Johnny Cage punching goro in the balls and calling him an rear end in a top hat for breaking his sunglasses was a better moment than anything in mk2021 and his reward was not being in it

Sunk Dunk posted:also im pretty sure i could write a better mortal kombat script if you gave me 30 days Here's how you write a better MK script: -Keep that opening Scorpian Sub Zero fight cause that poo poo was cool - Cole whatever his name is is introduced - Raiden teleports them (Good guys: Sonya, Johnny Cage, Cole, Liu Kang THE ACTUAL HERO etc) to island Cole: "Where are we?" Raiden: "This is Shang Tsung's island, he's a bad guy, if you lose this tournament the world ends" Cole: "hmm I dont know, sounds like some bullshit to me" *Goro comes around the corner picks up Cole and rips him in half* *Johnny Cage makes a funny quip* -Tournament begins go from there, that's literally the first 15 minutes HOW CAN YOU gently caress THIS UP SO BADLY?

Was there even an official tournament in this movie From what I remember it was just a long rear end Raiden cave training montage for the middle of it then at the end it's more like Shang Tsung's crew shows up and they start fighting and then it just kind of ends with that last fight

And the second movie is set in Outworld, Shao Kahn is introduced (he's the big bad at the very end of the 90s movie), Scorpian is set free and fights for the good guys, and because it's literally set in another dimension/ planet you can introduce all sorts of cool new fighters. But nah they had to insert their fan fic character into the story I guess.

Neurolimal posted:If you want every character to have a rich interconnected backstory where they spar with several memorable star wars characters you could just read EU comics i don't think we need an actual background dive to snoke in tlj in so far as the mystery is solved guys, we now know that he turned to the darkside because he got stood up at prom once or w/e, we just needed snoke to be more than a dumb boss who just yells at ren who gets cut in half by him when he tantrums, because what we really needed was an explanation for how all this first order business came about because as it stands, the sequels and the OT are connected very poorly in terms of plot continuation and snoke seems like the best bet to tie it all together since he's at the centre of the empire coming back as the first order, why kylo falls, and why all the pieces of the galaxy have been shifting the way they have all these years as far as the sequels go, it's almost like rotj never happened, it's like there's just this flash forward to an old, sad, traumatized luke who hid away all those years after bespin, there's an empire that was never thwarted that's still blowing up planets with superweapons, the rebels, still led by leia, are still on the backfoot with zero popular traction, han and leia never really got together except for this one-night love child, vader is still venerated by dorks as a great sith as tho he never turned his back on that, and as the sequels developed, palpatine himself just sorta never died? there's a lot of stuff that could use some filling in, and that could have been fun too but the various directors kept dodging it - snoke doesn't have to be actual lynchpin if you have something else in mind, yeah, but the fact that there was nothing really emphasizes what a waste he was

i liked the part when sub zero and scorpion were fighting and talking to each other in their language (chinese or japanese, I honestly forget), and scorpion drops that he has a new name now, it's Scorpion, in english. because ancient asiatic warriors choose bog standard english tough guy names for themselves to tell other warriors about during combat.

or the mysterious dragon tattoos that let you fight in the mortal kombat tournament. something the liu kang monks all know about. so they called it, in typical chinese monk fashion, 'Arcana'.

Neurolimal posted:"The empire didnt just disappear because you blew up a second death star & threw an old guy down a pit" was the most reasonable idea of the ST imo Yeah, the foundational problem with the ST was in The Force Awakens, when they decided that Return of the Jedi really was the end of the Empire, and there was a New Republic, but somehow they was also a powerful, villainous First Order fighting a scrappy underdog Resistance.

about half way through, Cole Slaw, who has really nothing to do at this point, develops literally Plot Armor, and immediately becomes a rear end kicker.

Neurolimal posted:"The empire didnt just disappear because you blew up a second death star & threw an old guy down a pit" was the most reasonable idea of the ST imo i would agree with you but the empire not disappearing overnight is more an old EU idea, the sequel trilogy itself conceded that the empire was dead (even tho it's really obvious they wanted it around), that's why it felt compelled to present the first order as a brand new organization that's become a novel threat that's only aping the empire out of misplaced nostalgia

I remember being bummed in Force Awakens when it turned out Snoke was a hologram. Since holograms always have to be shimmery and blue I thought he was some giant alien and thought that was cool as hell. bitterandtwisted posted:I want a MK movie faithful to the game with half the cast played by two actors and a claymation Goro If I saw a stop motion Goro in a Mortal Kombat movie trailer I'd be hootin and hollerin

You've got the Imperial Remnant vs the New Republic. Perfect. Everything you need to know is in the names. You don't need to go more complicated than that in your space stories for babies.
