Damn....can't wait. It looks really good!

 

[Camreezie]

Should just make a CG movie , Aftermath and the campaign of 11 looked pretty damn good to me

 

[FatKingBallman]

I was hoping there would be a trailer today but those pics look great:

So, Joe Taslim is Sub.

Btw. Warrior is great.

Watching it right now. On episode 4. Joe Taslim is sick.

 

[Boneless]

The original music better be in.

I am emotionally invested in this film not sucking, I am really worried by no Johnny Cage and this weird plot intro about fancy a birthmark.

 

[sol_bad]

So much money spent on having Mileena look like Mileena.

Will it be a TV "Flawless Victory" ?

 

[JeremyEtcetera]

....But what of the soundtrack?

If I were a betting man(based on past MK trailers), I'd expect hip hop/trap/synth mixes with a mix of asian influence, not 90's era techno/rock music:





When done right, it can lead to some alright sounding tracks:

By far and away this would fit the movie very well (with a few tweaks such as adding the MK scream!)

I understand that's what you want, but in reality expect more of this:

Did you intentionaly go and find some shit remixes that hardly have any Q's from the original. Surely Simone will step up and push for a old school techno soundtrack for this movie because if it's anything like those two examples the soundtrack is gonna blow.

Possibly at least one throwback techno track might happen in the movie. When they announce the movie track list(w/ featured artists) is when we'll know what direction they're going with. My bet is on a more mainstream sound.

No doubt it will be mainstream stuff, especially after those initial mk game trailers. I just think it's a big missed opportunity not to lean into that nostalgia.

This isn't bad for a remix, I still think the original is better.

this I could deal with.

 

[RAIDEN1]

Another variation, hopefully they will have an orchestral version, just sounds epic, transcends worlds!

 

[JeremyEtcetera]

1995 was 25 years ago, so they have to also appeal to the new generation who has grown up on the new MK games(9, 10, and 11) which have a hip hop/trap influence in their trailers. They can make it work if they balance it right.

 

[RAIDEN1]

Will it be better than this (Story wise, music wise they have it ready made here..):

This trailer reminds me how much I hate seeing Scorpion and Sub Zero's faces.

It makes them look less like supernaturally powered ninjas and more like just some dudes wearing yellow and blue.

Scorpion especially, when you compare him to his masked version in the same storyline.

Yeah it honestly kinda annoys me too. Mask define them a lot. They would've look so much better in those cutscenes wearing masks...

 

[Gunslinger]

yeah this is looking pretty bad. Don't get hopes up. Giving me MK annihilation vibes.

O please, this looks EXACTLY like you'd expect a Mortal Kombat movie to look.

It's people in costumes with superhuman abilities fighting each other while the fate of the world is in the balance, it's not Schindler's List or something.

 

[SafeOrAlone]

I think it looks awesome. It's possible I've been conditioned by the schlock of the first MK film, I'm not sure. But I do enjoy that film and I'm looking forward to seeing this one. I'm hoping for awesome choreography, cool visuals, and a thumping soundtrack. It looks like we may get that.

EDIT: Crap, have you guys not seen the full leaked trailer yet? It's in russian but it looks better than the tv spot. Can't link right now.

[Xander3116]

Trailer is up.

 

[JeremyEtcetera]

Looks like we were all wrong and they decided to go with an orchestral score/mix. The trailer looks promising though.

 

[FatKingBallman]

Watching it right now. On episode 4. Joe Taslim is sick.

So, looks one another one from the Warrior - Dustin Nguyen

As probably Scorpion ( he become later as Scorpion i presume). Scene in trailer falls in line with cartoon movie Scorpion's Revenge (a great movie) where he was attacked by Sub Zero clan

EDIT

It's not him. It is Hiroyuki Sanada.

They both look similar to me. LOL

 

[dcx4610]

Looks pretty bad but I guess for a video game movie, it looks alright.

Not a fan of CG blood and it looks like some B or C-movie you'd catch on HBO late at night which I guess works since it'll be on HBO Max.

The best Mortal Kombat movie is Enter the Dragon.

TV Spots from Warner Bros Korea, Taiwan and Thailand.

I was hoping there would be a trailer today but those pics look great:

Lui Kang actually looking beetter since he was in that TV show....

 

[Mr.Vodoo]

....But what of the soundtrack?

TEST YOUR MIGHT

 

[EverydayBeast]

Mortal Kombat fans are gloating over how good this looks but what's your excuse when it flops?

The "original" Johnny Cage right here...but instead he went on to become Colonel Guile!

Sub-Zero design in this movie looks fucking sick!

 

[RayBoy]

Looks gorgeous

 

[Dr_Salt]

This is gonna be really bad.

These trailers are like Taco Bell - same shit in a different pattern, over and over.

 

[MasterDerico]

Wow, so much hate...! Why !?
Movie looks incredible, can't wait april 23!
