Jan 8 2009Trailer for Non-Video Game-Based 'Street Fighter'
Guess what, Street Fighter--you aren't the only street fighting movie that outwardly states its premise in the title. There's also Fighting, starring Channing Tatum as a rising street fighter and Terrence Howard as an underground Don King with the hair of Shia LaBeouf, and here's the trailer:
This guy is so into fighting, he's even fighting subterranean mass transportation! Or is he truly fighting himself? Think about it.

Anyone else notice that Terrence Howard is two first names, while Channing Tatum is two last names.
Coincidence?
In Hollywood my friend, there are none.

Looks like a try-hard remake of "Wrong Bet" to me...

This looks like Never Back Down with a real cast. Still looks about the same quality of movie though.

So that's Channing Tatum?? I've heard about him as both another Zac Efron- type of guy and a major dooshbag.
And he's in Public Enemies? damnit!

Aw man, you totally missed your chance to tie in to one of your other favorite movies - you could have titled this post "Step Up 2 the Street Fighter" - Tatum was in both Step Up and Step Up 2
Did he have bone claws when he was younger?

Dito Montiel's first film "A Guide to Recognizing Your Saints," was decent at best., and it starred LeBeouf, Tatum and RDJ. This doesn't look too much better.

Any name would be better than "fighting", honestly thats the best they come up with?

"So what should we call this film about fighting about?"
"Fighting?"
"Sounds good, lets go to lunch"

Looks like a new age Lion Heart (starring JCVD) where his manager turns on him at the end. HAHHA...none the less, I love a good fight movie. Hope its a goos one.

Channing: "Where are we going?"
Terrance: "We're in a hundred thousand dollar Mercedes. That's where we're going." ...WTF?
..whoever's writing for this movie deserves an Oscar nod
