State of Emergency and Tekken Movie!!
I don't know if any of you suscribe to Gamer.com, but they sent me a weekly newsletter, and they had news that there is going to be a State of Emergency and a Tekken movie!! Here is the whole article, 'cause I'm too lazy to sum it up.
***********: News: State of Emergency, Tekken Headed to Big Screen By: Bob Blandeburgo February 21, 2002 8:07 AM PST New Line Cinema and the lesser-known Crystal Sky have obtained the rights to make feature films based on VIS Entertainment's State of Emergency and Namco's Tekken, respectively. New Line has joined forces with Zide/Perry Entertainment to bring State of Emergency to the big screen, said Toby Emmerich, president of production for New Line. Like the game, State of Emergency is set in an Orwellian future in which social and economic chaos has left a city in the hands of a monolithic corporation that only a handful of resistance fighters have the courage to take on. The movie will be adapted by Damian Shannon and Mark Swift (of the much-anticipated Freddy vs.Jason fame) and produced by Zide/Perry's Warren Zide and Craig Perry, the team behind the popular American Pie films. "State of Emergency is an action franchise waiting to happen," Emmerich said. "To be able to create a franchisable action movie that appeals to young audiences based on a highly successful video game is something we've been looking for and State of Emergency is a perfect fit." Meanwhile, after a "fierce bidding war," Crystal Sky president and CEO Steven Paul confirmed to The Hollywood Reporter that his company will make a $60 million movie based on Namco's Tekken. Under the deal, Crystal Sky will co-develop and co-finance the film with Gaga Communications, which also gets Japanese distribution rights. Much of the CGI effects needed for the feature will be done by Creative Visual Effects, which Paul also owns. The film's cast and director will not be sought until later this year. Can you guys believe that? Oh my God....I think it will seriously bomb. Well....I dunno about Tekken, but I think the SOE will be kinda bad. And don't think I'm saying this because I don't like the game. I honestly think it will suck. Maybe that' my opinion. What do you guys think? |

I've heard about the Tekken movie a couple of years ago, but I'm a bit skeptical about it. As for SOE, I'm not sure how this movie will turn out, I mean, we haven't even seen the Crazy Taxi movie yet!
But is it action or comedy? (SOE) |

i like the idea of a TK movie. the idea of the dilema between kazuya and hehaci (sp) in a movie will be amazing. that has one the coolist story lines of all games, okay i wouldnt go that far but it is a wicked story
4 soe i dont think it will be that good, + it will be an 18 unless so u have to rent it to see it, well for me that is

I'm not sure how well either of the games will turn out if you look at previous games which were made into movies so I'm not holding my hopes up to high on how well they will do
But it will be interesting what they come up with for a storyline for the movies as well as how well they will do too :rolleyes:

Yeah, they would need to come up with a pretty good plot for an SOE movie, same with Crazy Taxi. I cant wait to see Resident Evil.

Ooh! A Shadow of Destiny movie would be so cool! Then, they could show all the 5 different endings at different theaters. That way, you'll have to go to all the different theaters if you want to see all the endings! It'll be just like that movie, "Clue".

State of Emergency as a movie???? What would the plot be since most of the game has no plot and is just senseless killing and yes i know the little missions i own the game.

ah..sorry bout that, i was just stating that they have already made a tekken movie but real actors, all other fighting game movies have been cheesy as heck, look at mortal kombat and street fighter, they were just crap...as for Soul Caliber and jackie chan, what have they been smoking?!?!?
