This will be showing in Manhattan, NYC in early August, you can find more details on the official site.
JUstin Wong le mete bien duro a el sf pero es bien come mierda y me cae mal por ser tan guillao pero en el otro ladfo Daigo se ve mas umilde y me cae bien por eso que pena que el que representa a los estados unidos es de otra nacionalidad y no un verdadero americano.
Nothing but trailers!?!? Will this shiiiit ever be released before Jwong retires!?!?
Also Going to be interesting if they are going to show the "Rise and Fall" of Justin in EMP and now to Evil Geniuses.
I like how it is said that Daigo is not a National Champion. LMAO. No you're right.. He is the WORLDS Champion.
EHh this wreaks!.. Prob would have been a better Documentary if it was about MARN. More interesting kat...
alot of ppl cant decisively beat daigo. stop trying to look cool and smart by being one of tho "rebels" that hate on justin wong. justin wong is clearly one of the top players in the world. so would u kindly plz disappear and go be negative somewhere else in the world
GSWAG
Justin Wong isn't a top player in the world. He is the top player in the U.S. but that is about it.
He goes to Japan and gets no where. Japanese people come here and he get's no where.
You have to beat these people on a regular basis until then he's just a big fish in a small pond.
Daigo's english translated made the whole trailer an epic win
It's unbelievable how low the collective IQ remains here. So many of the commenters are just overwhelmingly ill-informed but feel obligated to offer their inherently incorrect takes on everything.
Justin -has- been to Japan, and he -has- won matches there. The Japanese players as a whole are not as great as many of you perceive them to be--you just see more of the ups and downs of the American players because they are more readily accessible to you. Daigo is phenomenal, but it's obvious that his lead over Justin is closing; whether Justin will be able to top him consistently remains unseen (and unlikely, in my own opinion), but you kids are in for a rude awakening when you see the Japanese players at EVO this year versus some of the US greats.
And @#20: People care simply because it looks like good entertainment, same as with I Got Next. It shows an in-depth side of the fighting game genre--much like no one would have been interested in a movie about Donkey Kong (ala King of Kong) until they got to see it for themselves. Those of us who don't feel as if we must downplay and insult every challenger to Daigo are able to enjoy Justin's play and personality, as we have with many other top players.
Oh, and, at Seasons Beatings 4, Justin beat Daigo in the Winners Finals. As per our beloved EventHubs.com:
"Winners Finals: Justin Wong defeated Daigo Umehara 3-1 in the Winners Finals. Wong picked Fei Long and played a great set here. Justin punished Daigo many times when he did Ryu's Crouching Hard Kick. Daigo made many adjustments on the fly, but it wasn't enough as Wong had Umehara's number with Fei Long. Daigo's classic composure looked shaken after wards."
Daigo came back and won the main finals, but he has beaten him before as evidenced here.
I rather see Justin guest star in Dirty Works with Mike Rowe and work a real labor job. Before you haters start hating:
1. I'm not dissing his skills
2. You know you'd rather see Justin doing laborious stuff than watch a hour of people (as some people call it) d*** riding and random clips of his fat fingers moving lol.
Y'all need to chill with all the jwong hate. Not like any of y'all can beat him so lay off the scrubby hate. Its true that Daigo beat him a number of times but at least he can take him on. Not like any of y'all whinners can even last 5sec againts Daigo or jwong
@#26: You know that Sanford Kelley destroyed Daigo -twice- in two different team matches, right? I guess not.
If Daigo is the best in Japan and Sanford, who is not even the best in the US, has beat the best in Japan so convincingly, I think you're in for a bit of a shock soon.
"If Daigo is the best in Japan and Sanford, who is not even the best in the US, has beat the best in Japan so convincingly, I think you're in for a bit of a shock soon."
That's cute. You think two minor victories using CONSOLE characters against ARCADE players means something.
I really doubt Sanford will even make top 8.
Get lost.
Seriously late on this crap.....wonder how empire feels about it heh. And really, who wants to watch a bunch of d***riders talk smack in some cut up flick that amounts to not much more than the 2 trailers we've seen...
The Japanese players coming to Evo are going to shut down a lot of this garbage trash talk, watch.
WOW I love when Sanford beats Daigo with Cammy they give the Daigo has no experience against console characters but when Luffy beats him o ya he's the best Rose in the world. I also like how JasonLee is trying too out smart everyone LOL big fish in a small pond right JasonLee LMFAO what a DUMBASS.
Teapo thats damn right I completely forgot abot that Justin did beat Iyo and Iyo was considerd the best in Japan at that time but soon to be hold Daigo then took the crown from him but Iyo is still considerd the best Sim in the world. Klotzek JWong is going to show you why Euro is still not on U.S level yet at ESWC this weekend.
@Flawless: Welcome to EventHubs.
Everyone can make excuses for Daigo all they want, but he will lose on occasion--there is no excuse for them being "console" characters. Daigo has played thousands of matches online now and the game has been out for ages--if he can only play effectively in an arcade, maybe he shouldn't bother with anything but coin-op.
Mourne you just proved how dumb you really are with that post.
The Sanford matches in question were from Seasons Beatings IV. A Vanilla tournament.
During that time Daigo didn't play "thousands of matches online". He didn't play any. He was an arcade rat.
His online play is only a recent phenomenon because as we all know SUPER has no arcade.
Sanford knew he could not beat Daigo with his two go to characters(Sagat and Akuma) so he decided to up his chances by using a character Daigo had the least experience with. The console character Cammy. Even then it was close.
Justin Wong tried the same stunt with Fei Long intially knocking Daigo out of winners but having to face him again in the Finals.
Of course by this time Daigo had already caught on to Fei Longs tricks so Justin couldn't really rely on those and Daigo reset the match 4-2, then took the finals 4 to 1.
After this Daigo and Justin then had a first to 10 with Daigo winning 10 games to 2.
Finally, after all this Daigo went on to play countless money matches against all competiors. Including Sanford whom he beat cleanly.
These are facts not up for debate.
@Mourne
Yep, Daigo has lost both in the US and in Japan. However, the numbers certainly push Daigo above everyone else. He also comes out the winner at the end. While I can't confidently say Daigo will win at SSF4 at Evo or ESWC if he attends, I will say that he still stands above Wong and anyone else. But hey, Wong has to win someday right?
I do agree that a lot of players d-ride Japanese players. While I think the top players of Japan are better than the top in US, it's hard to make a fair judgment unless they actually play each other.
Actually, I wasn't even referring to him having played it in time for the Sanford match. Daigo was not the best player in that match--whatever excuse you want to make for him is just tough, champ.
I am more referring to the fact that here (and on YouTube), anytime Daigo loses, they always have an excuse. If it's one of the characters that weren't on the arcade version, they moan about the fact he isn't used to the match--despite the fact he's played countless matches even at the time of those matches. If it isn't that, it's lag. If it isn't that, it was Daigo's friend playing. If it isn't that, Daigo was testing a new playstyle. If it isn't that, Daigo was only "downloading" his opponent for a rematch.
If Daigo really was the best in the world, he would be accustomed to all means of competition, whether they be from the arcade version or otherwise. If he wasn't prepared for the Sanford match, then that is his fault and you will never hear him making excuses to cover it (because, unlike you lot, he's a real competitor that isn't as arrogant as his "supporters").
One fun fact to add to yours: Arturo beat Daigo, and with Dhalsim. I guess Dhalsim is barred from arcade play so Daigo couldn't possibly be accustomed to the match-up, right?
Can you just give Arturo and Justin and Sanford the credit they deserve? Whether they can beat Daigo handily or not really doesn't matter. What matters is that the Daigo fanboys just cannot accept that he can lose just because he did not execute well enough as opposed to his opponent. I enjoy watching Daigo matches as much as anyone, but--unlike most of the people here--I don't feel a compulsive need to have a panic attack anytime he loses and instantly rush to find a quick defense.
I guess we should put Inthul in the same boat as everyone else too just because he knocked out Sanford and Arturo. Inthul is now a top player in the U.S. according to your logic. But we all know this just simply isn't the case.
The idea that a lone victory or at best Sanfords TWO some how makes these people on par with whomever they beat is just ridiculous.
@Lets_Fight_Like_Gentlemen:
Finally, a reasonable person. I agree wholeheartedly that Daigo is the fiercest competitor and that his track record proves he is the best, consistently. However, that doesn't give his fanboys an excuse to immediately hate on anyone who can give him a run for his money--hopefully we're on the same page there. Personally, I like to see the clashes between all of these players with conflicting styles and MOs. Whether they be Japanese or American or Australian or English, we should be focusing on the actual matches and not trying to insult them just because they can take on one guy.
Instead, so many of the people here act like they have been personally and vehemently -wronged- by people like Justin Wong, when all he ever did to them was pose a threat to another person playing Street Fighter.
Inthul was absolutely on top of his game that day, and anyone who tries to take that away from him is just acting as I've described above. He isn't a top player in the US, not yet at least, sure.
There is no "at best," by the way--Sanford did win twice and didn't seem to struggle much in what was a really great match of Street Fighter. That doesn't mean he's better than Daigo as I've said before; trying to turn it into that is simply misleading the discussion. All it means is that he gets no due from the Daigo fanboys as a result of their myriad of excuses, and it's the same with any single person that can beat Daigo at any time.
Well that is what my entire postings have been about.
Sanford and how he compares to Daigo. A
Scroll up a few posts and you can see who I'm responding to. So I think it's pretty relevant to bring these items up to argue my point.
Sanford is GOOD. Arturo is GOOD. Wong is GOOD. Daigo is simply better then all of them. I also feel alot of the Japanese players are better then them as well. Like I said above I think a lot of the American players are in for a rude awakening at EVO. Last year their were two Japanese. Daigo and his pal Dan. This year has alot more then that and big names too.
Top 8 is going to be very different then last year and I imagine most of the Japanese will be there. Perhaps I'll be wrong and they will be eliminated but I don't see anything wrong in some healthy debate about it.
Fair enough; maybe I'll run into you in the comments for the EVO results as well and we'll see how it rounds out this year. I'm just glad we'll (hopefully!) see a lot more Bison's out there this year, and hopefully even one in the top 5 (asking too much?).
Hell, maybe Markman and Mad Catz can get Daigo to rally the troops and we can have a Japan vs. USA match sometime around one of the big tournaments (in order to have mostly everyone in one place).
There is no way in hell SF will ever get air time on ESPN lol some people are way to delusional
@50 JasonLee
You are giving the Japanese to much credit.
Up to now they have always had the natural advantage of:
a)Having the game months ahead of the whole world, and
b)Being in a small country with a booming arcade culture
Because of this they have always been better then everyone else. They have never been naturally better then Americans they have always had advantages that put them a step ahead of everyone else.
Now tell them which of those advantages do they have for super? None of them. Everyone got the game a relatively the same time and with there being no arcade release for Super puts the Japanese on the same plain as the Americans. I will say that the Japanese are a little better then most American players, but not better then Justin. Justin is as good or if not better then most of the Japanese. He is probably the best Rufus in the world.
Plus you are sleeping on many other players that dont get much exposure cus they are not able to attend many tournaments (Shizza, OnlineTony, ect.)
I think you will be fairly surprised of how many Americans Top 8 at EVO. Plus right now there are only 2 confirmed Japanese players going Eita(?) and Daigo.
Also, if Justin was so good how come he failed to get anywhere at SBO. Neither did Valle, Combofiend or Marn.
They were all eliminated first round. Both teams that eliminated them in first round were then eliminated in the second.
For all this talk about how they can compete at the Japanese Level they didn't really prove it when they actually had the chance.
HukGuay: Is there any substantiation for that claim or is that just the same old conspiracy talk that borders on the weeaboo?
As far as I know, registration doesn't even end until the 5th, so it's hard to imagine they're already conspiring to stack the brackets.
@55
A game coming out in japan months before it releases anywhere else gives an advantage no doubt, but that is really only an initial advantage. you can't make that same argument years later after the game has been out for some time i.e. 3rd strike. i don't know of any american players that can hang consistently with that japanese top. (and no, i don't mean daigo)
This cool but I dont wanna hear about the 1st placed loser, it would make more sense to profile the number ONE player at this moment which Daigo. 2nd rate Justin ppssshhhh..
Garbage... Over-confident Wong can't compete on the national level. He will get man-handled on the international arena! Well see that soon this year!
This movie is showing August 3rd 8pm in Manhattan @ the Anthology Film Archives. It is no longer just a trailer.. And it's not about the game, it's about the players. This is your chance to finally see what Triforce actually does, and how Justin feels about all of what's going on, including Daigo. The parry video will be featured heavily. We all know who won each tournament,... BUT the public who this is aimed for does not. If you like video games, you will most likely like this movie. Most Americans are not exposed to this SF universe, and we feel they will be interested. This is film is meant for mainstream media, but we believe you will like it too, since you are probably in it in the background during some tournament somewhere.
Give it a shot.. then hate.. or just hate. That's fine too ;) All of your comments are really interesting and bring up many valid points which will be discussed in the movie, so we are happy. Thank you for your interest.
este documental de justin solo tendra un verdadero exito solo si derrota a daigo umehara o en su defecto a algun top player japones como tokido, pero por ahora solo es el mejor jugador de united states, y eso lo sabe el mas que nadie, asi que para mi habra que esperar el evo 2k10.
en el momento espero mas el hadokumentary PIXEL KOMBAT. [*_*]
topsecret335: Typical, typical. "Let's hate on Justin just because he's better than us!" Are you serious with he "can't compete on the national level"? He's the undisputed United States champion and -everyone- is gunning to take him down. His matches are always entertaining and, amongst the actual players that have met and played against him countless times, he has garnered almost universal respect.
@60 drmario11
Lol calm down son, I get it you love the Japanese cool.
But like I said Japanese are better then most of the American top players just not by much. But there not better then Justin. This dude is probably top 5 in the world if not top10.
Apart from Daigo name one person that can definitively beat Justin. I can tell you that its hard to pick someone out. Especially now that Rufus is so good in Super.
Justin could hang with all of the Japanese but as of now it comes down too the characters they play. Justin plays the best character in the game. Rufus worst match is a match he goes even in then he goes 6-4 in the rest. From the rumor list of people that are coming most of those characters have a hard time with Rufus, only person that is probably gonna give him trouble is Daigo.
But enough about Justin. All im trying to say with the whole American vs Japanese is that many of you think this is gonna be a blow out and all the Japanese are gonna top 8, but I seriously doubt this because the Japanese have lost many advantages they once had before and all of the top players in America are on there game. I see alot of upsets happening at EVO.
Dam that was a long sentence but anyways we will see what happens at EVO. As of now there are only 2 Japanese players confirmed. And I doubt that many of them are gonna come because at this time they are having exams in Japan.
Oh by the way your the idiot if you think Kindevu has a better Rufus then Justin.
@68 It will be very interesting. It's the whole story... AND THIS IS NOT A ONE SIDED STORY GLORIFYING THE EMPIRE Both sides of everyone's opinions are covered, otherwise it would be a commercial.. not a documentary ;)
I like that Triforce is supposed to be Justin's "manager" when he can't even "manage" to run Battlefield Arcadia on time, or keep the bracket moving.
Who gives a damn about the whole U.S. vs Japan. Justin Wong is one of the top players in the states, and possibly top 10 in the world. The Japanese players are good, no doubt, but not all of them are "invincible" like most of you fanboys tend to think.
The documentary looks cool, and if you guys think it looks boring then don't watch it. Simple as that. And obviously they make Wong look like a celebrity because this documentary is based on HIMSELF. Do you expect them to not glorify him during editing?
I think J Wong is a pretty amazing player. It's fairly obvious he's moved to a class above most U.S. players. He's very consistant and technically skilled. The only thing he lacks is creativity.
#75
Uh, no. There is no evidence in my post that indicated that I said Wong is invincible. I merely stated that he is one of the top players in the U.S. and maybe top 10 in the world. If I said he was invincible then I would have been blunt about it said #1 in the U.S. and top 5 in the world.
what the hell daigo speaking english ?
