Recently, Street Fighter II: The Animated Movie celebrated it's 30th anniversary! And along with the current fighting game renascence we've been seeing lately, what better time to talk about one of THE best video game adaptations ever made? So of course, I had to recruit returning champion & friend of the show Casey (aka MinovskyArticle) to talk about how this movie stands the test of time, even now. Also in this ep: the movie's surprisingly troubled production, 90s industrial music, epic bromances, and of course: answering your questions. HADOKEN!
