Devil May Cry is an awesome game, but it's not the type of game that lends itself to becoming a movie. The plot is very bare-bones (Dante goes into a possessed island, progressing through levels while killing monsters), and the cast is very small - Dante is alone most of the time. That can occasionally work (I Am Legend), but it's very hard.

In order to make a DMC game, you would have to write something drastically different from the game. At that point, you're basically writing a weird combination of Silent Hill and Constantine.

Did that lion just jump into that women's stomach? I would probably enjoy this more than the actual movie that's coming out just for the WTF factor.

Actually this looks like it is so bad and deliberately comical that it will be awesome, Ninja theory's take on the other hand has no excuse just offers a guy who looks like an emo instead of the demon fighting rock star (not literally) we know and love.
So even though Ninja Theory have declared they are taking the series in a different direction it still hurts that much? Something as little as changing the appearance of a character means you rate it lower than this minute video.

Would it have helped if he wasn't called Dante?

This...I think I'd get more enjoyment out of this horrible movie than I would out of a horrible game that rapes the original franchise.
You haven't even played the game...

I find such random hate so amusing, nose put out of place so much by a character facelift.

Regarding the trailer: $100 budget movies are always good for a laugh.

Huh, you've got me there, to be honest most of the change to his style doesn't bother me that me, mainly its his hair.

As for how much I'd care if it wasn't Dante I'm not sure, I don't know how much attention I'd even give the game were it not for the fact it was a Devil May Cry game.

I'd also like to point out the only reason I'm interested in the movie is that it looks so bad and goofy that it is good, I wouldn't be so positive about it were it not for the comedic tone, if it looked just bad bad I wouldn't have posted my initial comment

Yeah, how dare they do something completely different with a character and franchise that will remain completely unchanged regardless of what the latest installment does. Or have I missed the part where Ninja Theory announced that they would manipulate time and space to erase old Dante from existence?
I'm not begrudging them for doing it and they have every right to, I'm not saying that they shouldn't have done it merely that it doesn't match up with my interests and so I haven't paid much attention to the game. My rejection of it is "fair enough but not my thing" instead of "how dare you!"

That was simply comic genius. A whole new genre. What has been seen cannot be unseen.

OBONSAM BESU is also my new favourite phrase.

Funny since recently Korey and Co-Host from Spill.com talked about the movie 2016 which is also from Ghana as well.

The DMC movie trailer is no exception to the unintentionally WTF funny movies that Ghana has to offer. Makes me want to watch it on that basis alone.

Oh god, it's been so long since I've been able to use this:



That may have been the best piece of mind-fuckery I've ever seen.

But I feel like it's funnier as a trailer.

Just, you know, a general correction:

"Still better than Capcom's"

You know. Since they did it. Which we all heard. A while ago.
