Which of these two notoriously bad videogame movies from the early 90s was “better”, or I guess the right choice of words is “less shit”?
Both movies were awful, but I gotta (begrudgingly) give SF the nod. It at least had some halfway decent fights and some memeable moments like this one:
and JCVD hamming it up as Guile, desperately trying to sound American was something to “behold” (Tommy Wiseau/“it was free pizza!” vibes abound ), not to mention Raul Julia (R.I.P.) gave it his all as Bison to please his kids, who loved the games. The Mario Bros. movie OTOH was absolutely awful from top to bottom, not a single positive thing I can really say about it (and no, not just because it wasn’t like the games), not even “so bad it’s good”, it was just pure, unmitigated trash. There’s a reason the stars had to drink their asses off on set just to get through the day filming that garbage (seriously, they did).
