>>220447921only four days old and already a cult classic
Yes, critics are useless
>>220447921Why are there only 2 camrips of this and one of them is in fucking portuguese with horrible audio, great video but betting ads while the other has 0 betting ads, terrible video and great audio but it's censored since it was filmed in china?What happened to camrips? they used to be my lifeline, i love watching horrible quality movies that I'd never watch in theaters
>>220447921I thought the movie was based.Love that x is dead and disintegrated.There's no coming back from disintegration
>>220447921>Johnny Cage is a total joke and loses to Kitana in a fight>Liu Kang is also a total joke and gets murdered by Shao Kahn>Only the men die, no gore against women because that's problematic in Current Year>Kitana is an invincible girlboss and wins every fight becoming the ultimate championMisandrist woke garbage and a box office flop. KWAB.
>>220449192Why do people keep posting the cuck on the left?
>>220449153must be so tiring living life being this much of a triggered snowflakesad!
>>220447921I 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.
>>22044915Sindel gets wrecked and then get submissively muzzled and toyed with not to mention the fact that most or at least half of the characters that died in the previous movie we women
Need an in universe kano cage buddy cop comedy
>>220449192>is a faggot
>>220449374anyone /g/ fellas know where the current tech stack is up to for camrip quality boosting?
This movie is fucking terrible but as a mortal kombat movie it was surprisingly really great. I think the gamer frens will enjoy it If I had any criticism three comedic characters (Johnny, baraka and Kano) was a little bit too much and the end scene where all the characters were walking to “save their friends” felt kind of cringe I hope they bring goro back or have a motaro scene later
>>220449374>at least half of the characters that died in the previous movie we womenWhich is fucking irrelevant to THIS movie seeing as how they threw out everything they established to start over with girlboss Kitana. Go ahead, list who all dies in this shit and who survives. That's what I fucking thought. Girlboss the movie.
>>220449513Imagine throwing a fit over Kitana, who objectively is based as fuck you little queer
>>220447921Is it actually a good movie /tv/ or is it just slop like the last one?
>>220449329I might watch it then.

>>220449529Of course you'd cheer for woke girlboss shit, you retarded faggot simp.
>>220449543its alright. much better than 2021 and what that shouldve been. but not as good as 1995 or even the first two animated movies
>>220449513She could only beat shao kahn because of johnny cage.Im genuinely confused little man is it because you have just been conditioned to hate women from the internet that any woman that isnt a damsel in distress, fap fodder(always appreciated) or the reward at the end of a journey that you cant accept a woman who can fight? Ripley, Sarah Connor, Xenia, 1970s wonder woman, buffy, video games lara croft and samus i could list a bunch of female protagonist who were done well but there's no point your either a robot or your brain is fried enough that you might as well be.

>>220450083Normally I only post this on the wrestling message board but Have sex.Heterosexual sex because you hate women.
>>220450068But that's deliberate. Also, the story is actually pretty well-thought out within the MK lore.
post pits
>>220450162It isn't even well thought out with the previous movie. Massive retcons and "please ignore this."
>>220450229You've never played a single MK game so what would you know? Go on, rush to look at a synopsis on wikipedia.
>>220450251Can you read, dude? I said the previous MOVIE! Goddamn.
>>220449329>>220450251>The blood of Hanzo Hasashi will save Earth Realm>Umm actually we kept getting mean comments from Bluesky so now that plotline has been retconned>Also the prophesied hero dies horribly so a woman can take his place, do you like is now Reddit?>Also the part about Liu Kang and Kung Lao being the best warriors was changed so a woman is better>Also we heard how all the violence against women from the first movie was upsetting so only men die in gory fashion this timeLOL
How come they never let Raiden do anything?

>>220449305But this movie is made for snowflakes who wouldnt be able to handle accurate costumes, they didnt even give Jade hair thats how woke DEI dogshit this movie is
>>2204501294chan has a wrestling board?
WOKE TRASH
Genuinely what happened? Look many years ago and aside from few cases, it's almost always that critics and fanbase's opinion aligned. Now it's basically always the opposite.
>>220449192>Abhors degeneracy >Sucks dick and fucks tranniesMake it make sense.
>>220449927That's Jade? Fuck my life
saw this yesterday there were parts were it approached being good but mostly it was like a power rangers episode with blood it needed more adventure and character building like the part with johnny gage and barakaoverall it was decent id give it a 6.7 out of 10 so the critics were right here i guess
>>220450129>on the wrestling message boardOh God... Grow the fuck up. Jesus...
>>220450095Imagine religiously defending this slop, kek.
>>220451739>no u!That's the best you could come up with?
>>220449153sindel gets gored achtualy
>>2204511351-armageddon costumes were on the edge of safe horny, 9 is korean-slop horny
>>220451687>power rangers episode with bloodthats pretty much what MK is
There are a billion canon timelines in MK including one where Freddy Krueger kills Shao Kahn and wins the tournament for the Dreamrealm, Kitana winning the tournament and btfoing Shao Kahn is pretty on-par and has happened at least two other timeswhat's with the guy flipping his shit over it
>>220449927She got hotter and hotter the more I looked at her
>>220452325no one cares about that (((multiverse))) slop writing in the new game
>>220452501You're a moron
>>220452501It's the only direction they can go from here if they're doing the revenant thing
>>220447921the customer is always right
>>220452558>person who thinks "multiVersE" slop #1396 is interesting calling anyone a moron
>>220450519"Mortal Kombat"Gee I wonder why the immortal interdimensional thunder god isn't allowed to competeThe only MK movies where Raiden actually fights are Annihilation and one of the cartoons
>>220452634Eh,in the OG MK 1, Raiden had no issues participating."Raiden is not allowed to compete" comes from the movie, because Christopher Lambert really couldn't be bothered to learn any fight choreography.
>>220452594Some customers are wrong albeit
>>220450519Because he is a messenger of the Elder Gods but he will probably compete in the next movie when Shinnok tries to claim both Outworld and Earthrealm for NetherrealmThis is where you'll see the "bad guys" and "good guys" team up against a common enemy
>>220452819Are there even any bad guys left? I guess there is Quan Chi, but he's squarely on the side of Shinnok, same with Noob Saibot by proxy. And Shang Tsung is Shang Tsung, he's always on his own team.
>>220452848>Are there even any bad guys left?For Netherrealm specifically outside of the obvious revenants like Kung Lao and Jax and Kabal not really, but in the games you had Sareena and AshrahI'd be surprised if Ashrah isn't in the next movie but she's a turncoat just like Jade was to Shao Kahn
>>220452848Possible bad guys:Outworld villains: Motaro, Kintaro, Sheeva, Rain, Skarlet, Ermac, DevorahNetherrealm villains: Sareena, ShinnokEarthrealm villains: the other Lin Kuai, cyborg ninjas, Erron BlackPlus Shang Tsung, Noob Saibot and Quan Chi are still alive
>>220453106The producer of this movie said that for the potential third movie they would like to showcase Rain and maaaaaybe Ermac.Ermac I understand, but Rain? Nobody gives a fuck about Rain. Although they would be good villians if you want to give Kitana something to do.
>>220453106you will never see the cyborgs as long as ed boon breatheshe fucking hates them, he hates cyrax specifically
>>220453205Also, I think introducing cyborgs sounds like a minefield. Because they are a story onto themselves, unless you just want to introduce them as random cannon fodder, similarly to how Mileena and Kabal were treated.
>>220453227I think that's the only way to really have them in a movie is as cannon fodder. We haven't even seen Kuai Liang yet and he's pretty much the only foil to the whole Lin Kuei/Cyber Initiative story line>Mileenakek I completely forgot she was even in the first one, what a colossal fucking fumble
>>220453355But that's why people disliked the 2021 movie and MK2 did really well in trying to ensure that every character in the movie has a point, instead of introducing them at random.Remember that Reptile was in the 2021 movie for some fucking reason?
>>220453397>But that's why people disliked the 2021 movie and MK2 did really well in trying to ensure that every character in the movie has a pointThat's bullshit. All the men in MK2 get beaten and humiliated while Kitana is invincible and wins everything. It's fucking retarded.
>>220453165>Although they would be good villians if you want to give Kitana something to do.Fucking girlboss bitch has already done enough. She should only be in it if she loses and gets the shit beaten out of her. Trash Mary Sue cunt!
Oh. This guy again.
>>220449153>agreeing with mainstream critics
>>220447921The hardcore fans ratings
>>220449153/threadDead to Hollywood
It's funny, every critic keeps saying that the story is total nonsense.And I found the story making a lot of sense with well-established in-universe rules and every character making rational decisions. The in-universe rules are batshit, but they are consistent. The only plot hole that stumped me was "how in the hell did Jade managed to transport to Netherrealm on her own?".
>>220453889>No male heroes winning tournament>YAAS SLAY QWEEN won>Good Story
>>220453615The girlboss shit is the one thing every critic praised, you braindead monkey! God you're fucking retarded, you stupid faggot!
>>220453889>The only plot hole that stumped me was "how in the hell did Jade managed to transport to Netherrealm on her own?".Dunno the in-movie explanation but pretty much every Edenian can teleport in the games
>>220454448In the movie Kitana can teleport between realms because she uses Raiden's amulet for that and Raiden is explicitly shown to be able to teleport himself and others into other realms. Shang Tsung can teleport himself and others, because he's a powerful sorcerer. Same with Quan Chi. Scorpion and Noob can teleport between realms, because they are Netherworld wraiths and that's their shitck.Jade is just some Outworld thug with a staff. That actually bothers me, because that's IMO the only time the movie breaks its own rules.
>>220454611Well, she does break the little Shao ornament on the tip of it before she teleports and starts firing lasers out of it. Based on the FX here I think we were meant to learn that she gained the ability to do that through her staffIt's a lame explanation though
Friendly reminder that this movie did NOT have more girlboss shit than the original.Kitana needed help to land the final blow on Shao Kahn and she used her weapons to do it.
>>220454842Actually, both Cole and Liu Kang performed better against Shao Kahn than Kitana. Shao Kahn was wrecking her shit and nearly strangled her to death. And that was after his immortality stopped working. She only managed to kill him because he got overconfident and thought he already won.
>>22044792165%?That's higher than I thought critics would rate it
>>220447921I'll probably go see a matinee tomorrow, just because I appreciate them actually trying this time, and because Kitana gives me a hard PP. Her being a "girlboss" or whatever doesn't bother me either, because she's canonically beaten Shao Kahn in the games.
Lol. Lmao even. What a fucking disaster.
>>220456103MK11 was fucking ass. To where they gave Shao Khan in his win back in the aftermath dlc.
>>220456150Liu Kang has died and come back multiple times in the games.
>>220456150Hasn't he been a zombie before too
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kd8GLj8VJB0I agree with Kermode.
>>220456164Still canon. That said, I know it's not exactly a high bar to cross, but I think that DLC might be some of the best storytelling Mortal Kombat has ever had, as far as the twists and turns. I like that it actually made Shang Tsung formidable again.
>>220456150Game accurate
>>220456168They didn't expect for people to like Liu Kang that much and basically spoiled his death. That means that Liu Kang was never going to get his moment to shine in either of the films. Now they are making him a fire God for no reason, no build up. Highly doubt they kill Raiden in the third for it to happen either. Oh and the kitana romance is pretty much dead. And don't even get me started on how they might ruefully Johnny Cage to be the one to defeat shinnok ala mk4.
>>220456150didnt he become fire god then time god then back to fire god in the games?
>>220456226It lead to MK1 which basically put the games back on life support. Also 11 and 1 were basically retconned because nrs is going to do another reboot with how shit the games currently are.>>220456244Without any of the build up, which was dumb to begin with, or Raiden dying so it happens.
>>220456185Yes, after he dies in deadly alliance. We aren't even going to get that.
>>220456290Well you gotta be extra autistic to actually pay attention to a "story" in MK games. 99% of people just select a character and fight.
>>220447921I liked it. Yes, it's not perfect but much better than the last one.Why they decided to waste Lewis Tan on that OC is a mystery, I hope they bring him back as Kenshi since he's not a bad actor and has the look for it.
>>220456304Why not?Make him a zombie reborn to a god2 in 1
>>220456266Nope, he fuses with Raiden in aftermath to become an elder god. Which leads to kronika's defeat. He never reverts to a fire God after that which leads to timeline shenanigans bullshit. Raiden takes Liu Kangs place as champion of earthrealm.
>>220447921I haven't seen this yet. Does it end with Shao Kahn actually dying, or are they teasing an Earthrealm invasion for a MK3 movie? Or Shinnok?
>>220449927love this baldo
>>220450677>>its fucking Mortal Kombat>yet gore against the women isn't allowed
>>220449192>alcohol is le cool!>Isn't even drinking in the photo. Fucking cap is on.Top gayest image mistakenly posted as something cool.
>>220456324>just turn off your brain!!!What a shit excuse. Why bother having a story mode at all with that logic? Probably didn't know of the Alex debacle from street fighter 6 and how a story can affect a perception on one's character.
>>220456335Because the writer basically spoiled what is going down in the next movie. You are basically just putting ideas in a blender without a cover
>>220456329I'm happy for you and imma let you finish, but Ermac is the best telekinetic ninja of all tahm.. all tahm!
>>220456150>let's bring back the same creative team for Woke Kombat III
>>220456399>You are basically just putting ideas in a blender without a coverThat's what MK is
A game that hasn't been good since 1993 gets a really shitty sequel movie: part 2
>>220456370Sindel got fucked up in this one. In the previous one I think Nitara got fatality'd, possibly someone else too but it's been a while since I've seen it
ARGUING ABOUT A MORTAL KOMBAT MOVIE AND ITS POLITICAL BIASES IS POTENTIALLY THE STUPIDEST SHIT I"VE EVER SEEN ON THIS BOARD. GET YOUR SHIT TOGETHER ANONS AND GO DO SOMETHING ELSE. ITS A VIDEO GAME MOVIE AND THE ONLY THING THAT IS UP FOR DEBATE IS WHETER IT WAS ENTERTAINING OR NOT. ITS A FUCKING VIDEO GAME LIKE MARIO OR ASSASSINS CREED NOTHING ELSE TO IT.
>>220447921Once again the critics got it right
>>220456448>Video game movies are incapable of pushing political propaganda or inserting poorly written diversity hires No wonder you're so easy to control
>>220449192I'll never forgive Drinker for making "J Jonah Jameson laughing" annoying and overplayed.
>>220456364You're like the one guy looking forward to that Naughty Dog game.
>>220456400Isn't he loosely related to King Jerrod, in that his soul was part of him or something? I think they can easily use him, just get Shang Tsung to create him
>>220456448Don't you all your caps at me.
>>220456448i know, we've been trying to get rid of these feminist culture warriors in and out of Hollywood & vidya for 10-15 years at this point. fuckers just don't wanna let go of the toys
>>220447921>critics like it and audiences like itmust be actual shit
>>220456430Nitara was best grill in the MK: DA days. Not a fan of the Megan Fix version though
>>220456592>We've been trying to do this for so long>So let's just give up and surrender to them and start judging their slop by a metric that offends them lessHuh?
>>220449153>No women dieDid you even watch the movie
>>220456415And you see the shit that happened due to MK11 and MK1 introducing time travel and Multiverse bullshit. Instead of the straightforward stories already there in the first mk3 games. This movie is basically mk11 just set in mk2.
>>220452206>9 is korean-slop hornyYou sound like a massive faggot
>>220456448>want a good movie>get a shit movie instead>not even the fun turn off your brain category >characters are basically altered heavily and don't represent how they should be.
>>220456530The Shite bit, or the slow motion laugh are fucking nails on a chalkboard at this point
>>220449927she cute, what's her wikifeat?
>>2204561503? Arent they losing money with 2 though
>>220456551Shang Tsung is still banished. And it doesn't seem like they'll be there in mk3 since Shinnok and the neatherrealm will be explored. And if he does, he'll just be fodder for a hero to beat in a 4 min fight.
>>220452206The fuck does that even mean?
>>220447921Not interested in girl boss movies sorry.
>>220452568And that was shit. No one liked it. You don't realize how damaged the mk games became because of 11 and 1. Not even talking about the horrid gameplay.
>>220456669MK has rebooted the universe like 4 times
>>220456754Depends. They made MK2 dirt cheap. And they took in 60 million this past weekend against a budget of 80 million. But the Devil Wears Prada 2 and Michael hammered it on mother's day. Also it's doing shit internationally. Also Variety spoiled the movie in a recent tweet that went viral. They would need to cross 100 million to make back its money.
>>220456806And that's supposed to be a good excuse or something? The games are fucking dead outside of MKX.
>>220450062>you aight, gaijin
>>220456646I was being sarcastic because it's obviously not us and never been us playing and advocating politics with literal toys. He should be yelling that shit at the producers, writers, director and WB (soon Paramount)
>>220456835100 million? They wish. Not how that works. Think more 250M at a minimum
>>220456168No he hasn't, fake fan. He's the main character.
Cast her.
>>220450039>It's OH-VER JAREK
>>220456835LOL dumbass zoomer. It needs to make 160-200 million to break even.
>>220456949elle fanning
>>220456754No? It has a budget of just 80 million. It's doing fine.
>>220456150yes, whoever heard of Mortal Kombat rug pulling Liu Kang
>>220456947
Dude...no wonder retards here are saying the MK2 is good if 85% think MK 2021 is that favored.
>>220456290>It lead to MK1MK1 being botched is not the fault of Aftermath.
>>220456850>The games are fucking dead outside of MKX.MK11 was the highest selling game in the entire series.
>>220456949An unknown sexy Polish actress with a big butt.
>>220457513After MK1, MK2, and MK3 established Liu Kang to where Shang Tsung and Quan Chi had to ambush him and gave us that moment. See the difference, you retard? MK2 basically did pic related
>>220457578Now post player retention.
>>220457613Go ahead.
>>220447921Woke trash
>>220457595No, it was more like this
>>220457555Aftermath didn't help things either.>>220457578And MK1 sold less than 11. And MKX is the only game that has any sort of a legit playerbase anymore. You don't know what you are ever trying to say is you use sales numbers as a healthy base if no one plays it.
>>220457637What does MK9 have to do with anything? Liu Kang became a revenant in MKX.
>>220457552Mk 2021 had some stuff going for it like the Scorpion and Sub-Zero depictions, but the primary issue was the main character being an OC, and some of the castings. It also just felt more amateurish.The movie that came out now should've been the first one.
>>220457622Low 3k for MK11. Which I'm guessing 1k of those came from MK2. That is terrible for a fighting game.
>>220457643>And MK1 sold less than 11Because they utterly botched the game on multiple levels. It started big, and dropped off. They blew it with the games' story mode, roster and mode variety, the big draw for MK's casual players, and the money grubbing with DLC reached a fever pitch.
>>220447921Addie a bit of a cute though
>>220457684I hated sub zero in that movie. Being an ancient warrior which hampers what they could do with the Lin Kuei and kuai liang. Also the cyber initiative
>>220457701You know this started from MK11 which also had those problems, correct?
>>220457699That's just steam though, a lot of people play these on console
>>220457643are you retarded? do you think Mortal Kombat is like Street Fighter or Tekken or something? it's a casual fighting game that sells big because it has Fatalities, a bombastic goofy story and lots of wacky game modes for the player, casual gamers buy it and treat it as a singleplayer game, it's not a franchise that's celebrated for deep gameplay and quality animation, and brought to EVO every year for twenty years like it was Street Fighter Third Strike or something, it pops up for a couple of years after release then fades out.
>>220449504Kentaro is the one I wanted to see, it being MK2 and all. But yeah Motaro would also be kool.
>>220457773No, it did not. The DLC for that did well, the variety in modes was good, and the roster was quality. There was a colossal drop off in execution for 1. The Kameo system in practice was really lame, the whole reboot universe execution was beyond pedestrian, with everyone looking the same as each other and generally made as nondescript as possible, and the focus on guest fighters went overboard, especially when they were very repetitive with too many superhero characters who would be better served in an Injustice 3.
I give it 5 bags of popcorn, and a tiny Raiden hat.
>>220456983That's to make a profit. There was barely any promotion for this movie. Specifically overseas since its doing shit in China.
>>220447921Best vidya adaption in a long time. Which is surprising given that the first was one of the worst.
>>220457898>The DLC for that did well, the variety in modes was good, and the roster was quality.Oh fuck off with that shit. You had the krypt but everything else was shit. Next you'll tell me the gameplay was good what with Fujin essentially being the only viable character at evo where it was all mirror matches.
>>220457948Is any movie doing well internationally right now?I was under the impression that the world has an anti-Anerica bias right now and doesn't watch a lot of Hollywood shit.Although my ScreenX theatre was packed for this and I'm yuro-peen.
>>220457879How the fuck do you expect kintaro with Shao Khan dead? In the neatherrealm of all places which will be what mk3 would be about
I wonder what does Japan think about MK2, oh wait the entire franchise is banned there isn't it?
>>220458002Don't know but Devil Wears Prada 2 is currently beating mortal kombat 2. Gotta imagine the new spider-man movie will do gang busters over there.
>>220458019There is a fanbase for MK in Japan. The movie itself will be released in early June there.
>>220456377>Probably didn't know of the Alex debacle from street fighter 6 and how a story can affect a perception on one's character.Nobody really cared about that.
>>220457819It's definitely the more casual fighting game, along with Injustice. There is some EVO presence but not that much. It seemingly peaked with MKX tournaments.I personally don't even play the games anymore but I like the world and I hope they make an action adventure in the vein of Shaolin Monks one day. Something similar but with Sub-Zero and Scorpion would be nice.A Mythologies type metroidvania with today's tech could also be good.

>>220458287>>220458321>that Sub Zero ending where someone says "alright" for no reason at the end, subtitles and all
>>220456150I don’t see what the issue is honestly
>>220458334ok, here's one where she's smiling
>>220458427I miss this lil nigga like you can't believe
>>220456700>>characters are basically altered heavily and don't represent how they should be.Okay and? Who the fuck actually cares?
>>220450068It’s a fucking Mortal Kombat movie, why would it be thoughtful?
>>220458001>I didn't like it therefore it did poorly
slop
>>220458287For me it's
>>220458334Are you retarded?
>>220458002>I was under the impression that the world has an anti-Anerica bias right now and doesn't watch a lot of Hollywood shit.This is utter fucking bullshit. Nobody is boycotting Hollywood movies because of Trump. They're just not watching most Hollywood movies because the majority of them fucking sucks right now.
>>220458334You know her face is frozen because it’s a still image, right? You fucking moron
>>220458427major daniels o7
>>220458334>sees a photo of a woman smiling slightly>BOTOX!???
>>220457684Costumes are way too ornamental and honestly I don't give a fuck about their backstory. Shangsung explains it perfectly in the original film. Deadliest of enemies, but slaves to his magic.
>>22045749780 million budget + 80 million for marketing = 160 million total and it has grossed 60 million worldwide so it's not doing that good
>>220447921The trailers made you think Johnny Cage was the main character when he’s joke sidekick and Kitana is the main character who kills Shao Kahn.What a woke piece of shit
>>220458287ALL DEALSARE OFF
>>220459473>80 million for marketingstop making up numbers to react to, anonno, that isn't how "rule of thumb" works, so save it
>>220458427I fucking knew that I had seen her somewhere before. She was the "villain" of that shit awful Resident Evil Netflix series, but I think she might have had purple hair in that, so I didn't recognize her. .
i want to BE Kitana
>>220458394Liu Kang was never even built up to have any defining moments in this reboot series because the writer didn't expect casuals to like Liu Kang. That's how you get shit like Cole from the first movie and kitana going full girlboss and becoming a different character entirely. Retard.
>>220458088>nobody really cared Capcom literally addressed that the story will be changed due to the backlash, you dipshit. If you are going to talk about things, at least know what it is, Asswipe.
>>220458066HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. It's either street fighter or tekken. The former being the heavy favorite.l above all others.
>>220457992>Best vidya adaption in a long timeOh god, you're a retard.
>>220458147And without Liu Kang, the heroes essentially lose. Deadly Alliance, Deception, and Armagaeddon all saw that. Until Raiden reverts the timeline in MK9.
>>220458628Fighting games don't operate on the same levels that regular games do. And yes MK11 was shit and of the 15 million that bought it, only a measly 3k still play it. And you can argue that the movie probably added an extra 1000 players which is nothing. Compare it to Street Figter which is the top game of the fighting community, gets the main stage at evo, and constantly has tournaments based around it like the capcom cup and world tour.
>>22045947380 million for marketing is generous. Haven't seen much promotion for it outside of ads.
>>220459525She couldn't kill Shao Kahn without JC breaking the amulet that made Kahn immortal.
Ive played Mortal Kombat 2 and 3 a lot for SNES when I was a kid. If I had to play one other Mortal Kombat from any system from any time to get the most Mortal Kombat experience what would it be? It doesnt have to be the "best" game, but just what is the most fun and has the most accepted canon amongst fans?
>>220449927we get it retard
>>220459901She and Jade's actress were both in the Sabrina show
>>220460282the game is seven years old, dude
>>220460517the original, the arcade port if possible via emulation (the home ports have nostalgic charm but are glitchy as fuck)even by mk3 the whole series had become very convoluted and lost that charm even if was more proficiently programmed; everything after 3 is just whatever
>>220460282Literally no one expects MK to perform like SF. It's not that kind of fighting series. You don't get super polished gameplay and animations in MK, you get derpy kicks and a focus on tons of wacky modes and gory finishers. You play SF or Tekken or Guilty Gear or whatever for your fighting gameplay. Mortal Kombat is a casual game, that's why it's the highest selling fighting series after Smash Bros, which is also appealing to casual players.
>>220460517MK9 is funMK Deadly Alliance or Deception might be fun, it's been twenty years so I don't know how they hold upUltimate MK3 maybeMK11 has a lot in it
>>220460580
>>220460776>MK Deadly Alliance or Deception might be fun, it's been twenty years so I don't know how they hold upThe juggling system in those is fun because the games are more floaty. Modern and even the old 2D MK games are more fast paced but I like the 3D era ones.
>>220460776the 3D trilogy needs a re-release
>>220460885>omigerd why am i getten a boner from girl in bondage wtf i'm such a freak in minecraft haha
>>220460146Well yeah, they're Japanese after all. But there's MK fans there too. The one game I'm not sure about is Killer Instinct, even though that's always been my number 2.
>>220456624her alt skin was kino
>>220449788What is with the lack of dragon symbols? There was practically none in the movie.
Do I need to watch the first movie before this? I heard it wasn't very good
>>220453537Everyone gets beaten even Kitana, your point is moot.
>>220461080Not really necessary, but it helps.>I heard it wasn't very goodIt's mid. Not the worst vidya movie I've seen but the main issue with it is that it stars a wholly original character not connected to Mortal Kombat. At least they fixed that in this one.
I would fuck Jade, both the character and the actress.
>>220461080It's forgettable, but Kano is kino in the first one. It's definitely worse than the one in theaters.
>>220461080>>220461135I'm thinkgen of rewatching it. I remeber linking the Sub Zero special effects but being underwhelmed by the casting choices for Nitara and Mileena.
when posters refer to the 'first' MK movie I assume ye're referring to the '95 one and not the '21 one I never saw and forgot was even made that everyone seems to acknowledge was shit unlike the '95 one which was trash but still fondly remembered and has several attached memes
>>220461080only worth seeing for Kano and the Scorpion vs Below Zero stuff
>>220461080Nothing happens. Now, you're all caught up.
>>220447921Metacritic is far better than shitty tomatoes
>>220461486No it isn't
Pretty sad to see a good movie be slandered as woke and be labeled as girlboss trash off baseless lies, when out of the four films made it's the strongest most aestheically pleasing and truest to the source materialjust some trolling antifan sperg from /v/ being amplified by the russ/pol/ faggot brigade
>>220461591it's certainly true to the woke source material of the most recent games, yes
>>220449153Kitana's mother was gorily rekt by Sonya and was about to be headcrushed by Shao Kahn while in bondage gear after getting resurrected, get rekt. Speaking of bondage, Kitana was chained and had to be rescued from that.
>>220461828Still camping the thread I see, still lying through your rotten yellow teeth and out your cunt shaped mouthBusy day trolling, pretending this movie is woke and rings of power isn't
>>220461591Also funny to see how some pretend critics are making this movie dirty when it's the best reviewed movie out of the franchise, sometimes exorbitantly so.
>>220462004>pretending this movie is woke and rings of power isn'tthey both are and in MK's case it's incredibly pathetic they're at the point of running misleading marketing campaigns to trick guys into showing up for a feminist power fantasy film. just sad stuff
>>220459525why did you post the exact same thing you've been repeating on a loop the whole thread as if you're a new person?
>>220449153>Johnny Cage is a total joke and loses to Kitana in a fightHe's a washed up alcoholic actor who peaked at least a decade ago and he admits it, while Kitana trains regularly with Jade. There's no world in which Cage would do well against Kitana before he got powers. This is part of his character arc.Go direct you own Mortal Kombat movie if you think you can do better.
>>220462206The story is told through Cage's perspective, you keep lying because that's what cunt mouthed losers like you do
>>220462206actual broken record poster
>>220461828You've been spamming constantly for 3 days straight and you call the recent mk games woke, but to have your version of Johnny Cage you would need to follow the woke games as you yourself call them portrayal of nu-johnnyYou're a shitty fucking troll
>>220462364i'd say at least the film flopped but a male-skewing franchise that's no longer commercially viable is still a win for people like you. the time and effort spent on making this happen.. absolutely sick shit
>positive tweet has a picture of Johnny Cage>when it's a negative tweet suddenly shoves in a picture of Jade's actress as if she's the protagonist and not a side character at best >trying to play both sidesHow the fuck do retards fall for these kinds of dishonest accounts? The pandering is so transparent
>>220462357She is a woman, though. One punch to the face and she's done.
>>220462545cunt mouthed deflectionnow you're switching to it didn't make enough money, while you've spent almost every waking hour in these threads trashing the movie with the most baseless lies possible in the hopes of seeing it failyou don't want good movies, you want subversive trash to feed an eternal culture war narrative, which this movie isn't and it's sent you into a seething rage, because you can't spin up and feed the outrage industry you're apart of Urban's Dredd didn't do well either, but it's a great movie nonetheless and will be enjoyed way longer than stallone's which you probably defended because that's what you contrarian faggots do on here for shit and gigglesjust like you've tried and failed to say the 90s version is better than this, which is just laughably stupid low quality trolling, everyone can see throughinb4 too long didn't read, kys nigger
>>220462575>HE POSTED DIFFERENT PICTURES
>>220462965Yes, the people who've simply been trying to get their literal toys back for the past 10-15 years are the culture warriors. Insane projection. Just fucking give it back, Karen. It's not yours.
>>220463251Ad hominemnow you're gonna pretend you're just here to protect the source material and integrity of the product, when you've spent every waking hour of the last three days lying and slandering the most authentic live adaptation of your toysstick to the odyssey and rings of power threads, niggerat least they play into your eternal culture war narrative
>>220462995Why did he post a picture of Jade, anon?
>>220463699Like the rest of us he went and saw the movie and realized he got baited and switched.
>>220463773>Like the rest of us he went and saw the movieHe literally praised the movie in his previous tweet and said it was good
>>220463773Right
>>220449153>wokeGonna filter this word
>>220451737You're on a fucking Mortal Kombat 2 thread you gigantic faggot, who are you to tell anyone to grow up lmao
>>220457913very cute post
>>220462364>The story is told through Cage's perspectiveHis perspective of getting his ass kicked by a woman? LMAO
>>220461105>Everyone gets beaten even KitanaKitana never loses a fight, you lying fucking cunt! Fuck you. Lying faggot.
>>220456150>He chose to die>When Earth needed him most he just fucked off because he didn't feel like protecting everyone anymore>This somehow means he's rewarded with godhoodWhat did they mean by this? This is so stupid.
>>220463773>replies to post of him saying he went to see the film and that it's everything you want out of an MK sequel
>>220458394>I don’t see what the issue is honestlyBecause it means he just chose to fuck off instead of saving Earthrealm, for no fucking reason. Use your fucking brain, dude. You don't see a problem with that? They're such shit writers they wanted to keep his death in the movie but then tried to pivot with some stupid Obi Wan Kenobi garbage that makes zero fucking sense.
>>220463852>lmaoStop crying
>>220464220You're wrong but ok
>>220452769Not just the movie. Raiden becomes an Elder God at the end of MK4 and isnt able to compete in Earthrealms affairs, which he relinquishes around Deadly Alliance so he can. Other than that the god status hasn't really affected him competing much. The new movies seem to be leaning into some passive observer role though cause he barely fights at all.
>>220456254>And don't even get me started on how they might ruefully Johnny Cage to be the one to defeat shinnok ala mk4.>Johnny about to kill Shinnok>Suddenly Shinnok gains a second wind and knocks Johnny to the ground>Out of nowhere Kitana shows up and kills Shinnok>FLAWLESS VICTORY>KITANA WINSHeh...
>>220464242How am I wrong, faggot? You didn't even address my argument, you just tried some faggoty Bluesky "mic drop" instead of supporting your position. If Liu Kang just decided to "ascend" and fuck off when everyone needed his help against Shao Kahn, that's retarded. You're retarded. And you're a little bitch for not even having the courage to support your position with actual arguments. Fucking coward.
>>220464104>HUR DUR no female character has ever beat a male character in a mortal kombat video game and I refuse to acknowledge the nuance of the sceneBased reaching culture war retard
>>220464308You're the one asserting that Johnny's the main character, you fucking idiot!
>LARPmaster supreme hates the new woke games when theyre what started the basis of Johnny Cage being the MCIn the old games Johnny is the comic relief sidekick that dies all the time
>>220464388Wonder whose fault that was
>>220464456Him getting fired from Midway didnt have anything to do with this ad, it was over residuals.
>>220447921mortal kombat
>>220464383Sadly no, I'm not the one having a three day melty trying to link johnny not being the sole main character in this movie, in a franchise with a multitude of characters each having multiple story lines over the decades to being an indicator of woke white replacement theory, when it was by your own admission the new games which are woke by your posts in this very thread are the ones that make Cage the sole main character for the main story line in the game, you stupid faggot contrarian culture war troll retard
>>220464596>Sadly no, I'm not the one havingWhat the fuck is this irrelevant rant, you faggot cunt? You ARE the one asserting Johnny's the protagonist, learn to follow a reply chain you stupid fucking cocksucker!>>220462364>The story is told through Cage's perspective>>220464104>His perspective of getting his ass kicked by a woman?

>>220464645sweet meltdownthose are multiple different people replying, you stupid fucking retard, do you even know how this website works, go to a board with flags and ids so you can better follow different trains of thought
>>220464715>Akshually I was a different poster butting in with my simp takes while lacking any semblance of reading comprehension :^)Okay, faggot.
>>220464645Now you're going to pretend your 3 day meltdown hasn't been about johnny cage supposedly being sidelined for girl boss kitanaDo you have any concrete positions you will stick by when you've been proven verifiably wrong over and over again
>>220464738Shit up every thread about this movie with the most inane criticism of it being woke, get proven wrong, no you're the one trying to make johnny cage the main characternigger, that's what you been crying about for the last three days, johnny cage not being the main character lol saying it's proof of woke white replacement for a girl bossing kitana
>>220464129Beaten == losing a fight you dumb dummy
So, what do we think of Cole Young?
>>220464770What the fuck are you talking about, faggot? That's exactly the problem with this piece of shit movie! Are you having a stroke? Or is your reading comprehension that fucking pathetic?>>220464854>no you're the one trying to make johnny cage the main characterWHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT YOU FUCKING RETARD!>>220462364
>>220464876Are you fucking retarded?
>>220464738Simping for who??? Pointing out your contrarian culture war troll posts doesn't equate to simp culture or any kind of it's phrasing, you fucking shitskin moronback to twitch with you, you projecting faggot and your hapa goblin rat's nest, ugly chink mutts
>>220464951johnny being the sole mc is what the woke games do, why would you want that, are you a literal bot and can't see the contradiction in your own trolling, you stupid fucking retard fucking moron
>>220465015they're woke because of the female characters not johnny you disingenuous culture warrior faggot
95 is still the best. This felt like it was made by AI
>>220465070got your dick beaten in againand now you're going to say it's woke because it has female characters when it's based on a game with female charactersyou're a fucking moron
>>220464978>Simping for who??For the retarded girlboss shit in this feminist garbage film, you cuck retard.
>>220465121look a giggling contrarian faggot retard, decided to lay down some bait
>>220465121Agreed, 95 is legitimately the best since the men actually win fights and the women act like women. Of course Kitana had to girlboss over everyone and win the entire tournament in Current Year. It's pathetic.
>>220465153that never happened, you're imagining things that literally don't exist this movie got high praise from the same critics that have been hyper critical of woke and girl boss pandering movies
>>220465211not the first time those retards have been praising feminist, woke girlboss slop, see Fury Road/Furiosa
>>220465613shit bait, fury road is an incredible movie
>>220465613where you been, faggot shit change, huh
>>220465153>look ma all of my buzzwords!Lmao you're trying way too hard
>>220447921Who owns rotten tomatoes? Can anyone answer this?
>>220451687>6.7Wtf haha. Did you think long and hard about giving it a 6.8 first, though?
why does this one "le girlboss" guy just keep saying the same thing over and over? like the exact same post on a loop
>>220462357Tell that to Devil Wears Prada, which is doing multiple Mortal Kombats box office wise and Cage says he's been a has been action actor compared to Keanu Reeves.
>>220465070>girl mean woke chuds might be the dumbest people alive
>>220447921Woke Bait and Switch movie.
