M. Bison’s famous “It was Tuesday” line in Street Fighter (1994) is frequently misread by viewers as a statement of apathy. Instead, he is telling Chun Li that the day her father died was so important to him that he can instantly recall what day of the week it happened on.
Traci Lords remix if the movie theme is great if you never heard it and like EDM.
Note if you do not know who Traci Lords is please make sure you include “Mortal Kombat soundtrack” in any search for it as she famously did porn before turning 18
Raul Julia was a legend… I firmly believe that, at least later in his career, the dude would do whatever shlocky film he could for a paycheck, so he could spend the rest of the time doing theater for fun. And he’s often the best part of those movies.
Everything about it is terrible, but it’s saved by Raul Julia in the same way that Tim Curry saves the Three Musketeers and Alan Rickman saves Robin Hood.
A classically trained actor treating the whole thing like a pantomime. It’s glorious.
The first MK movie was the archetypal “It’s good… for a video game adaptation” movie for a long time. Luckily now we have great adaptations (not necessarily movies though) to point to that stand on their own merits.
But yeah, there’s always a part of me that will have fond memories of MK and the JCVD Street Fighter movie. Hell, add Double Dragon to that list.
The OG Mortal Kombat and Street Fighter movies are dope. I don’t care what anyone else says.

I don’t think I’ve seen the Street Fighter movie, but Mortal Kombat rocks.

Street Fighter is far superior.
