PS: Yes, I’m cheating by referencing a video game movie, rather than what is apparently not a board game movie after all.  You may have guessed from that that I am not taking this position of mine all that seriously.

Would you believe that this was Raul Julia’s last movie role?

Honest to God. The hell of it is, I don’t know that Raul Julia wouldn’t have changed things around if he had known that Street Fighter would have been the last time he’d be on the silver screen. Nobody chews scenery like he did in that film unless he’s having fun.
