Mortal Kombat was one of the very first video games to get adapted into a Hollywood movie back in 1995 and along with movies like Super Mario Bros, Double Dragon and Street Fighter, set the tone for video game movies being… not so great. Now, 26 years later, Hollywood is ready to breathe new life into the franchise and take a shot at the popular game franchise.
2021’s Mortal Kombat definitely raises some questions. Like why are we following this made-up Cole Young guy when there are about a hundred existing characters to choose from? How deep does this dragon-mark champion concept go exactly? Why did Cole go back to his family after he specifically left them to keep them safe? How exactly is Lord Raiden allowed to intervene? If death is just another portal and all these characters can come back, did any of this even matter?
To answer all these questions and more, step inside the Pitch Meeting that led to Mortal Kombat! It’ll be super easy, barely an inconvenience.

@alchemystudiosink1894 Місяць тому
From what I've heard, they specifically avoided having Johnny Cage, cause having a new OC to replace the primary character of the series makes things "better" according to certain people who want to shove their OCs in various franchises. Which of course kinda makes the whole things bleh, especially since if I recall, Mortal Kombat wouldn't have happened without Johnny Cage, since the game was originally suppose to be a Jean-Claude Van Damme game with Johnny Cage originally suppose to be Jean-Claude Van Damme. But when the rights for that fell through, the repurposed things.

Being that Mortal Kombat is an established universe with lore that exists outside of the tournaments...we could literally have MK films that revolve around like...Shao Khan on his konquest of Outworld. Or maybe an invasion from another realm/world we haven't seen before. Like some kind of alien/monster world of eldritch terrors that basically forces some of our favourite heroes/villains to kooperate, to just SLAUGHTER the new threat and create a gore-filled movie (or series) where we actually get to cheer for our favourites performing iconic fatalities left/right and see them make more than just a single appearance before getting killed off (plus it gives the excuse to have the baddies actually pull off some kills/finishers without losing any "good guys" that Hollywood seems afraid to ever let die in an MK movie).
