Now...I'm not too familiar with the anime Tekken movie so I'm not sure how closely it fits with the video game. But cinescape has a blurb on a live action Tekken movie based on the game.

Quote:
Variety reports that DRUMLINE director Charles Stone will be shooting brutal brawls in his future. Stone has landed the task of directing the live-action TEKKEN movie, based on the Namco fighting game of the same title. The film is a co-production between Japan's Gaga Communications and Steven Paul's Crystal Sky Group and is budgeted at approximately $60 million dollars. Stone will segway into TEKKEN after he completed his next assignment, Bernie Mac's new comedy MR. 3000.

Oi... I like the Tekken games... but I don't want to see a liveaction version. The anime was pain enough. X_X

And here I thought this movie was left for dead, it was announced something like 2 years ago and not a word about it since.

Well, It could be goo:!:-- *get flashback of G-Savior* OMG! Kill, KILL IT NOW! <(Anime dazed)> ZOMBIES!!! AHHH!

The anime truly was one of the WORST I have ever seen and Although a live action movie would have some potential, I doubt it'll be any good.

Any who the heck is the director? I've never even heard of him.
