I've got to say these new stills from STREET FIGHTER: THE LEGEND OF CHUN-LI really cheered me up. And not in a "wow that WATCHMEN trailer was SO awesome" kinda way but in a "wow this is going to be so bad, I think Jason Adams should already start working on his 'Awfully Good' column" kinda way. I mean it's pretty safe to say that we all thought that Kristen Kreuk starring in a STREET FIGHTER movie about Chun-Li was going to be pretty ridiculous, but this has impressed me with just how ridiculous it looks. The film is currently set for a February release but you can check out some wonderful new stills from the film below...

Extra Tidbit: I played the original arcade "Street Fighter" so furiously one time I actually sprained my wrist.

It's bad in a way the powerglove was in the movie "The Wizard".
"I love the powerglove...it's sooo bad." ahaha

Once again... consider this, people
If you're looking forward to this, take into consideration: The director behind Doom is making it. Doom was awful.

Again I comment on a 'Legend of Chun Li' article simply to point out that I'm the only person looking forward to this, thinking it could be good.

Those pictures don't give you much to go by. I'll reserve judgment. The only thing I know for sure is that Kristen Kreuk is very fine.

Some day
We need the video game film equivalent of Xmen. The one video games adaptation that's taken seriously and done so well that it makes the studios wake up.
I actually feel that the disney Price of Persia will be tat film. Look at all the time and money they're pumping into it, I think that once that film is released we'll start to see less video game movie like this one.

Haters man. Those pictures don't look so bad, okay maybe the spinning pole one does.
They actually kind of remind me of Kill Bill. I'm not saying this is going to be as good as Kill Bill, I'm just saying we should give it a chance and that Kristen Kreuk is hotter than shot pistols.

i feel like you could take stills from this movie and the dragonball movie, mix them up, and not be able to tell which is which.

A bad videogames movie?
Really, who'd've thought?

Games Developers really need to start thinking about who they give their licenses to, and maybe start forcing more creative control out of the hands of the people that want to try and make these films.

Z?
