Does Jason know?

Do you think it was supposed to be a pun on him being 'the Worm'?

Not a dakimakura, not interested.

Were both of them high?

Sorry to beat this dead horse, but this ad had better cinematography than the movie. http://youtu.be/GBhm8kMVMVc

The game looks somewhat amusing https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wZF9xxUsnfc

Any subs or dubs?

I absolutely do not remember this coming out (although being based on a 'fighting' game my mom probably wouldn't of let me see it) but I have very strong memories of the cartoon. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uCxZVED9Wdg

I get this movie confused with The Worst Witch, which features Tim Curry (and much better music)

One thing I remember about this was that the game became popular when the NBA (or equivalent) collapsed, but that seems so stupid to me because they're using straight up baseball pitches and nothing gets dunked. Also the Rollerball remake fells more like a rip off of this (yeah I went there)

Nuntional Treasure

I think part of the problem with adapting Dune also is that it's such a language dense book where the faux-medieval is really damn corny , and that so many other things have taken from it (Star Wars, Fifth Element) going back to the original and keeping a straight face would be pretty damn impossible, in the same way that most people now had a hard time swallowing John Carter. Also isn't every Jodorowsky film not but a fever dream on film? Zoom back camera. We are images, dreams, photographs. We must not stay here. Prisoners! We shall break the illusion. This is magic! Goodbye to the Holy Mountain. Real life awaits us.

Ugh, reminds me of the bad game(s?) after Deadly Alliance where all the good original characters get turned into zombies and therefore everything gets all edgy. Also isn't that the era where they really wanted Striker the cop to become everyone's darling even though he just oozed asshole? [For me the best MK's go 2D:2nd and 3D:Deadly Alliance] With her also hating Street Fighter I would love for them to review the supposedly terrible (I haven't seen it) just so she doesn't pick up a fighting game habit. Because that would be bad.

Oh there's rumors that there was an eight (or more) hour cut. I feel like the story worked better as a miniseries* mostly because that damn book is a bible-and-a-half sized**. It seems to me the best adaptations are of shorter stories where they can be expanded (like the works of Philip K Dick, al a "We Can Remember It for You Wholesale" to Total Recall or "Second Variety" to Screamers) rather than cutting down a tome into a reasonable running time. Anyways it's on my get round to it list but there's a documentary about Alejandro Jodorowsky attempting to produce Dune before Lynch/De Laurentiis but it would of been un-filmable due to the grand vision of it (and that it would of been a 14 hour running time). *a miniseries of silly hats **that's a valid way to measure books, right?

This villainous plot is what Nundercover is trying to stop, and she has to steal the Holy Grail & Shroud of Turin so nobody else can.

I have a theory that in the early stages it was supposed to be a Fatal Fury / King of Fighters movie but Neal McDonough was already attached and that probably for copyright reasons they just lazily changed things around him. And the costumer had no idea what was going on. Seriously look: Also I hear the real The King of Fighters film was pretty terrible, but I barely know those games so I don't care to seek it out.

Sorry for doubling, but I felt the need to make a separate post I really like the first RE movie as it was well constructed for a zombie film; first a mystery happens, then a pensive mood, it all goes to hell, and they have to fight their way out with consequences. It all has a very logical flow and works well by not following the game. Probably the only real down mark is the tacked on Alice in Wonderland references. The second on the other hand is just a damn clunky mess that is mostly them strutting around spouting "bad ass" lines and looking pretty, a DBZ-level ridiculous fight breaks out, introducing a character with the same name as someone from the games but is in no way like them, rinse & repeat until a numetal song finishes off the film (if I remember correctly). I also dislike this film for turning Alice from a person acting in a story to bending it around her to become a Mary Sue and the rest of the series is her showing up all the characters from the games. Having them do this film would be great especially if Jason really knows the games and June had never seen it before. I bet she would even pull out another fastball like loving that Alice is so motherly to the small British girl. Or maybe they would all get hung up on the fight in the church.

And speaking of MK theme (via wikipedia) Lords of Acid are a great band if you want to get into 90's techno (possibly again). And the song has had numerous remixes, but possibly the most notable is Traci Lord's (yes, she of underage Penthouse fame) Control, which was produced by Juno Reactor. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XSijFOT4Y4Q Also I highly recommend the movie soundtracks (note: George S Clinton is not the guy from Parliament) and I am very sad I don't have that cd anymore. /edit: I hope the guest is Andrew Ti of Yo Is This Racist

Amadeus Cho doesn't know kung-fu! He uses super math to defeat his enemies! ...wait

The original black superhero was Black Lightning (who literally shot black lightning), and I think all the ones afterward were mostly ripoffs or homages (such as Static Shock). Other things I could think of: - Luke Cage and Powerman are the same. He's bullet proof and strong. -There's Misty Knight, she was a cop who lost her arm and Ironman made her a bionic one. She's part of the steer level crew with Luke Cage and Dare Devil. -Static Shock came from Milestone Comics which was created by a group of black comic book artists and writers. Sadly creator Dwayne McDuffie passed away a few years ago. -Isaiah Bradley was a prototype Captain America, and his story is a commentary on the government's eugenics program. -Cyborg has been promoted from the Teen Titans to the Justice League. -Black Canary is a white woman.

I haaaattteeee this movie. I'm not even sure if I could listen to the show, the trailer was bad enough.

Too bad Herman Li didn't get this question (you know, Hong Kong).

bronies are the worst

What makes you think the producers ever read the books?
