"For I beheld Satan as he fell from Heaven...LIKE...LIGHTNIIIIIING" is a line that did not need to exist, let alone be delivered so hard, but it lives rent free in my mind nonetheless.

[@thefatbearcrew]

I think this was Raulia Julia’s last movie before he died as he wanted his kids to have something to remember him by as they loved street fighter It would explain his stellar performance

[@nathanhall9345]

Everybody talks about how extra he goes, but what really sets his performance apart for me is how he found a center for the character, and all his lines seem to be coming from one solid core of who the character is. He treated it like a legit role and THEN he went all out with the actual delivery.

[@theawesomeman9821]

I thought Raul stole the show😊

[@DavidGowers]

Yeah apparently he made this for his kids because they were huge fans of the games, and he put in a LOT of work researching dictators and crime lords like Mussolini, Pablo Escobar, Stalin, Hitler etc and then incorporated a lot of their mannerisms into Bison. Then he Shakespeared the CRAP out of the role.

[@Deathbird_Mitch]

​@@DavidGowersI recently saw a clip of him doing some Shakespeare when he was younger. His performance then reminds me of his performance here.

[@JasonKreider-eq8kp]

Actually his last film came out in 95 (down came a blackbird)

[@TheGrownMan101]

I like it when Zangief said, "Quick! change the channel!" It's still funny to this day 😂

[@rogersjgregory]

Zangief was perfect, and that line is so damn funny.

[@THENAMEISQUICKMAN]

That and Dee Jay and Bison's conversation that goes "That's great news, General, congratulations!" "ON THE CONTRARY, I MOURN" "Oh. Okay." are my favourite moments lmao

[@lightningjadejavier]

This movie even if bad, was an amazing movie 😂

[@Ofbricks]

Raul Julia poured his heart and soul into M. Bison's persona. Truly he must have played the game and read everything about him. He was so amazing and such an egomaniac.

[@KaelKnight]

If I remember correctly Raul Julia was sick and essentially dying in this movie but his kids loved street fighter so he pushed through for them to be able to see their dad in street fighter he died the same year this movie came out he is and will be remembered for his many amazing roles and being a badass dad pushing through for his kids

[@ReelRejects]

That's actually kinda beautiful, honestly. Seemed like he really showed up & gave it his all. And despite how silly the movie comes across, I can't pretend like he's not helping to elevate the material. He is to this movie what Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa is to Mortal Kombat.

[@dacoomes]

i heard he died before filming was finished, and a bunch of the final scenes had added computer generated stuff to finish the movie.

[@TheOnlyHawkeye666]

Fun fact, the end freeze frame is the classic winner pose for all their respective characters in the game. Masterful touch i must say for a movie that is largely dismissed as a video game movie, but given its based on SF 2 its pretty on point

[@DeadShizno]

100% a gem, why does this movie have such a great line "to me, it was a tuesday" such a great line.

[@elvinmacospag6989]

Raul Julia, rest in peace. You were an absolute legend.

[@squashedeyeball]

Raul Julia took this role for his son, who loved the game. The film is the goofy, charming mess that it is. But Raul Julia gave his soul to any tole, including this one. And in all honestly, he immortalized the movie in the best meaning of the word. May he rest in peace.

I unironically love this movie. Is it campy? Yes, but it's clearly tongue-in-cheek. Is it good? Probably not, but I just love everything about it. From Raul Julia's final performance, to the game accurate costumes and stage recreations, to some of the best casting a video game movie has ever had; there's just so much to love.

[@anumeon]

Raul Julia was dying when he played Bison in this and was in constant pain. Despite that he still shined as the best actor in the film. He also had a blast playing Bison because he knew that he didn't have to take anything seriously (so to speak) and was only in the movie because of kids i believe who loved the videogames. God i miss that mans performances. RIP Raul Julia.

31 is not old

[@daverowe03]

@mage1439 . My comment is specifically in response to their surprise when she says she's been fighting for 20 years. They made a joke that she must have been fighting since she was an infant because she barely looks more than 20 years old in this movie. Trust me. I know 31 isn't old.

Street Fighter is so bad, It's good. I loved watching this as a kid (as a fellow Belgian to JCVD and fan of his) and It actually kind of became a cult classic for me. Raul Julia is the most extra villain, and I love it. JCVD is at his peak flexing production design is all balsa wood, but practical the humour is sometimes hitting 100 percent, sometimes -250 percent, and I'm here for it Still better than any Steven Seagal movie. Fight me.

[@chaost4544]

Agreed. This film clicks all the notes that put it in the "so bad it's good" category.

[@adam-cr5ht]

Bit of trivia: They mixed up the naming in the English translation of the game, Bison's character should have been called Balrog (as in LOTR, the most powerful enemy -- I assume Sauron was copyrighted) and M. Bison should have been the boxer, as in M. Tyson.

I would have loved a sequel to this. It was one of my favourite films growing up. Yeh its goofy as hell but compared to most video game adaptations that would come out the wood work down the line, this was one of the more fun ones. And goddamn, you gotta give props to Raul Julia. He was amazing in this. Ironically enough, I feel like his character here inspired RE5s Albert Wesker somewhat. The dude got nominated for christ sake for either the academy or golden globes for his role in this. He's hands down the best actor giving the best performance despite the dodgy material. And finding out Agent May was Chun-Li in this years after blew my mind. This fillm is great. I don't care what anyone says. Its a classic and always brought a smile to my face when watching it. But also saddens me that this was Gomez Adams' last performance. Nevertheless, still fun. IN OTHER NEWS...RackaRacka Brothers will supposedly be directing the next live action reboot supposedly. Now that's insane and ironic since they did a parody of SF once.

[@personatodo]

Of all the movies with Benny The Jet and you didn't even mention about the amazing iconic fight between him and Jackie Chan in Wheels on Meals which Benny is most popular for? I guess you guys are not fans of Street Fighter and Tekken if you say all those characters blurred together. Both franchise are still very prominent today not just a 90s thing. The Street Fighter movie turns out more of an action comedy than an actual Street Fighter movie saved mostly by Raul Julia's M. Bison performance. Street Fighter Assassin's Fist is the most accurate live action adaptation and Street Fighter 2 The Animated Movie anime remains the best adaptation so far.

[@wolf9walker]

as for the big fight, Jean-Claude Van Damme is a martial artist in 6 arts. Raul Julia is not a martial artist, not a fighter, so they are a little limited on fight scenes if they wanted to see his own face as much as possible. kinda like star wars. the Luke films there wasn't a lot of fighting, but in the Anakin movies and the Rey movies they're flipping around. Raul however was still great.
