Thank god! This is so what I need after I failed to get the A-level results I needed!

Thank you guys you saved me just in time x

@ Peter Lustige: Couldn’t have said it better…

Terrific! The plot is all over the place.
Seriously, plots come right out of left and right field! And I’ll be glad the film tanked. I’m a guy that says “If it ends, it ends.” Which this version of the story DID do. Jin took down Tekken. Almost everyone is dead. The remaining antagonist has nothing. The end. Then again, this is Hollywood’s dream film…

Me and my friend watched this movie a week after you ahd announced what movies you were going to review. My friend is a huge Tekken fan. I had fun while watching the movie XD The main problem she had with the film was that her favorite characters were killed, expecially the russian guy. she couldent watch it for a little while when I said that he looked a bit like Jim Carrey, when hes doing his female aerobicks winner bit in Mad XD She was actually rooting when he died XD And I just love those assless pants, because they look so ridiculous XD And we had a really big problem with the women basically not fighting. One of the sisters didint actually fight any one, and when there was an official fight, it was girl on girl. Comon, its Tekken, you beat women up in the game a lot. I’m a woman, and I take great pleasure slapping those hos while being Paul XD The story realy elluded us, because even tough tekken is a fighting game, we both enjoy the story mode you cna play with it. Take almost any of the stories in the game, and in my oppinnion it would have been better! but knowing hollywood, they would have fucked them up anywhoo. I would reccoment watching this movie if you knew about Tekken, but wasent a fan, and had a friend who IS a fan, because the greatest pleasure you can get from this movie, is by braking a tekken fans heart and see all the things they love about tekken disregarded, and see them SUFFER!!!!! Well, at least I enjoyed watching that (more than the film) ^___^   (there were so many things we pointed out with my friend, witch you didint take a look upon, but hey, you cant point out the whole movie int he review, then it would be a movie commentary)

Guys, grow the fuck up.

The first thing I thought to myself when I had watched this movie was “The will be a Bad Movie Beatdown”.
However, I hate that this movie is named Tekken, otherwise I would have liked it more. And what a missed opurtunity with NOT doing any Masterblaster jokes about the jackhammers.

HELL YEAH made my day cant wait for more spoony

AHHHH! I cannot, and I mean CANNOT STAND Film Brains voice!
This is the ONLY Spoony Review I’ve ever really considered switching off part way through (and not finished it yet)

Couldn’t be more tired of Break Me.

You son of a BITCH. 

WHY did you have to remind me of Lee’s ending?! I HAD COMPLETELY FORGOTTEN ABOUT IT, SPOONY. I HAD COMPLETELY FORGOTTEN. 

“and Film Brain”
Stopped reading there.

Man, that guy was annoying! I mean, I have nothing against him – I’m not familiar with his work really, but he gave me a headache! Spoony’s best all by himself.

 How do you….you know what? Screw it. If I ever make a Tekken movie, I’m going to
make Roger the Kangaroo the main character and have him solve fighter-related mysteries (like the Mystery of Paul Phoenix’s Missing Dignity). Even that would have more to do with the games than these last two movies.

Also, Film Brain fucking sucks.

A few random notes from my personal review of Tekken:

-watched this movie a year ago, when it came out on international DVD, so you have to know a few good bootleggers…(and I do)

-fight scenes are very well done, but you can tell how diverse a choreographer is by how diverse the fighting is. Other than Edy/Eddie Gordo, everyone fought pretty much the same way, with the exception of…..

-Marshall Law, played by MMA superstar Cung Le. I’m a huge fan of both Bruce Lee and Cung Le, but Law in this movie fought more like Cung and less….MUCH less like Bruce.

-I’m getting my girlfriend pants just like Christie’s…juss sayin….

-Speaking of Chrstie, she fought NOTHING like her vid game counterpart. I remember her in Tekken 5 being just a palet-swap of Eddie.

Just a couple quips, and a plug for the martial arts fans:

FOLLOW ME ON TWITTER! lol

My god, why does Film Brain keep dragging out the ends of every single sentence?
I’m sorry, that just annoys the friggin’ crap out of me..

Thanks for making every one of Spoony’s fans look like total assholes with all your whining and Spoony worse as well by affiliation, next to everyone. I appreciate that. [/sarcasm]

I have to agree with Spoony that this was IMO one of the best video game to movie adaptations, which of course isn’t saying all THAT much. The characters at least looked right for the most part and there was a decent amount of fighting. Still, the setting was bad, the plot was generic and I can’t really say a Tekken fan would be missing all THAT much by not watching it.

Hmm, I’m really surprised to say that I would actually sit and watch this movie off what I’ve seen in this video, a rarity indeed. It looks really stupid, but possibly enjoyably so. I thought the review itself was actually well cut together all things considered too.

This movie was horrid, I really hated it. I was hoping that this movie would get a better trashing but I was suprised by Spoony saying he actually liked it. This movie was such a bad adaption I think other than Eddy Gordo none of the fighting styles matched. Lame story, lame characters, fighting was ok I guess but it was just all strung together so idiotic…Man I hated this one.

I was also disappointed with the review I was expecting so much more…But anyways good job guys can’t wait for the next one.

I liked the movie actually.

Yes, it has lots of plotholes, the story is nowhere close to true to the game, the beginning is pretty fucking confusing and well; the setting sucks.

But; the acting doesn’t suck, the action doesn’t suck and the story in the Tekken game do suck. So overall; good choices. No JCVD makes this movie an epic one compared to Street Fighter.

And one more thing; when they had to show a buttcrack on a dancefloor, they went with a pretty hot one. Sorry Film Brain, gonna go with Noah on this one.

british dude is a little fucking bitch, fuck that punkass… godamn what a little bitch…

Stop molesting my hearing Film Brain! God damn what an annoying voice…

This one’s pretty much a guilty pleasure movie. There are enormous plot holes and the dialogue is mostly cringe-worthy, but then again…Christie in those pants…also the fight scenes were adequate. Did I mention those pants that Christie was wearing?

I really like film brain!!! hes good stuff and im always watchin his new beatdown episodes. 
needed more SYMBOLISM!!!! though :D

also did u know that “turning japanese” is a metaphor for ppl’s cumface ? :D

Since there seems to be so much hate directed at Matthew, let me remind you of a few things:

-He’s playing a character, and his inflection is part of that character’s snarky delivery to emphasize a point. It’s an intentional design choice.

-If you don’t like the Film Brain character, that’s perfectly fine, but calm down. It’s not like he’s not going to be on every episode of TSE or something.

-Both Noah and Matthew are doing this primarily to entertain us, for practically no money. They have a right to do crossovers with whoever they want to.

-I bet most of the people flaming Film Brain don’t have their own shows, and if they do, probably aren’t nearly as successful. It’s easy to sit back and say “______ sucks” when you’re an anonymous person sitting at home taking no risks yourself, but I bet most of you could not do any better, or you already would have.

Normally I’m a fan of of TGWTG crossovers and will always defend Spoony’s right to do them as he pleases but what the hell was up with Film Brain on this one? I won’t even go into his microphone but was he trying to sound like a cheesy announcer from a game show? I do not understand why he felt the need to stretch out the end of his sentences over and over agaaaaaiiiinnnn…

I must admit, I don’t usually watch Film Brain’s stuff but the stuff I have seen he doesn’t do that so why did he choose to do it here? Still an enjoyable review if even despite that one minor annoyance. Just…make Film Brain try to speak like a normal human should you ever do a crossover with him again.

i dont care what anyone thinks i love both of these two and i just want to say nice reveiw on this one guys Spoony for being funny and formal Film Brain for being formal and so damn well british but i am with Spoony on this one i did like this movie but i didnt love it  i liked it for the kickass fighting and right now i am proud to british go on FB 

Ditch the british guy he aint funny I’m more british funny than him

i was really looking forward to this review, then i saw film brain was in it.  think i’ll pass

Ok does Filmbrain have a speech impediment or is he autistic? because I would feel bad if so. But GOD DAMN is he annoying, what possible reason would anyone have for extend the last word of every seeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeentance…

That is so god damn annoyiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiingg….

Filmbrain… listen mate, I dunno why you started that annoying character trait but seriously… its annoying, MOST people find it annoying, stop it. Stop it!… NO… BAD…

I consider the Anime to be a “Guilty Pleasure” but the Live Action movie actually had some ok fightscenes despite some of the random WTF moments and Jin being a cheating douchebag.
 
In the videogames Jun & Kazuya’s relationship was left ambiguous and it was never implied that Jin was born out of Rape. Also the Bryan I know wouldnt give a shit about money or being blackmailed. He was a killing machine with a thirst for battle and as another plot-hole If cybernetics are considered “Illegal” in this tournament wouldnt Yoshimitsu be banned as well? He’s supposed to be cybernetic too.

if you did not recognize it: john henry is obviously shizophreniac ;-) or part of the BORG or the Geth :) your pick.

I was gonna say I was disappointed by this being a cross over, especually since it sorta derailed the review at the end with the “point-counter point” summary which isn’t really in the spirit of a review like this and seemed like it was just catering to how FB does his show….. but I have to admit, that joke at the end completely made up for any problems I had. The Japanese are weird indeed.

Hey guys, could someone upload a version of this review somewhere with that other guy edited out?

Wrestling you make us smile

Film Brain SUCKS but at least he’s no Linkara (also known as the essence of unfunniness). Why these fucking crossovers? Everybody hates them..

Film Brain is annoying… or as he would put it…. I am annoyiiiiiiiiiiiiing, Spoony was brilliant as always!

I remember you once had a post about how your “fans” were so vicious that other TGWTG contributors didn’t like posting on your site. I usually don’t read the comments so I never had first hand experience but jezoz, some of you people act like he’s doing a review with Hitler. Chill, if you don’t like Filmbrain’s schtick – fine. But he’s not the worst reviewer out there and this isn’t the worst review on the internet. If you don’t like FB that much, close the browser and wait for Spoony’s next video.

Story time!

Once upon a time, Doctor Insano concocted a mixture of the DNA of Jar Jar Binks, Woody Woodpecker, Navi, Leo from Transformers 2, Luigi, Slippy Toad, Raiden, Burt Ward Robin, Scrappy-Doo and Wesley Crusher. He spawned a human being from this who’d come to be known as Film Brain.

I hate complaining.  I really do.  I really enjoyed the video, but listening was a bit like listening to the communist chick in Just Cause 2.  If anyone gets that reference.

Holy fuck I hate Film Brain. My god his stupid fucking voice and the way he draws out the end of his sentences. Jesus Christ Spoony NEVER team with this piece of shit guy ever again, for the love of all your fans!! And Film Brain, I suggest you QUIT making videos because you are awful. Purely terrible and I hate you. I can’t stand your voice. You are soooo bad. PLEASE stop doing this!! Please!

Constructive critisism time: Film brain’s delivery needs work…and the speech thing isn’t insermountable, he COULD be good if he did these things and had some funnier lines…

i cant stand Film Brain

The ending was awesome…  Also, yeah, I didn’t like the cross over much as well. I only like.. Film.. Brain? – When he’s in the films.. And that’s once a year.

You know what? I wish this site had a thumbs down option for comments like YouTube does, so I could vote down all you hateful bastards. By the way, awesome review.

Thank you Spoony for bringing back the horrible memory of a video game ending I haven’t seen in over a decade. I will never forgive you.

I think crossovers should stay on the TGWTG site. I come here because I want to see Noah, and this review could’ve been much better if Film Brian weren’t here.He is NOT a good actor, I’m sorry.

Awesome review Spoony,
it’s a shame you got such a whiny fanbase that can’t tolerate other reviewers….

and LMAO at the ending…. the Japanese really are messed up.

SPOONY,Its you we want to see, just you and Your reviews

At first I thought that having FilmBrain in this cross over would be a bad ideeeeaaaa. But then as I watch this he really wasn’t all that baaaad. The only problem I had with him is that the he trailed off at the end of his sentencessssss.

Oh… I know it’s common to complain about movie characters not looking like their game counterparts, but I want to remember that you’re going to do King of Fighters. Oh boy.

Tekken: Blood Vengence came out, or at least it was prescreened at Otacon. It was awful. It has a panda, and that’s it. I know a guy that wrote for Bebop was on it, but it wasn’t the main guy, since the main writer was Keiko Nobumoto.

Why do you do this?  You are very talented, and perfectly capable of comming out with great reviews on your own. You can even pull off great review or v-logs with other people like Linkara, Lord Kat, or your brother.  But wow, that guy was unsufferable.  Could not even make it til the end. 

Looking forward to your next review.

Oh my god… If you’re going to do a KoF review, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE make sure to mention how the characters are ALL WRONG. As far as stories in Fighting games go, as an overall story, KoF has one of the best. In this shit-ass movie, Mai and Iori are in a relationship… which, is FUCKING BULLSHIT. Mai is a TOTAL Andy Bogard Fangirl. Also, Mai looks like a 10 year old boy. Its like they made no attempt at all in finding an actress with any curves whatsoever, never mind being voluptuous. Rugal is played by Ray Park. A squirelly motherfucker. In the game, his sprite was HUGE.

And Kyo Kusanagi is….. A WHITE GUY! A MOTHERFUCKING WHITE GUY! Call me racist, or culture-retarded or whatever. I ain’t never met a white guy with Kusanagi for a Last name. Or with Kyo for a first name for that matter. OR A FULLY WHITE GUY WITH AN ASIAN GUY FOR A DAD.

Aw Spoony why did you have to team-up with someone for this review?
I dont care how blasted I get for this comment, but jeez, why Filmbrain? he gets annoying and hard to understand, sucks the enjoyment out of this review.
Ah well, to each thier own

I’m sorry that the two of you have to endure these nasty comments. Given how quickly this had to be compiled (since Spoony only decided to review the Tekken movies a few weeks ago), this was pretty well done. And I like how they had different opinions at the end. Spoony/Film Brain was probably due for a long time.

Damn Spoony, you have a shit ton of hardcore fan boys.

Your videos are on TGWTG and you do cameos for them all the time, the fact that people think your in your own dimension and never allowed to interact with them seems very odd.

Film Brain has his own style, so your either a fan of him or your not. But most people seem upset over his accent of all things and the fact you even did a crossover at all.

People are also arguing audio quality. I think in this review neither one of your audios were perfect, but I could still hear and understand both of you just fine.

I think people forget that you guys give us all this entertainment for free. In the end, your going to do what you want. As long as you keep making funny reviews Im happy.

You probably get a shit ton of hate mail and mean comments on every video, just like any person in the entertainment industry, so your probably very used to it by now. I only commented because I felt all the hate towards Matt was unwarranted. Instead of giving reasons why he failed as a reviewer, people seem to have just degenerated into schoolyard bullying. You can say you dislike his style or why you feel hes inferior to other reviewers, but to say his slower delivery and inflection of speaking ruined the entire video feels pretty silly.

See you next time Spoony.

While I agree that the fight scenes looked pretty good (that guy playing Eddy Gordo nailed his fighting style), it doesn’t really give all that much to fans of Tekken. It basically rewrites the plot and makes with the characters what ever it wants like the Street Fighter movie. Although fighting games don’t have the most coherent of plots, making a movie based off of them is the perfect opportunity to make sense out of it. The writers could have taken the main plot points and just filled in the spaces with their own creativity, film some great action sequences, and show off the main characters in their glory. However, they instead choose to rewrite the story and give the characters whatever the hell personalities and relationships they want which is kind of a backhand to fans. While the characters with the same names are present in the movie, they just aren’t the characters we have grown to love.

In the end, I do not think that this is a bad movie. It was just given the wrong title. The title suggests that we will be seeing Tekken in movie form and it gives expectations that aren’t followed through with in the movie. If I want to see a random ass action movie, I will go watch one but don’t promise me Tekken if you’re not going to fully go through with it.

Oh my god why the ultimate wet blanket known as film brain why? the second most annoying guy on tgwtg, first being distressed watcher… and I was so looking forward to this review, just my freaking luck. (this is my personal opinion and taste you do not have to agree with it)

So, eh… Final Fantasy X-2 Part 3?

Nice episode, though. :) I love your reviews.

Wow.  Bit of a clusterfudge about Filmbrain since I last checked in.  I’ll revise my statement from way earlier.  His voice still irks me, but after watching a second time, and knowing what to expect, it was still rather enjoyable.  And this UnFurious guy really looks like he needs to chill.

I’ll suffer through this though i have a feeling that, much like the crossover w/Linkara, FB will kinda ruin it for me (no offense FB..when someone else is writing for you & directing you, you CAN be kinda funny…otherwise, ya just don’t do it for me…CLEARLY you have fans though, otherwise you wouldn’t be on the site still, so you must be doing something right, right?)
lets see where FB w/spoony takes us…just as soon as it buffers

So it’s been what, like three-four years since Film Brain started doing this…you’d think he would’ve improved his audio by now.

I usually don’t mind Film Brain, when you actually listen he is pretty insightful like a Brad Jones lite. On the other hand his delivery needs work, You don’t make a sentence more important by drawing out the last word.

OK, intro was pretty amusing :)
 OMG spoony lol the ‘fuck my father’ bit, so bad lol :P
seriously, with those pants, JUST WEAR ASSLESS CHAPS…seriously, WHAT IS THE POINT of pants at that point?
FB why do you emphasize the last word you say in each statemeeeent?
this movie is just STUPID! and then it goes from just stupid, to gross & stupid…but then i don’t do the whole plotless hyperviolence thing.
the review wasn’t as bad as i expected, though FB is still pretty annoying…was ok.
Look forward to seeing what you do next Spoonyone
WHOA WTF was that w/the haihachi in the speedo and the exploding neck tie??? WTF Japan :P lol

Fuck the british dude is annoying. Extend your sentences any longerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr?

I enjoyed the review although I had only a few good laughs.
I do have to say that the collaboration with Filmbrain on this one was a bit disappointing.
I didn’t even know of Filmbrain until I saw Suburban Knights and I found him rather funny then.
In this review however his jokes get old pretty fast, relying too much on sarcasm. Also, the way he stretches out the last word of his sentences really started to annoy me after a while.

Anyway I’m just glad that Spoony is uploading new videos more frequently.
Seeing that there’s a new video on the site can really make my day.

I swear to god Film Brain, end your goddamn sentences!!!!! Christ you are irritating!

That was a fairly decent collaboration, I feel you and Film Brain could be so much fun as a duo

i could not finish this movie when i started watching because it broad me so and i couldn’t get over there half ass characters jin is got to be like 6’5″ in the game here he’s more like 5’5″ oh and steve thats not steve fuck that guy who ever he is the only people they did some what right is the fighters (minus jin and law) and hehachi THIS MOVIE SUCKS  

WTF is up with FB’s mouth? Is it so hard to finish sentences?

I really like the team up with Filmbrain. :)

The Tekken movie was…okay, I guess.
I liked the fight scenes but it takes itself too serious. The whole storyline still evolves around a fighting tournament which makes the dark premise, this movie tries to create, quite ridiculous. Also I’m not satisfied with the choice of characters who fought in Tekken but this is a matter of opinion.

All in all a good review as both sides of the viewers have been represented in the final verdict.

The last review of Film Brain’s I watched was the ‘Legend of Chun-Li’
review he did, and I rather enjoyed that because his opinions kind of
mirrored my own fury at the film. With that in mind, watching him review this with you, Spoony, was kind of natural.  He seems just as disgusted with it as I would have been, watching this film for the first time when I know so much about the proper story of Tekken.

However, as you showed us in the end, the proper story of Tekken is… well… Not always something one can be proud of. Ugh… I remember that scene from beating the game with Lee. That was worse than Heihachi’s ‘diaper’ outfit in Tekken 4.

Anywho, great review :) Film Brain seemed more informative than funny, as he often is, so having him alongside your humor worked well, in my opinion. Looking forward to the KoF movie review!

Yea! You did a crossover with Film Brain! :D

Btw, I can’t wait till you review DOA! I LOVE that movie and I’m excited about all the jokes you’ll make about it. XD

As mentioned multiple times by now, the way FB ends every senteeeeeencee is annoying as fuck and pretty much ruined the whole review, Spoony on the other hand was great as always.

Given the end of the video, I wonder if Noah intends to bother to research KoF enough to know what the movie got right (should be infinitely easier than the other way around – at one point a promotion video for it misspelled a character name, which should let you know how little they bothered; the amount should be in the single digits) – after all, despite claiming to be a Tekken master in a previous video Noah called Michelle Julia in the Tekken anime review, so I’m not optimistic (there’s nothing to be optimistic about that movie, especially for a KoF fan – the game already has a low profile and this further taints and misrepresents it).

Anyway, I wonder if Noah’s aware of a few factoids that might help put things in perspective, such as:

- the fact that apparently the script writer for the movie had no prior experience according to IMDB (and clearly didn’t bother to research anything)

- that there are 4 very short KoF animations made to promote both KoF XI and KoF Maximum Impact 2 (which are in different continuities), the “Another Day” shorts, which due to the inability to cover the background of 2 different games with shared elements yet some differences in plot, went for characterization and very subtle plot references (Iori’s an ass who’s annoyed for losing his flames, Geese bearing weight on people’s lives even after death – the Rock-centered episode – , NESTS still being a concern for different groups of characters after being dismantled, etc…) while making sure to have some fight scenes in those short episodes (at their best, running plotlines in SNK games don’t even need the fights to be interesting, though some and important in the grand scheme of things). So basically, there’s so much plot and so many characters to cover that an official promotional effort knew better than to try with a limited amount of time and resources, but still managed to deliver something interesting and relevant at the time for fans (the Rock Howard episode very subtly covers a lot of things about a character – Geese Howard – that doesn’t even appear there, for example).

- you can find the official plots for the main series games here, by checking the individual titles and checking the team story sections for each: http://kofaniv.snkplaymore.co.jp/english/history/index.php ; vgmuseum.com is also a good source for most endings (though you miss plot bits that play during story mode and particularly before boss fights, which can be relevant at times – Youtube should cover a few at least), and from there it shouldn’t be hard to find remaining info online

- KoF was born of a crossover between 2 different series, Fatal Fury and Art of Fighting, which share a continuity with  decade between them, but are in a different continuity from KoF itself (in KoF that decade-long difference doesn’t apply for te sake of the crossover factor), and KoF added its own characters like Kyo, Iori and Rugal in, along with an expanded mythology (its take on the Orochi legend, the element-based powers of protagonist characters, etc…) and science fiction elements (cloning, cybrog tech, etc…). Compared to KoF, FF and AoF are far more grounded stories that wouldn’t need nearly as many special effects or bullshit plot points, and so would actually be easier to portray in a movie, but were completely ignored – sadly, since a good choice of actor for Geese Howard as an antagonist could have made the movie work well, keeping the move grounded in a urban setting (South Town), yet allowing references to the main KoF stories to be made (Kyo could be a contender in a tournament instead of the protagonist, much like Ryu was a minor character or only referenced in the SF live-action movies), which could have left things open for a sequel if it deserved one. Sadly the film’s staff seems to have just looked at Mortal Kombat and ran a quick search for popular KoF characters (almost funny, since Mai and Terry are actually Fatal Fury characters to start with that have appeared in KoF recurrently…) with little regard to what makes them popular in the first place to cobble something together.

I’m not expecting much from the upcoming review, much how little is expected from the movie itself (deservedly), but if this can help to shed some light on its problems and the series itself, I’ve done my part, even if Noah/Spoony doesn’t read or use this…

hey! i like Film Brain this site is too much on Spoony Sweaty Balls …  Film Brain isn’t that bad at least it wasn’t Benzaie I really hate that guy

Final fantasy X-2 part 3 perhaps?

You know, nearly every time I come to Spoony’s video comments pages, I’m treated to some of the most obnoxious, self-righteous, and ungrateful dipshits I’ve ever seen, and this is coming from somebody who also browses Youtube comments on occasion. Good job supporting Spoony, guys. I’m sure he appreciates your fucking crying.

As for me, the review was great. You and Film Brain work well off each other, so I hope those mentioned above won’t deter you from doing another crossover with him in the future.

Don’t even try playing the “Americans don’t get British humor” card.

gotta love how the movie totally ignores that blond “girlfriend”  after his mom dies :p so pointless to have her there :)

Great review , Spoonz , and nice crossover with Film Brain. I was really waiting for that one to happen between you and Mathew.

also , I loved that part with the “Here comes a new challenger” jingle from tekken 2 when Mathew showed up in the beginning ! ^^

“It takes two to TEKKEN.” that sounds kinda homoerotic. >_>

I really wish you kept the huge eyebrows for the rest of the video , there were the best part of your previous review. XD

and seriously , what’s with the hate on Mathew ?

“WAAAAAH , HE’S ANNOYING , AND HE’S NOT SPOONYZ , THEREFORE HE SUX BAULZ ! ASSBALLZRAPEBITCHFUUUUUUUUX”!!!!11″

seriously , grow up.

Hey Spoony, i have been silent for years but this time i just have to say my opinion. i love your videos, youre so funny, you entertain me and my friends so well. genius. But this time I really disliked like 50% of the video. Its just the way Film Brain talks. So annoying. He tries to imitate a style that needs a cool manly voice as a base but his voice is just as slim as his shoulders. Its not unique, its just sh*t. I’m glad that there are others with the same complaint so maybe he would listen to us one day and just talk normal. Gawd that really made me aggressive for he ruined that video.

Sweet Jesus, why are so many of Spoony’s fans such douchebags?  It’s called an accent, people.  Sorry that Film Brain is British, but get the fuck over it.

Hey, here’s an idea.  Why don’t we comment on the actual review?  You know, about how the back-and-forth commentary was pretty nice, especially toward the end, when the two reviewers compared opinions?  Or maybe about how the movie looks pretty awful based on the review, as it utterly destroys Tekken’s story (I never really followed Tekken, but even I can easily see this)?

But no, let’s all bitch about how Film Brain is “trying” to drag the last syllable of every word he says, even though that’s how he naturally talks.

Having a negative view on someone and sharing it is not childish, pointless, internet bullying or trolling. They’re performers. They can take it. Criticism is fine where criticism is due. Stop beating down yourselves.

I don’t mind Film Brain’s speech pattern (it IS awkward) but it’s true he’s less of a snarky commentor compared to Spoony, therefore less entertaining to listen to his flatout rambling of the obvious. I would sadly like it if we don’t get any more teamups with Film Brain. It was still an attempt to see if Spoony’s audience will like Film Brain, and whatever the final verdict is; it’s still an attempt that is worthwhile.

Those people deserve to be attacked on a personal level. I’m not one of those pansy ass people who tries to both insult people and appear 100% objective, so good job, your response is worthless to me. If people are allowed to personally attack somebody up in that video, they damn well better be prepared to receive the same exact fucking treatment. Now piss off.

So, you’re doing the live action KOF next? Not the CG tekken movie?

BULLSHIT! EDDIE WOULD TOTALLY WIN.

Fuckin’ button-mashing bitch.

I quite enjoyed this, although i did find film brains commentary jarring, he did have some good points and was at times amusing. Cross overs are done to increase awareness of the other reviewers (mostly to increase advertising revenue), and whilst i admit i, like some of you others, would have preferred more spoony, i at least found him more amusing than some of the other channel awesome reviewers. So if you don’t like FilmBrain, DONT WATCH HIM! As for me, i’m glad to see an example of another reviewers style and might even check out some of his other stuff, to see if he did something better than this. Keep up the good work spoony.

I’m English. I would rather see Spoony on his own. Spoony is appealing, FB is not.

It’s been said already but I would have preferred to see Spoony take this alone. Film Brain’s delivery is so obnoxiously goofy yet his writing is bitterly picky and cynical. It doesn’t fit. Sorry FB.

i would like to start off by saying, i dearly enjoy FB’s reviews, but as
in this and in many of his others, the drawn on phrasing at the end of a
sentence is indeed an annoying attribute. but guess what, it may be
jarring at first, but its not that difficult to tone it out after
awhiiiiiiileeeeeee.

so yeah get over it.

and to be honest i dont like cross overs at all much, unless the
participants are in the same room, using the same camera, etc etc.
changing from one sound quality to another, and one picture quality to
another, sort of takes me out of the mood. overall it just makes it look
less polished.

well.. did not exactly love review.. i personally see spoony doing best as a soloist in things like these.

Though i gotta say that its a good review, and i cant wait for the upcoming KOF review.

Some of the early crossovers with Nostalgia Critic (Alone in the Dark anyone) were how I got introduced to a lot of the reviewers I now love. Specifically Spoony and Linkara – and latter Cinema Snob and Lupa – all now reviewers I enjoy despite sometimes different styles and all introduced to me from crossovers. That’s what crossovers are good for.

That being said, not everyone is going to enjoy every crossover and shouldn’t be expected to be. And being entertainers, that means it comes with being able to receive criticism. The review was decent and the interaction between FB and Spoony entertaining. But the review really didn’t do anything to sell me on FB or give me a deep desire to go watch his other videos. I really didn’t enjoy FB portion for the meat of the review and his speaking
style of drawinggggggg the last letter out was pretty
irritating. I’m sure some people enjoy Filmbrain or can ignore the
speech style – great! Some people don’t like Spoony’s rants. Life as we know it will continue. But I won’t go into mourning if we don’t have another crossover with FB.

I am a huge fan of crossovers.  Crossovers are how I’ve been introduced to all the reviewers, both new and old, that I now love (including Spoony).  With that being said, I simply could not stand FB’s amateurish, and unfortunately down right annoying delivery.  I couldn’t concentrate on anything else.  I found that I had already watched half of the review but couldn’t remember a single plot point, scene, or even character that was discussed.  I just sat in dread…waiting for every last word of FB’s lines to be saaaaaiiiiddddddddd. 

I hope FB sees some of these comments…well, the nicer ones anyway.  There’s constructive criticism guys, and then there’s just being mean.  I think FB has some potential as a reviewer, however I know that he will have to change that strange delivery of his before I, and a lot of other people, will give him a chance.

On a completely different note…  I hear Spoony may be single now?  Cause I happen to be single as well…  ;)

Holy crap. Film brain must be miserable after reading these comments. :(
I like the guy but not his vids so much. I don’t know why.

And I thought Tool’s fanbase was bad.

::insert comment here about how Film Brain is annoying::

You all can stop whining anytime now because I’m sure Film Brain nor Spoony cares.  Film Brain has an accent, it can’t be helped.  Neither can his “Southern drawl” (that’s what I’m going to call it because I don’t know what else to call it).  Sure, he can work on it in the future if he really wanted to, but for now the video is up.  There’s nothing you can do to change it.  What’s done is done.  …NAH!

Now, my actual comment:  I actually kind of enjoyed this movie.  My reason for liking it is a bit shallow (Jon Foo’s face), but whatever.  In essence it really isn’t a great movie.  Good fight scenes, but the rest is kind of awful.  It reminded me of Ninja Assassin in some ways.  Spoony and Mat, you guys work great together.  I enjoyed the crossover!  I liked that you two had opposing views.

That ending had me laughing too hard.  The Japanese *are* weird, heh heh.  And I’m very happy to see the return of The Monarch’s Eyebrows!  And of course, the countless pro wrestling references are always a welcome enjoyment to me.

And I didn’t mind Film Brain at all.  Some people here are such babies.  In fact, I rather liked the Pop Tart moment.  I could almost hear “you slobbish American” after “that sounds…tasty”

You didn’t mention that Gary Daniels was in the best fighting game movie sequence ever, where he played Ken Masters vs Jackie Chan as E.Honda and Chun Li in City Hunter :) Gary Daniels was the reason why I was hopeful that this movie would be good pre-production.

I reply to the reply by stating that the replyer is stupid and wrong, then create MORE walls of text. I also call that person a noob.

Spoony are you going to make a video about operation rainfall?

I can’t help but to notice how Iron Fist is not fighting in the….well Iron Fist tournement. Just saying, this movie would be a lot better with The Immortal Iron Fist.

Remember when I said that making a review should take about five days.

Well, the gap between this review and the previous animated Tekken review is exactly five days. So I don’t what to hear ANYONE defending Spoony when he takes three weeks to make his next review.

I understand needing a extra week beforehand to play the game and capture footage and commentary notes for it, especially a longer game like FFX-2. But please get that out of the way before you start making your reviews. Once you make the first of the reviews, fans will expect the rest of them to come out pretty quick.

As intelligent as Film Brain is, he doesn’t really have good sense of humor or timing. His accent REALLY get in the way of his joke delivery. Film Brain, Phelous, and Oancitizen would all be more interesting if they learned how to tell a joke.

In fact, the Cinema Snob makes OanCitizen’s existence feel repetitive. Despite Oan’s character being a bit more fleshed out, Snob’s acting is just more entertaining, and his anger feels real. Oan just seems frustrated, not furious, like he is giving the bullshit that he watches the best of chances.

However, by the time someone says “Newborn porn” in your movie, you no longer have a chance.

I ramble a bit, don’t I?

I really hate to jump on the bandwagon with this one, but I just don’t like Film Brain’s review work. He can be funny in other settings; he was really good in Kickassia and Knights of Suburbia, but I don’t like his delivery in reviews, and frankly, Spoony, your delivery styles don’t mesh well. And I’ve seen you do really good work with other reviewers (Linkara, Doug, Brad, Sage, etc.), so it’s really just a chemistry thing here. I found him more distracting than funny in this review.

That said, I really don’t know what to make of this one. I mean, as a martial arts flick, it’s actually competent. The plot is really, REALLY stupid, but it’s no worse than most beat-em-ups, and it’s certainly much better than the plot for either of the live-action Street Fighters. I know it’s a huge betrayal of the story of the games, and frankly, I think it would have been better-served by sticking close to that than attempting to do this really generic, post-apocalypse setting. The story felt like it was trying way too hard to be The Running Man, and not succeeding. Still, as you said, the characters are recognizable (I was surprised to see that the female characters actually resembled their in-game counterparts, rather than bundles of brittle twigs in leathery skin), the fights are good and the production values are rather high. I think I’ll have to give this one a try when my lady (who is actually a big Tekken fan) and I have a bad movie night. So, thanks, Spoony. This was actually not nearly as painful as I thought it would be.

Looking forward to the next one!

OK spoony, I’ve been requenting your site or quite some time now, after having found one of your D&D 4th edition reviews on youtube and simply having a blast watching all your old work. I get a kick out of almost all the videos you post these days… but this… I had to stop watching the video after the 8 minute mark or so, because good god Film Brain has such a horrrrrrible deliverrrry. I honestly could not stand that little british bastard any further, and as such, had to skip the rest of what I was hoping to be a good review and just move onto your conan review (’cause you and miles actually make for a damn good reviewing duo)

I know the only reason you do these stupid fucking crossovers is so you can make money and that’s fine, I respect that. This shit can get annoying and you deserved to be compensated. That said you shouldn’t be a whore to the nostalgia critic where you have to help push unfunny assholes like this guy. Man it really sucks to watch your earlier videos and how great and simplistic they were and now you got lame shit like plot lines in a review, cameos and ugh….Dr. Insano infecting your reviews. Why can’t we go back to the basic stuff with the occasional shout out to your peers? This is too much.

Guys, you have the right to criticize Brian but please stop insult him. Stick to facts, please

OMFG, this is sooooo bad. The only thing worth watching is probably the chick who plays Christie. HOLY SHIT, she’s hot. Great review guys, loving this.

Uggh the audio for the Brit is horrible, there should be standards for putting crap on the internetz. Invest in some audio gear dude not some built-in mic on your cam. Terrible, just terrible.

Firstly, thank you so very much to Spoony and Film Brain for doing this reveiw. I’ve been waiting for this cross-over for a long time, and boy did it deliver! It was funny, concise it made a lot of interesting and valid points, and was just utterly entertaining.

As for the whole Film Brain issue… I love ‘Bad Movie Beat Down’, I watch it all the time. It took a while to get used to FB’s delivery and style, but I think as time has gone on he’s seriously gotten better and has come on leaps and bounds. His input into the review really gives it a much more rounded and full bodied feel, instead of Spoony just ranting about it as he is prone to do some times.

However, that being said, I really enjoyed it, And if you guys ever felt like doing another cross-over you sure wouldn’t here me complain.

At least in Star Wars and Spider-man the deaths of the families made character development since, here it just is blatant character killing.  Oh and Kain or whatever his name is just happens to remember fighting when he hasn’t practiced it for 10 years or so is so not a plot hole.

FilmBrain is an acquired taste, like anything European.

While I liked the review and thought it described it pretty well, while showing some of the more betters parts, I felt like this should have been a review done solo and now in a duo. I found Film Brain to be quite annoying with his exaggerating of syllables on words at the end of his sentences. I found him, and Spoony too, to be rather dry in this one, but a decent and liked review nonetheless. I, personally, have only seen bits and pieces of this movie- mostly the fight scenes- and I’m rather glad someone did a review of this terrible representation of the Tekken series. Also, while Sppony said the anime was horrendous, I found it to be semi-enjoyable; moreso than the live-action movie.

I gotta admit, I also wasn’t too fond of Filmbrain when I first saw him,
but he’s kinda grown on me. It’s partly the way he speaks, yes, but I
got past that quickly. It WAS quite distracting at first, but I got used to it. It took me a while to get into his sense of humor, too, but I feel like I
understand his review style a little better now. There’s still a lot of
hit-or-miss, and a lot of his more regional jokes still go over my head,
but hey that’s just another joke for me to learn. :D

I don’t think he gets a very fair rap, really… I’m not gonna say I
find him NEARLY as entertaining as many of his colleagues, Spoony
included, naturally ^_^

But objectively, I don’t think it’s my place to say his review style is
inferior, because it isn’t.   But subjectively I find him
more entertaining than, say, Welshy and Mike J, mainly because he’s
just more expressive than they are – Filmbrain doesn’t seem to have as
much of the… I guess dryness is the best term for it… as they do. I think in that perspective his speaking manner works to his advantage. His voice has a lot of variety in it and doesn’t come across as DRONING like theirs do to me.

4:37 OMFG!!! What the hell is that on the TV monitor. That alone proves that anime should NEVER be made live-action.

Hey! The Siege was good film. Or at least I liked it.
I love to know where I can find that ending to the Tekken game on Youtube. I best I can find is somone doing an English voiceover on the top of it.

Sweet, merciful fucking god, my ears are bleeding. Film Brains fake British accent is killing my will to live, make him stop. That accent is fucking horrible, I can barely watch the review because of him. Stop stretching out every god damn sentence you fucking twat and speak normal!

Iliked this movie it’s deffinatelly superior to anime versions. Of course everyone like to shit on movies that are not like they would like them to be. It’s easy to shit on movies but it’s hard to make them. Spoony if you dislike this movie why don’t you do one about tekken yourself ? Now that would be a disaster in cinematography :)

God this is AWFUL. It’s not the accent, it’s how he seems to try way too hard and god-forbid, the way he drags out the end of every SINGLE FRIGGING SENTENCE.
