New Mortal Kombat Director Talks "Re-Envisioning"
Posted 5 months, 2 weeks ago by Veggie Jackson

In an interview that's sure to get the attention of the literally several remaining fans of the Mortal Kombat movie franchise, director "mink" (yeah, he's a grown-up and that's his name.  No capitals.  Cool.) spoke to Moviehole.com recently to discuss his vision for the relaunched series. 

Rather than continuing the paper-thin story established in the first two "films", mink will be "re-envisioning of the Mortal Kombat franchise from top to bottom."  He also stated that he would focus on trying to "capture the magic of the first film".  Unless he's trying to re-hire the ridiculously gorgeous Bridget Wilson as Sonya Blade, I'm not sure what magic he's talking about.  The interview also mentions that while IMDB is already listing Highlander legend Christopher Lambert as playing Raiden, casting has not actually begun for the project.  My suggestions: unknown Asian guy as Liu Kang, unknown white guy as Johnny Cage, unknown old guy as Raiden, and MikeyRaw196 as Goro.  Polish up those Oscar trophies now, folks.  I got a good feeling about this one!

The funny thing is they could do a good job with it if they want. Keep the characters, make the plot about a tournament people are forced to enter. Mortal Kombat is known for its characters, not plot.

Hopefully this re-envisioning will be better than the first vision we had of the movie....

What's with all these old actors? I thought Collegehumor.com was doing the "later years" videos.
