Is another popular video game slated for another film adaptation? According to one of the stars of the first film, it appears so.
SGV Tribune spoke with Chris Casamassa, who portrayed Scorpion in the first
Mortal Kombat film, who revealed he's coming back for a third film.
It is quite possible this is happening, since Warner Bros.
recently purchased Midway Games, which created the original video game franchise, and the deal included the studio rights to such properties as
Mortal Kombat,
Spy Hunter,
Joust and many others.
Casamassa also revealed that filming was set to start in September. We'll be sure to keep you posted on any and all details regarding a third
Mortal Kombat film.

I think the one your referring to is the Great Kung Lao (ancestor of Kung Lao & Liu Kang) not Kung Lao.
Btw Newkill, stop quoting The Rock please, thanks lol.
I agree with this film needs a reboot, since the fact that Mortal Kombat Devastation has been in production hell for more than a decade says something about it.
I say they take the MK i wrote based on the Lin Kuei, well it is MK but the sub stories of the Lin Kuei work in as a sub plot. Man i need to type that stuff up again.
I also agree kinda on verge with chad's synopsis, but that would seem too cheesey if made like that it would ahve to be made in a serious and dark tone like visual and ual wise.
I like the idea of Mortal Kombat. There is really no way to bring it to the big screen without making it somewhat cheesy guys. Most of the characters are bad ass though. First, you have to think of a good plot (which would be extremely hard to do) since they don't really have a plot persay, more like guidelines win or die and go up the ranks. It's a tournament, not The Reader lol. It's all about cool characters with cool fighting moves, that's it.
The only way they could go from the 2nd film would be to go with Quan Chi and Shang Tsung killing Liu Kang like they did in whatever game (shit they have fucking way too many I can't remember lol) and have new characters play the good guys but still have Sub Zero's brother as a good guy, maybe have him fight Scorpion again but to the death this time, for the tournament. I want to see Scorpion fight a no named earth warrior and just destroy him lol. I want to see him use his harpoon on somebody like in a flash back scene of them telling about the past victories of netherworld or whatever it's called. They need Sub Zero, Scorpion, Reptile, Raiden, Qaun Chi, Jax, and make another descendant of Liu Kang/Kung Lao as the main character of the movie. At least it'd be fresh lol.
it's the last 15 mins of WOLVERINE. We had BARAKA aka DEADPOOL!
this is a horrible idea
I personally like the first movie but I can foresee, if done right (of course) that it could be better, only time will tell.
the 3rd film would be claimed to be Mortal Kombat: Devastation
Predator they leak melted metal and the don't have any flesh there robots in disguise.
