Will this turn out like the Twisted Metal movie?

IE a bunch of stupid hype from the "director", and then when he gets all butthurt about it he decides not to show it to anyone?

Edit: Roll is ruined. Fuck this movie.

Actually, if you read the writer/director's blog you will see that this trailer was actually his inspiration for wanting to do this film.

I personally think it looks amazing (especially the CGI) for a film thats all fan made and no budget.
Can't wait for the full thing to be out in a couple months.

11-21-2008, 08:32 PM
Seriously, though, I honestly think this "portrayal" (lightly used term here) of Roll is one of the single most irritating and annoying things I have ever seen in my life. EVER.

How any director worth anything (or even a worthless director) called cut and print after her delivering any of those lines astounds me.

What the fuck, man?

Then I read "I really want to the full movie now" and my head exploded.

I really want to the full movie now too.

Rush isn't until Megaman 3, sorry. Even then, he's not really a a flying dog.



But seriously, I really would like to see this movie. It makes it look like it's actually taking place in the year 20XX, instead of a cartoon fantasy world =)

It's a form Rush takes in the game. I think what friendlyHunter was saying is that Rush's normal form is a regular robot dog in all of the Mega Man games from 3 on up. So I guess this means that you're both right.

And, like many others, I, too, thought that Roll was a dude at first.

Maybe the really annoying stuff I've seen in movies make her look tame, but apart from "You are special!" and the "lost cosplayer" look, I don't have a problem with Roll. Acting in the finished product will probably need to be graded on a curve. Otherwise, awesome so far.

LOL moment: Wily. Omar Sharif as "Killer on the Loose."

Haha, sorry for the confusion - I meant that rush is a flying dog, not a a flying dog.


As for Roll's acting - really, she's a robot! I think she acted like a robot very nicely =D

Thank you. My stomach hurts from laughing so hard.

Anyway, I'm going back to the movie here, and the characters seem spot on in terms of personality, but they look drastically different from what I'd expect them to look like. I don't see why everyone is still appalled with Roll (maybe she should of bleached her eyebrows to match the wig, seriously), but it looks like an enjoyable internet movie and I have to commend the people responsible for going through with it. I'm looking forward to it. My biggest complaint - Dr. Wily is really funny and his voice is cool too, but he SHOULD BE BALD IN THE MIDDLE OF HIS HEAD. SHAVE THAT FRIKKIN' HEAD, YOU HEAR ME?

So I actually did get around to watching this trailer, and you know what? I like it. For being a fanmade film, it actually looks better and truer to the source material than even the big budget Hollywood films.

I'll be looking forward to seeing when it comes out.

Hold up, since when does "orchestral Dr. Wily theme" equals "Bay Transformers soundtrack"? By that reasoning, most orchestra remixes on this website could be "raeping" the originals.

I wouldn't go that far, people were saying good things when it got test screened at MAGFest. I'm holding on to hope here, most video game fan videos I've seen I thought were really good (MGS Philanthropy, There Will Be Brawl, etc. And hey, even if it does suck, at least we don't have to pay anything to see it.

The first trailer has Transformer's music.

Oh, my mistake, then. It's been so long since I saw the first trailer, I thought he was reacting to the new one. In which case, I retract what I said earlier, there's much better film music to crib from than Transformers.

There Will Be Brawl is how you do something relatively low-budget and succeed.

Totally. A good plot and characters always beats special effects.

Umm, you didn't see Hero of Time, then. Latino goron man? Blonde-wigged Link? Horrid excuse for plot? Yeah. That was a debacle.

I actually skipped seeing Hero of Time because of all the negative things being said about it, mostly from this forum. I know that totally goes against what I said earlier about "even if it's bad, at least I'm not paying for it", but ah well. I seem to remember something about the filmmakers of that posting here acting like it was the greatest film ever produced, but I may be wrong.

So... I just finished watching it (it's available on screwattack.com) and I have to say... it wasn't that bad. There are numerous references to the original game (including sprites and such), and it's all around not too bad. There are things I didn't like, but overall the little references outweighed that stuff for me. Go watch it if you want to!

The movie was pretty good for fanmade. better than anything I could do. While the CG was glaringly obvious, they interacted well with the environment. When I first saw the robot masters, I thought they were statues.

My favourite Zelda movie is by far The Legend of Link (LoL). Pure awesome.

Emperor Charlemagne
05-08-2010, 07:11 AM
I thought this was pretty good, for a fan-movie.

There is a whole lot more sincerity here than in Hero of Time, or rather, Hero of Shit and Asian Gorons.


It was cheesy, but in the good kind of way, and actually enjoyable.

I'd have to agree with what the general consensus says: it's pretty good for a low-budget fan film. Some of the CG was pretty hokey and I agree that the fight scenes were awful, but I found myself pretty entertained for the length of the movie.

And seriously, they found the perfect guy to play Dr. Wily. He was a stereotypical villain, but at the same time very believable.

Not amazing or classic, but it made me smile. It was enjoyable, which is great for free! Nothing like paying for a hyped moving and discovering it sucks. Watching a free movie with caution and enjoying it when all is said and done? Success.

I think Roll could have had a nicer wig though.

The Author
05-09-2010, 06:50 PM
I'm impressed. Yes the acting was off, and the CGI was bad at times, but truth is, they have the scenario thing covered. In a fan film, I can accept bad special effects and average acting, if you can see the intention of the movie hitting the target.

Wily was well established as villain, Light was pretty much how I imagined him to be, and Roll was obnoxious, but it was a character trait more than anything. Yes it suffered during action sequences, but hey, CGI is a bitch, and try filming good action sequences without a proper budget if you make a sci fi movie about robots fighting. I don't really like the use of Blues, but I can see why they did it.

Overall, this left me quite satisfied.

Emperor Charlemagne
05-09-2010, 07:03 PM
I think Roll could have had a nicer wig though.

"Hey Rock, does my hair look fake?"


I never got the whole "Rock/Roll" thing until this movie pointed it out to me, lol.


What I loved about the movie in a kind of cheesy way was how Light was a total giant dick towards Wily.

"Well Wily you helped me build these Robot Masters, so I'm firing you now!"
"Oh I'll do the interview by myself sorry Wily no one cares about you!"
"Wily you have to rethink your priorities while I rebuild my dead wife's children!"

It's funny in a "if you think about it" kinda way.

Mirby

Well Light is a douche, even in the games. Says so in his Database entry in Megaman & Bass.

Pretty much this. Considering it was all fan made, this could have been a lot more craptastic than it wound up being, 'even' the CG battle scenes, so I'm willing to forgive. Now, if this had been on the big screen or you had to pay to watch it on DVD or something, I'd tear it a new one, but this is nowhere near as bad as, say, the Mario movie. Hell, I enjoyed this more than Spirits Within, but that might just be me. =/

I found a download of the film's OST (get it here (http://hybridtwo.com/?p=179)), and yeah, other than Protoman and Wily, the rest of the tracks are your standard orchestral film fare. Not to say it's bad (it's from the same composer for MGS: Philanthropy), it's just generic.

And as far as EC's comments go, that's interesting that this filmmaker is working on a Ghostbusters project, seeing as how relatively well Mega Man turned out.

See, with fan made movies, you can't really say it sucks because you double think yourself and realize it was a fan made movie. But you still want to say it sucks.

Honestly, I had a lot more fun watching the Super Mario Bros. movie. I enjoyed the Super Mario Bros. movie mainly because I knew from the get-go that it wasn't going to be faithful, and that it knew how to keep things at a slightly professional level. With the Mega Man movie, it's incredibly tough to stay faithful without making it seem, I don't know, lame? Throughout most of the movie I felt like it was just too boring and expected. The Metal Gear Awesome cameo and the inclusion of sprites from the actual game just seemed tacky.

The thing is, it tried hard to be what a professional film is, but kept the parts that make it obviously fan-made. That's probably what's bugging me most about this film. It's tons better than an average fan-made movie, but it hit that middle area where it seemed more like a really badly written, poorly acted C-list movie.


But it's a fan-made video, so I can't really say anything, can I.

Not really a douche... I think they tried to portray him as unable to read others... Wily had been plotting against him for a while, and he didn't see it until he reacted in a very knee jerk fashion. The acting wasn't there, but the idea that Light is more comfortable with robots is logical in regards to the series. Hell, if his social interractions were with Roll, he could be a douche and still end up not having consequences since she was always perky...

Anyway, I don't think the characters were any real issue there, like I said the writing was the strongest part of the movie and every character felt complete.

Why don't fan films use ADR? I don't get it. It's such a basic technique that doesn't even require any money, but makes the dialogue sound so much better.

Don't you guys think you sound kind of lame when you say "THIS RAPED MY CHILDHOOD". I mean, it's only like one of the most melodramatic internet forum cliches ever.

Anyway, movie was alright. Good effort on a low budget, certainly better than most would ever be able to go through with and pull off so I'll give him props for that. It got a bit tired with the find bad guy, fight, repeat. The dude playing Wily looks like he really cared and invested himself in his role and every time he was off screen I was patiently awaiting his return. The actress for Roll was bad, but I actually really disliked Dr. Light's actor. He seemed way too distant and...I don't know. He just seemed really off to me.

Anyway, big thumbs up to the dude that played Wily.

You went about this name changing business very quickly!

Jeez. I'm glad I didn't watch this at MAGFest. Even if it was absolutely fantastical, a 90 minute movie during the exhaustion would have done me in.

Despite all the comments that have already been posted, I don't really see any that indicate whether or not it's worth the watch. That's a lot of time! I'm not a HUUUUGE megaman fan. Is it entertaining enough to justify the time? :3

I have connections. x_x <3 At any rate, as for the movie, I'm not sure I could tell you, I've loved Megaman since I got my first nintendo console. >.>

It just amazes me since doing any amount of CG is way more time consuming than ADR, and more expensive also. Not to mention good ADR makes your film seem way more professional than bad CG.

Another thing that's just as likely is that the actors couldn't do more than X weeks of shooting or whatever. So they wouldn't be able to do ADR, and just as likely is that they don't have the proper equipment for good ADR becuase they blew the entire budget on bad CG.

Or its my first reason. CG is sorta necessary for a movie like this, becuase animatronics are more difficult to pull off than CG, CG is more time consuming but....

Possible reasons? I could be completely wrong. I just like playing Devil's Advocate to glean knowledge. :)

They could've had some real lulzy costumes instead of the CG.

But at that point you have to wonder: "What would've been worse?"

I dunno. I didn't think it was all that bad. Pretty much the exact way I'd expect a major film company to do it, just on a lower budget.

I agree with whoever said they liked Wily's actor. He seemed to be the most engaged in every scene.

I loved Wily's actor, haha. Everytime he showed up I was nodding my head. Other than the hair cut, I think that guy was perfect for the role. ^_^;

Just finished watching the movie, and I'd have to give the director props. I can't help but be giddy at the end of 90 mins of movie script that was actually faithful to the original story! Uwe Boll should pay these guys for directing lessons... props to Eddie Lebron for that.

My critique? Glad you asked! Acting was more than I expected, and I'm being straight up... I didn't expect to see a Mega Man Movie, so I already win.

Dr. Light could have used a few acting lessons for about the first 20mins or so, but seemed to get it down later in the movie.
Roll played her part excellently... I don't remember her in game where she wasn't annoying as hell!
Iceman won the award for COOLEST ROBOT MASTER. (Get it?)
Elecman could have smiled a bit more for being the only effective boss that wasn't yellow devil.
I can't stay positive and think about the CG fights - the spirit was there but there just wasn't enough meat on them bones.

All in all, my overall opinion is thus - 1 Fanflick watched, childhood memories and glee are STILL INTACT! Good times.

Get ready for some BLUES PAUNCH!!!

Finally saw it today courtesy of the DC Anime Club, and I agree with most of the opinions displayed here so far. CGI was hit or miss, and some of Dr. Light's lines were a little too much and partially cliche. But overall, I enjoyed it a lot. I liked Roll a lot more than some others seemed to. BLUES PAUNCH was by far the most awesome scene in the film.

Also, I got a nice surprise; Eddie Lebron, the actor who played Mega Man, two producers, and the CGI artist all came to this screening to answer our questions. Pretty badass of them.

Way better than I was expecting! The acting was quite good considering the low budget, the script probably needed a bit more work and the film was in dire need of better editing but the story did hold together over 90 mins which was impressive.

Loved the Wily music toward the end :)

My opinion: biggest problem is the complete lack of any subtlety in the script and direction. I mean, Wily was a great actor, but the way his intro scene was scripted, he might as well have just looked into the camera and said "hi, I'm Dr. Wily, and I'm the villain of this movie."

Granted, we know he's the bad guy, but still a bit more depth and subtlety in the writing could have made this movie a lot better.
