Well, we probably bit off more than we could chew with this one. Usually we stay away from movies of the page-one-rewrite variety, content to tighten the screw of more mediocre movies, but Street Fighter was such a notorious flop we couldn't resist. In the end there was little choice but to essentially pitch a bunch of entirely new movies.
This week Josh and Alan of Press Start to Join (fellow Alberta Podcast Network members) join Scott & Gregg in the elevator pitching. Together we quarter motion punch and quarter motion kick the crap out of Steven de Souza's directorial debut.
We forgot to mention it on air, but a good chunk of the behind-the-scenes stories we talk about came from an incredible Polygon article by Chris Plante, we highly recommended giving it a read.
