So, it seems that the makers of the newest Mortal Kombat movie have made a rather controversial choice to leave out series veteran Chun-Li, despite her immense popularity with fans of the Mortal Kombat franchise. This is rather baffling, IMHO.

And in related news, astute journalists suddenly notice that Dr. Spock has yet to make an appearance on The Madalorian.

I thought Chun li was in street fighter? But I could be wrong. It's been awhile since I played the game or watched any of the movies.

Chun-Li is a Street Fighter character. Is this some kind of a joke, or have they mistaken Chun-Li for Katana, who one of MK's popular female fighters.

I don't think Chun Li has ever decapitated anyone with her fans or made them swell up like a balloon by kissing them. :lol:

I would've thought it was a joke, if the author hadn't added a correction later.
