Devil May Cry Movie to Bring Sword, Snark and Bullets to the Big Screen

I don't care, this movie can not turn out worse than the so called "Reboot" of Devil May Cry, a series which DID NOT NEED A FUCKING REBOOT!
DMC is already a weird action thingy. The good thing about this is that they can't possibly make it wrong except if they make it into a musical.chinangel said:
No offense but as long as it doesn't go all 'girl power' like resident evil did (although it would be more forgivable in this franchise) and characters do resemble their game counterparts. I want this to be good but considering the director has Kane and Lynch and a lack of action movies on his resume that sounds more like a forlorn hope.
Actually that would be interesting, a devil may cry musical, how often do you see heavy metal musicals about killing demons and acting like a douche. To say the least it would be unique which is more than most Devil May Cry things after the first game can boast.ImprovizoR said:
Yeah, it's going to be horrible.
For me, the action in DMC3 was where it was at its best, silliest and most fun; the story was interesting and it covered a hell of a lot of the mythology behind the game.
This adaptation will likely be a pretty generic "look at our special effects" type movie with little connection to the game other than loosely dropping in a few characters and expecting us to be impressed with the bare minimum.
I honestly didn't like any of the RE movies; they were cheap, dull and predictable. The plot in all of them (if you can call what they had a "plot") was nothing new and was more obviously just a method to part fans from their cash without actually putting any effort into the actual production.
They might as well have Uwe Bol or directing the DMC flick; it's the kind of quality I expect from them. I could be wrong, and I really hope I am, Honestly, I hope this doesn't suck as much as I expect it will but I'm not getting my hopes up.
I'll be expecting a generic script, bad acting, cheap effects and no real connection to the subject matter, anything better than that is passable, but, as a DMC fan, I'm pretty much expecting this to get on my nerves as much as the Transformers movies annoyed its fans.
Let's seriously hope I'm wrong.

Please do not mention ewe bol. You will give them ideas. I want this movie to have good action and by that I want fast paced battles with many demons at once and maybe one on-level rival (the vergil). Minimum slow motion. The story should work just enough so that it isn't total waste yet doesn't harm the action.k-ossuburb said:
To sum it up: I just want this to be good, it that too much to ask?
I think it'll be good. They changed a lot with the Resident Evil movies, but how much could they possibly change for this? They made Resident Evil action-y, which isn't neccesarily what it's about, then that can only work for this. It'll be a bit hard to make it entirely unfaithful though, because at least it'll be Dante kicking ass, not some chraacter they made up. Over the top action is what this needs.
