The guy busts myths for a living, he should know
While teasers or trailers are what you normally see before release, a few production houses or directors might opt to instead show a scene from the movie. It saves time and often gets people more excited because they get a better idea of the look and pacing of the movie.I don't think this teaser is for a movie... Too long for a trailer, reveals too much of the story I think.
Oh great, now you said it, and now it's going to suck....It certainly can't be any worse than the old ones!
I have played both games and I have no idea what you mean.Oh, and does anyone notice that this may play out a lot like MK2? I have a large feeling the whole storyline of Scorpion and Sub-Zero will follow the MK2 dynamic rather then the MK1 dynamic. Anyone that has played both games knows what I am talking about.
Well, I was one of those kids that not only would wait before putting in my quarter to watch the little "character detail" and "story" breakdowns that would pass when not playing, but I also beat the games with every character, so I knew all the little ending stories. Just for those that didn't know what I meant, I will explain the story of Scorpion from MK2. Going to add a spoiler tag just in case any of it turns out to be close to how they play it.I have played both games and I have no idea what you mean.
Actually I think that will probably be it. People took a still picture of the "flash" of Sub-Zeros face while Scorpion is thinking about him, and he is wearing something that looks more like a mechanical mask rather then his straight ninja-mask. This could mean his "armor" is more of a contraption that may be filled with liquid nitrogen and use hoses to pump it to his victims. He just grabs someone and the liquid streams from his hands.What they're gonna have a problem explaining is Sub-Zero's powers... at least given the realistic-ish context they gave the others in the trailer. What are they gonna go with? Liquid nitrogen sprays in the gloves?
Agreed, fitting in the little things from the game sold me. Plus it has Michael Jai White, dude has always been badass, just hasnt been so lucky with his carrier as other action starsIMDB lists a new Mortal Kombat movie for 2013, so this looks to fit that. Although their listing does say the project is held up in a legal battle right now.

I liked Jax fitting in lines like "Fatality" and "Finish Him". That was a bit of fan service that paid off with me.

You shut your filthy muggle mouth!!Jeri Ryan's too old, though, me thinks.
It seemed to work fine in the games.Still trying to figure out how they're going to deal with Johnny being dead.

Agreed. I think they would be smart to have fewer characters fighting (a la Mortal Kombat) in favor of having bigger fights from the guys who have to fight. One of the problems with the previous movies (among many, many problems) was how every major character, practically, got their starring fight.Sonya doesn't have to be young though, she just has to be an ass-kicking cop.
I think they just did. In like the two minutes you got to see. He's dead.Still trying to figure out how they're going to deal with Johnny being dead.

It's either the most egregious waste of fan money in history, or it's real.

Yeah, if they can get away with chalking Reptile up to a birth defect and Barraka up to cosmetic surgery, I don't see why Goro, Raiden, and Sub Zero couldn't be explained in similar manners. Goro could be another birth defect and Raiden and Sub Zero could each have devices that shoot electricity and liquid notrogen, respectively. Heck, they might even just get away with not explaining it at all, like Scorpion in this clip. The word "realistic" is used incredibly loosely in movies these days, so whether any of this would be possible in the real world (hint: it wouldn't) doesn't matter, its just using things more grounded in reality to explain things that aren't.I wouldn't have been able to explain Reptile if they hadn't put him in this short (ex: They made mention of his head eating, but not that he had acid spit) They seem to have really good ideas so far.
I really don't think that was the problem with Spider-Man 3. Not that it wasn't horrible, it absolutely was. But I don't fell like the number of characters was the problem. The problem was with how the characters were handled. Sam Raimi (well, maybe not, but someone) could have juggled introducing Sandman, Venom and Gwen Stacey into the mix, but he didn't want to because he hates VenomThey wouldn't have to explain everyone though, simply because they're not obligated to include every character. Trying to cram too many characters into the movie, just for fan service, is a bad idea. Just look at Spider Man 3.
It's all right, a couple of drinks, a few severed heads, and you'll be the best of friends.Me like! But I barely know Mortal Kombat though.
Which is a good thing, although I miss my black smoke ninja man.The feeling I got from the trailer is that they want to avoid all the supernatural and interdimensional stuff.
