Worth pointing out: about a year and a half ago Sega was planning on making movies and TV shows based on their IP. This seems to be a part of that, and isn't the first movie Sega has announced since then. A Shinobi movie was announced earlier this year as well.
Cool as hell, nice to see that deal wasn't just a fart in the wind. Hope we get a few good flicks out of this.
Most people don't know what Rent a Hero is, but its concept lends itself nicely to a movie, even for those who don't know the game
If this movie has the theme song that was used in Fighters Megamix then I will go see it opening day.
