They actually considered using Tagawa in the new reboot. Sure he's older, but he still has an amazing, powerful presence. Him reprising that role would have been the icing on the cake.
Everyone who loves Christopher Lambert hamming it up needs to watch Mean Guns. Super grimy B-movie with a Battle Royale type of plot with Lambert as a drugged-out hitman. It's Lambert at his most Lambert, wonderful performance (rest of the movie is decent too).
Another good one would have been "Have No Expectations." That would have been appropriate considering how godawful right off the bat the second one was.
I was in a VHS rental store when I was a wee lad holding Mortal Kombat: Annihilation, ready to rent it as I loved the first one. The OG nerd behind the desk very passionately told me how awful it was. I trusted his opinion and rented Critters instead. I will always remember him and his sound advice.
the two fights which are generally considered the best in the film are Johnny's fight in hell with scorpion and Liu Kang's fight with reptile in outworld. These also happen to be the only fights in the film to be choreographed by Robin Shou (the actor of liu kang). after initial screenings it was generally mentioned that there weren't enough fights so they decided to reshoot two more fight scenes to beef up pre-existing 'fights', but couldn't get the original choreographer. Shou, who had previous work in fight scenes stepped in - initially the scorpion fight would have ended with Johnny killing his weird dragon rope thing and kicking him into a portal. The reptile 'fight' also would have ended with the CG creature kicked into the stone statue. Just goes to show that the film could have been so much better had they got Shou to choreograph all of it.
Totally agree. The scorpion fight in particular is very well done and not given enough credit. With the only thing ruining it is some of the over the top moves. The reptile fight - best intro. The sounds definitely contribute to this scene as well. With such a decent budget, they really should have got Donnie yen on it. Flash point last fight scene - one of the best fight scenes ever
This movie is an elite masterpiece and nothing in the infinite universe can change my mind. So happy it finally received the proper commentary treatment. Thanks guys.

"It's like sideways hail hitting me, dya know what I mean? It's just coming at ya." This the ultimate description of the Mortal Kombat song, can't be topped.
Paul made one good video game adaptation so he had to offset it with a dozen terrible video game adaptations. As a MK fan I like him, as a RE fan I hate him.
His first 2 RE films aren't that bad tbh. In fact, the 2nd one did something I wished the games did. It's the 3rd one it started going downhill & the last one which was total dogshit.
MK is ten times better than the Lara Kroft movie James' seems to love. That movie was so forgettable. To borrow a phrase from the boys: at least MK was a big swing and a miss, and fell into the so bad it's good pile of movies. Lara Kroft was just a nothing movie.
This was def. a product of its time and it blew my 13 year old mine back in the 90s! I absolutely loved this movie and I still enjoy it with the nostalgia factor!
What I've learned throughout these videos is that Ben thinks James is Christian Bale nodding while Mason is Kermit the Frog nodding. I have learned nothing else in my life.
@@willmackinnon9397 Its more of a curse, him being Canadian just prevents him from saying "no", so he says yes and has to train himself to do whatever.
This edit was off the goddamn charts!!! The theme song bit had me in tears 🤣🤣🤣 rewound it like 4 times, each time laughing harder as James says “just comin’ at ya” with the sideways hail.
Can we just talk about how freakin incredible the editing is on this video? So many of the jokes are just chefs kiss brilliant, my favourite are the DBZ joke (works on so many levels) and the Gal Gadot joke (you know the one hahaha)
I used to work at a place that did laser tag. In the arena, they had a small playlist of songs which was used for years. Techno Syndrome was on that playlist. Honestly, I didn't really mind hearing it every day. With the bass booming in your chest, it's hard not to feel pumped while watching kids wipe out at the bottom of a ramp you told them not to run down.
Can't wait for the Annihilation video. Btw I think that dude that gets beat up by Goro is called Art. I'm not sure of he's got a full name, but I really hope it's Marshall Art.
Then the animated Scorpion movie has him be a useless loser for 80% of runtime until a fight near the end. I know a lot of people adore that movie but it does screw over the cast.
@@li-limandragon9287 I kind of liked that the Scorpion movie incorporated Johnny's arc from this movie where he is treated as a Hollywood joke until he actually proves himself.
@@jonathonrobinson6081 Yeah but he doesn't even throw a single punch until the very end, they even took away his green energy stuff. The movie jerks off Scorpion so much it hurts the rest of the cast and story.
@@ngultrum1 If they wanted to show Scorpion off with his own story fine, but keep the actual cast and tournament out of it. He’s not the main character.
Starting and stopping the theme song while the discussion about it was going on was just a master stroke. Right as they mention how relentless the song actually is it stops playing, and you get to go 'wow, yea that's not as pleasant as I remember'...only for it to then start back up again 5 seconds later and kick you again. Chef's kiss
Guy, did any of you go clubbing or bar hopping during 95 to early 97. Lord of Acid's Mortal Kombat was everywhere. It was playing every 30 minutes. Great for grinding on the dance floor. That song got me laid so many times, it was my Marvin G Let's Get It On.
The Casting for Shang Tsung in the 1995 adaptation is hands down, THE GREATEST SINGLE CASTING CHOICE in Gaming adaptation history. The Line Delivery,the slithery creepiness in which he played the character, YOUR SOUL IS MINE,combined with him doing the the Martial Arts aspect of it enough to sell it is one of the reasons this movie holds up in a positive light after all these years. My main issue is,and I dont know who to blame,i think it's this movie, people use this movie to let Paul W.S Anderson keep making shitty gaming adaptations. Raul Julia falls to second only due to the fact that his Shakespearean performance and that Classic one liner(you know the one) make up for the fact he wasnt a Martial Artist.
What happened between Chan and Shang Tsung: Shang Tsung has a responsibility to get the chosen fighters of Earth to his Island. He used Kano to draw in Sonya. He disguised himself as Master Boydd to get Johnny Cage. and He murdered Liu Kang's brother to draw Liu.
It's an awesome film! It gets a lot of hate because it's Mortal Kombat and MK is associated with violence but this movie is pretty clean. However, if they aimed for a higher age bracket, no one would have been able to come and watch it; after all it was the 12-15 kids, perhaps even younger that were hyping up those games not adults. They knew what they were doing really.
dunno if anyone is keeping count on a top tier list of best banter between the two but the back and forth around the mortal kombat soundtrack has to be up there surely, each line was gold
Just Gonna say that this was one of the best movies ever made for a game. It was great especially the Fight between Reptile vs Liu Kang. This movie was my life at one point. The edits as usual are masterful great video.
The guy who played Kano was from England, Croydon or something like that but put on an "Australian accent" in pretty much everything he did. He claimed to actually be Australian until his parents said that was bs and he's English.
I was obsessed with the Mortal Kombat game, movie, and most importantly the song. It was the most badass thing I had ever heard. Was so disappointed that they never put the song in the games.
I can confirm there was a Mortal Kombat on stage. Went when I was a kid and saw it. I am now 32 and my parents still give me shit for making them take me to see "that stupid video game play." Flawless victory.
For the first time ever, I went deep into the comments to try to find a quote from James… but instead came out realizing… yeah, Ben straight kills it with his editing. I have no idea how he connects soooo much stuff so well.
I would argue that the actress who played Sonya Blade(Bridgette Wilson) did better fight choreography in Last Action Hero than Mortal Kombat. I didn't notice how limited her fights were as a kid, she was the character I always pretended to be.
Kinda makes sense now finding out that she was a replacement for Diaz. I just always assumed she was really stiff and sucked, but maybe she just didn't have enough time to train.

The Casting for Shang Tsung in the 1995 adaptation is hands down, THE GREATEST SINGLE CASTING CHOICE in Gaming adaptation history.
