Awesome!!! Great find!

It makes me sentimental in some sort of way...

I remember back in the days the first MK movie was the best video-adaption game off its time. Let MK2021 be it again.

greetings from the Nether-lands

Very n-ice :)

I certainly still have my aprehensions, namely with Cole Young, no-Johnny-Cage and Mileena's mouth and seemingly small role. I'm very glad the reaction so far has been mostly very positive, though.

Reaction videos is just full of bad acting and/or exaggeration. Geez.

I'm only at odds with the story. As far as Mileena's mouth, don't worry you'll like it at least when you really see it. We've only been given a glimpse of it. The reshoots earlier this year in January had to do with correcting some technical issues and they could have changed anything as well when they did those reshoots so as far as Cage goes we won't know until we see it whether or not he's in or out of the film.

My concerns with the characters themselves are of course Cole and his daughter. The varying speculation he is someone other than just his character Cole Young is starting to become more annoying now than anything. The newest rumor I've heard is he's Kuai Liang. In honesty no matter how decent this story could be, if Cage is 100% absent from fighting who he did fight at the end of the Tournament according to Tobias' MKII comic then I don't know. For me it is still better as a tournament where certain fighters are invited to compete. In a twist it is a fight for Earth's survival.

My thoughts on Bi Han being a main villain I'm completely fine with. Technically if you look at it, if it wasn't for Bi Han, Shinnok would still be trapped in the Netherrealm and the Mortal Kombat tournament would not be what we know it is today. His attire in the film is okay. It is a little like the armor looking Sub-Zero MK11 attire we got as DLC and I thought it looked more like Bi Han than Kuai Liang too. Sad we only got glimpses of Kabal, Reiko and Reptile in the trailer. Right now I'm not sold on it.

100% these "fan reactions" are bad acting or exaggerated. Not to mention almost all of them are by pro vloggers.

I've smelled fish since the first Rebirth video. Fan reaction was strangely huge then and even weirder when Legacy dropped on Machima (are they even still around? What about On the Blast guys?)

The fan reaction has been positive on Twitter and IG. But THIS positive? Mortal Kombat, the IP Warner Bros. has backshelved since they acquired it and re-release the same 1080p transfer disc of the first 2 movies every couple years (they did give us Conquesg on DVD) has suddenly beaten an actual DC trailer? And Dead Pool and IT (all WB properties if I recall)?

Add to the fact the caption in the YouTube video credits all the reactors by using the word "participating..." yea I smell something fishy here.

Nog to mention there is not one official 4K trailer of the movie, even in HBO Max....

What does that mean?

Supposed to say "Not to mention there is not one official 4K trailer of the movie, even on HBO Max...."

I'm suggesting Warner Bros. banked this movie to not be very successful and with the recent Bluray listing suggesting only a Bluray release a lack of a 4K trailer suggests that.

On the bright side, Tom and Jerry was released today in HDR so there is hope. But movies not released in 4K is the equivalent nowadays of straight-to-video.

My question is how do the original creators think of this? I'm sure they had to at least read the script so my thoughts are what are their thoughts and opinions and have they said anything in regards to the film or been mostly silent? Anyone know?

....................and WTF was Sub-Zero doing in Brasil?

That's upscaled 4K. Warner Bros. has not released a 4K trailer. I did not see HDR popup on my screen when I played it on HBOMax on my 4K HDR TV.

As for what Ed Boon thinks, I posted about in another topic.

I wondered that too. We may never know.

Chillin'?

Ka-Tra

We havent seen the movie yet... :)

Those people are just in for the views, half of them probably dont even care about this movie.. :)

Are you sure?

Killing Eddie Gordo..

After killing Eddie..

Peace my MK brothers :)

Yes. If a movie doesn't get a 4K UHD disc then the studio sees the investment in that film equivalent to straight-to-video because of the high costs of 4K production.

"people" (trolls who are self important) calliing the over-reactions fake or paid actors ... i'm sorry you lead such sad lives

Just because you are realising that outside of your echo chamber and fish bowl that 99% of MK fans are looking forward to the movie.

Especially some people who were leaking inside info which has now been proven false.. yet they remain siilent on tthis. Maybe watch some of these people's other videos.. a) they often over extenuate their response, and b) they are mk diehards unlike some trolls on here.
