Celebrating the release of "Street Fighter: The Movie"

@pherai - yeah, hard to make a consistent storyline out of the random storyline of Street Fighter. Only way to really do it is if they focused on a small circle of characters. How are you going to incorporate Blanka, Dhalsim, Zangief, and E Honda’s actual storylines together?

This can also be said of Mario Brothers. Italian plumbers fighting against turtles, deadly plants, and other animals who are ruled by a giant dinosaur? Not to mention using flowers, mushrooms, and other random items for power ups. Yeah, that’s a strong background to make a live action movie.

Its easy you dont worry about origins and just throw the characters in as a bunch of freaks that meet up for a tournament and then somebody gets to take on Bison ala Ryu.

Writing a good Super Mario Bros movie is not hard at all. You just make it a typical fantasy quest and insert Mario as the hero, and the koopers as the bad guys.

You could plug it into the Heroes Journey with no issues at all.
