You know, despite how corny the Street Fighter II cartoon was, I think it actually added some nice touches to the cannon of Street Fighter II lore. A couple of things such as the design of Gouken, they combined the size of the original Gouken and instead of that form, they replaced it with Shen Long.

Another thing added is Akuma's attack which is called Wrath of the Raging Demon which I believe the cartoon also coined the phrase Raging Demon as well.

I forget, for Cammy were her team members introduced in the ending of Super Street Fighter II?

I find it funny that they changed Blanka's role of being a complete badass monster in the cartoon to more of a rat pack character that tags along with Dan and Sakura lol. Might have been interesting if they kept him a big scary monster that talks like the cookie monster xD

Do you think there will be lawsuits against the theater or WB?

Based on what we know so far, I can't imagine there would be any winnable ones.

Exactly how would it be tied to the movie?

Early reports I heard mentioned him possibly being angry at the film being sold out, but considering the number of weapons involved, the equipment he wore, his use of tear gas, the incendiary traps in his apartment...he had been planning this for a little while. We will have to wait for his reasons, but at this point, based on claims of antisocial behavior from fellow tennants, I suspect he has a mental illness.

its also suspeced that he had a machine to make loud noises at his apartment.

Which would have made the police go there so his traps would be set off.

So it is hypothesized that while the police were at his address he would be free to shoot more.

what an evil dick!

I'm sure this idiot's gonna be talked about for quite a while.

There's lots of rumors going around, but lets see what ends up being true from the emotions of the moment.

lets hope this slimeball doesnt motivate other idiots into action.
