There have been two major live action Street Fighter movies. One sucked and the other sucked harder. At this point many fans don’t even want to see a studio try it again because they are tired of seeing their beloved characters bastardized. Yet, there has to be someone out there who can make a good Street Fighter movie right? The guys at Blinky Productions think that they are those people.
The purpose of this teaser was to demonstrate that with a little creativity, a few dollars in your pocket and the right look, anyone can make an accurate Street Fighter film.
As we all know how well received the last two films where, I felt it necessary to try and show up my Hollywood counter parts in a way I knew they have yet to try. Source material- paying tribute to it is the most important thing when adapting a comic book, video game or intellectual property that isn’t 100% your own. If you fail to keep what made the characters memorable in the first a constant theme throughout your adaptation, you fail period.
Also, let it be known I am actively perusing the rights to Street Fighter as well as Final Fight. So if you’re a true fan of these games and want to see some justice done for them, pass this trailer on.
Authors bio is coming up shortly.
