    Streets of Rage

    Sega is riding high at the box office having scored two hit Sonic films in a row and as they work on plans with Paramount to expand that franchise quickly it was also inevitable that they would look at the rest of their IP's, in a way that they rarely do with their software releases, to see what else could be adapted and...

    No, just no! They would have been far better going with Golden Axe. Imagine a quality fantasy barbarian flick made in the modern times! That would be awesome. By the way, watch Conan the Berberian for the first time ever last week. Man, that was bad.

      I'm not sure a Streets of Rage movie works in the modern-day.

      I mean, a bunch of pissed off cops who go rogue one night and start beating people up until they've defeated the crime in the city? Bad optics in the 2020s.

      And if you wanted a Streets of Rage movie, films like The Warriors already exist.

      Conceptually the games are very thin; I just can't picture a way that this ends up both (1) good and (2) like the games.

        Get the people behind The Raid movies in. Cast some top tier martial artists. Job done.

            You've got to care about the characters and why they're beating people up, but I can totally get behind a gritty trek across the city on the trail of the punks who wronged them.

            100% needs to have amazing fight scenes, though. No shakycam.
            There are some really good choreographers out there now, so there's no excuse.

              To make it distinct I'd embrace the late 80's/early 90's vibe too

                I'd be down for it.
                Needs to riff on the early 90s 'Street' movies.

                    He looks like Mr. X at times in Ash Vs the Evil Dead
