Not to mention, Reptile was a hidden character in the first game if I’m not mistaken. When the announcer says “Reptile” made it THAT much better. A nice little Easter egg.
They really brought the mortal to mortal kombat with these fights. I LOVED this movie as a kid and i still do! My biggest issues were the earthrealm warriors really never using their special abilities from the game. To add to the Reptile Liu fight: what seals the deal is the announcer saying "Reptile" and the music. Paired with the choreography and showcase of the bicycle kick is just the piece de la résistance.
“Give it up baby, I’ve studied all your moves” “Yeah, study this!” KMFDM beat drop …chills. Solid ranking. Honorable mention to the apple Shang Tsung half eats at the start of the Lu Kang/Katana fight.
What about the fight with Johnny Cage, Liu Kang, and Sonya against all of the henchmen before Raiden showed up? I thought that was a great fight and it showcased all of them fighting together.
I think Bridgette Wilson didn't have much time to prepare for this movie since she flew in right after filming Billy Maddison to replace Cameron Diaz. Even tho she's a very well driven Sonya. She could have more fighting scenes if wasn't for that. But when it comes to fighting, Sandra Hess did a way superior job in Annihilation against Cyrax and Mileena.

Atop of that it started my journey as a martial artist even though I know 8 different styles and I am a black belt in Taekwondo. With the fight between smoke and liu kang in the second movie I remember smoke's kicks and he ruined liu kang. Funny fact: the same music that was used in the reptile/liu kang fight is the same music used in the adult actress industry. :) I think the actess' name was traci lords. don't ask me how I know.
you did an incredible job on these. and kudos for not giving Kang vs. Kitana bonus points simply because Kitana is gorgeous af. You are a better man than I. I still think this was the best MK. I don't know how they did it worse this time around. That Cage vs. Scorpion scenery is mesmerizing. I didn't realize all the other scenery nods until your video, so I appreciate pointing those out.
Being an earnest Sub-Zero fan the Liu Kang ✨ Sub-Zero battle was the most disappointing out of all three ninja battles. Their dual was noticeably deprived of ignited combative substance being that Sub-Zero and Liu Kang are amongst the most iconic historical characters of the Mortal Kombat series. There's no comparison when set next to the Scorpion/ Johnny Cage ~ Reptile/ Lui Kang battles.
I'll disagree a little bit with the henchman fight. It was really meant to show the "chosen" combatants how a dude who, to them, seemed very capable and to show the absolute danger they're about to face. Having a more drawn out fight would actually lessen the impact compared to just exploding a dude before the fight even began.
Great breakdown! I totally agree with the list! I watched the reptile fight on replay so much as a kid lol. Are you going to breakdown the fights from the other films? Even though annihilation wasn’t the best it had some decent fights too.
I wonder How would, The Ranking List for the Next Movie... Annihilation. I know. Almost Kind a Like The Alternate Tournament, with Shao Kahn in It. Also For this Movie, I Wonder About IF Liu Kang Had Goro and Scorpion as HIS Opponents... Also with them Having Hard Time. You know. Opponents, that can Challenge his Limits and Make Him Reach them, and See IF HE ca Cross Them (The Limits). I Mean Like Liu Kang Feeling Like He Had Training, BUT Wasn't Done Fully with It. And The Fights with them Been The Final Missing Peace, OF the Training Puzzle, Before His BOSS Fight with Shang Tsung. And the Second Movie... We Have to Remember, The Fights. Raiden VS Shao Kahn Kitana VS Sindel (IDK. This Sindel Doesn't Feel, Like the one in the Games. Just to Mention) Sonya VS Ermac & Noob (Don't Ask. It's Not Noob/Smoke) Jax VS Motaro (I know. Motaro in Mortal Kombat 2. Where Kintaro was the Step Before Shao Kahn) Jax VS Cyrax (I know, Not Bad, BUT Not Much Shown From Cyrax. Only That He is Too Dangerous) Liu Kang VS Smoke (Cyber Smoke in MK2 Instead of Human Smoke) Yeah I know, We saw Scorpion And Again Sub-Zero. Also... I know We Saw Little of Nightwolf and Jade. Also Sonya VS Mileena (Little Hard For Sonya, Then Jax Appeared, And Some Creature Too) (I Was Thinking Too Quick). And Some Other Fights And Also The Finale Fight (BOSS FIGHT) Liu Kang VS Shao Kahn (And a Person that Appeared and Disappeared, Kind a Like Mastermind). NO Mortal Kombat 3 Section (Invasion of Earth Realm). Mortal Kombat 1 Tournament (Tournament Number 10) Mortal Kombat 2 Alternate Tournament Mortal Kombat 3 Invasion Mortal Kombat 4 Shinnok The Rest is the Rest.
I remember I didn’t like Liu vs Reptile fight just because it was in the last part of the movie, and every time I saw it I knew that this great movie will end soon.😢
So what you should've done with the katana fight and mention how shang shung tells reptile to make sure that non of the earth realmers can get to katana cause she's the key to ending this all
Not much of a match, but I think Liu Kang vs Raiden should have been included. At least on C tier. That and him stopping Scorpion and Sub-Zero from fighting Liu Kang, Johnny Cage, and Sonya Blade.
As an original fan who played the first game as a kid and dam near cried when they announced the movie as a kid I kinda disagree with some of the placements but overall a good list. You forgot the fight with the warriors Shang sung raised during the lui vs Shang final fight tho. I think some of my disagreements come from actually being there when it first went down. YOU JUST HAD TO BE THERE to understand… 🙏🏽💯
You should of had johnny vs. the movies guys, yes it wasn't a real fight as it was for the movie hes working on but unlike the sub-zero vs nameless henchman there was actual "fighting".
What about the fight where lu , Sonya and Johnny fought off the henchmen when Raiden came to their rescue, I'm guessing you didn't include it because it was multiple stars fighting or was it because it wasn't a 1 on 1
I honestly believe Sonya vs Kano is S Tier. The dialogue alone is some of the best in the movie(“Come on Sonya, give me a break” “Okay!” Lmaoo). And it LOOKS like a real fight, which makes sense because it’s two regular human characters. And Liu Kang vs Katana was useless. I wish you had an F tier to put it in F tier 😂
Honestly a fair assessment all around. It just felt like such a significant drop in pace but I see where you’re coming from. Liu vs. Kitana is much more lmao
@@FAiRWAYx I think I’ve watched every tier list on your channel today, shit was amazing. Hopefully you cover Mortal Kombat annihilation, just to make fun of it 😂😂😭😭
im 11 now and my dad showed me mortal kombat when i was 3 but sould he be showing me this now no but he showed me my fav game other than tf2 and kirby scorpion is my fav who is better sub 0 or scorp
Drop your tier lists below! ⬇️⬇️
Reptile for the win!

Perfection
Reptile always seems to be a hidden character

Solid ranking. Honorable mention to the apple Shang Tsung half eats at the start of the Lu Kang/Katana fight.
You missed Shang Tsung taking the NPC's soul
Master Boyd?
Johnny was just recording the fight with Liu Kand and Reptile for his next film.
LOL
Lol
What about the fight with Johnny Cage, Liu Kang, and Sonya against all of the henchmen before Raiden showed up? I thought that was a great fight and it showcased all of them fighting together.
I love that fight but I wanted to keep it to the standard 1v1 format from the game
@@FAiRWAYx Hey, it does say EVERY fight. 😊
@@InfiniteTranscendence ranking every 1v1 in Mortal Kombat (1995) didn’t have as good a ring to it
It's my pick for 2nd best as well
I think Bridgette Wilson didn't have much time to prepare for this movie since she flew in right after filming Billy Maddison to replace Cameron Diaz. Even tho she's a very well driven Sonya. She could have more fighting scenes if wasn't for that. But when it comes to fighting, Sandra Hess did a way superior job in Annihilation against Cyrax and Mileena.
Agreed. Bridgette is great from a personality standpoint, but the fighting could’ve been better.
@@FAiRWAYx I would love to see this same type of review for Annihilation!
Wilson insisted on doing her own stunts for that fight as well, taking away some of the tempo in the choreography.
Wow. Great ranking

Everything about Cage vs. Scorpion is just so good with lots of nods to the game. I appreciate the kind comment and glad you liked the video!
Scorpions home, hell got me laughing, also about his hell. In the movie, it’s just a playground but in hell and in the game is just hell

Great video! I’m super keen to see your take on MK Annihilation!
Eventually I’ll get there!
Reptile vs Liu Kang Scorpion vs Johnny Cage are best fights
So what you should've done with the katana fight and mention how shang shung tells reptile to make sure that non of the earth realmers can get to katana cause she's the key to ending this all
Johnny cage vs. scorpion was the best fight scene
Can’t argue with that
Would love to see a video on the newer films fights. Enjoyed the few videos I’ve watched today !
I know it’s two weeks old, but I wonder why he didn’t discuss cyber reptile in his cyber ninjas video
Johnny Cage vs Scorpion Best Fighter Ever.... 😎
Not much of a match, but I think Liu Kang vs Raiden should have been included. At least on C tier. That and him stopping Scorpion and Sub-Zero from fighting Liu Kang, Johnny Cage, and Sonya Blade.
Definitely pivotal moments in the movie for sure just didn’t have much to say about them.

I kind of roll the Shang Tsung warriors fight into the final Liu Kang vs. Shang fight since those are souls he has taken.
You should of had johnny vs. the movies guys, yes it wasn't a real fight as it was for the movie hes working on but unlike the sub-zero vs nameless henchman there was actual "fighting".
Good point
Good video

One of the best parts
Now we need u to do annihilation 😂😂
No you wrong…..I know that’s your opinion but it’s pure Shite …well done “you win”
But your wrong
Good lord typed like a true smooth brain incel
If only Jackie Chan played Raiden instead,
he would be 100% game-accurate and would be in equal opposite's to Shang Tsung's actor.
Maybe he would’ve had a fight too
@@FAiRWAYx
Raiden did fight in the sequel, and it looked like he was doing ballet dances.
@@KenMasters. Dexter Morgan’s dad 😂
Great list. I would just put Johnny cage vs goro at A tier.
Why not S?
Scorpion vs Jonny cage IS the best fight in the movie
Can’t argue with it

fun fact, zub zero and reptile was casted by the same actor
Well Reptile was played by Keith Cooke in MK 95 and the same actor played Sub-Zero (Kuai Liang) in MK: Annihilation
@@FAiRWAYx that's why it's fun facts lol enjoyed! mk for life!
Annihilation When?
Koming Soon
❤
That was indeed shadow kick what Johnny did. They made it flying kick because game version could look weird
Do you have a source for that? I could never find anything confirming that it’s supposed to be his shadow kick.
@@FAiRWAYxI mean if it’s not a shadow kick what else is it
@@pleaseshutup7053 I always thought it was Scorpion’s teleport pulling him in
@@FAiRWAYx true because in annihilation he actually does the shadow. Kick. Speaking of annihilation will you be reviewing the fights for those
