glaciers & Chris kanyon jokes and also Kenny Omega is probably watching the supper so it's somewhere in the world thinking thank you or osw of you and none of you can claim him can claim them as your boy
Really chortling at the image of a greasy 18 year old Maffew, wearing an austin 3: 16 shirt in a dance club going, "This isn't like Mortal Kombat at all! This is shite!"
The clip of JCVD getting a white powder thrown in his face while mentioning how much blow he did filming Street Fighter is the kind of thing that keeps me coming back here.
Crossing the streams a bit, but the more I think about it, the more I realize that Goro is just the MK version of mid 90s Sid. Awesome theme music. Big man power moves. Limited mobility with maximum hotdogging. You could say...he has twice the arms you have. And he has half the brain that you do.
"It's hard to give out while you are marking out" is probably the best quote from any OSW. Great stuff as always, can't wait for the next MK film review
Even as a child I always thought the Johnny Cage autographed photo belonged to Scorpion and it was just a film joke, like “isn’t it funny that this demon is Johnny Cage’s #1 fan?”
Cage gives someone an autographed photo at the start of the film, I always thought that bit was them going "Yeah that guy Cage stupidly gave the photo to earlier? It was Scorpion all along!" I watched this movie for the first time a few years back with some friends, and that was THE moment of the film. Such a fun little punchline.
(35:12) “Get down here!” “Stay over there!” “I’ll be there in a minute!” V1’s got me in stitches with this quote and his angry cover of the nWo theme song. 🤣
Fun fact: the henchmen in the red head wraps were originally meant to be tarkatans (Baraka and co), but they didn’t have it in the budget to make 100 of those costumes.
This is beyond fantastic. The amount of nostalgia in this is so overwhelming I adore it. Being the big Mortal Kombat fan that I am, this is absolute perfection. I love all the massive attention to detail to the research, trivia and commentary. The jokes in this are god tier. This is class. You have outdone yourself Jay.
I love that you guys did a review of this. It's legit one of my favorite movies for all the mark out moments. I saw it in theater in my 20s on opening day.
I first saw this from the GamesMaster show (which is coming back this year), but the first time I played it was on the arcade at Flamingo Land. Never got to beat it, but we watched someone played through the entire game as Sub Zero, that's always been stuck in my mind seeing that ending.
My friends and I saw the first MK at the drive-in theater. It was a blast! Except for the mosquitos, but the concession stand nachos always made up for it.
Excellent review lads, 10/10 Bret Hart gives 5/10 says the matches could have been more technical, more story. I give the movie 8/10, 10/10 soundtrack Great nostalgia, great mindless fighting sequences.
2 wopper episodes of O.S.W. new story arc in less than a month.. I'm feeling very spoiled right about now..cheers guys, much appreciated! I really, realy want to run into the street and shout MORTAL KOMBAT as loud as I can😀
Lovely video as always boys. Concerning the arcade scene, goodness such a difference from the early 90's compared to now. A few hours from me there's a Round One arcade. Seeing the all seated fighting game cabinets, driving games, etc damn near brought me to tears. Had so much fun that day.
By the way kudos to you guys this is one of the best episodes you've ever done. You are everything that is pro wrestling super Nintendo and Sega Genesis
I still have my VHS of Mortal Kombat…. Somewhere :D I watched this so many times and it’s amazing it’s “held up”? I mean I agree with you, it’s not great, but it’s good enough and doesn’t overstay it’s welcome! Great vid, good to have Maffew back too!
15:19 - Jimmy Bennétt has tuned in and roundhouse kicks some random knackers in celebration as "LIVE, LAUGH, LOVE AND SURVIVE" plays on repeat in the background
It's not what we wanted at the time...but "The Spaghetti Incident?" is pretty awesome. Raw Power, Ain't It Fun, Human Being, Hair of the Dog, Black Leather, You Can't Put your Arms Around a Memory... Great stuff!
This was absolutely phenomenal lads. Matthew appearance too! This was seriously one of your best movie reviews so far. I happen to love this film...more than I should despite all it's flaws, and as covered in the review, there are many. Absolutely agree with pretty much everything said in the film. I did not know that Tom Cruise was offered Johnny Cage, or that he hung out on set. Banger score. All the remixes that were done from it...it's kind of iconic. Looking forward to you guys shredding "Annihilation" if that is what you are planning on doing!
Oh right! He's a lovely dude, I'm on to him often enough, whenever we do some old English ppvs/shows we should have him on 🙂 been a fan of his since Wes & Larry on the telly!
@@OSW oh yes I'd love to see that! I completely lost it the moment Maff started talking about Larry's video cause I immediately remembered almost wetting my pants cause of Larry's boi stable bit when I saw his video.
39:39 Fun Fact! There’s a before-the-fight interaction in Mortal Kombat X between Johnny and Tremor (Brown Earth Ninja) were Tremor reveals he’s a fan of Johnny Cage’s movies.
Yes, Gerald Okamura, else was fighters Rodney Mitchell- bald black skin warrior, Fumio Demura- samurai, Sidney S.Liufau- with stick. One fighter was in american show Fight Zone 1995 as Mozarr i dont know his name. And last warrior i dont know too(
The Bloodsport clip of Van Damme getting hit with freedom powder while talking about how he did a bunch coke on the set of Street Fighter - excellent work lads.
Is it bad that, even as a kid, when Shang Tsung kept saying "flawless victory" I was like "MATE CHECK THE HEALTH BARS, HE CLEARLY TOOK HITS" XD Fantastic review!
I know this ain't the video for it, but I just saw @OSW Reviews mentioned on the glossary of pro wrestling terms Wikipedia page for referencing Bret's rope. ( The most dangerous rope) You did it boys. And if I'm years late to the party, congrats anyway.
Woke my wife up belly laughing at the surprise Art O'Donoooooo cameo, god damn. I love this movie forever, I saw both the 90s MK flicks in the theater with my mom, she loves them too.
Just watched the 2021 reboot/remake/re-whatever movie, and I have to say, this one is still better. Yeah, it's cheesy, and the CGI doesn't hold up AT ALL, but it's still a fun ride that doesn't overcomplicate things, and it's just a crowd-pleaser. I remember going to see this in the theater as a kid, and my mom taking me and my brother, and she actually had a great time with it, much to my surprise. She's still one of the harshest movie critics I've ever met, and she thought it was a really fun popcorn flick, which to me at least shows what kind of mainstream appeal it has.
Yeah everyone said he had magic hands. Not talking about ice magic in the film. Somehow he kept everyone going through his massages. Got them through injury. You could be thrown off a cage and wrestle the next night with this guy Maybe "massage therapist" is innuendo for "has a big bag of drugs"
Scorpion got that signed photo at the release of Cage’s film “Ninja Mime.” He was gonna show Johnny his huge Johnny Cage merch collection in pirate hell after their fight. Unfortunately, Scorpion exploded before he had the chance.
Great memories seeing this at the cinema in 95! 15 year old awesomeness to wipe away the SF Movie filth from my mind. Played this soundtrack on my walkman everywhere!
Both MK movies had amazing soundtracks, filled with all sorts of 90s Industrial awesomeness (and the first had Chicago hometown boys Sister Machine Gun's Burn, which is a great song)
The French ad with Lambert reads thus: "Hold up, how are you so good with this character? The game just came out!" "Let's just say we're kinda familiar with each other. Hahaha! ...sorry."
The musicians behind Mortal Kombat's iconic techno music credited themselves on the original MK soundtrack as The Immortals--- they were actually 2 founding members of the provocative and controversial techno/industrial dance band Lords of Acid.
It’s such a blessing that you guys were able to review this movie. I still have my VHS copy of MK. Really stoked to watch you guys review MK Annihilation since it’s going to be bollocks lol. 😅 Also what’s the soundtrack in the beginning of the aftermath? It’s really good 👍🏼
I love that Trevor Goddard had a sh!t cockney accent, because his performance is what characterized Kano. Which is hilarious, because you have all these other actors trying to emulate this guy, who's entire performance was a botch
There was a big arcade in my hometown which had an entire floor for laser tag. All they did - is play 3 songs. One was the MK theme... whenever that hit, I'd start karate kicking people's guns from their hands. I'd get yelled at, "son, that's not how you play.' But like.... Mortal Kombat.
Super stoked that they mentioned that the Scorpion-Johnny Cage fight is soundtracked by the immortal “Zero Signal” by Fear Factory. The album it’s off, Demanufacture, is literally perfect.
Man, I used to take martial art lessons at a gym in Chicago. The guy who did the mocap for Lui Kang ended up dating the mocap actor for Kitana. He was also in the Raphael suit in the live action TMNT movies.
Bridgette Wilson was believable enough for me. Glad she did her own stunts.. we know it wasn't a body double bustin' out of that tank top. Robo babe then and now!

Brilliant review again guys. Would love to see u do awol with van damme
I feel you need Phelan on here :p
Really chortling at the image of a greasy 18 year old Maffew, wearing an austin 3: 16 shirt in a dance club going, "This isn't like Mortal Kombat at all! This is shite!"
"So, when do they turn on the blood sprinklers and really kick this party up a gear?"
Thanks for recommending this video to me Matt.
The clip of JCVD getting a white powder thrown in his face while mentioning how much blow he did filming Street Fighter is the kind of thing that keeps me coming back here.
Freedom Powder*
For me, Cary being 'immortalized' as the face and voice of Shang Tsung in the game was just amazing. He definitely deserved it.
Absolutely, Cary is who I think of when I think of Shang Tsung, he makes that role his own.
Kano also became Australian after this movie
Bringing the other actors back for alternate costumes and voices was awesome too. Shame Trevor Goddard had passed already.
Art Donovan when seeing the Goro fight: "Dat guy has four arms, that's not fair! The other guy only has half the amount!"
How much does that guy weight ?
That Shang Tsung is a cutie.
Crossing the streams a bit, but the more I think about it, the more I realize that Goro is just the MK version of mid 90s Sid.
Awesome theme music. Big man power moves. Limited mobility with maximum hotdogging.
You could say...he has twice the arms you have. And he has half the brain that you do.
Is he one of the fighters? He looks like a monster!
This goro has a nice tan, maybe he's from the islands somewhere, huh?
"It's hard to give out while you are marking out" is probably the best quote from any OSW.
Great stuff as always, can't wait for the next MK film review
The boys will take a tough one for the team
"Well done Batman, Jack Napier has fallen into a vat of acid" LMAO
The industrial rock club vibe was alive and oozing in South Africa deep into the 2010's. Matrix Jackets, Du Hast and amphetamines baby!
G
Doors in JHB / Edenvale and Burn in Durban were my jam.
Du hast

If I could forget an entire RUclips series, I wouldn't choose you lads, just in case I never found you. Every episode is rewatchable af.
SO GOOD. It was an honor to be a part of this!
Also, that Guru Larry impression is SPOT ON.
Thank you my dude! So happy to get to work with ye guys. Can't wait for people to hear your Halloween Havoc song! 🎃
(35:12)
“Get down here!”
“Stay over there!”
“I’ll be there in a minute!”
V1’s got me in stitches with this quote and his angry cover of the nWo theme song. 🤣
And the added reverb on V1’s voice just made it even funnier! 😁🤣
@@MsCholmondley-Warner I know right lol
Fun fact: the henchmen in the red head wraps were originally meant to be tarkatans (Baraka and co), but they didn’t have it in the budget to make 100 of those costumes.
I had to recommend it brah!
A ton of love to the Mortal Kombat series, it has everything! From the amazing to the absolute trash. Got to love it!
Thank u for the support and the choice man! Nice to review a GOOD film and get to mark out 😆
This is beyond fantastic. The amount of nostalgia in this is so overwhelming I adore it. Being the big Mortal Kombat fan that I am, this is absolute perfection. I love all the massive attention to detail to the research, trivia and commentary. The jokes in this are god tier. This is class. You have outdone yourself Jay.
That opening theme was a pretty awesome version of it!
Cheers for the kind words mate 🙂 Very strokable
Cant wait for Annihilation
@@garyhammond7683 Me either!
15:38 - 15:47 Steven Seagal and his akido bollocks. lol
Bro that is the true power of ultra instinct
Has there ever been a better theme song for a movie?
I don't think so.
Thank you Shawn 😉
Wonder Woman’s theme in the Snyder Cut would like a word with you
@@tonydub98 No it wouldn’t.
I can remember renting this on vhs with my mom! I lost my shit when Scorpion and Cage fought. Looking back, she was such a good sport.
God bless her
@@EnriqueTortellini thanks brah! She was a huge Sting fan, and Steamboat!
I love that you guys did a review of this. It's legit one of my favorite movies for all the mark out moments. I saw it in theater in my 20s on opening day.
The guy who Liu Kang fought the first time was from a show called WMAC Masters. His name was Hakeem "The Machine" Austin.
"Nothin but ninja"
"Ninja, please" -V1
Brilliant as always. I hope OSW runs for 400 years.
OOC is destined to have a moan for the rest of eternity
I first saw this from the GamesMaster show (which is coming back this year), but the first time I played it was on the arcade at Flamingo Land. Never got to beat it, but we watched someone played through the entire game as Sub Zero, that's always been stuck in my mind seeing that ending.
Jay I love how you can just rattle off every Mortal Kombat move. It's honestly impressive.
And a bit concerning
He is the play by play guy
I was amazed at Steve's ability to alter his voice for Scorpion's lines "Stay over there! I'll be there in a minute!"
11:35 too funny man I can definitely see myself chilling with you guys and having a blast
My friends and I saw the first MK at the drive-in theater. It was a blast! Except for the mosquitos, but the concession stand nachos always made up for it.
"I'll be there in a minute!"
God that killed me.
Excellent review lads, 10/10
Bret Hart gives 5/10 says the matches could have been more technical, more story.
I give the movie 8/10, 10/10 soundtrack

Just started watching and already marking out for the intro. Damn good stuff lads!
FYI: The voice of Shao Khan at the end was the great Frank Welker. Kinda sounded like his Transformers G1 Soundwave voice.
More like Dr. Claw from Inspector Gadget 😅
@@DasKame Ahhh...I just listened to it again, I stand corrected. Thanks.
@@DasKame same voice actor either way. Welker is one of the most prolific voice actors.
@@monarched Soundwave and Dr Craw are also the same voice, just with Soundwave edited in post.
Just enough time to watch before work! Happy days are here again!
By the way kudos to you guys this is one of the best episodes you've ever done. You are everything that is pro wrestling super Nintendo and Sega Genesis
I still have my VHS of Mortal Kombat…. Somewhere :D
I watched this so many times and it’s amazing it’s “held up”? I mean I agree with you, it’s not great, but it’s good enough and doesn’t overstay it’s welcome! Great vid, good to have Maffew back too!
I think what gets me about this film is how Johnny, Sonya, and Kang look nothing like their respective characters but absolutely _feel_ like them.
Sean Connery as Raiden would have been so f'n hilarious!😂🤣
"I don't think shhho" 😄
One of you three bloody bashtards is gonna deshide the fate of the univershh. Harr harrr harrr harrr! Sharry
Long time subscriber, love when 2 videos drop in one day. Thank for all the hard work!!!
The whole family sat down and watched this morning Good watch lads!
Hope we didn't anything TOO embarrassing for ur family 😆
@@OSW oh no, don't worry we watch OSW videos all the time, my gf marked out to the Vince "unbelievable" montage when she first saw it
15:19 - Jimmy Bennétt has tuned in and roundhouse kicks some random knackers in celebration as "LIVE, LAUGH, LOVE AND SURVIVE" plays on repeat in the background
All of you guys have voices I enjoy listening too, it's wonderful. Keep talking
Absolutely amazing. Will never get enough of OSW, or OSW+Maffew
That theme song in the beginning was fire 🔥🔥🔥 great nostalgia 💯😀
It's not what we wanted at the time...but "The Spaghetti Incident?" is pretty awesome. Raw Power, Ain't It Fun, Human Being, Hair of the Dog, Black Leather, You Can't Put your Arms Around a Memory... Great stuff!
Love u guys... Alays make my day listening to u guys... Thx
This flew by, so good!
Ole one credit Jay.......lmao. This review was a blast. Thanks for starting off my Monday right!
V1 called Shang Tsung Shangers 🤣
This was absolutely phenomenal lads. Matthew appearance too! This was seriously one of your best movie reviews so far. I happen to love this film...more than I should despite all it's flaws, and as covered in the review, there are many. Absolutely agree with pretty much everything said in the film.
I did not know that Tom Cruise was offered Johnny Cage, or that he hung out on set. Banger score. All the remixes that were done from it...it's kind of iconic.
Looking forward to you guys shredding "Annihilation" if that is what you are planning on doing!
Another excellent video boys!
Mortal Kombat annihilation, it's gonna be EMOTIONAL!
I don't know why but it always warms my heart when RUclipsrs talk positively about other RUclipsrs I also like
Who were we hotdogging about brah?
@@OSW talking about the guru Larry bit
Oh right! He's a lovely dude, I'm on to him often enough, whenever we do some old English ppvs/shows we should have him on 🙂 been a fan of his since Wes & Larry on the telly!
@@OSW oh yes I'd love to see that! I completely lost it the moment Maff started talking about Larry's video cause I immediately remembered almost wetting my pants cause of Larry's boi stable bit when I saw his video.
I love this movie, regardless, I am excited for the next MK review, that's where the real fun is had.
CVX save room music was a nice touch...
This review was pure gold!
I hope you guys get Phelan to join in for the review of the sequel. He is as big of a mark for Mortal Kombat as you can get.
39:39 Fun Fact! There’s a before-the-fight interaction in Mortal Kombat X between Johnny and Tremor (Brown Earth Ninja) were Tremor reveals he’s a fan of Johnny Cage’s movies.
Whereas Cyrax hated Ninja Mime so much that he tried to beat up Cage to get a refund in Mortal Kombat Deadly Alliance.
I still have the soundtrack cd I got when it came out. What a great collection of pure 90's music with a pure 90's movie. Ah the memories…
"Get down here"
"Stay over there"
"I'll be there in a minute"
All with the echo. This got me. Hahaha.
I've watched this video 3 times now... I just LOVE it when people review this movie... lol
Just noticed that one of the fighters Shang summons in the final battle is Okamura/Baldy from Samurai Cop!
Woah! Good spot dude!
Yes, Gerald Okamura, else was fighters Rodney Mitchell- bald black skin warrior, Fumio Demura- samurai, Sidney S.Liufau- with stick. One fighter was in american show Fight Zone 1995 as Mozarr i dont know his name. And last warrior i dont know too(
The Bloodsport clip of Van Damme getting hit with freedom powder while talking about how he did a bunch coke on the set of Street Fighter - excellent work lads.

Was hoping you would have covered the guy playing sub-zero going on to join the WWF as a doctor. Splicey Beyond the Mat with him fixing up Mick Foley
Yeah everyone said he had magic hands. Not talking about ice magic in the film. Somehow he kept everyone going through his massages. Got them through injury. You could be thrown off a cage and wrestle the next night with this guy
Maybe "massage therapist" is innuendo for "has a big bag of drugs"
@@duffman18 Good to know his massages had a happy ending *V1 squeezy noise*
I thought Shao Kahn sounded like Dr Claw from inspector gadget. Great video, lads!
12:40 its amazing how this scene from the movie was so popular it made it into the games.
Not watched yet but just seeing this upload made me happy. Fuck yeah. Saving it for a rainy day…. Probably tomorrow 😂
Scorpion got that signed photo at the release of Cage’s film “Ninja Mime.” He was gonna show Johnny his huge Johnny Cage merch collection in pirate hell after their fight. Unfortunately, Scorpion exploded before he had the chance.

The musicians behind Mortal Kombat's iconic techno music credited themselves on the original MK soundtrack as The Immortals--- they were actually 2 founding members of the provocative and controversial techno/industrial dance band Lords of Acid.
Lords of Acid also did the music for the Reptile fight, it's an absolute banger.
One of my favorite movies growing up. excited to watch this
It’s such a blessing that you guys were able to review this movie. I still have my VHS copy of MK. Really stoked to watch you guys review MK Annihilation since it’s going to be bollocks lol. 😅
Also what’s the soundtrack in the beginning of the aftermath? It’s really good 👍🏼
Still have mine as well...
Its the Resident Evil Code Veronica save room theme.
@@mgloco88 thanks so much! I didn’t really keep up with the resident evil series so I had no idea lol.
you guys reviewed this like it was a wwf pay per view. it was so great.
I love that Trevor Goddard had a sh!t cockney accent, because his performance is what characterized Kano. Which is hilarious, because you have all these other actors trying to emulate this guy, who's entire performance was a botch
That’s what the pros call shooting yourself into a work.
I marked out way too much for the WMAC Masters reference.
Also, Journey Begins was a thing of beauty.
Just realizing that Liu Kang dispatching of every soul of Shang Tsung singlehandedly was basically Cena running through the Nexus
There was a big arcade in my hometown which had an entire floor for laser tag. All they did - is play 3 songs. One was the MK theme... whenever that hit, I'd start karate kicking people's guns from their hands. I'd get yelled at, "son, that's not how you play.' But like.... Mortal Kombat.
Surprised you guys didn't mention Sub Zero being played by Dr. François Petit who works with the WWE onscreen and off.
The doctor who ran in to help Mankind in HIAC? Holy shit
I think it was originally intended to be all real action stars in the first game, that's why Liu Kang is blatantly just Bruce Lee.
"I had Mortal Kombat on the Master System".
Me too! That console is such a boy!
I unironically love the first Mortal Kombat film. Annihilation is an all-time great bad movie, full of total madness.
31:18 Remember "KAI" from MK4?
No?
But this Dude reminded me of him
Gavin Rossdale - “Everything zen, everything zen!”
Raiden - “…I don’t think so.”
Super stoked that they mentioned that the Scorpion-Johnny Cage fight is soundtracked by the immortal “Zero Signal” by Fear Factory. The album it’s off, Demanufacture, is literally perfect.
“They call me One Credit Jay” 🤣🤣🤣
The soundtrack to both mortal kombat movies sparked my interest in music and made me the man i am today.
Man, I used to take martial art lessons at a gym in Chicago. The guy who did the mocap for Lui Kang ended up dating the mocap actor for Kitana. He was also in the Raphael suit in the live action TMNT movies.
Outstanding, as always. Did I detect Jimmy Bennet spliced in?
Bridgette Wilson was believable enough for me. Glad she did her own stunts.. we know it wasn't a body double bustin' out of that tank top. Robo babe then and now!
Always love to see the Geordie in the studio with you lads.
Great episode lads
Even Bridgette Wilson's Sonya Blade sounds better than Ronda Rousey's.
Not exactly a high mark to beat

Yeah, Ronda Rousey blows, dude. I wouldn’t be willing to defend her ass even if she WASN’T a transphobe.
