Street Fighter: Assassin's Fist

[Snake Plissken]

Did anyone notice the actor who played young Gouken looked more like adult Akuma, and young Gouki looked more like adult Gouken? I wonder if the roles were switched last minute.

Was thinking the same thing.

 

[krec9]

this is getting alot of buzz the creators deserve the attention its very well made.

 

[Snake Plissken]

I sure hope we see the sequel soon, or at least news of it actually happening.

 

[Frank Jaeger]

Is it supposed to be like an ongoing series with seasons of if they make more?

I thought it was like a film and not a series

 

[Kibagami]

I agree the guy playing Akuma was perfect he was awesome .

Joey Ansah. Yeah dude, he was ripped; he was in The Bourne Ultimatum. Which was a great movie.

 

[Kibagami]

Is it supposed to be like an ongoing series with seasons of if they make more?

I thought it was like a film and not a series

Yeah. Back to back, it was practically a movie.

 

[Frank Jaeger]

That's cool, I thought it was gonna be like a movie

Much better as an ongoing series even if they are back to back, I prefer it that way

They can flesh more out and if they carry on the way they started, it will be a hard thing to top

Yeah, they did that with second season of Mortal Kombat.

 

[Kibagami]

And Ryu needs to get lean.

 

[noisetrigger]

Apparently, it will eventually be edited into a feature length movie for the dvd/blu-ray release though due to the episodic nature of this series, it might not flow as well as a conventional movie.

 

[Snake Plissken]

And Ryu needs to get lean.

Yeah, he really didn't seem smaller than Ken, but damn was Ken's body fat low. Lay off the Ramen

 

[Kibagami]

He needs P90X.

 

[Snake Plissken]

He needs P90X.

Or Body Beast I've done both, he could definitely benefit.

Just finished the series, oh man it is AWESOME! Not that there's much out there but this is certainly the BEST live-action adaption of Street Fighter and it goes STRAIGHT to what SF is about; the Story of Ryu & Ken! The character portrayals were great, the script and dialogue flowed well and it was paced perfectly and not overburdened by the transition from the past to present and back again. Excellent flow. Amazing work by Joey Ansah and his entire cast and crew!!!

I hope they do another season. Given that Ken and Ryu are embarking on their warrior's pilgrimage, it should be reason enough for them to start encountering the other Street Fighters, as well as learn how the world is affected by Shadoloo and Bison.

Yup, just finished it as well. I hope it gets enough attention and then awarded with a bigger budget. And more time for Mike Moh to get shredded. Seriously, the martial arts choreography was real great. Seeing dragon punches got me giddy.

Great interview with Joey Ansah on making this a reality. Also mentions that Resident Evil is another favorite VG franchise of his and would love to do his own accurate film of it if the rights ever go up for sale.

 

[Ryu]

That was awesome. I can't wait to see more!

 

[Destro]

I liked the fact that Ryu wasn't shredded like Ken and was a bit stocky. Makes sense, since he's the physically stronger of the two.

 

[Convotron]

I just finished watching season one and I thoroughly enjoyed it.

I really like how SFAF doesn't rush into trying to fit in a bunch of characters. To me, the main strength of season one is the way we see the history of Gouken and Gouki/Akuma in order to understand Ansatsuken's significance as well as the role shared by Ryu and Ken as the inheritors of the martial art. Ryu and Ken are normally criticized for being boring and "vanilla" characters. I feel that season one has given the characters a bit more depth.

I really enjoyed the fight coreography. It was dynamic and incorporated signature movements from the games without being too goofy. I also like how the actors were athletic in physique. I know the character designs from the games are extremely muscular but Moh and Howard looked convincing as young martial artists secluded in rural Japan for over a decade for old school martial art training instead of guys from a city who work out on weights as much as they train in martial arts.

I hope that SFAF gets renewed for a second season. Joey Ansah apparently said he would like to look at Chun-Ali and Guile as the main characters of season two. Scott Adkins was said to be someone Ansah would like to see in the role of Guile.

 

[Snake Plissken]

I just hope Guile's flattop isn't over the top, and more subtle.
