[@realwhatbrains]

Didn't Jean-Cleaude admit he took this role just to pay for his coke habit or something.. Also the knife fight /sword fight between Ryu and Vega was using a real sword.. The fight scene was supposed to be choreographed but got put off until the day of the shoot what we saw was improvised. This explains a lot -> “I said: ‘Listen, we’ll just have to cut back.’ So we took out any places where you saw blood, we submitted it again and it was still an R. Now we started to take out some of the shots where impact was shown. I’m cutting away, cutting it back, back, back, and finally we hand it in - they give it a G rating. That would have been the kiss of death - no teenager wants to see a G movie! So I had Jean-Claude come in for one day and I added a line: ‘Four years of ROTC for this shit.’ That got us back up to PG-13.”

If you want good Street Fighter lore, read the UDON comics. They're great at both giving the series an actual plot and just as martial arts/military comics as a whole. They aren't 100% true to cannon all the time (though that's mostly due to retcons in game rather than actual inaccuracy) but they're a hell of a lot better than the plot (or lack thereof) you'll get from the games or manuals. After this vid, I'd love to see Marcus' impression of them. Personally speaking, they're probably tied with post-06 Sonic comics for my favorite video game licensed media (even more than MK).
