Found something on it.

It's actually nothing more than a short that they were supposed to pitch to Warner since they own the licenses to Midway.

Michael Jai White and Matt Mullins have already did a movie together where they were opponents in a tournament.

**xDmonster** · 06-09-2010, 02:55 AM

Pretty BA. Definitely not better than porn.

**Jakuza** · 06-09-2010, 04:01 AM

And on IMDB it shows the release of the year on 2013. So who knows? But i'm not gunna lie...the trailer was pretty cheesy. Still legit.

**matey** · 06-09-2010, 10:41 AM

but she might have been killed you know

remember he turned into scorpion so prolly the guy who was talkking to him was killed and she too who knows

**Norrin Radd** · 06-09-2010, 02:15 PM

Wake up, people.

That's about as much dialogue and plot as you'll get. All of that reasonably decent build-up and then what? It'll be just people fighting.

Yea, that makes it even more awesome : D

**Norrin Radd** · 06-09-2010, 02:28 PM

Yeah, true.

It's not like that's been done in two previous Mortal Kombat movies and a TV show. It definitely needs a reboot with money that could be used for better causes, or at least better movies.

It's just a pitch! It could change from this point to something vastly different very easily.
i.e. "Just Confirmed! Jim Caviezel to play Raiden!!"
This was very good. Though, because of DYNOMITE!(tm), whenever I see Micheal Jai White, I have to look out for some sort of boomstick or filming error.

**kbe2k6** · 06-09-2010, 06:56 PM

Sounds like this was just a pitch clip that went viral and not something that's in full production..... yet.

*edit* I like the idea of Jeri Ryan as Sonya though

These type of movies are destined to fail. God hates them.

Glad to see someone still learns from history.

Baraka isn't a doctor. Stop paying for these crappy movies.

**BadpcGuy** · 06-10-2010, 07:17 AM

Baraka is a damn monster in the game how can you calm that he is white.
Seems like mortal kombat characters are based in the human world in this. So yeah I don't see the big deal over what skin color a monster in a game is.

Are we sure this is real? :T

Yeah me too, I've seen those on you-tube, pretty weird, kinda cool, how they made reptile fit with that skin disorder, seems more "realistic."

Agree :3

This makes me think that the video in OP is another one of the live action trailers, just as assassins creed and ghost recon did.

Yeah, except there is a story and if you were a fan you'd know it.

This is entirely inaccurate. Hanzo Hasashi was a member of the Shirai, he was sent by Quan Chi to acquire an artifact. He offered to wipe out the opposing clan in return, the Lin Kuei; Sub-Zero's clan.

He struck the same deal with Sub-Zero. Zero killed him, the Shirai got wiped out.

Scorpion was born and he killed Sub-Zero. Sub-Zero then became Noob Saibot and the other Sub-Zero, the first one's brother, became the new one.

It's called research, quite delicious.

How about a good portion of "i dont care"?
I dont need to be a fan to enjoy a movie, nor i care about previous storys.

Dude you are so incredibly annoying, can you please stop turning every single topic into a goddamn discussion? Holy cow.

**frannecice_311** · 06-10-2010, 05:18 PM

Noob Saibot was a special character from the console game. His name was derived from the producers namely Ed Boon and John Tobias.

Bad taste for a mod. IMO.

But I would rather not discuss this, not the place. I know that enough.

I assumed something was up with this "trailer" just because of the length of it from the start.

Then don't discuss it. Don't pitch your two and then say you're out.

"My brother's blood still wets the sand and YOU insult him.", "It's no insult to say a dead man IS dead."

Enough said.
