The King Of Fighters trailer is awful, hilarious

Wire fu! Fists of fire! Explosions! Slow-motion! A man yelling "NOOOOO!" at the sky! Voiceover man saying "The fate of the world will be... in their hands!" Fret wanking! Could this be the most clichéd trailer ever? Yes!

Aha, this is fantastic. Some bright spark saw the huge box-office haul made by movies based on beat 'em up videogames like Street Fighter, Mortal Kombat and Dead Or Alive, and wanted some of that sweet cherry pie for himself. Hence, The King Of Fighters, starring Ray Park and Maggie Q.

If you can get through this entire trailer without sniggering once, you're a more mature soul than I. Ray Park wearing a poncy scarf? Some dude using a bin bag as a weapon? The music from The Dark Knight suddenly seguing into delicate strings to footage of a woman being stabbed in the ribs? Which then segues into widdly-widdly guitar rock?

This looks to have about as much cinematic worth as Ryu's ending scene in Street Fighter II.
