New Line’s ‘Mortal Kombat’ reboot is advancing to Round 2 with the help of Marvel’s writer

if they get rid of bytch ass cole, that'll be the first step in the right direction

For me it wasn't that Cole was a bad character, he was just unnecessary. They had a lot of real MK characters to choose from to fill Cole's role, like Johnny Cage or Stryker, and they decided to make a new character anyway and make him as generically hollywood as possible.

Director didn't want to put Cage in because, and I quote, "I didn't want to add just another white guy"

So he gets the whitest passing Asian man he could find to fill the spot

Should have been an HBO MAX series



Could have spent 8 seasons wondering who'd defeat Shang Tsung in the end

Spoiler

Only for it to be Mokap

he was bad and definitely unnecessary. the fukk we need an audience segregate for

A new writer is a good sign. Second sign needs to up the fight choreography and hire the raid team, into the badlands team, or Jackie Chand team. 3rd sign needs to follow the story a bit more and stop killing half the cast4th Sign. More Mileena wide shotsAnd hire a damn black makeup artist to take care of the poor girls hair

This movie gonna make money regardless

they don’t need to hire Jackie Chan

Here’s my issue with the flick. The conception.

They overthought everything because they didn’t want to repeat the 95 flick. But the 95 flick knew less is more. And they did a remake of enter the dragon and it works.

So the first movie is all set up for a second movie and that’s the wrong way to go. This guy created the lovely exorcist show so I’m down. They need to let him retool this entire thing, throw Cole to the bushes and just focus it on liu kang. Lol you say you don’t want the main character to be a white guy meanwhile the franchise’s lead character is an Asian and you made him a benchwarmer.

I’m in. The first ten minutes were classic and the rest was tolerable.

Not only was Cole unnecessary, but the Shang Tsung and Liu Kang characters were weak in this movie as well. They had Liu Kang acting more like a nurse than a fighter. Nursing his team after training fights and conjuring up flames to warm up Cole's family.

 

[PharaohAtem]

They better bring back sisi stringer

I said his team. One of his friends was the one who handled Shang Chi fight choreography. MKs was trash

Spoiler: Butterface Bae is back

 

[Diunx]

They gonna have an actual fukking tournament this time?

And please drop whatever the fukk his name was and make Liu Kang the lead.

He should have just been the body Scorpion used

Just have him disappear and be replaced by the better ninja.

1ST MOVIE WOULD HAVE BEEN
FIRE IF WB DIDNT FORCE COLE YOUNG
INTO THE STORYLINE.

SUB ZERO WAS STILL THE
DOPEST shyt OF 2021.
