James Wan to Produce new MK movie

How are Scorpion and Sub-Zero being mindless henchmen in the original MK1 movie any different than Scorpion and Sub-Zero being mindless Quan Chi henchmen in the MK9 / MKX story mode (prior to Sonya freeing them)?
Same concept.
Possessed by a sorcerer.
It isn't any less dumb in the game.

I agree with a previous post. Should be dark and rated R like the game.

I'm thinking that that could well be a nod to the movie since the movie came first, it's almost the same in MKX just a different sorcerer though.

Noob Saibot and Scorpion although Quanchi's servants as wraiths aren't quite the same as Sub-Zero and Scorpion being slaves together in MKX.

I still to this day feel the original Mortal Kombat movie was a classic. Sure there's flaws but, I thought it was one of the best video game movie adaptions made.
 
all they need to do for a good mk movie is have good fight scenes, gore, good music, good sets with lighting and etc
also a huge plus would be having authentic design eg kotal being a 5 stories aztec giant, scorpion being a ninja flamethrower hellspawn with biceps bigger than his chest and etc
keep "immersive story line","hidden potential", "interesting dialogue", "good guys never lose", "couples and complicated relationships", "diverse characters", "feminism", "quotas" and etc in the trashbin, that's why all the latest mk additions on film were such a huge flop

hell if entire movie would be something like this, literally a few guys destroying each other over and over again:

i'd be more than satisfied

mk is all about punching teeth, breaking bones and ripping spines out
how hard is that?

Scott Adkins is a beast. I think if he were to be cast in a new Mk movie he probably make a cool Sub Zero (no pun intended)

For me it's not that much about those things as it is about mythology: Ancient China, sorcerers, Edenian legends, prophecies, different realms, different species, politics, alliances
 
I better not here " realistic realworld direction" i want my powers and mythology intact. I just want decent acting, sticking to the lore as much they can, bone crunching action like the raid 2. And fatalities which means R RATRD
