Chindie Posted February 20, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted February 20, 2021 Three one thing that stood out, in a bad way, from the Mortal Kombat trailer, to me, also got picked up by a few YouTubers and Fight Game Community people. The delivery of 'GET OVER HERE'. That line is always, always, always delivered by Ed Boon. Regardless of who else is is playing Scorpion, regardless of whoever else is doing the dialogue for the character, Boon does that line. They need to dub that line with the true delivery. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s pretty grim at this point but very good so far. Might want to check out Johnny Mad Dog if you want something similar. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davkaus Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 The MK trailer is pretty good, I think I'll give it a go, it's just not the same without Johnny Cage though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Designer1 Posted February 20, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted February 20, 2021 Watched this last night. Very enjoyable stuff with a cracking couple of performances from Rosamund Pike and (the always superb) Diane Wiest. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No no no no no just leave it alone and think up something original FFS! (however if Simon Pegg had a cameo in which he was brutally slaughtered, I could go with it!)

(however if Simon Pegg had a cameo in which he was brutally slaughtered, I could go with it!) Not sure how they’re gonna go with it. I don’t know what the book is like, I understand that the arnie film is not really anything like the book. I love the original film, I do wonder whether more could have been done with satirising the tv show aspect of it, going into the audience’s thirst for blood, more stuff like “the running man board game” and so forth. However they do it, I’m convinced the most difficult aspect of the new film will be finding a replacement for Richard Dawson. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AVFC_Hitz Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 Most of these Nic Cage films are filmed at Boyana studios in Sofia. Sofia is a small city. There are some "interesting" stories I could tell. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MK has the problem that half of its cast is realistic and the other half is balls to the wall daft, with scorpion and sub zero on the daft half probably being the most interesting characters too Leaves them on a sticky wicket as to where to pitch it It looks to me like they've gone down the realistic serious route and it won't mix well, they'll try and put goro in the same world as sonya and it won't work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hogso Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 3 hours ago, Mark Albrighton said: Edgar Wright to direct a remake of “The Running Man”. To answer some concerns people may have about this, if they make a film of the novel, it'd be considerably different to the Arnie film. The novel is kinda grim, and gritty. There are aspects of that in the original film sure, but what I like about the film is all the OTT 80s stuff which isn't in the book. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah, one for the Piss You Off thread: never seen the original, but decided I'd read the book. Bought a copy, and like an idiot read the Stephen King introduction. Which contains a MASSIVE spoiler, describing exactly what happens at the end. Why do they do that? It went straight to a charity shop. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
