Mega Man: The Movie

SAY WHAAAAAAAAAA?????

Yeppers! The 94 minute Mega Man feature length fan film has finally gotten released for all to see!

In all honestly, you can totally tell its a fan film being funded with whatever spare change they had in their pockets but for what it is, it STILL beats both previous Hollywood Capcom video game movies (Street Fighter movies).

There was a bit more I would have loved to see expanded upon like Wily's decent into madness a bit more... or more hinting about what he gave up/lost to work with Dr. Light on the robot series but overall for what it was, I'd have to say it was pretty damn solid!

I personally have to applaud Eddie Lebron with what he has managed to do here and get it all to work.

An action b-movie but an enjoyable one!

Even if it's a direct rip of Casshern as long it doesn't have long drawn out spirits-within-esque scenes I'll be happy.

You mean Casshern WASN'T a Mega Man movie? ;P

But I wish these guys had the budget Casshern did... could have used a bit more CGI work.

And the beginning of the film is a bit drawn out but I think it was well used to establish the setting and the world as well as the already rising conflict between Wily and Light.
Rock isn't even "Born" till about 20 minutes in.

I would say its still worth a watch since its not like you are paying for it or anything!

Watching it now. It seems about 70% flirting between Rock and Roll, and 30% hamminess from Wily. They should have spent the budget making epic eyebrows for Wily.

Interesting how closely they followed the story in relation to Blues' background. Actually a lot of things.

Made Blues a bit more powerful than I would have liked though.

Edit: My favourite take on the Megaman story will still always be MS Paint Masterpieces.

Anyone know where this is available for download, or is it only going to be streaming on ScrewAttack for a while?

No idea Magus.

I watched this a few days ago.

I'm still not sure if I like it or not. The oddest dichotomy is that I was pretty sure I liked it until Rock became Megaman. I enjoyed the acting and the interplay between Rock and Roll and Dr. Light, but the actual fights were just so completely terrible. Just ugh.
