Video game movie adaptations can be difficult at the best of times. Games are about interaction and player agency. And although some have deep enough storytelling to easily carry a movie, Street Fighter isn't one of them.
Like with the 1994 adaptation, a decision had to be made: take it seriously like it's a fictional UFC with the addition of fantasy powers, or send it up with camp weirdness like the 1993 Super Mario Bros movie? The new Street Fighter trailer suggests the movie will lean towards the latter, and that might be no bad thing.
