streetfighter-movie.gyao.jp/Not much to go on, especially since it's in japanese. Bison's wearing a business suit, which I suppose makes sense; maybe he'll have his military garb in the sequel. Overall, if it wasn't sf, I wouldn't care, but it looks like it could be decent.

Most everyone I have seen commenting on this has been ripping it apart - not just the trailer. Ever since the announcement they were making a movie and "throwing out minor characters like Ryu and Ken," it has been Insultfest 2008. The casting of an American girl for a Chinese girl was also insulting to many.
The thing I hear people complain about that really makes me just shake my head with a lost look on my face is her lack of big thighs. ...seriously? I mean yes - you cannot have Chun-Li in a *game* without thighs like that, but you certainly wouldn't make a casting decision based on the size of the girls thighs. Gimme a break.

Some of those complaints seem a bit ill-founded, and the last one's absurd.
I'm glad ryu and ken aren't in it; this film takes place before the sf2 tournament, right? So..why would they be in it? Now, I would expect them to be in the sequel. Cammy's in this one, right?
Kreuk is half Chinese; that's close enough for me, plus casting a somewhat-recognizable actress couldn't hurt either.

Is this going to be a big budget thing or direct to video? Anyone know where to see a trailer? I will pass judgement at that time.

I believe it will be in theaters, and there's a trailer in the first post. I don't know if I'd call it big budget, but there are some recognizable names other than kreuk: michael clarke duncan, neal mcdonough, and chris klein. How "big budget" the action will be is hard to tell w/ this trailer; probably "medium budget." ![:P](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/tongue.png) Also, according to imdb, the characters from the actual game appearing in the fim will be: Chun-Li, Bison, Balrog, Nash, Vega, Maya (Crimson Viper) and Gen.
