Disney's upcoming movie is about a video game villain that wants to become a good guy. They showed off some footage at a film convention this week and the footage they showed featured Zangief, Kano, and a Pac-Man ghost at a support group meeting for video game characters. Sounds like a video game Roger Rabbit which would be awesome.

This is interesting, but I would like to see a trailer or something. The film is not 8-bit though right? It's like regular 3D animation?

I heard about this last week. Also, I think that Dr. Robotnik is supposed to be in it as well.

:( Most sites posted it today.

Characters in the support group scene include:

  • Bowser from Super Mario Bros.
  • Doctor Eggman from Sonic the Hedgehog
  • Kano from Mortal Kombat
  • A Ghost from Pac-Man
  • Zangief from Street Fighter
  • Coily the Snake from Q*bert

@Tim_the_Corsair: I have no problem calling him Eggman after Sonic Generations. They actually handled that shockingly well.

Oh I'm sorry, do you still call Mario "Jumpman"? Of course you don't.

If Mario's original name was "Mario" and was called "Jumpman" to this day we would call him Mario because Eggman is a stupid name.

I feel like I heard about this exact same thing (movie about video game villain who wants to be a good guy; support group full of notable video game villains) like a year ago. Am I making stuff up? Someone tell me I'm not crazy.

I'm interested, but I would like to see a preview first. I've seen the poster, but it doesn't really tell me much about the movie.

There was a post on here about it a couple months ago. I have no idea how long ago information came out about it. First time I heard it existed was from the post I linked.

That's exactly the thread I was thinking of. Man, this semester's been hell if I thought two months was almost a year ago.

It's all in good fun.. I remember messing with many people back in the day over Street Fighter characters names. Call Akuma Gouki, then everyone wants to fight you, it's pretty funny.

Why did it take this long for someone to notice this?

The sequel should star Andrew Ryan or Alma. Yes, that Alma.

Okay. What this is truly missing is...

Liquid Snake. He would constantly shout out his name in his awesome voice for everyone to hear all the time. He attends rehab for cocaine addiction and OCD about saying his name.

Dimentio. Just for the fact that he is fucking awesome.

Kefka. A mad clown that actually won... awesome. He should just be in the background messing with the characters in some way.

Agent York from DP in a mental ward writing a script for Deadly premonition 2. Wouldn't that be awesome Zach?

The main character of dark souls who has massive PTSD.

Commander Shepard saying that he denies anything about his video games ending.

Frank West, he photographs Peach nude and sells the pictures to Bowser.

Sora from kingdom hearts as a fanfiction writer in these characters basement.

Gary from Bully who is constantly pissing everyone off.

Kid from Psychonauts crying with a bottle of beer, saying that the man shut him down!

GTA3/VC/SA characters hanging out together in a bar making fun of GTA4 characters constantly.

Simon Belmont killing the old dic cartoon version of him while Dracula helps.

Storm 1 from EDF2017 who also has massive PTSD and constantly shouts. "THE ANTS!!!!! THE ANTS!!!!! THEY BLOCKED OUT THE SUN THEN ROBOTS CAME AND MURDERED EVERYONE AS THE ANTS ATE THEIR CORPSES!!!!"

Ganon comes into the room and randomly spouts off to Bowser on how much hatred he has for princesses and tries to go... gay for bowser...

I can come up with more if needed. But yes, this better fucking be good!
