Mortal Kombat Trailer

But is it for a game or a movie?

Re: Mortal Kombat Trailer

Has to be a movie...I can't imagine a game with a budget that large.

That was an awesome, awesome video by the way. Love how the characters have been reimagined.

Re: Mortal Kombat Trailer

I wanna say movie too but there is no MPAA indication and it looks to be plot-free. Oh wait...most video game movies are. Carry on. :p

Re: Mortal Kombat Trailer

This close to E3, has to be a game.

Re: Mortal Kombat Trailer

Badass!

Sad Johnny Cage is dead...

Re: Mortal Kombat Trailer

I want to say it is completely plausible to be a movie....let us not forget the two 90's Mortal Kombat films.

Harlequin babies give me the heebie-jeebies.

Looks like it's for a movie: http://chud.com/articles/articles/23...VIE/Page1.html

Re: Mortal Kombat Trailer

Definitely think it's for a movie.

Edit: Oh, Teuth actually posted that it was.

Re: Mortal Kombat Trailer

Apparently what this actually is, is a short film made by a director to get a studio to let him pursue this vision.

Bwammo!
That's what I thought it was before I even saw it when you were describing it to me.
I was like "In no way for a trailer/game would they kill a character off, it's probably nothing."

Aw man, I was totally all like that.
