It's no revelation that they'll have a female protagonist, EVERYTHING has female protagonists these days and they're acting like they're the first to do it.
It’s tiring. One would hope that at least a video game adaptation would stay truer to lore than that but nothing is save from feminism or lgbt nowadays. Goofy ass times
@@lordzhuge I get it....but I'm actually cool with Kitana being a lead because she has her own story. It's just weird that Lui Kang is being side lined in the same story.
Um yea lui kang dying has to be one of them he's Earth realms champion and gets killed ? They already degraded him in mk1 and made it all about a made up character Cole young ! Glad he gets killed in part 2 good riddance..
It only makes sense for Shao Kahn to be the villain since it's he who takes over Princess Kitanas realm. Plus, Shang Tsung just lost so he's now in search of a partner to help him take over, aka Quan Chi.
We will know more as time goes on, it seems like a lot of people who aren’t fans of MK and don’t know much about it don’t know what to say because they don’t really know the background and so they’re confused and so not a lot to say leaving us wondering and I’m sure once we know more we will be more excited!
Maybe They are building everything up for the main tournament and it will take multiple movies to showcase many characters maybe quan chi and shinnok which is why they are side lining lots of characters . Maybe
As someone who grew up with the MK games and mythology... these movies just make me sad. The 1st three games are a perfect roadmap for the trilogy. Uhg. If these leaks are true, I'll probably storm out of the theater, cursing and yelling with rage tears.
Maybe there will be a main character for different movies, like the future mortal Kombat movies could focus on different characters as they flow, assuming they are successful and keep making them which I do hope they are successful! I love Mortal Kombat, and same thing this the villains, Shang Taung could be getting side lined until he tries to overthrow Shou Kahn.
Maximizing. Feminist agendas are all demonic, unethical and gender discriminating because that lifestyle of extremist behavior has no place in society. Certainly, it does not belong in a popular video game sequel film like " Mortal Kombat 2". The film will suck and be worse than the first 2021 film if they have female kombatants taking over the film and zero but the male kombatant characters. That is not a real Mortal Kombat sequel film. It is a female over male controlled action- adventure film. The feminist and masculinity satanic agenda needs to be removed completely. You don't have rights that violate the laws of the Bible and American constitutional and civil right laws. What you have is anarchy and lawlessness. A world and system with rules that protect true rights of every US Citizen born here and immigrated here as well.
@@Refining1yea this one can with Kitana as the lead instead of Lui Kang. As if Cole Young being the lead instead wasnt bad enough. Even worse they kill Lui Kang ? Yea these clowns are really out of touch and are just exploiting the fact that the fan base will definitely watch the movie regardless. Killing off the strongest male characters and having kitana kill The strongest male villain. Yea feminist trash if this is all true. Only good thing I’ve heard is Cole getting killed early in the movie. Here I though it would be mostly about Noob and Shao
Maybe they really wanted to throw in revenant Liu Kang into the series but wanted to res him in the end of the 3rd movie to save them in the 4th... dumb lol. Cole getting smashed by Shao sounds satisfying, like a throwback to Annihilation as bad as it was. I was hoping to get another Liu vs Shang end fight, or 2nd end fight if Shao was going to fight, looks like this is an alternate timeline lol. Glad to hear you get to see him kill some things though, Im really exited to see a better live action version of Shao Kahn. Im guessing Sindel beats Sonya after she becomes evil, then they capture her like in MKII (the game).
It *could* be possible that he dies and is revived as a revenant, as was the case with MK9/X. They could be leaning into the NRS timelines, possibly. But again, this is a test screening, and a lot could change in the final edits.
Yeah, it sounds like they don't want to really go through the entire MK timeline and are just going to skip to the more modern stuff, which is understandable, but kinda sad still.
@@jg3000 Cole Young was mandated from a studio Exec who wanted to feel like he added something to the movie. The woke Director is the reason why we never got Cage in the first film.
the fight choreography is worst then annihilation at least annihilation had real martial artist and stuntmen who could properly take punches kicks and other attacks
@@ektran4205 lol fair... The first part of the movie with subzero and scorpion was pretty cool, but if the audience didn't know that was scorpion and subzero, that could have been the start to any material arts movie. I don't think the creators of the movie care about the fan base at all.
I don't know how much I can trust these leaks. Not to mention the fact that there might be several different versions of the movie. This one might not be what's going to be what happens in the official film. Studios do this on purpose to stop spoilers from leaking or sometimes just to test the waters before deciding which direction to go. One thing I would not be surprised is if Cole Young gets killed right off the bat. That would be "Excellent!"
Quan chi has no fight scenes movie sounds like crap already if he's just there but doesn't do anything then it doesn't make sense to have him in the movie
Heard Kanonis revived or reanimated and that he has a fight. I wonder what is role will be like, i assume a smaller role but hopefully still fun like last one! Also since he wasnt mentioned in your Deaths part, i hope he survives!
WHY NOT MAKE SHAO kAHN the main focus of the movie and johnny cage kitana then lui kang- i hope the movie is a martial arts one and not filled with a dictionary of talking...
Maybe it makes money and they reboot it immediately! You would almost certainly need a 3 hr first movie if rebooted and you revolve it around scorpion, subzero and Liu kang. Those are the big 3 when people think of mortal kombat and I’m including casuals
My biggest questions are, will Goro return to be the Tournament champion, will Shang Tsung be the main villain in the third film showcasing his shapeshifting abilities against Lui Kang, and will we see flash backs to King lao original defeating Goro then losing to Shang Tsung?
I feel they want to do the less important ark before the man one that is ok for me. Also I would argue that Radon is also the main character. There is some games that are all about him. I think it's more of a duo main character situation.
From what I read and this might be false news,but someone read some of script and from what they read they will have a ton of characters some are fan favorite such as kenshi,Tanya and smoke and a few other characters besides the ones that have already been named,a cameo by the great Kung Lao and goro will be in it and supposedly an epic fight in the rain by two well known characters will go at it and one other character will get decapitated but like I said this may be fake news but from all the characters name,they will probably be the 27 fights that will be in this but until a trailer is shown or if todd garner confirm it than it's probably fake news
I mean, as much as I love the UFC, and it would be great to have real fighters as Johnny, those guys are still too old for Johnny, plus I don't know if they can act. Glen Powell should have been Johnny imo.
i thinking copying the games story beat by story beat is a mistake. as long as they honor the world with care and respect it should be fine. as audience members we shouldnt go into a movie with ability to predict everything..also keep in mind Tsang sung and quan chi are both in the film...so they could have done some kind of manipulation to make you think lui kang died at a certain point in the film
Just stop they ruin these projects by constantly ignoring the source material. Cole's character also should have never existed. They could have just used Liu Kang. Just terrible
Yeah, obviously we're missing a lot of context, and things could change if they did reshoots, but it's still not a good look and a highly questionable decision, but I'm not super mad yet until we find out in the movie itself.
Liu kang dying can be changed since he is usually the main character, i can see jax dying and even cole dying which noone really liked him and he was just a madeup character thrown in mk,i can see shao kahn dying which if this movie gets a 3rd movie and i do mean if than quan chi and shinok would probably be the main villians for the 3rd and kung lao may be a revenant or shang tsung in disguise from what someone leaked from reading the script apparently kenshi,kuai liang,kintaro,tanya,skarlet will be in the film and 4 or 5 other fan favorites will be in this but its just rumors,and I've read a script awhile back but it was for the first movie and some of the characters in this one was suppose to be in the first one but i guess todd garner decided to put them in this one but these are just rumored characters we want know until its official from todd and maybe seeing the trailer
if Kitanna is gonna be the lead, then they better lean heavy on Shao Khan, Sindel, Outworld, Eternia, etc., and i hope Liu Kang has good chemistry and partnership with Kitanna. I never cared that much for Cage, so whether he nails the role or not i'm indifferent about it. i'd be okay if Shang Tsung is more of a side-character as long as Shao Khan is the main villain. Admittedly it is disappointing if Jax, Sonia, Raiden, etc get side-lined, but as long as the plot from movie 1 transitions smoothly into movie 2 and is explained well then i'd be content.
It would be so easy to make an amazing mortal kombat movie. You could even let a bunch of the main characters die in the sequel (like what apparently happens) and still bring them back. Revenants like scorpion and noob have always existed in the MK universe and it would be so easy to make the sequel the Deadly Alliance story. Probably not super popular with everyone but zombie liu kang was one of my favorite playable characters in armageddon? I think it was. Idk. Theres just so much amazing plot and awesome characters it shouldnt be possible to make a shitty MK movie.
I wouldn’t have cared if lui kang died if he was just the main character of the first one! Killing Cole Young right away makes the first one so pointless. I don’t want him to be scorpion in the 3rd (if they ever do make it).
Hell, I wouldn't have even been mad if Liu died as long as he was the main character of this second movie, but it truly feels like they just think he's another side character for some reason.
Liu Kang is the "main character" of the games. No reason he needs to be the lead for the movies, or any other MK story. In fact, I would go as far as to say that he's the least interesting character in Mortal Kombat, so hearing that the movie revolves around another character makes me more interested in watching.
It's no revelation that they'll have a female protagonist, EVERYTHING has female protagonists these days and they're acting like they're the first to do it.

The fact that liu kang is again giving a shaft is nothing less than an insulting
Oh this is more than a shaft Brother.....😂😂😂😂😂😂They most definitely dont respect the source material.
He the main fucking character
Lui kang is the main effing character of mortal kombat period
we also need to remember that this is a TEST SCREENING, so things can definitely change
Let's hope so let's really hope so
Um yea lui kang dying has to be one of them he's Earth realms champion and gets killed ? They already degraded him in mk1 and made it all about a made up character Cole young ! Glad he gets killed in part 2 good riddance..
@@edwinmercado90 Those seem like rumors for liu kang dying in the movie
@@BluWidow or maybe just his hopes
I’d rather just watch the MK1 story mode up until the last 2 chapters lol. NRS did a better job with a movie than Hollywood

Here after the reshoots ! I’m hopeful !
Begging your pardon, you said they made Jade unattractive? How is that even possible???
Ik you guys prob don’t like him but I personally like Cole tbh he’s kinda growing on me
The sequel sounds like a hybrid of the original MK2 movie ( where Kitana was a main ) with a Thanos and Gamora dynamic @ Shao Kahn and Kitana
We will know more as time goes on, it seems like a lot of people who aren’t fans of MK and don’t know much about it don’t know what to say because they don’t really know the background and so they’re confused and so not a lot to say leaving us wondering and I’m sure once we know more we will be more excited!

It will take the perfect trailer to get me back in the cinema for this. And I agree with you, I played MK1 on Sega.
Well, Shao Kahn kills her father. King Jerrod. So it only makes sense that the film will revolve around her
Maybe there will be a main character for different movies, like the future mortal Kombat movies could focus on different characters as they flow, assuming they are successful and keep making them which I do hope they are successful! I love Mortal Kombat, and same thing this the villains, Shang Taung could be getting side lined until he tries to overthrow Shou Kahn.
It can't be any worse than the 2021 movie.
No, they dont get it. Theyre not fans. They just hired an Australian director and actors because its cheap.
If they bring in noob sailboat but not Goro I'll be bummed out.
yep noob it s in the movie but saddly no goro
