14 DAY TRIAL // Looks like Atlanta's Shadow Motion Pictures aren't that busy working on Devil May Cry fan film, as they have revealed that they are currently producing a live action Tekken film.
The name of this short film is Tekken: King of Iron First and it hasn't also received any authorization from Namco. The film is directed by R.L. Scott who describes its plot on his blog:
"The story takes place after the defeat of Jinpachi Mishima at the hands of Jin Kazama. Jin becomes the new ruler of the Mishima Zaibatsu Corporation. Along with that power he inherits its problems. Namely... the vow of revenge set forth by Bryan. A bloody battle ensues with a shocking end you won't want to miss."
I guess this fan film won't rise up to Hollywood standards, but it will probably be interesting to watch. Just looking at the preview pics I can see a not so bulky Jin Kazama. If my memory serves me right, Jin was a big strong guy, and not a skinny-looking dude like the character in the picture. My grandmother could beat the crap out of this guy.
Maybe Tekken should have its own feature film, as other fighting games do. Street Fighter has a couple of movies, Mortal Kombat also, why not Tekken? I'd like to see you play Nina, or Christie. In the role of Nina I would cast Jessica Alba (she'll have to dye her hair to a full blond) and Christie would be played by Kristanna Loken. Wouldn't that be something?
