* Well they couldn't get the actor from the first film to reprise his role as Johny Cage so they cast someone else and killed the character in the first 5 minutes. Although there rumors abound that the actor from the first film (Linden Ashby) will return once again as Johny in Mortal Kombat 3: Devastation.
* Very well said, I couldn't have said better myself.
Right on target.
No one actually cared about making a film the second time, they just figured the first made money so they could just rush in without the original cast and decent story and still make money.
The first mortal kombat movie owns the ass off the second one and both the Johnny Cage V scorpian and Liu Kang V reptile fights are great. And I hope that they make the third movie if made better than the second and Christopher Lambert does not speak with a lisp.
What else has Liu Kang been in? I saw the second one the other day and I just thought it was trying to hard to be cool and introduce characters from the computer games. Which was a really bad idea coz Jax was camp, Motaro didnt look evil enough, the female goro was well ugly (even though shes supposed to be) and sindel was quite good looking considering she looked like 90 years old.
If you mean Robin Shou the actor who played Liu Kang then he hasn't done much else besides MK and MK2.
Here is a little info on the films he was in besides the MK films.
