I'm hoping the Sakura short has some Dan Habiki action.

I'm looking forward to 'sensing' them myself. I count myself amongst those who never particularly cared for SF's plot as much as other elements of the franchise.
I digress...

I do as well. LOL I just heard about the anime short and to be honest atm I'm more interested in it than the Chun Li live action movie. LOL

Honestly. Studio 4°C is too talented to be wasting there time on this crap. But I guess whatever pays the bills huh? Confused And it still bothers me that Capcom copped-out and left Sakura a high school girl.

I don't think anyone is concerned about the SF: Legend of Chun-Li movie as it was utter crap while it was in production (I feel kinda bad owning the movie poster after winning round 1 of the Gamestop SFIV tournament).

Anyway, anything "animated" with Sakura in it can't be bad and at least their focusing on her this time although I know some people would wanted to see Cammy instead. =P

Hmm...something tells me this is a marketing tactic because they were afraid there wouldn't be enough interest in the actual movie itself. Could have worked for DBE, too Laughing


On a side note, I did get the CE of SFIV, and have yet to watch the animated movie that came with it, but it surely must be better than any kind of live movie Hollywood can come up with based on the material...


Oh and Zin5ki, strange people with no lives outside their glowing monitors have actually documented EVERY LAST DETAIL of the Street Fighter storyline. It's on Game FAQs. It reveals such bizarre details as Zangief apparently being gay and Alex from SF3 being a pedophile.


I swear fans are a creepy bunch

Don't spread that kind of talk about Hollywood, or Keonyn will threaten to ban you. Rolling Eyes

How can Zangief be gay when he has kids?! Unless they think he's one of those in-the-closet types... But, even then, he still sure as hell don't dress or groom the part.
