Mortal Kombat (2013 Reboot)

The Director will be the guy who made the Mortal Kombat Legacy series not so long ago.

Legacy was pretty solid, for what it was.

The first movie was much more entertaining than it had any right to be, but all of the stuff after it wasn't good. I'm looking forward to see how this goes.

I loved the first movie, i personally regard it as one of if not the best videogame movies

Well by default, there's not too much competition. But it's a genuinely solid and fun movie.

I enjoy the first MK movie if only for nostalgia but 2nd MK movie was awful. Felt like Power Rangers with MK characters.

Anywho I liked the MK web series for what it was but I hope they don't "Nolan-ize" it too much and make the new movie it too realistic.

*Snort* I'm amused by this.

What made the first movie was the fight between Scorpion and Johnny Cage. *Nods*

Films like these are male version of Step up to the Streets or whatever those dancing films with Tanning Scrotum are called.

Finally! I remember back in 2003 when the third Mortal Kombat movie was supposed to be made and it never happened. It's taken ten years for a reboot, crazy!

I remember a website that said Keanu Reeves was in for some part in the movie lol. And a bunch of A list actors, that was ages ago. I remember reading the comments and how people were so excited

Tbh I would rather the remake was more like Kevin Tancharoen's Mortal Kombat: Rebirth than Legacy. I thought the Rebirth short movie was a LOT better than the Legacy series. I really liked the more real-world approach to the story.

I thought the best part of the first film was Liu Kang vs Reptile.

But the web series was pretty solid.

I love the characters and the MK universe enough to check it out and be excited regardless.

Is this the one that Jeri Ryan was in? I saw that and thought it was great, I haven't seen the Legacy series.

I personally think the reboot that is MK9 was so well told that any movie will just look ridiculous.

Just leave MK as a movie series be done with the older films.

I use to like the first Mk its pretty phony now .

Sounds good to me, lets hope they keep that legacy approach to it, and also respect the story and the characters.

All the fight scenes from MK 1 was awesome, more of those please.

I love Mortal Kombat, but I've never been a fan of movies based on video games.

As long as this is finally rated R, it will have a chance to be good. MK has always been about the gore and the PG-13 films failed in that regard.
