HBO Mortal Kombat

One of my favorite movie experiences ever. Folks probably didn't catch half of the references or puns. We've been so conditioned to have everything so fast with information with news, through limits of words like twitter, and songs averaging 2 mins that folks have forgotten patience and development.

REALLY hoping we can see this franchise grow with a bigger budget and more actor heavyweights, they can do ALOT with this. Sub Zero actor signed on for 4 films.

They saving him fam. They don't want to show too much in the first film, and also alot of the dead fighters will be brought back. Not sure about Kung Lao, I was LEGIT mad my girl had to calm me down haha.
 
this was mid. Get it? like Midway? anywho this was bad.

The tone of the movie is weird as hell. not good enough to take seriously, not campy enough to be amused.

Kano was trash first and foremost. They tried so hard to make him the comic relief dude it sank the rest of the movie.

Worst part is they cut Johnny Cage for him.

The whole Cole thing was trash af as predicted. Couldn't bring myself to give a fuck about anything he had going.

Most of the story was weak as hell. They got the Lin Kuei vs Shirai Ryu right though.

Most of the fighting was ok-ish. Kung Lao was the standout and Kabal was cool.

did not care about the rest.

Nah, niggas complaining about the movie being trash because their fighter wasn't in so I assume folks wasn't paying attention to fighters like Korta Khan, and Shinnok.
 
This was clearly a universe set up. Set up
Shirai Ryu vs lin kuei, the tournament, liu kang and kung lao story, johnny cage, Sonya blade and jax spin off.

Really don't understand why niggas mad. We all sat here for a year saying how trash this was probably gonna be.
 
Right like Liu Kangs fight scenes should have been epic af but shit was just meh to me they need a better coreographer
 
I liked it, but I was a huge Mortal Kombat fan growing up. Not only did they have a lot of characters, they name dropped or referenced a lot of others like Bo Rai Cho. Having each character be an assassin for Shang Tsung was a clever way to bring in a lot of characters.

This was just a fun movie and I can see them making about 5 more with so much lore to pull from.

Cole Young was pointless though. They could have made it more of a background for Liu Kang than Cole.

I don't care what anybody say, Kano was fucking hilarious, lol.
