These blurry Tekken movie set photos are kinda LOL photo

Destructoid community member GuitarAtomik just pointed out this "unofficial" Tekken movie MySpace page, and I'll be honest -- I haven't stopped laughing since I clicked the link. 

The page has a gallery of mostly blurry set photos, and gives us a glimpse of what we can expect when this damned film finally hit theaters. Or DVD. Or wherever it's going to be ending up. The photos show a huge cast of characters, everyone from Anna to Jin, Bryan Fury to Eddie Gordo. Also, King. Dear lord, that blurry picture of King up there is the funniest thing I've seen all day.

After a pretty long period of little to no info, I kind of gave up thinking about this film. IMDB has a pretty fleshed out cast and info page, pegging the movie for a 2010 release date. But we're told the film will have its world premiere tomorrow night in Los Angeles, and no, we're not going to tell you where. But if you find it and see it, be sure to let us know.

Tekken should never have been made into a video game much less a movie.

I kind of lol'd at the King one too. The idea of that in real life with his mouth constantly frozen agape while frankensteining someone is amusing to me.

I eagerly anticipate this movie.

...you sure this isn't some kind of fan film that got way -- and I mean WAY -- out of hand?

This was actually filmed a few miles away from me. They were using the same area Year One was filmed. Camp Beauregard in Louisiana, to be precise.

Went by the set a few times, because they're using an old munitions factory as one of those sets. Cool stuff can be found (pieces from the set and what not), but they have since closed everything off.

Given that half the actors were cast based on their fighting skills, I'm expecting good things from this movie. Fighting wise, at least. Itll be shit otherwise, no doubt :D.

Honestly....at least the casting is good...they actually didn't concentrate on A list actors and just went for who looked like who.

at least the busty fighters will be busty, unlike Maggie Q as Mai Shiranui on the KOF movie...

Wow, as a huge fan of Tekken I am unsurprisingly disappointed by this. It looks like a Tekken themed Halloween party, or some kind of cheap cosplay.

Alright...so Bryan Fury is played by Gary Daniels, who played Kenshiro in the live action Fist of the North Star and Heihachi is played by Cary Tagawa, who is in every damn martial arts movie ever made and did the choreography for most of them.

So of course the acting will suck, but the fight scenes will be badass. And isn't that what matters most?

I can say that the line up for this looks much better than KOF. At least it has that?

I don’t care how stupid it looks as long as Heihechi eats an axe......then I’m happy.

Hold on. They're using white girl Kelly Overton to play Black Jamacian Christie?

F.A.I.L.

wait... this pics actually look good. did any of you even bother to look at them? They are clearly taking the time to make the actors look like the characters they are playing.

Brad Nicholson's bicep should play KUMA.

Well I mean at least they tried to capture the aesthetic of the game. Visually its KINDA close to what the games look like.

I'm sure it'll be a guaranteed shitbomb, but hey at least they tried to be faithful to the game.

If I saw one more picture capture calling someone "brilliant," I was going to flip.

I dread to see how they handled Yoshimitsu.
