First trailer for " Mortal Kombat" (2021) has released!

Honestly still images didn't do it justice, I'm very much in love with what I'm seeing, CGI looks a bit hit or miss but the tone and look I'm really feeling. Might not be the best movie of the year but this trailer undoubtedly got me hyped!

Your thoughts?

Right out the gate they took my boy Jax’s arms

@doom_phd: had to do it to out boy lol

I'm not a huge Mortal Kombat fan, but this looks f-ing awesome.

So Kano obviously is going to do a double cross

I hope this is good. It looks fun

@doom_phd: Yeah not even trying to hide it. I guess casuals won't notice and diehards would see it coming a mile away

I don’t do too well with blood, and as a result, I’m feeling a tiny bit nauseous after the trailer. Lol

Nonetheless, it looks pretty good!

Not bad.

Anyone else think this Cole guy is actually Scorpion's son, Satoshi?

😶

....yeeeeeaaaa, this isn’t for me

I won’t lie something about Scorpion outfit looks force, I were to nitpick, I can’t put my finger on it. If I had to guess it’s the shoulder pads messing it up

Yo I’m a huge NRS fan. This is awesome.

I'm guessing that's Quan Chi posing as Sub-Zero when fighting Jax? Sub-Zero seems villainy so probably. Mileena looks wack, not big on Raidens design either but other then that looks good, action specifically.

Defiantly the "samurai" pads he's wearing, it's not as sleek as most would expect from him. I have a similar issue with it.

Looks awesome!

Nice.

Looks ok, also while I get Scorpion and Sub-Zero are popular characters. I don't get why the movies are suddenly revolving around them, first it was the animated one with Scorpion and now this one with Sub-Zero, with the actual Mortal Kombat Tournament being something more like a background.

Looks great.

That looked pretty good. Also, holy mother of anamorphic lenses. Those Panavision Ultra Vistas are serious beasts.

@wolfrazer: I don't think it's fair to say this movie focuses on Sub Zero and the tournament itself is in the back ground without seeing it. Especially as I feel like at best Sub is a key antagonist but no more important than the tournament which they spend the whole trailer hyping up and showing

Not bad. Some of the character designs aren't great but it looks promising

I'm so pumped for this, especially since it's R-rated.

It looks like it's going to have amazing fight scenes, with confirmed fatalities. Story-wise, it seems it will be more in line with the video games but with a few changes.

My boys Ermac, Johnny Cage, Noob Saibot, and Reptile didn't make it in? Just kidding, this is going to be freaking awesome. I have checked every day for the past two months for this trailer.

Looks good. I'm ok with Shang Tsung's actor.

Looks promising. I hopt it'll at least be better than the last live action Mortal Kombat movies.

@sirkaboom15: There were some shots of something like Reptile. Something camouflaged in a base shot and Kano ripped the heart out of a Reptilian creature.

Looks decent.

Mileena looks awful. Expected her to look like the MKX Mileena, because I actually liked that one. Half human and half Tarkatan mouth.

Sub-Zero and Scorpion going at each other was probably the best part of the trailer.

THIS IS GOING BE AWESOME!!!

SCORPION, GET OVER HERE BITCHES!!!!

For those still complaining about Mileenas mouth.

@ready_4_madness: oh yessss.

Looks amazing and love how these guys know how powerful MK characters are Sub flash freezing all over the place lol...

They look ripped straight out of the game.

MK will reign supreme again as best video game movie. Which is ironic since the original is still considered the best lol. If only it wasn't for the damn pandemic I'd love to see how this does at the box office compared to the first 2, but it's whatever....it'll still do very well anyway.

Who the heck is Cole? Hope it is good but honestly not a fan of introducing new character as main protagonist.

GOROOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Getting real late 2000's Dragon Ball Evolution, Dragon Wars, Transformers 1 vibes.

I'm thinking this will be badly written and directed, but the fight scenes look good and Hiroyuki Sanada was always my favourite casting choice for Scorpion, so I might just watch it for him. But honestly, his costume looks seriously subpar. It makes me think of an above average amateur cosplay. They should have used the MK11 design. He looks absolutely fantastic in that game.

EDIT:

Yep, I found a cosplay that looks better than the movie costume.

Maul Cosplay did an amazing job here. If only the movie version looked like this.

I'm sorry that frozen blood dagger is dorky as hell.

Only on comicvine

Looks alright. Will be watching

@cmpunk4life: So she will be looking like that. I see. Wonder why she wasn't in the trailer.

Also, forgot to mention, she doesn't look asian overall. Should've been an asian actress playing the role instead. So I am sorry, but this isn't Mileena for me.

Looks like a lot of fun. Definitely going to watch this

Where's Kitana? Or Johnny Cage for the matter?

@lenzo0: the Mileena Asian argument is a bit of a stretch since the Edenians as a whole have always been very inconsistent with what real world people they take after.

The OG Trilogy Kitana/Mileena looked Caucasian frankly. Mk 9 and 3D trilogy Edenians all looked more or less middle eastern to even black. X Kitana and Mileena both looked different but neither really asian imo

The only time Mileena seems to have been modeled after an Asian actress is 11 due to her model being modified of off mk 11 Kitana who brought in an Filipino actress for her face model. So in summary she's only looked asian in a game that didn't show her until after this film was already done filming.

Scorpion is looking so dope, I'm watching it based on him alone.

gonna see this day 1
