Second Fan Made Street Fighter Video Released

@ Dynamo tanx dude or if ur not a dude den dudess newyz tanx 4d comment...yeah I know wat u mean bout it lacking the dsign of legacy but come on u gotta admit 4 $400 dey did a pretty damn gud job.

i'd say a few grand don't 4get they had the rain effect and all lol....as far has casting goes I wouldn't mind Tom Cruise playing ken he's got the look just needs a bit more muscle.

Those are both pretty damn awesome. I liked the speed and music of the new one, though.

Both are amazing but if I'm to be honest... I'm not sure either one is better than the other.

Legacy - has better costumes (more believable cast)
- was better filmed (camera shots & angles)
- had superior cinematography (making it look more professional/expensive)

Beginnings End - has better choreography
- has better special effects (showing the rounds was a hit for me)

I would love to get the best of both worlds... maybe one day we'll see a Street Fighter movie done properly. I do agree with you SOLO DOLO that this franchise has the potential to make the best CBM ever.

@Solo
Yeah I'd consider myself a pretty big Street Fighter fan. Im more about the mythology then some of the games. I really need to get around to buy Super Street Fight 4 :(

HOLLYWOOD, FORMULA SO SIMPLE, JUST DO IT THE WAY FANS WANT IT DONE AND YOU MAKE MONEY...WHY DO THEY CHANGE THINGS UP? JUST DO IT THE WAY FANS WANNA SEE IT..FAN FILMS..THEY TELL YOU ALOT

How About This?

I like the second one but not as much as the first one. The fight scene was cool. I just couldn't get over Kens Hairdo it's hideous. lol

Legacy surpasses Beginning's End in every single field but the special effects.
But the thing about B.E's effects is, althought awesome,
they felt "thrown" in just for the sake of it when compared to Legacy's.
That goes against its cinematography and takes away the epicness of it IMO.
All Legacy would need is to brush up their FX (and find someone completely different for Akuma)
and they'd have a perfect film while B.E. has a lot of catching up to do.
B.E. might have showcased the character's accurate "supermoves" but
Legacy accurately showcased the characters' whole fighting styles
as well as their physical depictions to perfection.
It looked like the game came to life
while B.E. only looked like an entertaining kung fu film.
They are oceans apart in terms of quality adaptations IMO.

parascythe- Gary Daniels SHOULD have been Ken in Van Damme's SF bomb!
And how weird is it that the most accurate portrayal Chan did in there was Chun Li???

No disrespect to either of these fan-made productions, they're both great.
However, they illustrate exactly why there will never be a good Street Fighter (Mortal Kombat, fighting game etc.) movie. It's not about the fight scenes. Quite frankly, as these 2 videos show, it's not hard to make a great fight scene. The problem is story.
A movie simply about a fighting tournament isn't enough, there has to be an emotional conflict, romantic interest, etc., etc.. So when anyone tries to write a Street Fighter (or any fighting game) movie, they try to come up with these other elements to fill out the story and script. And it never works.
As much as I love the games, these types of games have almost NO potential as a feature film. Better off looking at projects like Halo...

solo dolo- True, Legacy looked like it had a better budget.
But some of the stuff they nailed better than B.E didn't require much more budget than what B.E had.
Forests are forests, rain is unnecessary, fighting choreographies should costs the same,
actors should have cost the same, the writing should have cost the same, slow-mo is free
and since B.E. had the better special efects, other than wardrobe, i can't see where Legacy's budget would make their film better than B.E.
I thought B.E's wardrobe was fine even though Legacy's was better. It didn't affect my opinion at all really.
From begining to end, i felt Legacy was a better product and money isn't always the key IMO.
Ironman cost 100 million dollars less than Superman Returns yet... which is the best film?
I think that if B.E took FREE pointers from Legacy in their character portrayal
as well as fighting choreography, they could very well have the upper hand without spending an extra dime.
Just a few tid-bits but starting with getting an American to play the part of Ken with natural blond hair would boost B.E's quality tenfold.
I'm sure Legacy wouldn't have gotten as good reviews if they had put an American in Ryu's place.
In terms of fighting, both characters have a very distinct style that should be portrayed accurately,
and i'm not talking about the "special moves" that require special effects.
Ryu and Ken shouldn't look and fight like the newest kung-fu stars that came out of China.
That affects the adaptation aspect tremendously. And the part where Ryu has his bandana on already and ties it right before he fights,
as if he didn't have it on, is kind of a no-no continuity wise. Even though the animated feature had Ryu with only his "gi" to climb the himalayas,
it is more believable for Ryu to try to travel incognito as he did in Legacy. That's free character development that only took a few minutes to shoot right there.
But B.E is definitely still a very high quality of fan film! Compared to alot of them out there,
it's definitely one of the best right along side "Batman: Ashes to Ashes" and "Graysons".
It's just that Legacy is in the top notch of quality right next to "Batman: Dead End" is all.
