  4. “Mortal Kombat II”: Another Chosen One Inserts Fifty Cents

    Previously on Mortal Kombat: I'm not a deeply invested fan -- even "fan" might be an overstatement -- but I've dabbled in the franchise. Back in my fast-food management days, after closing time a friend and I would hang out at a local 24-hour grocery that had a Mortal Kombat II cabinet by the front doors. Their overnight crew ignored us while we virtually whaled on each other for a while. I learned the moves for Liu Kang and Jax, just barely enough to get by, but I was never a serious threat. Years later I saw the first live-action MK film on VHS -– Paul W.S. Anderson’s primitive directorial debut that should’ve been irredeemably terrible. It bunny-hopped over the low bar of "better than most direct-to-video martial-arts schlock" for its time. I may have even laughed once or twice at intentionally funny parts. Obviously one game plus one B-movie doesn't quite add up to MK geek-cred. I didn't bother with TV-commercial director Simon McQuoid's 2021 Mortal Kombat reboot in its COVID-era release. Reviews weren't encouraging, but audiences -- not at the American box office, but somewhere out there -- apparently plunked down just enough quarters to continue the game anyway. I would've ignored Mortal Kombat II just as hard if the trailers hadn't thrown in a new, confusing element that begged the question: what is Karl Urban doing in there? Curiosity got the best of me. I even prepped for the occasion by watching the last film (streaming on Max), mostly regretted it, and committed to letting the sequel pummel me on the big screen, for better or worse. Really, though: Karl Urban? Eomer? Billy Butcher? Skurge? Dr. McCoy? Judge Dredd? THAT Karl Urban? […]

  9. CW: how is a raiden like a writing desk

    They can both demolish Johnny Cage w/o even trying. #MortalKombat

  12. Modestia aparte, hace una semana ya se dejó caer aquí, en su casa y cada día la de más gente, lo que sucedió estos días pasados en la taquilla.

    -La única producción nacional que resistió fue La familia Benetón 2, y de carambola, en el puesto 9.

    ¡Catacroquet!

    Esto es una rareza, pues lo habitual es encontrar dos y tres cintas de producción estatal entre las más queridas por el público. Una rareza que se intuía ya la semana pasada.

    Confíemos en que siga siéndolo.

    -Por lo demás, el top 5 es continuista, como el mes de mayo está siéndolo.

    La única novedad es la entrada al 3 del reestreno de La comunidad del anillo, la primera película anillesca, que se mete en la hobbit faltriquera 307K (esta mierda ya hace para entrar al podio, la vida...).

    El resto sigue: Michael top 1 con 1.72M y El diablo viste de Prada 2 con un salto que se salda con casi 930K (casi un millón menos) para guardarse en el forrillo... del vestido, no me sean guarris.

    El 4 es para Super Mario, que dándose calimonazos contra los ladrillos saca 300K esta vez, y en el 5 resiste, y me sorprende para bien, una peli a la que le va a costar ser no ya taquillerilla sino rentable, Las ovejas detectives, casi superando a los de Nintendo, pues ganó 291K.

    -El sexto escalón se lo queda la apetecible cinta irlandesa de terror Hokum, con una estimación de alrededor de 100K, quizá menos.

    -Baja del tres al siete, ojo cuidado, aunque se veía venir, Mortal Kombat. Y mala entrada en el octavo lugar para Jugada maestra, el remake de Ocho sentencias de muerte con el soso de Glen Powell al frente.

    -Cierra La momia de Lee Cronin, cuyo recorrido también acaba ya como la semana pasada hicieron la peli de Segura y el drama espacial de Ryan Gosling.

    (Actualizo si veo algún datillo chupicalabaza.)

    Digo!

  15. Esses dias vi uma postagem sobre Mortal Kombat: Armageddon e, nossa, como eu adoro esse jogo.

    Na minha opinião, ele não tem um kombate bom, fatalities bons ou encerramentos bons, mas ele deveria ter povo!

    Apesar de todas as suas falhas, é um grande abraço no público casual, com o Konquest, Motor Kombat, criação de personagens e um elenco absurdamente grande.

    Eu prefiro jogar este do que o MK1 lotado de microtransações.

  16. Superhero movies may have dominated the last decade, but I think we’re starting to see video game adaptations take over in a real way.

    In this clip from Xbox Casuals, Josh Finney and I talk about how franchises like Mario, Mortal Kombat, Fallout, and The Last of Us are reshaping how Hollywood approaches gaming stories.
