Episode 66: Mortal Kombat (2021)

Ahead of the release of the latest Mortal Kombat game dropping this week the crew, along with special guest host Finesse, decided to review the 2021 installment of Mortal Kombat! While the movie was a toss up there was a lot of potential within this film we wanted to discuss as well as our time in with the game. Also this week, ARE YOU READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL! The NFL season has kicked and everybody is claiming their teams and dressed out in their football gear! While we know the results at the top of the episode we won’t be dragging Jazz across the coals today! It’s been 24 years since the last theatrical release and ahead of the release the studios dropped a 7 minute clip of the introduction of the film and we debate of this was good or bad . We also decide who’s the better fighter between Bi-Han (Subzero) or Hanzo (Scorpion) and we discuss their changed background in the latest Mortal Kombat 1 and how we feel about that . In 2020 there’s an animated movie called “Scorpion’s Revenge” which follows Hanzo however in this iteration the story follows Cole… someone who’s never been in the game but created for the story of the movie and no one is feeling this change and we have a plethora of characters from the games who could’ve been leading characters. This episode gets off the rails so please listen with caution lol and of course WAS IT GOOD THOUGH?! Spoiler alert lol…
