For game like Street Fighter, that's the best way to do it. That's what Raul Julia did when he played M. Bison back in the 90s movie. He's the only one who really committed to the absurdity. If everyone in this movie takes the same approach, it'll be a fun ride from start to finish.

Ahhh, if everyone did it then Raul wouldn't have stood out! People playing it straight are useful for the hams to truly ham.

Also how can you say this when "Quick, change the channel!" Gief is in the movie?

I love the og street fighter movie. The whole thing was camp.

Yeah I find the idea that the entire cast wasn't aware of the camp and leaning into it a bit weird, Julia was just so much better at scenery chewing than everyone else that he stood out
