We love Mega Man. In fact, when Mega Man 9 was announced, we ran around picking up random telephones looking for a way out of what we thought was surely The Matrix. Seriously, how could something so good happen to us? It seemed like a dream. And now, this trailer for a fan-made Mega Man movie by Eddie Lebron is along those lines. It's like the guy broke into our
But, in all seriousness, what is the deal with Dr. Wily's 'stache? That thing looks rabid and might need to be put down.

As I asked elsewhere, why is Dr. Wily played by William Murderface? Why did they, aside from Dr. Light, purposely get the ugliest possible actors for every role?

wont it get tiring after mega man dies...again, and again, and again?
Also that Dr. Light is awesome, i went to rub his beard

Though I dislike the chosen actors for Roll, Wily, and a little bit for Megaman, it's sort of ironic that if Mega Man was a comic instead of a video game, I would have seen this advert last summer.

I think that dr. Wily actor is amazing... I think he captures exactly what dr. Wily is. He's stern and alittle excentric and his stache is totally awesome. I think hes the best actor out of the entire trailer followed by Dr. Light. Honestly through some money at these guys and some better actors , alittle hollywood spit shine and i think we have a winner.

The story looked like it was coming together in a compelling way.. but man.. the characters are so bad!
Megaman as a fully grown asian dude in a bike helmet? No.. god no..
At least make him a young teenaged asian dude..
Also that Mega Buster looked like him shooting from a severed hand. The visual details of this are all horribly horribly wrong. And really if a Mega Man movie were to happen, the visual details are really what matter.

FanMade, no budget, does it till a bell on yer head?????

Lol, I don't know about this. A Mega Man movie would be cool, but it should be in CGI. A kid dressed in a ridiculous suit with a stupid looking helmet just seems weird to me. Plus, Mega Man doesn't have a shaved head.

I've seen worse. Honestly, I'm rather impressed. You always have to take indie movies with the understanding that they can't pull off the best of the best. What they've done here is on par with some early Power Rangers shows. Very good job in my opinion.

Funny - it reminded me of the original Power Rangers series as well.

It says is coming 200X, then it means is coming 2009, because if it is coming after that it would be 20XX :P

Either Mega Man is a 10 year old boy or nothing. No sale.
And no live action either.

As I'm assuming they didn't have the budget to make the music for this trailer, does anyone know where they got it? Or more specifically, the one that plays at the begining?
eddy @ Nov 27th 2008 10:10AM
I knew from the very first bars of music that it was Steve Jablonsky's score from Transformers. Unfortunately, it took me out of the whole Mega Man mode since that music is forever associated with Transformers for me. :P
That said, great trailer nonetheless.

looks amateurish like it's going to suck
