Movie Mortal Kombat - To be filmed in South Australia

[Bostonian]

Only thing that annoyed me was the “I am sub zero” kind of parts. Apart from that the effects look awesome.

Sub Zero is the Boba Fett of Mortal Combat.

Gets pumped up way above his actual talents.

Well the acting seems about ten times better. Looks a bit blockbustery-diluted though (as trailers can tend to be).

Let me guess you are one of those Scorpion groupies.

Sub-zero is the best character, Bi Han has one hell of a story arc. His brother too.

No I'm a Raiden groupie.

So your guess sucked.

Even worse.

Na I love Sub-Zero. Just think that line was lame

 

[Bostonian]

Even worse.

If you think something is worse then by default that makes it awesome Karen.

Resorting to name calling again. Tsk tsk

Not a fan of scorpions and Sub Zeros costumes why couldn't they have them like in the original game

Has that Man of Steel look to it where costumes look alienish

They look very close to the past 3 games.

I assume this is the door scene?

Unlikely for mine, Reiko was meant to be originally, maroon not ninja guy, then in new canon decided to be "I wanna be the Khan" guy enough that he basically could one shot D'vorah, Kotal and Jax since blood magic and khan like strength. Knelt guy is a bit pudgy when first seen;

Looks more Bo' Rai-Cho than Reiko.

Interesting focus being placed on scorpion. Kinda follows the recent animated movie:

Mortal Kombat Legends: Scorpion's Revenge - Wikipedia

It’s a real shame to omit Johnny Cage.I get they want to build a storyline around a character that won’t be constrained by an already established backstory, but JC is an integral part of the franchise and shouldn’t have been left out.

It's a dumb move simply because nobody gives a crap about someone called Cole Young as they don't exist in the fans minds or in the universe and they aren't going to be going to the movie to see him.

Last one i played was " MK vs DC "

You’ve missed the best ones.

The reboot onwards (incl X, 11 and Aftermath) are the best fighting games of all time.

Cage is the very reason the game series exists as he was the replacement for Jean Claude Van Damme.

True but it’s not the 1st time he has been omitted. He wasn’t in MK3.

Yep. It was all designed to be a game modelled off Bloodsport. Not to mention Raiden and Shang Tsung being ripped off from Big Trouble in Little China.

11 was very subpar with a garbage story (haven’t bought the DLC so can’t comment on that)

Story comes down to personal taste I guess.

Personally loved 11. DLC story was good.

The best thing that happened was Netherrealms taking over from Midway (god Armageddon was bad.)

4 new tv spots

 

[Roobs321]

My only doubt is that garnering the hype of "omg best Mortal Kombat movie eva!!!" headlines is obviously a very low bar to cross, which might lead to a that'll do type attitude.

1st one was great.
Scorpions Revenge was good too.

Haven't been this hyped for a movie in years
