Devil May Cry Live Action Movie

This could be either good, bad or as I predict, completely on it's own from the games but borrows frame for frame combat or imagery from the games most popular moments like the RE movies.

Anywho, there's the small bit of information here. I hope they don't screw this up or turn it into another cash cow series which confuses the games even more than what Ninja Theory will probably do.

Can't say how good or bad it will be, must wait for at least a trailer.

 

I don't know if I'm looking forward to this. I mean, look at live action adaptations, such as Dragonball and Death Note (although Death Note wasn't that bad). Personally, I think they should leave it at five games, a manga series and an anime.

 

Oh boy.. Another failed attempt to milk a franchise. I'd like to be proven wrong but..., i doubt it.

 

I just hope that this doesn't make the series worst, I mean come on! We've all seen the DMC trailer, oh god.........

 

No. No. Tell me this isn't happening. This is not happening.

Oh god. DMC is becoming a joke. A market. Game over man, game over. This is dead in the water before it even begins.

 

I will probably watch this if they keep in that one "LIIIIIGHT!!!"-scene.

 

The only thing that will be good about this movie is the action.

 

So far, everything seems to be pointing towards a Resident Evil style movie franchise. I.e. A movie following characters nobody gives a toss about while the actual games main characters are easily killed, badly casted and cause the general public who've not played DMC before to follow the film as the "true" version.

I have a horrid feeling this movie will have some connection to the next DMC, possibly being more closer to the messed up garbage Ninja Theory showed or Nero instead of the real Dante and still somehow getting everything wrong.

At this rate DMC could go down the shitter, unless this somehow is a glorious save which could bring a lot of profit into the series like the Onimusha movie was probably going to do.
Then again, like the Onimusha movie, this could get cancelled.

 

I haven't played a lot of Onimusha, but that seems like the perfect fit for a movie deal. It just has the right aesthetic for an action film. If that got cancelled, I'm less than hopeful for this; the DMC mood won't translate well to film, no matter how much the cutscenes show it off like one. It will take copious amounts of effort, effort that a group won't give who's just looking to milk the wrinkled udders of the cashcow.
