Trailer: Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney


6:00 PM on 11.07.2011



You probably have seen some footage floating around of the Takashi Miike-directed Phoenix Wright film adaptation, but now we finally have a proper trailer without floating Japanese heads. Of course, if you don't know how to speak or read Japanese, you might not gather much from this Japanese trailer. However, Capcom Unity has some of the goods about the trailer.

The film should be following the plot line of the first game, which should appeal to those familiar with the DS franchise. More importantly, Miike's driving for as much honesty to the source material as possible, as seen with the wacky hairstyles and captions (which will hopefully be in the film and not just edited for the trailer). See, why couldn't Dragonball: Evolution have at least stayed true to the hairstyles?

Comment away, internet! Let us know how you feel about yet another video game adaptation. I'm honestly not all that keen on the Ace Attorney games, but knowing somebody credible and awesome like Takashi Miike in control gives me faith.

Review: Berberian Sound Studio

Before I ever saw Dario Argento's Suspiria, I knew the film for its sound. It was back in 1996 in high school and I had yet to find a video store in my area that carried a copy of the film. I'd read up a lot on Argento and Go...

The Raid 2: Berandal will be bigger and "more cinematic"

Did you know that The Raid: Redemption director Gareth Evans co-directed a short for the upcoming V/H/S/2? It's true, and it's freaking awesome. It's by far the best part of either V/H/S film, so I was extremely excited when ...

BFF Review: Black Out

Two things struck me when the opening credits of Black Out came on: 1) there was a lot of style and flash in a good way, and 2) the festival's digital copy was low res. As the text appeared, so did fuzzy squares and breaks in...

Review: Sunny

Let me just put this out there: Sunny is an absolutely amazing movie in every single way. Everything I say in this review will reflect that. If that's all you wanted to know, you needn't read any further (though I h...
