MK movie update/MK Legacy discussion

Re: MK movie update is apparently on the horizon

I wonder if Kratos is set to appear as a guest character. lol Ooo I feel the fire coming. :laugh:

In a movie? Nah
Kratos just randomly appearing in a movie wouldn't make any sense, unless it's a movie like Scream, which is a parody.
Appearing randomly in a game as DLC still doesn't make sense, but DLC and guest characters don't have to make sense.

Kevin just had dinner with Joss the director from avengers to get some tips for MK, isn't that freaking cool or what?

yeah that's pretty cool, it's nice to see people critique and share strategies to improve their movies.
 
Re: MK movie update is apparently on the horizon

Anyone else think they might reveal something around comicon? Just like a teaser image or something along those lines. I mean he has to start filming some what soon for a 2013 release right?

I think they were suppose to start in March
 
Re: MK movie update is apparently on the horizon

I think before they start the casting would have been announced somehow.
 
Re: MK movie update is apparently on the horizon

KT teased that Joss Whedon gave him advice on Action sequences for MK2013. Since that IS his brother in-law, he should milk him for more insight on has on story and character development as well....If that was my brother in-law, I know I'd do that.

Haha I hope so. Haven't seen any full length movie he's done considering they were musicals but I'll give him the credit that his fight scenes were decent so far and he's taking the project very seriously. I heard they were supposed to start around March too but that was just a rumor and we haven't even heard anything for casting some how.
 
Re: MK movie update is apparently on the horizon

Oh I hope they reveal the cast of the next MK movie. I also hope this movie wil be big as the Avengers but more bloodier like Hostel 2. ;-)

Like Hostel2? i was thinking more along the lines of Braindead/DeadAlive or Hobo with a Shotgun lol
 
Re: MK movie update is apparently on the horizon

Shouldn't the blood and gore be handled more in the same fashion of films such as "Apocalypto" or even "30 Days of Night"?
 
Re: MK movie update is apparently on the horizon

I'm calling it! ComiCon he'll reveal something. Just my guess lol

As far as gore goes, look at his original pitch trailer and that's pretty much what I'm expecting, although with a better budget.

"Oh I hope they reveal the cast of the next MK movie. I also hope this movie wil be big as the Avengers but more bloodier like Hostel 2."

I wouldn't expect it to be nearly as big as the avengers considering that movie cost over 200 milion. This movie will have a budget of around 30 to 60 million. Doesn't mean the fighting won't be badass though.

yeah doesnt alot of the budget go on advertising etc also? Suprised there doing an MK movie at all. I know theres been an Mk buzz again but nothing compared to the early 90's.

A movie about MK won't attract ONLY MK fans. Show enough cool fight scenes, and epic slogans. And you'll get random guys who never even played a video game in their life to go watch it.

Better yet, the blood and gore should be like "2001 Maniacs" with the martial arts action.

I have no doubts that if the movie actually ends up being decent and the trailers look good, it'll be successful. W.B. is gonna do everything they can to get their money's worth from the franchise so I'm sure it'll be marketed decently enough. Most people in their 20's or older most likely at least know what mortal kombat is due to it being popular in the 90's and thats what R rated movies are aiming for anyway. Look at Green Lantern for instance. How many people actually knew who he was other then comic book fans and that movie didn't do too bad despite that it also sucked.
