Anyone Been Keeping Up With The Newer Mortal Kombat Movie Thing? - Page 6

Stepping back to Raiden for a second; The thing that really bugged me about his episode is that he didn't shoot even ONE goddamn lightning bolt. I mean, I know he's had to give up his godhood or whatever to participate in the mortal combat but that's never stopped him from throwing lightning in the games. Then when he got hit with the tasers, I got excited because hey, maybe he needed a recharge or some bullshit. But nope, still no lightning.

I personally always played as Scorpion. I especially liked him in Deadly Alliance, but back on SNES I liked using him, too.

I think perhaps you got the wrong thread there Jagos.

Yeah I'm not sure we need to be gettin' ponies in our Mortal Kombats. There's a time and a place you know.

You act like this hasn't already happened.

I was a bit confused by this origin for Scorpion, I thought the ninjas were like modern day ninjas/Yakuza in the video game? Like I know Scorpion is immortal ghost guy but Sub Zero wasn't, they were supposed to be modern day ninja who were still active in the criminal underworld. Here though apparently both were transferred to the modern day via the cunning and sorcery of Quan Chi and Shang Tsung (I'm halfway convinced that dude hanging out with Quan Chi is Shang Tsung, just by the dint that otherwise I have no idea who that dude is other than Quan Chi's pointless lackey, and the fact that he's speaking English in feudal Japan).

Hope they retain the futuristic crap in the modern day, though (that would explain Sub-Zero since originally in this he looked like he had some kind of advanced breathing apparatus on his face and looked pretty old, so maybe that's what's keeping him alive, plus it would allow Scorpion to retain that futuristic harpoon thingy).

Counter Argument.

The argument is that arguing about fighting games are silly and story usually takes a backseat to the game play, which is punching dudes. And sometimes kicking them.
