DOA Coming to the Theater Near You

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the at-long-last dept.

pamri writes "DOA: Dead or Alive, the movie based on the Dead or Alive video game series is set to be released on August 25. The preview images and the trailer point to a more Charlies Angels 2 type fluff than a serious action movie. The girls are also seem friendlier with each other, in odds with the intense competition in the game." I tell people I bought a 360 for Oblivion. But I really bought it for the ladies of DOA.

    Another hollywood movie with absolutely no substance, and being based off a video game will probably condemn it to begin with. Does the MPAA actually blame pirating for declining sales?

    "...the most inaccurate representations of women..."

    Its otherwise known as fantasy. Why would I want to pay 10 bucks to see ugly fat women in movies and games?

  3. Not pretending by El_Smack · · Score: 5, Insightful

    At least it's not a self-proclaimed "Serious Movie" that has the female actresses bare their breasts and shake their asses because "It's Important to the Plot".

    It seems more honorable to me to sell the movie with "Hey buddy! Hot chix kicking ass, and you get a couple peeks at the goodies!"

    Kinda like the Man Show, no pretentions, no redeeming values. Just girls on trampolines.
