Mortal Kombat (2021)
 

The cast is really starting to come together:

Sub-Zero -- Joe Taslim
Liu Kang -- Ludi Lin
Sonya Blade -- Jessica McNamee
Kano -- Josh Lawson
Raiden -- Tadanobu Asano
Jackson "Jax" Bridges -- Mechad Brooks
Mileena -- Sisi Stringer
Scorpion -- Hiroyuki Sanda
Shang Tsung -- Chin Han
Unspecified Role -- Lewis Tan

I guess the Raiden actor doesn't speak much if any English, tho.

I don't know who any of these people are.

That also applied to the original though, except for Christopher Lambert. His range is incredible, from Scotland to the orient and still no Oscar.

Liu Kang actor is in the newer Power Rangers and Black Mirror's "Striking Vipers" ep

I wont say how, but I may or may not have seen a slightly unfinished version of the movie trailer to this.

It's fucking amazing. Everything you want from just about every character but there is one major flaw.

No sign of Johnny Cage at all. Not sure if he'll be a surprise or what. It does not appear so. It seems like Kano takes on the comic relief in a lot of the trailer.

Everything you would want from Scorpion and Sub Zero are in it including a really cool as scene where Jax attempts to shoot Sub Zero point blank.

Lewis Tan is playing someone named Cole and from what I can tell, this entire story appears to revolve around him and Sonya Blade . Something to do with a tattoo or marking on him.

This is spoiled in the trailer ( unless they edit it out ) but Goro confirmed. He's show fighting Cole. I'm also pretty sure Smoke was in this. At least I thought it was Smoke. Raiden looks fantastic in the trailer. He has at least 1 great moment and he was speaking English so i dont know.

I know Asano....and I definitely want to know more about Jessica McNamee. :drool:

Is Mortal Kombat still a thing? I thought that had been left in the 90s, where it belongs.

its still a thing and its still really great

I don't know about doing another movie but the games themselves have been great enough to the point where they're more than welcome.

I'm fine with the 90's versions of the movies; I'm probably the only fan who doesn't really mind the "terrible" sequel of annihilation but it to answer this; seems like the casting has got some traction with it--see how it is when it releases. I think we have been waiting for years for this?

Calling it now: Post credit scene features Taven and Daegon and will end up being the greatest thing of the whole movie.

I liked it...had a great soundtrack. Def didn't like the retcon having to do with the family feud. Surprisingly, I think they tried to stuff too much fan service in.

I liked both of them and I still watch them if i catch them on TV

The casting or Raiden was really fucking terrible though.

If they aint black bitches in it, than I dont give a fuck!

Can't believe we lost DAMN iNATOR and got JonSouthwoodsTopFan. When one door closes another opens

We supposed to know who that is

He posted in the thread...

Yeah, but OssMan kept saying his name like we should have known it from before he signed up....

Wish OssMan could autoplay this banger whenever someone clicked this thread.

I like to think this is what snorting cocaine feels like.

They should have definitely gone with the 1995 music for the original trailer.

This is going to be a horrible movie and I'm going to love the shit out of it :yes:

I don't think it will be horrible.

The fight choreography is being done by guys who have stunted for Marvel.

I mean, it looks down to earth as opposed to the previous 2 entries. Then there was that other web series or whatever with Jeri Ryan and Michael Jai White.

Sucks they're actually putting it in theatres. Ain't going back there anytime soon. And I ain't springing for a HBO Max subscription either. So, I guess I'm waiting for Redbox.

You're waiting for me to find a link

Sucks there's no Johnny Cage (unless he's a surprise). I'm guessing he'll show up after the credits.

They have mentioned wanting to start a cinematic universe (on a lot smaller scale than MCU, obvi).

Maybe the real Johnny Cage is inside all of us

That's deep, man...very philosophical

Is that you Skeletor?

Sonya had Johnny Cage deep inside of her.

I'd actually be down with this...a real life B movie star to play an iconic B movie/video game character.

I think it would be a massive failure if Johnny Cage isnt in Mortal Kombat.
