I loved playing Street Fighter on the Super NES. There was only one female character back then. And her name was Chun-Li. She was cute and powerful. Most importantly, she had massive thunder thighs. Chun-Li’s gravity defying kicks and combos set the mold for female fighters that followed.
Capcom is attempting to revive the Street Figher brand by leaning on Chun-Li’s star power. They’ve placed her front and center on the game packaging for the new Street Fighter game. Unfortunately, they’ve allowed the movie industry to mangle the next street figher movie.
Streetfigher: The Legend of Chun-Li is shaping up to be an awful straight-to-DVD bomb. The movie’s producers seleceted a size zero light weight to play Chun- Li. And I suspect she’s lacking in acting chops because she wasn’t given any lines in the trailer.
