This is potentially exciting news...

After all, I had such a blast with the games that I actually borrowed them, beat them, bought them, and then beat them again. And the anime was just f***ing awesome.

Then again... it IS a Hollywood movie, and the same production company as the sad-looking King of Fighters film, so there's no real track record to speak of.

I'm actually more surprised that someone other than me actually gives a crap about this series.

I hope they split this up into two movies. The first half of the anime was my favorite part of the series so I would hate it if the film mostly revolved around the second half.

It'll probably be set up like the first game, with the supernatural stuff occurring in the here-and-now, and flashbacks to flesh out the story. If they did it like the anime, it could be a possible trilogy (Part 1 - Working for Millennion, Part 2 - Grave's Revenge on Harry, Part 3 - Events of Overdose.)

What do you base this statement on? I mean, you seem to have insider info, no?

It's called a guess. I never said anything of it being fact.

Ah, crud. I read it as "It will probably be set up" in the sense of "This is what first ideas look like" and not "I'm guessing that." Sorry.

No prob. And I apologize for being a little curt in my response.
