Mortal Kombat

BRING BACK THE ORIGINAL SUB ZERO NINJA AND REPTILE.

I hate him without his mask. And what about Kung Lao

Aku = Undefeated Champ with Kung Lao (Wins = 1 / Loss = 0)

Although i was playing a 7 year old. Plus i told him that kano was good and lets face it, no one in the history of MK has ever been good with Kano or liked him.

I liked Kano, though he was far from my best character.

It was a toughie between the Reptile vs Liu Kang, and Chan, but I have to say Liu.
Chan got owned so bad by Shang Tsung. Had his jaw broken, his knee dislocated, his arm twisted broken, his backbone smashed(Shang just had to stomp on his back), and on top of all...his soul absorbed. That was the most painful fight I've ever seen. Ugghh.

Yeh well Mortal Kombat apart from having one of the uglyest fights at the begginning, Also has the most evil yet funny bad guy line of all time...

"I will take care of this Imputent Mortal myself."

or

"You puny mortal"

Actually as bad as Mortal Kombat:Annihilation might have been I think it had the best fight scene between both films.

Subzero Vs Scorpion 😮‍💨

And just for the record the character that Goro faught was not Arlene, his name was Art Lean. 😄

Sub Zero vs Scorpion was a bit crap to be honest. Had a few cool moves, but I bet if there is a "proper" sequel - there will be THE Scorps and Subs match.

the scene with them in the TV series was cool. Sub-Zero could have kicked his butt if the fight was longer.

Well I wasn't saying it was Oscar worthy for its choreography, I was just saying it was the best fight sequence in the franchise so far in my oppinion.

There there children. We are all about opinions on killermovies which is the nets number 1 forum. Just kidding.

Mortal Kombat is good and the second film sucks face it!!!!

I never said it didn't 😉

I just happen to like the Subzero Vs Scorpion fight scene.

Looks like I found this discussion too late, as most has been said already but just to add: I loved the soundtrack in the first MK, it was well timed and fluid with the fight scenes featuring some great bands (imo) i.e Fear Factory, KDFDM, Type O Neg, and Napalm Death.

Also, what was up with Sonya (sp?) - she was gorgeous yes but could she fight..... um, minimal and too many bad one liners which were made worse by the acting e.g. 'My friends will come'. Thankfully the one is Annhilation had better moves but was still just not good enough. I really hope they cast her better in the next one.

Oh - and why did they kill of Jonny in the first 5 min of the second movie!?!? (rhetorical, I just like saying it because I can't get past it 😛)

Ack one more thing - I was impressed with the ghostly ship and elaborate scenes back then and still am now because unlike many of the grander, more visually aesthetic scenes of modern movies, the ones in MK actually has depth and atmosphere. They weren't just there to overwhelm you at the genius of computer nerds, they had a haunting presence which coupled with the background music led for better ambience rather then being hollow and obviously artificial 🙂

Just my two cents 😮

I have a few of the songs from the first movie. The Type O Negative one is excellent, and I always remember when the first movie came out the trailer for it was awesome.

"MORTAL KOMBAAAAAAT!"

The main music kicked so much arse.

I love that shout too 😄

Aku - was the Lui vs Guitanna (sp?) 'fight' left out because they weren't really opposing one another?

Lui vs Kitanna you mean?

Didn't know they fought, probably a test fight but was left out because it was unimportant.

Yep that's it - I always hear it with a 'G' for some reason 😖

It was just one scene on the beach in front Shang Tsung where they were talking to each other whilst pretending to fight.

OH, I dunno, I haven't seen it in a LOOOOONG time.

The only bits I remember are Scorpion and Johnny Cage fighting througha forest and then in hell or something. Oh and I remember Johnny Cage doing his splits-punch on Goro and then later saying "those were $1000 sunglasses you arsehole" or something and then knocking him off a cliff. My memory is hazy.

Also, if they were to do a new film - how would they show Scorpions spear?

I seem to remember it being a creature inside his arm in the movie. In the latest games he no longer has the creature and now throws a spear attached to some rope instead. I think in the videogames he had the rope/spear in 1, then the creature in 2 & 3 then in 4 and the rest he went back to using his rope and spear.

I prefer the rope and the spear.

Remember his spears in Annihilation? Metal chain creatures on chains? WTF? That was so stupid. He isn't Spawn.

$500 sunglasses 😛

I don't know how they'd show that, since it changes and because the creature head version was pulled off in the first film when it got stuck in a tree, unless it grows back of course...

Thankfully I don't remember much from Annihilation 😉

Yeah, i did my best to forget that too.

Cage versus Scorpion was the best easily.
