new street fighter movie

so i read a while ago that they (being...the universal they...they who are not ....me) are going to make a new street fighter movie, something not so cartoonish as the last one (i dont mean the anime one, i mean the one with jean claude).

now im all for this, i mean people continually complain about how the movie companies remake perfectly good films. king kong, halloween etc etc. well this was a bad bad, horrible movie when it came out. its possibly the worst movie version of a game. so remaking it is ...in fact a good idea. i mean surely you can only go up? and i like the concept a fighting conpetion to determine the worlds greatest fighter, friendship, betrayal, revenge, tradition and honour are all central themes to this movie, and done right it might not be half bad...

anyway more news coming in today is that they have cast several characters

kristin kruek (lana lang off smallviell) will play chung li: thats really not too bad a casting, i mean she have to learn ahell of a lot of martial arts, but shes a decent enough actress. although i question whether she looks quite right for the part as chung li is ment ot be chinese

chris klein (american pie) will play Nash: nash is one of those characterintroduced much later in the game, and im not very familiar with him, but again chris kilien is decent enough. so lets see.

rick yune (the guy with the diamonds in his face from die another day) will play gen: not this is an interesting casting, i think this guy is a good actor. what interesting is that gen is a much older guy, so im curious to see how they pull this off

finally

micheal duncan clarke (green mile, armageddon) will play balrog: INSPIRED! this is a great casting he has just hte right build and character for this role. very well done. big brutish, and you can sence that power just looking at him. great casting.

soooo i must admit i an intreaged about this movie.... i want to see who they cast as guile and ryu. of course if you ever want to see the perfect guile, watch kurt russell in soldier. he looks so much like him, acts quite like him too.
