Jax is in? Cool.

And I always thought Johnny was usually considered the main hero (if you really wanted to consider anyone a "Main character") and Scorpion was always a villain (In the games I played anywas) And Subzero was also a hero (He's gonna die *Crys*). But this trailer seems to turn all that around. Scorpion is a hero (Apparently), Subzero is a villain (Usually the enemy of the hero is considered a villain) and Johnny, well, he died in the trailer after a fairly boring fight.

And reptile doesn't look a thing like reptile.

Also, Scorpian is supposed to be a skeleton IIRC (Like ghost rider without the bike).

Scorpion does not look like a skeleton. He has a human body,


Well he used to look like one. Still yet, Reptile and Baraka look too human. Not complaining, jsut sayin they should at least make Reptile look more like, well, a reptile.

Reptile only got his, yanno, reptile form in the second game he was in, if I recall correctly. And Scorpion only looked like a skeleton when he ripped his face off during (one of his) fatalities.

Though, note on the more realistic take.

Nobody gives a s#%$& about a "more realistic" take, it's still too unrealistic for the normal viewer, and it completely tramples over what a fan likes.

For god's sake, they kill Johnny Cage in the friggen trailer? Really? I don't like the guy, but you just don't kill off a major and longtime fighter after a rather dull fight in the FRIGGEN TRAILER and expect the fans to like it.

I think I actually prefer the original Mortal Kombat movie over this.


This is just a pitch to Warner Bros. Even a way to boost the hype for the new Mortal Kombat game as the actors who agreed to do it said.It's not like this is going to be the real movie. And I've hardly seen anyone complaining, I've seen many hardcore fans go gaga over this trailer.
Because Warner Brothers movies have always known when to back off and leave a masterpiece the heck alone.

Oh, right.

The guy who directed this would still be the same person that directed the movie. It's just that they own Mortal Kombat series, and this was an outreach. If this was accepted, Warner could fund it.

Also if want to talk about their movies..

This was a pitch of a bloody and gritty but non-supernatural version of Mortal Kombat.
In terms of keeping it bloody and gory, but no supernatural abilities, the premise of it is pretty damn good.

Tis very true my friend, but maybe a non-supernatural approach is what the Mortal Kombat films were begging for. After that box office flop known as Mortal Kombat: Annihilation, I'm not surprised they decided to take this road. The very feel of the trailer still proves to be dark and brooding, not being very different from Mortal Kombat itself. For all we know, it could be a very promising film. The trailer sure leads me to believe it's gonna be, but the trailer can only take one so far...
