Watched this last night- the sound was off. All the music is much louder than the dialogue. $:-\$ Was a fun watch regardless. I think I've only seen like one episode of City Hunter and the Jackie Chan movie (lol), but it was filled with music from the older shows and the Cat's Eye sisters make an appearance.

A Whisker Away - June 18, Netflix

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Whisker_Away

Seems very much up my alley. I love cats. I love crying. I love tales of people who can't seem to fit in.

And hey it's directed by Junichi Sato who is my man. I adore the ARIA series so so much. Not sure if people in this thread care about that. But he is also known for directing the first season of Sailor Moon and some of the second. I have never watched SM though.

Because it's being handled by a different director.

Rise is better, especially the full version.

OP2 animation has aged better than OP1 CG, as well.

Oh wait, sorry, I thought you meant the Netflix series. Both seasons of Stand Alone Complex had the same director [Kenji Kamiyama, who directed Season 1 of SAC_2045].

For the record, old WB and Disney cartoons are not boring. But I suppose TPC was restricted in the levels of cartoonish violence they would allow to happen to their IP.

Lupin III: The First is "out" (check Nyaa). The subs are translated from Portuguese and aren't that great, so might be worth waiting if your moonspeak isn't up to par, but for the most part they're adequate.

The plot is very much something you've seen 100 times before, but it was a fun movie. Visually it looks like a lower budget attempt to make a Pixar movie, but the animation is pretty good.

Would love to know when it is supposed to take place- I thought it was maybe the 60s, but at one point they eat Cup Noodles and that product came out in 1971.

For some reason, there were also some scenes that kept making me think of Metal Gear Solid 3 and 5. Jigen in this movie also kinda looks like Snake, lol.

Weirdly it's rated PG 13 despite multiple f-bombs and the shower scene.

There were two versions. One had less swearing and the shower scene was cut- I thought that was the PG-13 one?

Anyway, this was a great movie for the time and what we should have gotten in U.S. theaters. Other video game adaptions were generally crap- Fatal Fury The Motion Picture was good too, but I kind of don't count it as a game adaption since it has an original story and characters.

Then again, if there was no live-action movie, we never would have gotten these amazing scenes.

bork · « **Reply #10282 on:** June 06, 2020, 09:32:27 PM »

A lesser-known lol-worthy line is in the Fatal Fury The Motion Picture dub.

Idk I watched the version on tubi.tv, said it was PG 13, but it's the American dub with all violence, nudity, and language uncensored.

This was the cover from the original release. They probably got the ratings wrong or something on that site.

https://www.vice.com/en_us/article/j5nmd4/jean-claude-van-damme-street-fighter-movie-cocaine-vgtrn

Quote

At the time he was struggling with a pretty serious cocaine addiction, snorting an estimated $10,000 worth of coke a week, and it allegedly made filming a nightmare.

Quote

"I couldn’t talk about it at the time, but I can now: Jean-Claude was coked out of his mind," de Souza told the Guardian. "The studio had hired a wrangler to take care of him, but unfortunately the wrangler himself was a bad influence. Jean-Claude was calling in sick so much I had to keep looking through the script to find something else to film; I couldn’t just sit around for hours waiting for him. On two occasions, the producers allowed him to go to Hong Kong, and both occasions he came back late—on Mondays he just wasn’t there at all.”

https://www.theguardian.com/games/2018/jul/16/inside-street-fighter-movie-jean-claude-van-damme-kylie-minogue

Quote

The rest of the actors recall a frustrating and bemusing experience. “He had the presidential suite at the hotel, with a gym put into his room,” recalls Seth. “Sometimes he wouldn’t turn up on set – the message would come through from him saying: ‘I have to pump up my muscles!’ and that was that.”

Quote

“It was extremely profitable for the studio – it cost $33m and made $105m, so it was good for everybody. People say it’s so dimwitted it’s funny, but we knew it was funny.

“How can you see that movie and think it’s funny by accident?”

Definitely. It was some fun, cheesy shit.

You also get to see Kevin Nash act like he's Jamie Pressly's dad.

I love that Kevin Nash is playing a character who is clearly Hulk Hogan in the games, but in the movie is just...Kevin Nash. Which is a very Kevin Nash kind of thing to do.

Quote from: ExoYZA on June 07, 2020, 06:27:21 AM

Plus it includes both Robin Shou (Liu Kang from MK) and ~~Ryu from Street Fighter's live action movie~~ turns out he played SF Ryu in something different playing Ryu Hayabusa. 10/10

Byron Mann played Ryu. He's not in the DOA movie. I don't get what you're saying here.

And then looking this up, I found that Robin Shou also played Gen in that shitty Chun-Li movie.

It was worded weird. Anyway, I didn't see him listed as playing Ryu in anything. Just Gen in that Chun-Li movie.

Yeah I looked them up and the anime somehow looks far higher budget

The live-action movies are really low-budget and really weird. If you want more of what Jin-Roh is about, you're gonna be disappointed. But if you want weird indie Japan cinema, you'll get plenty of that.

I was talking about the guy who played Ryu Hayabusa, and:

That's Kane Kosugi, not Byron Mann or Robin Shou, which is who I thought you were talking about.

This sentence:

William Gibson named a chapter in his Virtual Light after that movie: "Cruisin' with Gunhead."

I bought and watched New Cutey Honey on Blu-ray over the weekend for the first time. It's not as bonkers as Gainaix's Re: Cutey Honey, but it was still pretty good and had nice animation and production values. Unfortunately, the high production value is probably what caused it to end abruptly after eight episodes.
