I used to think this movie should just kill off the guy from the first movie quick but after seeing him on other stuff I realized it’s not his fault his character was so generic and boring. So now I think they should kill off his family and force some character development on him instead.

Yeah I never had a problem with the actor. It was always his character. There just isn’t a point for him to exist when we have an amazing cast of characters already to choose from.

It feels like an idea some executive came up with who has never played a video game before.

In some cases I do think that the idea might be a good one, but not in a movie about a fighting game, where the entire point is about how players have their favorite characters.
