>First one is one of the worst video game movie adaptions >Second one is one of the best video game movie adaptions How the FUCK did they pull it off?
>>220475617It’s like when the first Suicide Squad was the worst DCEU film while the second one is the best.
>>220475617Just fanservice
first one was made in the 90s when people still cared about making good moviessecond was made in the modernslop era
This time they understood Concept
>>220475660both are shite.
>>2204756172nd movie is subversive and contrived
>>220475617apparently the second one is all about jade and katana's friendship bracelet or whatever the fuck women do
>>220475617>>First one is one of the worst video game movie adaptionsThat's just being goofy. It's a serviceable movie and not even the worst MK movie by any stretch. It had flaws but it also had excellent stuff like SZ as a villain.
>>220475617*sips your sorrows away*
>>220475617This shit is bombing hard. And this man faced asian cunt's career is over before it even started. GET FUCKED
>>220475617I liked that they killed the annoying asshole from #1 right away in #2
>>220475617Mostly fan service and addressing the critiques of the first movie. The director said he wanted the sequel to be like the first one's opening all the way throughout, and I'd say he mostly succeeded.
>>220475695>first one was made in the 90’sAh yes, back in the 90s glory of 2021
>>220477694All the male heroes except boomer Johnny die brutally, all the women heroes are simply knocked out or pushed . It's jarring. Johnny is just the "normal guy" fish out of water slapstick comedy.
>>220477878Liu Kang didn't die brutally. He fucked off because they deliberately wanted to use him for something else in the sequel, as the writer recently confirmed.

>>220475617They made Jade bald so I'm boycotting it
>>220478010He lost, he ran away like a bitch, LOST
>>220477575she cute
>>220478152You can't win against a cheating opponent. He still helped by stalling Shao Kahn.
>>220475617Why are there no torrents up for it yet?
>>220478010It was very corny. Like bro unlocks god of fire mode and he just Peace's out. Like why leave your friends to die ? Actually I was never the chosen one lol bye.
>>220478335Allegedly the Liu Kang actor got salty because his romance arc with Kitana got cut. To be fair, the movie needed more actual interactions between the protagonists.
>>220478516I noticed that too. Felt off. I heard the Sonya actress requested for no romance between her and Johnny to. The romance was cut for feminist reasons
>>220478612But in Liu Kang's case, the whole romantic arc was shot but then cut from the film because it was throwing off the pacing.There is a reason why Kitana and Liu Kang are giving each other those longing looks when he sees her imprisoned in the finale. That's the vestige of their entire cut arc.
>>220478735I don't buy it, if 95 could make it work, don't see why 26 couldn't. I think it's another Mario movie situation. They don't want the women to be "prizes" or "damsels"
>>220478833No, I agree, it could've worked. Apparently, the one thing that got cut really hard were the character bonding moments and that's a shame, because IMO that's one thing that's dragging the movie down for me. I want the characters to interact more and have some actual relationships.I don't see why the movie couldn't have been 20 minutes longer or some shit.
>>220475617>65 millionKWAB. And there are retards still celebrating.This crap will make even less than Predator Badlands, lol.
>>220478951Nobody here owns WB stock.
>>220475662>fanservice>the female cast are all flat chested or ugly
its dumb "turn your brain off" slop sorry I can't turn my brain off anymore
>>220477575Frozen solid Botox face
>>220475617I'll tell you how they pulled off yet another massive flop. By choosing the preferences of the gruesome twosome (source autists and feminist activists) over the broader, normie male audience. Next up: The Mandalorian and Grogu followed by He-Man And The Masters of The Universe
>>220475617It felt like a pixar movie for edgy parents. Specially the baraka parts.The kitana hentai trope was nice though.
>>220479023I saw it with normies and everyone liked it, me being the only lore autist.
>>220478038Most based post on /tv/
>>220479378Those were fans of the game. If normie dudes actually showed up to this we wouldn't be having this conversation
>>220475617Rewatched 2021 the other day. Its really not that bad as a table setter for the tournament movie they were building to. My only gripe was using Goro as a quick jobber. He should have been saved for the tournament. The Cole Young character doesn't really deserve the amount of hate it gets considering they tied him directly to being Scorpion's descendant and could use him to take on the Scorpion mantle in the future.
>>220477694I too liked it when they killed Johnny Cage at the beginning of Annihilation.
Didn’t like the new one. They went with the woke breast size of the later games.
>>220475617Its amazing what happens when filmmakers actually listen to the fans
>>220479823
>>220475617They course corrected well, said that the first one it's ok but the donut steel character is meh
>>220479823The pool of big breasted women, willing to get in shape for action movies is pretty slim
>>220475617It's like how George Bush was one of the worst presidents and then George W Bush was the best
>>220475617Then why is it hilariously flopping?
>>220481390Are we still being sarcastic? I can't tell anymore
>>220475660Both were disgusting.
>>220481571I only know of Sydney Sweeney and Jessica biel, who have hooters and got in shape for action roles , most women don't try sadly
>>220475716Koncept
>>220475835>>220481591Can yall name a better DCEU film than suicide squad 2 tho? Cause it's not exactly overcoming a massive hurdle to be considered the best of the bunch when they're all pretty terrible.
>>220481632You don't need a big name here. Even if for some reason you can't find someone already in the industry, there's thousands and thousands of people banging on the gates of Hollywood. When you're relying on huge names as a crutch for this type of movie it means you've fucked up the basics somewhere (probably by listening to feminists or other activists).
>>220481750>yall>thokys retard
>>220477850it was a better time I wish we could go back things were based then, Free Guy was pure kino
>>220483091how fucking young are you that you're nostalgic for 5 years ago
>>220478979Only Jade was ugly but I still would. Imagine slapping your meat on her bald head
