Mortal Kombat Gets Real?

Still get a kick out of this video.

Is this just a promo for the game or are they actually going to make a movie out of this?

MK is just one of those golden franchises from way back.
Whenever it returns you get fuzzy feelings inside.
And then it tears your heart/wallet out like a fatality.

I think its a movie, they wouldn't kill kill JC

I think I'm the only one saying it is a recap of historical events that happened in real life.

I friggin' want a movie of this. Do want!

Pretty wicked!

I kind of hope this is for a movie because I don't think a game could keep up this level of awesomeness.

ok so it's a ideea of a movie directed towards WB to make it they went to great lenght xD. read jeri ryan's tweets http://twitter.com/JeriLRyan

it IS for a movie.
imdb pretty much confirms it with its news posts.
 
wow that trailer was f**king kick ass!
awesome!
 
i think the previous mk movies were horrible and many parts are barely watchable, but that 7 minute trailer alone made up for all of it.
 
im pumped

This has to be a movie.  It does everything that screams "Movie", it has changed all the lore and modified it... and its got some cast members who are actual known actors.  Looks cool though, even if its not to the lore.

Okay, I tend to not swear but after watching this.... 
 
 
FUCKING WANT! WANT THIS NOW!

ewwwwwwwwwwww

Wow, that was very surprisingly awesome. Really liking the super dark, gritty theme of it all, it sort of reminds me of the Condemned series in atmosphere.

Movie or Game I don't care it looks awesome!!!

Calling it now! These guys as HD digitized sprites!
 
But yeah, I haven't been this interested in Mortal Kombat anything in ever.

Oh my GOD! Talk about unexpected epic surprise of the day! That was amazing!!!
 
So well produced, and I actually thought the fight scene was badass, very inventive and not at all what I expected from anything with Mortal Kombat plastered all over it.
 
Chick who played Seven Of Nine (name escapes me) in anything is always good news.
 
Either way, anything but a new game and this will be awesome news!

That Sub-Zero looks deranged, I'm excited to hear more about this at E3.

That is Black Dynamite playing Jax
 
 
Yes

As someone who doesn't care much for Mortal Kombat, I was still genuinely excited by that whatever it was.

Oh man, I hope this is a reboot and not another movie.

There is no way this is footage from a modern movie. When was the last time there was a fight seen as deliberate as that in a movie?   

This looks like a movie, not a video game. Then again, it's lookin pretty good, so hopefully it will be out by end of the year.

"  Everything accept the horrible retarded fight scene was pretty great.  Liked the design, costumes and style direction they are trying to achieve.  A surreal tournament reset inside a gritty true crime laced world.  That really breaths some humanity into their long time stale character profiles.  Hope its not a movie.  Since it would just be a ton of ridiculous Bourne inspired craptastic fighting.  All show and nothing real.  Like the Bourne movies or all the Bruce Lee crap.    Man that fight was retarded.  Its like watching the X-men movies and just waiting for wolverine to use his claws.  Fight shouldn't have lasted more then a few seconds.  Fitting that they fake killed Johnny Cage.  I always hated him.  Then his soul escaped at the last second.  Damn...  Bastard nut puncher will never die!  The chick who plays Sonya looked familiar. She has never done anything worth a damn, but I remember her from something.  She is looking really old and weathered.  That forehead was like watching Mel Gibson smile.  Bad choose of actor.  Should have gotten someone sexy and with a decent knowledge of how to deliver a line.  Without mouth breathing all over it.  The guy playing "Jacks" was badass.  Would like to see more of that guy.   Acting wise, he is definitely a strong lead role.   It seems like a game that will have live action cut scenes.  Keeping true to the MK style of using real life images.  Not a fan of fighting games, but I would take a look at this.  A little story can really go far.  "

looks great 

has to be a movie   but either one i cant wait! 

Baraka's fighting style seems to be derived from capoeira.
 
Clues are 3:30, 3:43, and 4:04.

Damn I think I just became interested in MK again, this is weird.

This, actually, looks, cool

So Seven of Nine was Sonya Blade all along...
 
I KNEW IT

Johnny Cage dies.

Oh my...

This is the best thing MK has put out in the past 15 years

That was pretty cool. whether its a game or a movie, I'll check it out. either way I would like a little more MK

all it's missing is
 
MORTALL KOMBAAATTT!!!!!!!!!!!

Movie openings for games are great if done well, and this one was.. Not sure if I'm gonna like this new subzero look though.

I have no clue what the fuck this is, either movie, game, or something else, but it's awesome

Please let this be a movie and not another boring-ass MK game.

Poor Johnny cage, they always kill his ass. 

Wow.....that was alot better then I was expecting it to be, I'd watch this if it was a movie
 
And some pretty disgusting stuff in that video

That was pretty amazing. I'm actually hoping that its a game with FMV cutscenes like this. That would explain hiring these actors and the high quality production.
