sign up and feel my wrath...you know you want to.
No! bad phage! That's not what I meant!
-
I am a Mortal Kombat man, myself.
-
I don't dig MK too much but I am excited about this new one thats coming out.
-
Man, if only someone'd get Marvel Vs Capcom 2 online...
-
I want a GC release of the Sega MK games...
-
I'm pretty sure you can get Midway Arcade Treasures 2 for the Gamecube, which includes Mortal Kombat 2 and 3. The collection was released for $19.99, so it should be at that or cheaper by now.
-
I'd rather have em all packed like the Sonic Mega Collection.
-
Give it time. I'm willing to bet that Mortal Kombat Armageddon will come out with a special edition containing all of the MK games...
-
I hope so. Plus a Lyn Mei calender. Hotness.
-
MK 1, 2 and 3 were supposed to be on it... but they took out the one MK game to put it in Deception, I recall.
As for Street Fighter.. I was just watching the movie the other night. Yes... it's Cheezy as hell, but compared to Mortal Kombat: Annihilation, it's freakin Citizen Kane.
-
Ha, ha. I was watching that about a month ago. Or at least I tried to. It definetely creams the steaming turd that is MK: Annihilation.
-
Oh and I forgot the saddest part. I went to the theather to see these when they first came out.
-
I saw both of MK movies in theatres and they totally fucking rocked! ...I did eat these weird mushrooms that grow out of cow shit on both occasions, maybe that had something to do with it.
-
I saw MK 1 and 2 in theatres. When I say MK1, the place was packed. When I say MK2, the second day of release there were THREE people in the theatre... including my brother, and myself.
What's really sad is that I own MK:A on DVD. :P
-
MK1 was decent. Why do you have MK 2 on DVD?
-
Because he's still in search of the person who told the movies "villains" to stand on a cliff, in a horizontal line and look "menacing" for five minutes as only SOME of them are introduced...
-
When they killed Johnny Cage in the first five minutes, that's when I knew it was over.
-
When Christopher Lambert decided to stay away from it, I knew it would be bad...
-
I got it because I have this strange thing where if I have the first DVD of something, I feel compelled to get the next one... especially when the first continues directly into the second one. One of the reasons I have Resident Evil Apocalypse as well.
Of course, I'll buy pretty much anything game related on DVD. I've even got Darkstalkers... the American version... on DVD.
-
Ouch. I'm sorry.
-
I also have a Sonic Underground DVD, Both Street Fighters, Both MegaMans, Seasons 3 and 4 of Reboot, Legend of Zelda: The Wand of Gamelon, Sonic The Movie, MegaMan Upon a Star... and on the VHS side, the lame Mortal Kombat animated movie and even an ep of MK: Defenders of the Realm.
The best thing though, would have to be my 2-tape set for the Unauthorized Pokemon Master stuff. A whopping 1.88 I got that one for. I've yet to open it, but I read that Ernie Hudson is on tape 2... and he's good in ANYTHING he's in, no matter how crappy it may be.
Here's a picture. I lost all the other shots on my computer, but this one was luckily uploaded to Photobucket.

Well get ready to buy another MK DVD. MK3 is in pre-peoduction as we speak. I hope they base it on Deadly Alliance. That was a damn good game.
-
Sezler's cooler than Morgan.
-
Agreed.
-
MK5 has been in production for the last 7 years. BEFORE Mortal Kombat: Conquest. I'm not going to hold my breath.
:P
Yeah... Adam Sessler actually has a surprising tendency to respond to my threads/posts on the G4 forums. He rarely ever posts, but around 1/2 of his posts are in response to something I've asked, which is odd, because I'm a complete moron.
Anyway... I run the unofficial X-Play episode guide and ratings database on the G4 forums. Something I created late TechTV era and have continually updated. Even though it's unofficial, it's been acknowledged by the staff and Matt Keil, who is not only one of the producers/writers/TechTV vets still on the show, but also a Transfan, said that the staff uses it for personal reference, since, apparently, after the demise TechTV, no one saved any records from the show.
So, just by coincidence, I posted about the 300th episode airing on the same day that they filmed it. They went out partying afterwards, I guess, not realizing that it was the 300th episode until I posted. So they sent me some G4 stuff, a thank you note, and the autographed photo above.
:P
-
Holy crap, "Batman and Robin". You're a completist no matter the cost!
-
In his defense though....it did come in the box set. It would be a lot more sad had he bought them all seperately.
-
Sezler's cooler than Morgan.
Setzler may be cooler, but Webb's better in bed.
Unless you like that hot buttsecks.
-
It was either get Batman and Batman Returns seperately for a total of $40, or get all 4 for $50. And Forever and Batman and Robin with an extra disc of crap each, I figured, was worth just about $2.50 per disc. Yes... Batman and Robin is among my top 5 crappiest films ever... but something compelled me to want to hear Joel's commentary, and maybe try to extract something out of the mind of the person who fuckd up the franchise.
And just when I was about to give him the benefit of the doubt, as he claims a lot of the crappiness from B&R originated with the studio and producers... he goes and says something like "Well, what do you expect... it's a comic book movie". Oh well.
BTW... the Batman Begins Collector's Edition Deluxe Set thing... sucked as well. Why did I spend an extra $10 on that pointless second disc again?
If you look close enough, you'll notice 2 versions of Back to the Future Trilogy there. I got the original Widescreen release that was inadequately cropped in parts 2 and 3, later recalled and re-released... and then, after finding out that the LBX version is cropped and not the other way around, I got the Full Frame version 2.5 years later.
-

Argh!
-
You know I want to believe Joel on that point...I loved Tigerland and Flatliners.
-
What about the perfection of the first two Batman films?
Tim Burton is just that damn good, though I am glad Johny Depp wasn't Batman <.<
-
Well Burton Exec. Produced Forever.....how do you explain that? He could have pulled the plug on Joel if he wanted, but didn't.
-
Forever was not as bad a Batman and Robin. For one thing, not as many ass-shots.
-
That is true.... I concede the point.
-
The second MK movie was pure-D shit. I only rented one video while I was in college, and that was why there never was a second.

Perfection? That only gives credence to the old adage that opinions are like assholes in that everybody has one and most of them stink.
Well, except mine.
-
Yeah buddy, "perfection"? Here's a moist towelette.
-

The first one was good, but cheezy. The second one was a bit too cheezy, it's like they thought it was the cheeziness that worked, and to a point it was. And from that point foward the cheeze was too much.
-
The cheeziness was what made it perfection, not to mention the lack of rubber nipples.
-
Just be happy we never got the Bat-Nads from the proposed 5th film, "Batman & Family".
-
MK1 was decent
Bridgette Wilson....:wub:
And last I heard, MK3:Domination was supposed to start filming last May with Lambert, Linden Ashby & Robin Shou. :unsure:
-
I think it is filming now.
-
Linden Ashby? They're bringing back Johnny Cage?
"Those were $500 sunglasses, asshole!"
-
:lol:
I may actually have to see it now.
Liu Kang: "Oh!" *gasp* [sits up in bed] I... I had the strangest dream!
Johnny Cage: [rolls over in bed] There, there.
Liu Kang: Johnny! You're alive! I thought you were dead. *sob!*
Johnny Cage: No, I'm fine. Everything's gonna be all right.
Raiden: [rolls over in bed] Yes, there, there, Liu Kang.
Liu Kang: Oh guys!
MK Announcer: FIGHT!
[cue theme music and orgy with bed-lightning]
No, wait, that's just my fanscript: Brokeback Kombat.
-
They've been saying the next MK movie has been in production since 1999. Trust me folks, it ain't happening. Just because little Timmy who contributed his "secret hollywood info" to IMDB.com, doesn't mean it's actually taking place.
:P

I'd rather see Liu wake up with a start, then go to the bathroom where he finds Johnny Cage in the shower doing his best Patrick Duffy.

I actually saw a inetview with one of the stunt guys that also played Scorpian in both the movies and he said that Katrina had pushed back the shooting schedule, but that the movie hadn't been scrapped yet and was still a go, but they where thinking of moving on-location shoots so as to now delay production further.
-
That's more progress than Watchmen. :angry: Only bit of casting I ever heard was John Cusack for Nite Owl.
