Tekken prequel film coming from Ong Bak director

actually the fight scenes were decent. all or most were train martial artist. they need a bigger budget and better writers.

The first one sucked and this one will too.Unless Tony Jaa is gonna be The Fight Choreographer they should just leave it the hell alone.Just the fact that the DOA Movie was better pretty much says it all.

I repeat Pinkaew had no say in the ong bak fights, Tony Jaa was responsible for them all. So unless tony jaa is responsible for the  fight scense  please dont do it.

And even if Tony jaa choreography the fights in the movie like he did for ong bak, I wouldn?t want his name even attached to any game based  fighter turned movie cause they all windup sucking.

I think it draw been the tekken movie and the DOA movie on which was worse. come to think of it the both sucked ass both should of never seen the light of day.

Now as for the this director, I love the guy hell i loved the ong bak movies. Tho Pinkaew had no say in any of the fighting in those movies, That was all Tony Jaa, and Tony Jaa put Jackie Chan,Jet Li And all the other to shame.

But ya for the love god please dont make another tekken movie, or hell and game based fighter into a movies as they all SUCKED

ROFL!!!! I CAN'T STOP MYSELF FROM LAUGHING!!! AHAHAHA

uh... and why is this being made again...?

All I can say is, Prachya Pinkaew, do your best. Make the Tekken fans proud, because the first live-action movie was a disaster. 

Yeah, cause it's not like the last THREE Tekken movies sucked or anything. 

Honestly, I feel the Tomb Raider franchise is the only films that felt like the video game series.  The only way you can possibly make a film series based upon a video game is to take Halo, God of War and Metal Gear Solid and turn them into films.  And maybe Splinter Cell.  Or Ghost Recon or Call of Duty.  You have to take something Hollywood usually depicts otherwise there is no way anyone should attempt to make a Gex movie or Rayman or anything unless it's CGI based.

I confess I haven't seen the first one so.....I do like the idea of looking for a cast that resemble the characters though!

We can apparently see how many people here did not watch Ong Bak. This may be the greatest thing to ever happen. Tekken is one of the best fighting games around, and Ong Bak is easily in my top 10 movies ever made. Ong Bak is on Netflix, go watch it.

When are these idiots going to learn that video games do not make good movies and vise versa?  There is a REASON I do not go to the movies more than a few times a year.

Here's a project, straight on the heels of Battleship: Farmville - the Movie!  And for just $20.00, you too can have a paper cow on a stick.

Seeing as how the first one didn't even make a million dollars WORLDWIDE, one can clearly see the demand for a sequal.

Yeah, you know, if there are people willing to actually spend money producing dreck like this, I have a lot of beachfront property in Arizona that's I'd be willing to part with at a very resonable rate.

The Tekken game looks different  now. Did they just reduce the cg power or has it always been like this?

Why not make Tekken CG's? save money and 100X Better than anything a Directorthink he's doing right. lol

A TEKKEN movie should be 3D animation that is equal or better than the intro and the ending movies of the game quality, with all -or at least-  most of the characters involved, and to hell with the script and the story line, just give the iron-fist addicts the fierce fights with the original fighting moves they expect... and I can swear that any addicted TEKKEN player can be the director.

I just don't understand why anyone would want to watch a Tekken movie. I mean, the story/character backgrounds have always sucked in Tekken, so why would anyone even be interested? I'd rather just play some Tekken than watch a terrible interpretation of a terrible narrative.

Casting people by appearance means that you'll get people who can't act.

another film that will suck

Please just leave Tekken alone... I dont care who's directing it, writing it, choreographing it, just stop it.

Who the f**k is Jin Kazuya? last I remember Tekken only had one Jin and that's Jin Kazama.

I'm actually somewhat excited, if its the Ong Bak director then at least the action scenes will be good, though it may still be a terrible 'tekken' movie

if you haven't seen Ong Bak yet then you should watch it, It was a sick action film. I may actually watch this.

oh please god no, hasen't hollywood done enough to tekken already....:(

did i read it correctly? Jin Kazuya? LMFAO

Why not do an animated film? then they'd be able to keep the look of the character and they could focus on the story......because people want to see the moves for real.....

Right, and that's why the first MK is still bashed to this day.....

Sonya did her leg grab, Sub Zero froze people, Scorpion had his "get over here!" spear and teleport, Johnny Kage kinda did his shadow kick, Liu Kang did his fireball at the end, Goro.....well he did his thing and Shang Tsung did his morphing thing and it had a good story....

Tekken had a horrible story, about as bad as Street Fighter but nothing comes close to Jean Claude Van Damm and Raul Julia doing their thing......

Even Tekken's creator didn't like the movie......

Just saying....didn't mean to go overboard.....

Although it was bashed by critics, I liked the Tekken movie.  It is very entertaining.

Ong bak was so awesome. remember the scene where those thugs are shooting at him near those gas cans? They explode, then Ong bak comes flying out of there ON FIRE and kicks that guy in head. Holy **** man, boku bada$$.

The only thing I liked about this movie was the chick that played christy... she's FREAKIN HOTT! The whole movie.. ehh..

I actually like the first movie!

........j/k...j/k....LOL

They never learn.

Because the first one was so good?

insult to injury?

please don't

Prachya Pinkaew making a Tekken movie? Sweet! I love his movies.

I wonder if any of the other Ong Bak team is involved.

hmm Ong Bak epicness Tekken: Rise of the Tournament oh plz god no 

plz take off the anna and ninna pornstars image that was awful its like watching really lame porn and i have to even pay to see this movie???? gee they can have their  own way of getting into the toournament without spreading their legs really take that off in the trailer it suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuucked!!!!

"Jon Foo as Jin Kazuya" should be "Jon Foo as Jin Kazama" Gamespot.

A good live action tekken movie can totally be done, the director and scripwriters just need to remember it has to be a martial arts movie were the quality of the choreography and variety of the styles are priority.

why not invest in another GC movie instead?

another one by Sato san :3 i loved TBV.

Jon Jones should play Jin Kazama, not Tony Fool.
