    If I don't see entire armies felled with a single swing, this movie will have failed.

    The games are very loosely based on Chinese history, aren't they? So I'd imagine so.

    I wonder if they'll go with Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fe's bromance or focus on Cao Cao since he was the actual winner, historically. Either way, incoming Super Shredder Lu Bu.

    Good post Skai - since it's been done in a "serious" fashion already, they might as well make it over the top like the game.

    Well, Cao Cao was dead long before China was unified, and it was under the Sima family's Jin dynasty. So really none of the Three Kingdoms "won."

    Shu definitely lost first though.
