(3-27-08) Van Damme on the new SF movie??? According to this
interview, Jean-Claude Van Damme was asked to play the role of Guile
in the upcoming live action Street Fighter movie, but he turned it down because
he's wanting to pick his roles more carefully and do films he'd rather be proud
of than box offlice flops like the original SF Film.
. at
least he was smart enough to turn it down... i mean, come on guys... guile
should be able to speak english correctly... right?

(2-8-08) Soul Calibur movie script! Your faithful webmaster
was privileged to read the first 10 pages of the SC movie script (rough draft)
straight from 2nd degree media... While I'm not permitted to post the
script itself, I can tell you that there was a shark, nocturnal creatures
falling dead from the sky, Sophitia killing someone, a look into the childhood,
growth, and resurrection of Cervantes; and Siegfried & Raphael are
apparently cousins... Yes, cousins. That's all I can say for now, besides the
fact that after reading the script, it kept me wanting more. When I first heard
about a SC live action movie, of course I had my doubts, as many of you did; but
honestly the script so far hasn't disappointed me! The film appears to be off to
a good start, and my sources have told me I'll be able to read more soon!

story will follow Ivy, searching for an "ancient relic" that her
father had been searching for when he died (the SoulEdge), and her discovering
what it is, while putting herself in the middle of something bigger than she
ever intended to. That's all the story details I have for now... Even
though the film is supposed to be live action, my sources have also sent me a
"conceptualized" rendered image of Siegfried for the film! ...Check it
out while it's hot, and remember you saw it first at TFG.
