Isn’t there literally any movie or tv show not tuined by girlboss shittery written for and by gay simps?Even the far right grifters dont mention it anymore, they flat out lied and said MK2 didn’t have “dih message”Meanwhile even in macho fantasies men are submissive to middle aged karens who kill the final villain
>>220432358No, there isn't. You posted the wrong image though, Sonya did nothing wrong. Kitana's the insufferable girlboss that ruins the movie.
>>220432386Faggot also doesn't know that Sonya was always a tough girl type.
>>220432386>Sonya did nothing wrongHer actress specifically asked that no romantic relationship between Sonya and Johnny be included because she didn't want Sonya's storyline to be about finding a man.
>>220433078By comparison, Adeline Rudolph started immediately squeening how cute the Liu Kang/Kitana romance could be.
>>220432386Kitana and Carl Urban carried the movie
>>220432358I'm glad you're upset, you sound like a pedo
>>220432358>>220432386A Girlboss is not simply a badass female heroine. Stop misusing the word.A girlboss would require some mix of the following...> 1 - Explicit hateful misandry or performative chest beating upstaging/humiliation of men around her.> 1B - Snarky contempt for most male characters they interact with (but not outright misandry)> 2 - Unreasonably out of place/over the top unrealistic abilities or over competence.> 3 - Is used to glaringly subsume or replace a iconic male figure who has been degraded/dragged through the mud/demonized or marginalized (even if she herself did not do such to them)> 4 - Characters around them gushingly fawn over and praise them for underexplained/unearned reasons.Rey for example is a mix of 2/3.The brown Barbara Gordon and Rene Montoya in Batman Caped Crusader fit 1B.Galadriel in Rings of Power is 1B, 4 & a little bit of 2.The Eskimo black bitch in True Detective Night Country is #1.Helena in Indy 5 is 1/3.
>>220433161actual high IQ take
So did he even watch the movie or did he just sellout??
Ludi Lin said that there were scenes between Kitana and Liu Kang shot that implied a budding romance, but cut from the movie, because they were fucking up the pacing. He hopes they'll return in the Director's Cut and maybe it'll be explored in the next movie.
>>220433161Actual simp take
>>2204331612 would not apply to Kitana because being a uniquely competent badass literally applies to the whole cast.Them going with the washed up Johnny Cage I really don't think was a ideological choice this time and more them wanting to case a iconic name actor like Urban before his Boys hype was gone because the series ends this year.
>>220433202>Actual simp takeI listed 6 bitches that my list applies to and are trash, how is that simping?
>>220433174they're on the take. got handed that brown envelope
>>220433174His review was on point. They took what sucked about the first one and addressed it/improved on it.>b-but what about girlbossesNot a single woman in the movie is Mary Sue. They all had flaws and got their asses kicked but still managed to win.The men in the movie were all competent too .
>>220433078>Even the far right grifters dont mention it anymore, they flat out lied and said MK2 didn’t have “dih message”Well duh, that's why they are grifters. There are only a few right-wing commentators that are willing to call out this bullshit every time and they tend to be the mega-autistic basement dweller types because those are the only ones immune to going with manufactured consensus and will tend to aggressively double down if people try to shit on them for their opinion.
>>220433203Also, Kitana isn't even all that competent. She's actually a bit of a dunce. She wants to play game of thrones on the Shao Kahn's court, but she's literally too good and pure to be proficient at it, so she is surprised the "power of love" doesn't work on the bad guys and Jade fucks her over at the first opportunity.Also, she gets absolutely bodied by Shao Kahn. And then she realizes he was just toying with her.
>>220433321>Akshually mary sue isn’t a mary sue because [headcanon]
>>220433174Him not bashing it just shows he's not blindly shitting on everything that's modern if it doesn't deserve it.
>>220433078>Her actress specifically asked that no romantic relationship between Sonya and Johnny be includedGOOD. I don't want romance shit in MORTAL KOMBAT, especially not involving Sonya!
>>220432358Only a retard would be surprised by this after the first trailer all but spelled out that it's Kitana who defeats Shao.
>>220433138This + Kano.Also, Kitana is much better as a protagonist than Cole.
>>220433161No fuck off nigger. A girlboss is any female character that fights and behaves like a man and needs no man. It's as simple as that. I see through your blatant attempt at giving a powerful word less power by giving it less meaning so it doesn't get used as much because you know how effective words can be when there is a term for a specific type of blatant propaganda that people have been aware of for ages but were previously unable to articulate in a just a single word. Girlboss is that word. You failed with woke, you failed with safe horny and you'll fail with girlboss.
>>220433320>If they don't obsessively call everything out they're gifters>If they do obsessively call everything out they're "hyper autistic basement dwellers"You see how you can't win with you faggot retards?
>>220433519>A girlboss is any female character that fights and behaves like a man and needs no manIt's really not. The warrior female archetype can be done right.
>>220432358It was okay. I don't believe Cage can beat Noob Saibot in a fair fight though.
>>220433161>>220433284>uhh akshually she didnt a girl boss it was only shitting on le lore and killing male protagonistsCram it up your faggot ass
>>220433527>b-but what about shit that doesn’t apply here? checkmate chuds
>>220433519Wrong. This type of notion has existed way longer than you've been alive, in many cultures. A girlboss is exactly like that anon described it, to a T.
>>220433544>it was only shitting on le lore and killing male protagonistsI.e what the games have been doing since forever. How many times did Liu Kang die by this point, three? Five?
>>220433527>overly sexualized girl in bikini armor>>220433562>divine pure angels that aid warriorsTotally the same as sexless middle aged hr managers beating up and berating pathetic men
>>220433630Kitana is a fictional Edenian wariror/assassin who isn't at all realistic or an HR manager.And she never berated men in the movie whatsoever. This is a Sonya characteristic but she didn't do it either.
>>220433527>>220433562Simps like you only defend the archetype because you have a fetish for women stepping on your balls so you don't care about how it comes across as long as you can get your rocks off because you're a slave to your degenerate sexual urges. Female warriors are cringe but if you must do them there must always be men who are stronger and the woman should rely more on her smarts than her brawns. Otherwise it's just a man with tits. Only “men” care about women taking on masculine roles because you're insecure beta bitch boys which makes you want women to take the dominant role in the relationship on a subconscious level.
>>220433651You're insecure over a fictional female superhero character. The archetype can absolutely be done right, it's just done wrong many times, like Rey from Star Wars.
>>220433630Kitana is still plenty sexy.How does middle aged hr managers apply to her?
>>220433161women aren't badasses. they don't belong in action genre as the one winning fights against men. simple as
>>220432358Will faggots stop whining? Liu Kang hasn't been the protagonist of MK since MK4 which came out in 1997.
>>220433686That train has already departed.
>>220432386How is Kitana a girl boss? She had the narrative reason to be the one to defeat Shao Kahn and she would have failed like the others if Johnny Cage hadn't destroyed the amulet.
>>220433662A healthy society does not tell women that they can do everything men can do but better. I won't stand for this type of propaganda or the low T simps defending it because they get turned on by it. A girlboss can never be done right that's why there's a derogatory term for the archetype and you don't like that. A female warrior can be done right I will concede that though I still think it's cringe but you look at Sarah Connor in T2 not at Rey from Star Wars.
>>220433519>A girlboss is any female character that fights and behaves like a man and needs no man. So, not Kitana then. She was dead without the help of Cage, Kano and Scorpion.
>>220433174>THIS IS A MASTERCLASS IN LISTENIN' TO YUR AUDIENCEwhat a fucking loser sellout
>>220433726It's a Mortal Kombat movie, you dumb virgin.
>>220433174he is definitely on the hollywood payroll now. getting interview with andy weir is very sus considering hollywood doesn't even want to associate with milquetoast right wingers
>>220433726It's a movie, it's not "society telling women" anything. >A female warrior can be done right I will concede that thoughSo we're on the same page.>but you look at Sarah Connor in T2Sarah Connor is a regular human. She's less believable as a fighter than a a heavily fictionalized female warrior/assassin with supernatural ablities like Kitana.Sarah Connor's character worked because it was portrayed by a good actress and the movie was generally well written. A Sarah Connor can't exist in real life though. Meanwhile, Kitana can exist as a fictional concept and be believable in that sense.
>>220432358I think people were so happy that Cole gets his head smashed with a Hellhammer that they forgave a girl for having the only cool fatality.
>>220433795Jax's death was more brutal.
>>220433618He only died after he won the tournament which Kitana has never done
>>220433795Liu Kang also had a cool fatality.
>>220433730She beat the shit out of Cage, dumbass.
>>220433851Yeah but she's a metahuman and he held his own well enough considering he's a middle aged man who hadn't fought in decades.Also, he unlocks his arcana way later in the film.
>>220433851A disoriented Cage that was just drinking in a bar. It's not like Cage has ever been an A-tier fighter in MK lore anyway.
>>220433759>Sarah Connor is a regular human. She's less believable as a fighterConnor doesn't do virtually any hand to hand fighting.>>220433759>A Sarah Connor can't exist in real life thoughThis is a deranged statement, women can absolutely be competent firearms users which is Sarah's primary tool set.
>>220432358>Fighting game with a shit ton of women>Hurr why are there fighting women
>>220433161>unrealistic abilities or over competencethat's basically a woman being competent at anything other than cooking and cleaning
>>220433886>Connor doesn't do virtually any hand to hand fighting.What? >women can absolutely be competent firearms usersNo woman would survive against the T-800. Sarah Connor is less believable than Kitana.
>>220433888Especially when they have magic powers. Shit, Kitana is literally 10,000 years old. She has insane fighting experience.
>>220433742>>220433759It doesn't matter that it's fantasy you limpwristed faggot. Fantasy doesn't just mean "anything goes lol" you're a shit writer if you think that's going to fly. There needs to be an air of believability and a certain measure of groundedness in order for the audience to fully immerse themselves in the fantastical world and suspend their disbelief. Even in a setting like WoT it's established that magic powers are more like muscles and when men can use magic they can use it better than the women. There's no reason to assume that in a setting with magic and superpowers where both sexes have access to those abilities that the strongest women still won't be weaker than the strongest men.>It's a movie, it's not "society telling women" anything.There is a reason why wokies started targeting pop culture entertainment. You're dumber than I thought if you think there hasn't been a conscious effort to undermine men in games and movies for the past decade and a half especially because they know it influences society and how people think and behave. A lot of both men and women are shockingly unaware of just how massive the gap between our physical strengths are, even lazy couch potato men will have little trouble beating an athletic woman in a straight up fight and it's because of movies and cartoons depicting females as our equals and often betters because sports remain the only gender segregated part in our progressive society where women must make up X percentage of leaders in corporate positions in the work place.
>>220433911Ambushing a pudgy guy with a broom handle isn’t really “hand to hand” fighting bro. Any time she needs to deal with an actual in shape man she has either a gun or a hostage.
>>220433935>writes multiple paragraphs of cope because a girl won a fight in a fantasy movie >calls someone else limp wristed Lmao get some self-awareness, dork.
>>220433078That wasn't even part of her character until MK9 and 10 so whatever
>>220433935>There needs to be an air of believability and a certain measure of groundednessIt is grounded in the sense that Kitana is still mortal and she did get roughed up in the movie. The reason why she won was a joint effort. Had they not destroyed the amulet that makes people immortal (so much for realism), she would not have won.Also, she could've been a literal God in this universe and it would've still made sense because it's fucking fiction. She isn't. If you want that example from the MK lore, just look at Kronika, a woman. If you want the same example from older fiction, just look at witches with supernatural abilitles. No, this ficiton does not suggest "women are stronger than men on average". That's ridiculous to assume.
>>220433946She would've been killed by the Terminator in the first movie. Sarah Connor is less believable than Kitana on account of her being a "real" human in the movie. No arcana, no magic fan blades, no nothing.
>>220432358the poster screams post-wall girlboss slop. She looks like she runs a fitness coaching yelling service.
>>220433521>if they're being dishonest and not calling out shit when it is, in fact, shit then yes they are griftersDo you jeet shills just lack reading comprehension or is this just standard jeet dishonesty?
>>220433946A pudy guy is enough to take down a post-wall woman with no youth in her advantage. That hit shouldn't have even budged him.
>>220433975Raiden and later Liu Kang himself even had some retarded metacommentary cope about his "destiny" belonging to Kitana instead because it's HER TURN then he lost like a bitch and died. That's fucking retarded. The first movie even gave that destiny to Cole, but guess what, the prophecy apparently got rewritten from that too... because it's HER TURN! She never even loses a fucking fight either. Misandrist, girlboss trash. The movie is a fucking flop anyway so KWAB on the cuck retard filmmakers LMAO!
I'm still surprised there was a remake and that it has a sequel m
>>220433975>using nu-MK lore to prove a point
>>220434031>then he lost like a bitch and diedNot really. He was shown to be a better fighter than Shao Kahn but lost because he had the immortality amulet.And that "death" was the least pathetic death you can possibly have. It's debatable whether he even died, he just teleported to God knows where.>The first movie even gave that destiny to Cole, but guess what, the prophecy apparently got rewrittenThat's a good thing. No one gives a shit about OC donutsteel characters and that's one of the reasons why this movie was better than the first one, even if it barely featured the characters people actually care about (Scorpion and Sub Zero)You wanna know who died like a bitch? Kano, to a woman who had no arcana magic abilities. The more I think about it, the more I realize all the shit you're complaining about can be attributed to the original movie. You only hate this cause "new shit bad, old shit good"
>>220434031This is omitting that Cole, Liu Kang, Jax and Sonya all got killing blows on Shao Kahn before Kitana did. Kahn only survived because of his bs amulet cheat, which was destroyed by Cage. In other words, Kitana couldn't have won without Johnny Cage.
>>220434039Pick and choose, it doesn't need to be from MK.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Fictional_goddessesThe entire point of fiction is that it includes unbelievable/fantastic premises. It doesn't magically make women stronger than men IRL. I know this is hard to grasp but it's true.
>>220434082Just to add to this, I still think MK 95 was better than this one, but it features just as much bullshit as the new movie. That's because it's a movie and not real life.
>>220433918She's not thousands of years old in this movie. She's a young woman in her 20's.
>>220434126No. This is the tenth tournament on Earth since the Great Kung Lao. Each tournament takes place once a generation.
>>220433851Cage was literally forcibly teleported into the arena out of nowhere. He was confused as fuck and utterly unprepared to fight anyone. He was lucky he went against Kitana, who was trying really hard not to kill him.
>>220433908Are you retarded? Women suck at cooking.
>>220434012pretty much any hit will "budge" a guy who isn't used to getting hit. especially if they're blindsided.
>>220434164The movie says Edenia was defeated 20 years ago.It's possible the MK tournaments in Edenia and on earth were running in parallel.
>>220434183How could Shao Kahn fight in both tournaments at the same time?
>>220434182It was a brokeb broomstick, not a baseball bat. It wouldn't have even fazed him irl.
>>220434202its clear you're just going to keep telling yourself that.
>>220434191Why not? Our protagonists hop dimensions like crazy, why can't Shao Kahn.>Monday I am fucking corpse wife>Tuesday I have a Mortal Kombat in Edenia>Wendesday I am abusing Quan Chi>Thursday I have a Mortal Kombat in the Earthrealm>Friday I am going to spa.>Saturday, as a bonding experience, I am watching movies with Kitana
HERE I AMROCK YOU LIKE A HURRICANE
>>220434100This may come as a shock to you but you're speaking to two different people and as usual you fail to grasp the point because you're so dense that light bends around you. Women shouldn't be stronger than men even in fiction fantasy or not period. It used to be that the male writers understood this implicitly but there are too many effeminate "men" in charge now because majority of women don't want or care about this shit and never have. Manchildren were always the target audience for Wonder Woman and Supergirl comics and Buffy and Xena. Women who aren't as deeply insecure as their male counterparts actually want to be the damsel in distress who gets saved by their knight in shining armor. That type of story used to appeal to both sexes before feminism and identity politics poisoned the minds of all the lost souls out there.
>>220434225Because he was actually pretty dogshit at fighting. Everyone beat his ass, only the amulet kept him alive.
>>220434250>Women shouldn't be stronger than men even in fiction fantasy or not period.Why not? it's fiction. Fuck off with this censorship bullshit and grow up.
>>220434255>Everyone beat his ass,*sad king Jerrod noises*
>>220434267He had him beat too, he just fucked around too much Oberyn style.
>>220434250I don't think kitana was stronger than shao kahn in terms of muscles but she was more agile and had a weapon. She couldn't have won with her bare hands.
imagine being kitana haha
>>220434266Because it's stupid, it's not believable and takes you out of the experience and it produces manchildren like you who think action women are cool and gives you a femdom fetish. No self respecting man would ever defend women being depicted as our physical or intellectual superiors and the only defense you manchildren have for it is always "but it's fiction le anything goes" because that's how weak your position is. You admit that your standards are so low that you don't immediately laugh at the idea of women trying to be "badass" and beat up men twice their size. You're a slop eater and a degenerate fetishist. Modern entertainment was tailor made for tasteless morons like you.
>>220434351Why does she look less sexy than the original game?
>>220434366>it's not believableThat's the point, it's ficiton. And it's not hard at all to imagine a woman with super powers would be more powerful than a regular human without them.I guess you just believe women are actually stronger than men for this to offend you, there's no other explanation.
>>220434366I think it's great because it makes insecure fags like you seethe.
>>220434366>action women are coolThey are.
>>220434454>ickality
>>220434384She's not even in the original game.
>>220434402>it's le fiction anything goes!!!Please don't become a writer ever you thickheaded retard.>And it's not hard at all to imagine a woman with super powers would be more powerful than a regular human without them.No it's not, but that wasn't what we argued about, go back and read my point about WoT >>220433935 the issue isn't super powered women being stronger than non-super powered men.>I guess you just believe women are actually stronger than men for this to offend youThat makes literally no sense at all. I can already picture how hard you must be seething right now to type out this nonsense kek.>>220434423>y-you're the insecure one! even though i'm the one who developed a femdom fetish because i'm so insecure in my masculinity that i can't be a man and take charge so i need women to do everything for me even in fiction!This is the type of specimen that develops a cuckolding kink because he thinks he's not man enough on his own to please his bitch so he needs a bull to do it for him and he gets to eat out the creampie afterwards.
>>220433114Source
>>220433161Nice of you to define the meaning to you.Unfortunately for you though, Kitana fulfills three of these easily1. Kitana humiliated Johnny Cage for no reason in his match. Treated him like a child. What was the need of all that trash talk? Can't she fight in silence?2. She beat fucking Shao Khan. Kitana would never be able to do that on any game.3. She was used to replace Liu Kang, one of the most iconic characters in videogame history.
>>220434783>2. She beat fucking Shao Khan. Kitana would never be able to do that on any gameGood bait. Somebody will fall for it.
>>220432358>tuinedPost hands
>>220434783>What was the need of all that trash talk?What trash talk?She actually very politely explained the rules to him and only snarked back at him when he was being an ass towards her. Afterwards she never spoke one word throughout the whole fight, and afterwards showed up in Raiden's temple to personally apologize to Johnny.
>>220434953He's baiting. Kitana defeated Johnny Cage in MK9 and dethroned Shao Kahn in MK11 and he knows it.
>>220434229>Mk1 Johnny went viral>everyone loves him>Mk2 (movie) turns him into sad pathetic old man
>>220433182Liu Kang is dead you fucking retard. And there wont be a next movie. This shit is mega flopping.
>>220434351Literally looks like a man. Look at that square head and massive man jaw
>>220433138Disgusting brown subhuman
>>220433161What retard made up this arbitrary checklist?? Men being beaten/outperformed by women is easily girlboss shit. Women beating men in a tournament is girlboss shit. Male protagonists being sidelined by women is girlboss shit. You're in denial fag
>>220434953>personally apologize to JohnnyThis never happened. In fact, she was still being snarky about it.
>>220435204So Aliens was a girlboss movie?
>hag kitanano thanks
>>220434524Ok fine, in MK2 you fucking autist.This is why no one likes you.
>>220433646>>220433676I liked the movie, and I'm not a "culture war" guy, but Sonya is 100% a middle aged, bogged hr lady who spends a good chunk of the movie berating Johnny Cage, who's kind of a stand in "toxic male." I'm not saying that's a bad thing, but if you want to be objective, that is what happened in the movie.I think without getting lost in the weeds with what is or isn't a "girlboss," the main issue with the movie is it isn't purile enough. It isn't lurid enough to fit in tonally with edgy young boys entertainment of the past. Someone referenced the only Heavy Metal cartoon, which is a perfect encapsulation of young boys escapist fantasy of the past that doesn't really exist on a mainstream (not that HM was mainstream mainstream) level.Like, I thought Jade and Kitana were attractive, sure, but in a..."female gaze" friendly kind of way. Sonya is like, a properly bogged hag, and just isn't presented as eye candy in the way female characters were in basically any video game from that era. Like, realistically, the Sindel x Sonya fight should have been like a Russ Myers movie, it should have been the titillating interlude in a deluge of violence. Like, it's a Mortal Kombat movie, it should be pure exploitation and male power fantasy, but instead we just accept that--even though the violence and gore can be over the top--the sexuality has to be completely mild and safe. Again, compare that in tone to Heavy Metal, or any R rated action movie from the 80s.Again, I liked the movie, but if we're looking at it objectively--despite the gore and reverence for source material--I think it's closer to safe, neutered modern entertainment than explicitly male centered escapist fantasy.
>>220432358I really loved the movie. it was super fun.
>>220433174i find it it more likely that he watched it than the anons crying about it
>>220432386>Sonya did nothing wrong. The Sindel fight felt like it was way too easy for her but I understand as the queen of MK it's her right to be the automatic winner of any catfight so it didn't annoy me that much.
>>220433810They were all game tier brutal. I'm so proud of my man James wan
>>220435246NTA, but yes it absolutely was. >female soldiers side by side with males>Ripley suddenly becoming a stone cold badass military commander for absolutely no reason and ordering around the marinesThe first Alien is fine (Ripley is a normal woman). Aliens is indeed girlboss trash, and Cameron is a leftoid fag.
>>220435109she's hapa and a cute
>>220432358Ah, this is the seething tranny thread where they try and shit on decent movies, like how anons shit on their favs. An interesting case study on ineffective opinion crafting lol
I didn't get girlboss vibes from Kitana. She never berates the men or demeans them. She doesn't have an offputting masculine attitude except for when she has to fight. The only man she had an issue with was Shao Kahn, obviously. She wins a fight against a confused and rusty Johnny Cage. The real issue with Kitana is that once again, Liu Kang is sidelined. He was sidelined in the last movie for Cole and now it happened again in this movie for Kitana. Liu Kang is the Earthrealm champion and should have been the one to defeat Shao Kahn, and then let Kitana deliver the final blow or something. Liu Kang's death was complete bullshit just so Kitana could have the spotlight. This movie sucked ass just for that alone, but it had a ton of other issues as well.
why are the only two opinions about this movie>great fights, great gore, fun story, fun characters, best time i've had at the movie in years>REEEEEEE KITANA GIRLBOSS, JOHNNY CAGE IS A JOKEHow about this movie just sucked. lame fights, lame fatalities and an exhaustingly awful story and pointless characters. This shit was a chore to sit through and some of the humor was just really bad. The fuck is wrong with you people.
>>220433078Why should her actress have any say in what her fictional character does. If she doesn't agree to the script she shouldn't have accepted the job. Hate that these Hollywood types even validate this shit.
>>220435992things that never happened
>>220432358>desexualized women + ugly womenwill never watch kek
>>220434783>Liu Kang, one of the most iconic characters in videogame historyScorpion, Sub-Zero, Raiden, and Johnny are the most popular and iconic MK characters. Liu Kang is not, which is why he's been killed and zombified so many times in the games.
>>220433961>That wasn't even part of her character until MK9 and 10 so whateverRight, because, besides her romance with Johnny, Sonya is known for...
>>220433961Johnny loved her in MK 1995
>>220433174Every now and then he picks a random movie and praises it, despite being the same shit. Just to shut up people who complain about his criticismshe's 99% of the times spot on with the shit he criticize, but only 10-20% of the times honest about the things he gives a pass to.Either way I don't care about his approval. This movie is woke shit just for how the women look
>>220433527>The warrior female archetype can be done right.we don't call those girlbosses>>220433630>>overly sexualized girl in bikini armorthe only good kind of character, deal with it. You will never never change this>>220433676>Kitana is still plenty sexy.no titsshe's pretty but she has no sex appeal.Safehorny shit
>>220437085And in Annihilation only she was so devastated by his death. And in Scorpion's Revenge they also end up together. Johnny/Sonya is as canon as Liu/Kitana.
>>220433954
>>220437130>safehornyNot even that. This movie has zero sex appeal not even a hint of sex
>>220434423
>>220435594>sure, but in a..."female gaze" friendly kind of way.then they are objectively ugly
Post it as many times as you want but I'll still never watch this gay piece of shit movie
>>220437181The 90s movie also had no naked boobs or sex scenes, retard.
>>220437220thisjust like D&D
>>220435594I know you're lying about jade
>>220437228it was plenty sexy tho, unlike this castrated woke movie
>muh girlboss schizo still having meltdownsjfc this movie broke him
>>220432358ITT gay men
>>220437302>he said while typing furiously to defend the productthen stop being wokenobody likes it either way
>>220437228There was a mud fight between Sonya and Meleena.
>>220437195This comic belongs in all the Project Hail Mary threads
>>220432358sonya blade is barely in the filmAlso mortal kombat 2 is one of the few honest film from this year.
>>220437352>honest filmHonest to what? Certainly not the game lore.
>>220437228Who said naked or sex scenes faggot? There was sexy and heterosexuality. Unlike your neutered movie
>>220437322>this>wokeyou're mentally broken, meme faggot
>>220437352>honestlmao
>>220437395>desexualization>ugly womendeal with it. it's woke, shill
>>220433651Sonya Blade has been part of the franchise since the first game. You are an idiot and clearly not a fan of the MK franchise.Its ironic that you are crying over "warrior women" characters seeing as you are such a quivering pussy.
>>220437426Wrong on both points lmao
>>220437458>Sonya Blade has been part of the franchise since the first gameSo? She is not even popular.
>>220432358She kinda looks like Stephanie Joosten but with a Chad jaw
>>220437474Gay lmao
>>220432358Is it really girlboss?Kitana has always been a strong MK character, even if kinda lame. Her clone is way better and more popular. So I don't think girlboss fits.Why I think this movie is flopping is because of the bad image people have had of MK for years now, with the latest MK 1 game being the worst offender.Netherrealm needs to make the game go back to its roots so it cleanses the MK reputation.
>>220433726Im not going to listen to sone faggot on a website known for gore, child porn, and online harassment campaigns tell me what is "healthy for society." That's like taking health and fitness advice from a 600lbs pound land whale stuck in a lazyboy chair.Then again, I hopped on 4chan expecting an actual thought out, not retarded, opinion so I guess Im the retard too.
My gut tells me that this Anon is just trying to spark conversation about a movie he enjoys and is doing a parody of "tru believer" /pol/tards who don't know what they're talking about.
>>220437516>says the fag calling conventionally attractive girls ugly
>>220437545Yeah he seems way too unhinged to be real
>>220437534>a website known for gore, child porn, and online harassment campaignsAh fuck, is it 2009 again?
>>220437556Kitana is mid. Sonya looks old. Idk about the other girls because I'm not watching the movie, thanks to all the shill threads on here.
>>220435594Correct. It is inauthentic male entertainment. Meaning created to academic feminist sensibilities. Any normal, straight (young) male picks up on this. It's just "off".
The fuck are you faggots on about? There's nothing girlboss about MK2. Also, wtf is going on with this shit MK in general has had solid awesome girl fighting characters since MK1 over 30 years ago. Are the girls suddenly supposed to just lose their fights and get crushed because they are girls in 2026? You people need to seek help. Also Cage doesn't even have his powers unlocked and he kicks like 5 peoples asses including n00b saibot.
>>220437657Based retard
>>220435594>but Sonya is 100% a middle aged, bogged hr lady who spends a good chunk of the movie berating Johnny Cage, who's kind of a stand in "toxic male."First off, if you think Sonya is bogged you're 1000% gay and love cock in your mouth and ass. Jessica McNamee is hot as fuck as Sonya. Also what the fuck are you talking about Cage with the "toxic male" bullshit? There's not a single thing in the fucking movie about that at all. Movie starts with him being a washed up 90s actor at a comic con getting no customers. They pick him up at his car and take him to the temple and he says no thanks. Then he's at a bar drinking with Ed Boon before being transported into a fight against his will which makes him confused + rusty and equals a loss. After that he says "alright I'm in" and stays with the group because Raiden gets his throat sliced. After that he literally never loses a fight again and in the end saves the day breaking the medallion. Sonya never calls him toxic or any other bullshit and lets him leave when he wants, the only thing she does is glaze him about his 3 blackbelts and fights from the 80s saying he was awesome.Whats up with all these threads and posts/comments making shit up about the movie?
>>220437657it's one guy baiting
>>220437725>Whats up with all these threads and posts/comments making shit up about the movie?>>220437756
>>220437725>There's not a single thing in the fucking movie about that at aActually there is. Kano is a "toxic male" and they made him a hero in this movie lmao.
>>220437771Kano isn't a toxic male, he's just a toxic person. And he does it fucking wonderfully. 10/10 casting.
>>220437771>and they made him a heroAlways was m8
>>220437725Fuck off with your 40 year old hags
>>220437725>Jessica McNamee She actually seems based from interviews. Makes sexualized jokes more than the male cast.
>>220437885Sorry anon, but one day you'll grow up and you'll understand.
>>220437072Being Jax's partner in the special forces and trying to kill Kano, who is from the black dragon clan.
>>220437933Yeah I'm confused on that anons point. Sonya has literally always been known as a special forces person who's been chasing Kano across the globe obsessively. Literally like in the first movie. The relationship thing is all part of the new timeline shit, which is like 20 years into the characters existence...
>>220437916On to the next flop and commercially dead franchise in the name of inclusion
>>220438044huh?
Fuck you, guys. I liked the movie.
>>220432358>Incels still seething over /ourgirl/
>>220437725TRUTH NUKE
>>220438088No!!!!! That's impossible!!!! Girls can't win in MK!
>>220438069Don't play dumb on me
>>220433078Based. Who wants a romance subplot in a Mortal Kombat movie?
>>220438182I'm not playing dumb, I have no idea what your response means. Are you trying to say Sonya Blade is inclusion? Because that literally makes no sense.
>>220438088Was this supposed to prove something to you?
>>220438044MKII just made 40 million domestically alone. The movie is a huge success and there will be a third one.
when i was a small boy and playing tekken. i was playing on hard difficulty against bot xiayou. she kicked my ass and it confused me because it was a small cute girl. in response my penis grew hard and ever since then i've had a fetish for small cute girls beating me up.in real life girls aren't strong enough to do it but in fiction anything is possible.
>>220438231Actually it opened below estimates, 38m
>>220438463MKbros...
>>220433161I was with you until Galadriel, infidel.
>>220438216The casting choices (age, looks) and narrative/visual portrayal of female characters are primarily made to be inclusive of a female audience. The secondary reason being, for example, to subvert beauty standards of a male audience. That's not me making shit up. This is how they proudly explain it to friendly media.
>>220433686What's it like larping the 1950s?
I saw MK2 yesterday and holy shit, man. its like they took every piece of feedback from the previous movie and just…fixed it. Mortal Kombat 2 is what happens when all the right elements come together in just the right way to give us arguably the best possible adaptation of the source material>strong fight scenes paired with excellent visuals that respect the aesthetics of the games>gloriously over the top gore and violence>a decent lineup of characters played by good actors>and a plot that’s just complex enough to deliver a few twist and turns without bogging down the actionIs it a “work of art” that will stay with you long after the credits roll? Fuck no, but I don’t want or need it to be. What I wanted was to watch a bunch of cool characters have some awesome fights and trade quips for a couple hours, and that’s exactly what this movie gave me. It’s a bacon cheeseburger of movie experiences, not fancy or pretentious but thoroughly enjoyable for what it is.
>>220438632So you're gay? Sonya is hot.
>>220438660quiet, drinker
>>220438660This but unironically.
>>220438660Yeah I rewatched the first one the day before going to see the new one so all the fixes and shit was really nice to see and I also really appreciated how it just picks up right where the first one left off with no bullshit entry story telling or anything wasting time. It's just "here's johnny cage and now everyone is fighting and killing each other"
>>220438660>food analogy
>>220438685Fuck off with your 40 year olds hags
>>220432358>hollywood is being hollywoodOh my god, color me shocked.
>>220438685They are openly brainwashing you and trying to subvert male centered franchises and you are drinking it up
>>220438660>What I wanted was to watch characters trade quips for a couple hoursJesus Christ
>This is considered ugly to chuds
>>220438731Yeah, you're gay. Do you not enjoy "milf" porn? Women peak in their 30s-40s hotness wise.
>>220438767She's not hot either though.
>>220438759Brainwashing me into...what? Wanting to fuck Jessica McNamee? Oh no, the horror!
>>220438759Damn right I'm drinking it up.
>>220438660>complex plotreminder that we are often having film discourse with fucking mongoloids like this. I'm sure you would be excited if Baraka joined the Guardians of the Galaxy
>>220438818Anon, you should work on your reading comprehension as they didn't say it was complex.
>>220438767Far better fits. Can start by finding someone half her age.
>>220438795is this the dude from those tim robinson skit driving the tables around?
>>220433935>There's no reason to assume that in a setting with magic and superpowers where both sexes have access to those abilities that the strongest women still won't be weaker than the strongest menInsane logic.>it influences society and how people think and behave. A lot of both men and women are shockingly unaware of just how massive the gap between our physical strengths are, even lazy couch potato men will have little trouble beating an athletic woman in a straight up fight and it's because of movies and cartoons depicting females as our equalsI don't see the problem. The most it does is lead some overconfident bitches to think they can take on a man and that's a problem that fixes itself very quickly. I couldn't care less what delusional redditors and feminists post in their safe spaces or what bullshit they believe. There are way more important things in this world.
I can't believe how divisive this movie is. One youtuber thinks it's the most awesome thing since sliced bread, the other thinks it's the hottest piece of shit. It's madness.
>>220438792>>220438795They're taking a piss in your entertainment on purpose is what mean. Nobody is trying to change beauty standards in women's media. They all get to have their 6ft3 ripped wealthy chads but they want to bombard your media with 5s
>No Subzero-junior, Mileena or any sex scenes with Sindel Yeah, this movie a shit.
>>220433078>Her actress specifically asked that no romantic relationshipactors do not have this power. The studio ok'd her saying this bs thinking it would help promote the movie. That or there was never a plan for them to have a relationship anyway
This movie needed a scene of Kitana getting mating press'd by Shao Kahn and Kano fucking Sonya from behind. Also Sheeva amazon riding Liu Kang and Jade blowing Johnny.
>>220439072this but unironically
>>220439114What made you think i was being ironic?
>>220437822>food analogy
>>220438989>Nobody is trying to change beauty standards in women's media. They all get to have their 6ft3 ripped wealthy chads but they want to bombard your media with 5sExactly. And that's just one singular aspect. Women's media still plays it straight like it always has. While in ours it's top to bottom subversion extending all the way to shady marketing tactics. It's a full-blown culture war.
>>220439136ok, I kekked
>>220432358Addie "Lynn" somewhat a cute tho
>>220439072>>220439114>>220439130>DUDE, PORN! HEHEHEHE
>>220439072>must see porn must see porn must see porn
>>220439178Very
>>220439148All rom coms and women's erotica should have medium income balding short kings to make things equal
>>220432358This is why you never trust WB.They literally said they hated Johnny Cage and didn’t want his White Male butt in the first Mortal Kombat because of his race.Of course the sequel by the same producers are going to shit on him to prop up Kitana.
Lol is the seething schizo still making MK2 seethe threads?
>>220439790The movie flopped, trannyYou lost
>>220439753They didn't shit on him at all. He's one of the highlights if anything. Why do you want the movies to be worse than they actually are?
Did she do her own stunts? They were never going to find someone as attractive as Bridgette Wilson.
>>220438767discount rachel
>>220439280>>220439235yeah. go back to your contaiment boards
>>220432358I liked it
>>220435109But enough about you, rhajesh
>>220440314Because I just want to? Why is so hard to understand for your thick head?
>>220441161Kek!??!
>>220441161
>>220432358This isn't 2022 anymore, that era is over and done with.
>>220438989Who exactly are all these 5s? No one is forcing you to watch or enjoy anything. I typically don't watch things with ugly or bad actors.
>>220433138I like the way she speaks German nglhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RZtD4YyaMsw
