Street Fighter Chun Li

So I am watching the CN and a commercial for Street Fighter the Legend of Chun Li comes on. Now the other Street Fighter movies sucked a lot. I feel bad for even paying for it. The Anime one was so bad they made a gay sex spoof of it that I saw at DragonCon, it was sadly funny. These are very good reasons to completely skip the movie, however the best one may be what they did to the star.


In the game on of the best reasons to play Street Fighter 2 was that the one girl character in it was actually pretty good looking. Chun Li was a cute Chinese girl that you would not mind looking at for hours at an end.

In the commercial she is shown in a completely black outfit. This was not what the the character should have been. She was the sterotypical cute Chinese girl that game players would want to see. Sure there is sexism, but it made you notice the character. If they did not have the character it would be sexism. If they made her look ugly it would have been sexism. it would have been sexism no matter how you look at it, but at least Chun Li would have kick the asses of anyone who said it was sexism. Take that NOW losers. Make this blog into a sexist blog so that it can be noticed.

But there may be reasons for not making her look like that. If she is investigating the death of her father she should not be going around like a festival girl. The black works well for the skulking in the night. I assume that they will put in a scene where they put her in the traditional outfit as a joke on the regular game outfit. I mean if she was in a fighting tournament she would be laughed at until she began the beatings.


But oh well. I will just have to wait until I can find street.fighter.the.legend.of.chun.li.torrent to be able to see how it was. And besides I always thought that Cammie was the hotter girl in the game.
