So this is an actual movie that they are making? This looks VERY good. I might actually see this if it is out in theatres.

Yes. Hopefully WB will tell them to add more supernatural and outerworld stuff in it. Mortal Kombat main theme wouldn't hurt either. Oh and Shao Kahn as a character is BS so lets keep him out of the movie if we are going strictly reeboot at this point.

I hated him in Annihilation and even as a boss in the games he pissed me off.

EDIT: I'd rather they include Shinoq (sp?) from MK4. Also if this thing is OK'd who else agrees that Stryker should be in as well as Kabal?

So they took the super natural aspect completely out of mortal kombat?

Uh...no thanks. That just doesn't work, sorry. The entire series is about supernatural fights. You can't really remove that.

Also whats with killing off a main character IN THE TRAILER?! Thats really harsh. And killing him with a b-list character at that.

And where is Liu Kang? Sorry, even Annihlitation was better than this looks.

Well I'm curious about Sub-Zero's powers. I don't see how they could substitute his signature freeze ability unless he has a cup of water and a fire extinguisher.

They butchered the story, it sounds really corny(cornier I guess). But, I liked the directing style and atmosphere. Keep the director, hire new writers.

My guess is he will fight in a way that utilizes cold temperatures or with a weapon that would utilize cold. He won't actually throw balls of freezing ice at people and freeze them solid.

Thanks Nolan, now everybody tries to destroy everything that was magical about stuff like this.

It's saying a lot about the state of our society when people feel insecure and demysticise even Mortal Kombat, whose main appeal is the weird fantasy.

At least the fight scene was awesome.

If it is supernatural, than changing Reptile and Barakas origins to be absurd was just plain stupid.

don't worry the trailer is not really for a mortal kombat movie. I would say, in way, similar to neil blokamps alive joburg before he did district 9.

Instead if baraka having been a plastic surgeon he could of just been some slum psycho with a messed up face. Scared, burnt, ect.

It's kind of lame they're taking the alternate dimension story out. I thought that was the coolest part of the story, wait that was the story. An alternate dimension with extremely powerful bad assed warriors in it with a demented Sorcerer pitting them against feeble humans. Now they're just crazies with bad skin.. A weirdo that hangs out in your 711 beer freezer.. A blind man with a lasso and a bad attitude. Sonya Blade wasn't even right, bad casting..

I kid, I hope it's good.

Black Dynomite is cool though. That guy is a good actor.

Me too, but it was a box-office bomb. I doubt we'll see anything as... eccentric as that movie for a couple of years.

Watchmen had a living god in it :|.. And Batman is not a good comparison, Batman was always a realistic series with a supernatural twang to it but it was by no means the main thing..

The Mortal Kombat series on the other hand was always supernatural in every character.. This would be akin to making Superman a regular human being who dresses up and uses gadgets to fight crime due to the fact he has no super powers.. It doesn't work.
