Maggie Q = Fail


I was surprised at the amount of threads on this chick but I'll throw my 2 cents in. I have nothing against her (she was good in Balls of Fury) but she is completely the wrong chick for Mai. IMO Mai is the hottest KOF character and Maggie isn't all that attractive she's not hideous or anything though. Besides she's Chinese, I'm pretty sure Mai is Japanese.

Look! Two women *beep* a polar bear.

ROFL! Maggie is gorgeous and the only major name-actress I can picture playing Mai. She is perfectly casted. Most fanboys seem to want some unknown model, or worse, someone who doesn't exist, to play a video game or comic book character.

Maggie Q is a great actress, and she has international appeal (meaning, she can open a movie and garner press in different areas based on her name recognition alone).

reply

Maggie is half Vietnamese. We'll see how she does as Mai, although there are Asian women that looks more like Mai then Mag Q.

reply

Truthfully the only problum I have with Maggie being casted as Mai is her breast size. Forgive me for saying but thats one of Mia's trademarks..

If I had a choice to cast somebody to play Mai, it'd be Yoko Matsugane 0_0

reply

Honestly, Yoko does look more like Mai than Maggie. Sadly, she ain't well-known in the states. So that is pretty much the reason why Maggie or Kristen Kreuk gets the roles in video game adaptions. Not to sound bias, but they look a little too white to play pure Asian female characters. Yeah, I know they are half-white in reality, so whatevers....

reply

Yoko is not actress nor matrial artists and actually her boobs are too big for Mai (no, I'm serious).

reply

hell... Aki Hoshino is famous enough in the US to japan-fanbois and she can definitely do cheesy acrobatics just as well as Maggie Q without looking like a half-white trannie when she's not smiling.

stupid hollywood execs.

Video gamers complaining about the breast sizes of real human beings not matching the ridiculously idiotic proportions of the animated figures designed to excite 12-year-old boys of all ages who still play video games. Who would have seen that one coming?

reply

12-year-old boys of all ages who still play video games


"still"??

Also, I think the films like that should actually star "animated figures" and "real human beings" should only provide voices.

(That or just giver them CG boobs ;) )

reply

I think that Yoko chick would be a bit much if you catch my drift.

Look! Two women *beep* a polar bear.

reply

Mai's boobs weren't very big in the early games.

reply

this is the first appearance of Mai (Fatal Fury 2). maybe they based Mai on this ugly mug...

she's always been at least an Asian E cup.

AGREED!!!
Mai is the among the hottest chick in video games (Im pretty sure the biggest twins too)
Maggie will be a shameful cast...

reply

Sean Faris = Fail


I'm going to shove coal so far up your stocking you'll be coughing up diamonds!

reply

Maggie Q is hot.

But Maggie Q does not have the tits to play Mai.

reply

Now she's Vice.. xD Go figure..I wonder who changed that.

--X-marks_the_spot--tume-X--

reply

I don't know what people actually see in her. For an Eurasian, she looks so plain and average. I probably puke more than getting excited about her wearing Mai costume.

reply

Honestly, I've seen actual Asian girls cosplaying as Mai on Youtube that looks more like Mai. Its sad that they can't find an actual Asian person to play their parts. Still, I wish Maggie the best.

reply

And I've some who look EXACTLY like Mai.

Not to mention the perfectly made outfits. But that goes without saying. Only amators may achive this incredible feat of creating a proper costume in your home (or buying one ready in a shop), the big film studios may only try and fail.

reply

Well, she was good bad Mai in Live Free or Die Hard.

reply

Mai is japanese. i was so upset about that choice. mai is the hottest anime character ever i mean did u see "fatal fury the motion picture"?

reply

Hey but u never know she might get implants,lol. It's possible

reply

Maggie Q is hot. I do not care much for breast size in women, but come on. Bad casting here. Mai's outfit on a flat chest does not look good. Maggie Q is not even normal sized. She's below normal (size AA). Will she look good as Mai? No. Will they have her wear some other costume and totally ignore mai's iconic outfit? Yes, most likely.

At least Kelly Hu has normal sized breasts. I mean Maggie Q is renowned for tiny boobs.

reply

The funny thing about Mai is that with her outfit, so many people THINK she has the largest bust size of all the KoF/SNK characters. But in fact, she's way down there compared to Angel, Shermie, Iroha, even King has a larger Bust than she does.

reply




Somebody Tell me what movie is this from because its believed to be what she is wearing in the movie,however she looks hot in it.

Why cant Maggie play Mai?
Check out this picture

Push up bra works wonders so I dont see the problem. Shes got the martial arts/action pat down too. And guess what? She's hot.

reply

All I can say is, remember Street Fighter, the movie?

reply

They should've used Maria Ozawa as Mai...

reply

Yeah, becuase Maria Ozawa can act, fight and even actually looks like Mai... NOT.

If all you need is boobs, take anyone and give them a CGI-upgrade or whatever.

reply

Would it be wrong to say Lindsay Lohan, even though she is not asian, let alone Japanese?

[Great music at http://cdbaby.com/cd/kakaveny]

reply

I just have to ask, whlie Maggie may not be the right bust size, why has nobody on this board brought up an actual ACTRESS to replace her with? So far the names mentioned have been av idols, or japanese models with large breasts. At least Maggie can act, can somebody please find a replacement that is a fair combination of of bust size and acting ability?

Really guys...tits don't make a movie.

reply

Aoi Sora can act just as badly as Maggie Q AND she has the tits for the role.


--anti-dubber.

reply

CG or even traditional F/X people can give any boobs to any girl. Or a guy for that matter.

What's up with you people.

reply

and that's exactly what the Asian market wants, a pair of DoA tits. =.='

no. and even live action vers. of DoA has the sense not to use CG tits.

again, Aoi Sora can act the part, IS Japanese, and has the body and face for the role. Maggie Q can act as well as Aoi Sora, is NOT Japanese, and requires days of wasted money on CGing her tits.

WTF?



--anti-dubber.

reply

Boobs - special effects people can give anyone any boobs you want.

You can have even a disembodied huge pair of tits in space in the films nowadays. Shooting lasers from nipples.

There's no problem. None.

reply

Would it be wrong to say Lindsay Lohan, even though she is not asian, let alone Japanese?


Yes..yes it would. That would attract so much hate and bitching it'd be funny and sad at the same time.

I'm gonna get you, like a spaceboy. Whoa whoa whoa whoa!!!

reply

To be honest Kelly Hu would be a better choice

reply

no because Kelly Hu's face has 0% innocence. (as in she's cheap whorish)

you might as well suggest Lucy Liu since so many white people seem to think she's pretty... *vomits* no offense, but Americans and Asians(real Asians, not ABCs) have a VERY different view on who's hot and who's not.
