Walmart and the *checks notes* World Wrestling people are very worried about being seen as sexual so they wanted to give Cammy some shorts.... that look like they were put on after the fact.

and then Cody Rhodes doesn't even get a Guile action figure. It's John Cena.

I assume there will be other tie-in merchandise with proper film branding but it was weird to see.

Tell me you've never played Street Fighter without telling me you've never played Street Fighter. ;) The insane psychics defying power move it kinda a calling card of most side by side fighters.

Although yeah, if they make them "the girl can never lose" that will be a problem. But I'll bitch about that when/if it happens.

I'm now at the point of just hoping this does better at the Box Office than the MK movie did. MK underperformed to the point it probably won't get a sequel.

But also, it's a question of how much of a real marketing push this will get.

October release would have saved it at the peak of the hype. Moving it to summer against some big movies killed it.

Would have done x2 at it's original planned release date.

I would expect most things to underperform right now what with gas and everything else being so expensive.

This, MK, and that dumb Masters of the Universe movie are all dead IP's. These should never have gotten funded.

Nostalgia is the only driving factor to get people into seats these days. Young people don't go to the theater except to see horror movies.

Just a reminder that the biggest movie of last year (Minecraft) was a videogame movie: Domestic Box Office For 2025

A videogame that was heavily played, even foundational, to Millenials and Gen Z (both of whom are now bigger than Gen X and the remaining Boomers).

MK, Street Fighter, etc. were not foundational to Millenials and Gen Z.

Also the whole viral craze - if its not a meme or heavily nostalgia based, your movie is probably a failure now. Future marketing is going to be awful.

I'm sure it looks corny/campy to some, but am happy so far..

Maximilian gets his "lets go" and the guy next to Wong I think is Yipes but at first I thought it was Ross rofl? not 100% but if it is a fgc commentator.. holding a toliet paper, ain't no way its not an ultra soft reference.

I too love how bad it looks but man, that was the wimpiest sounding Hadoken to use for a trailer. Should have SFX over a heftier grunt with more oomph.

11:11 is the best takeaway, but the tldr; capcom is heavily involved with it

The recent MK release is a sequel? Not surprising it underperformed when the first one had a divided reception. Additionally, the franchise with a foundation on violence and sexuality have somehow injected “modern” morality that faggots like Z Zweischneid eat up, so the most recent release carried live support for a year? With it being part of the IP sale with WB cross your fingers that investing parties may want to make money again instead of push a message?

On a thread related note, spoilers:
