In just my last post I was bitching about Mortal Kombat and how much It sucked. (I should note however that it has one of the best soundtracks I have ever heard for an action movie.) Not only did the movie suck; but the game sucked too. Never has a video game received more undo praise than mortal combat – the only saving grace the game had were the fucking fatalities (Virtua Fighter for life). So you can imagine how pumped I was to learn that a REINVISONING of Mortal Kombat is in the works. We get the scoop from moviehole:
“The movie is not going to be a prequel, sequel, or in any form be related to the previous 2 movie. Pretty much like Batman Begins, is going to restart the series with new concepts, stories,etc.
I have to admit that the best thing you can do with this franchise, is pretend the franchise never happened. Although I do not like the previous movies/games I will admit that the characters are cool as fuck and the opportunities to make a wicked tournament – style film are there. Less story and more octagon fighting is what is needed. More Goro less talk.
