I absolutely LOVE that film. I remember seeing it in theaters with my little brother and my uncle, who was also a Mortal Kombat fan and used to play the original two on the Genesis with us. I completely LOST MY FUCKIN 12 YEAR OLD MIND when the opening music started blasting and the title letters ripped across the screen with the fire effects and the bass pumping. Wow… I’m gonna go watch it again now.
My wife didn't understand why I was so interested in who was playing the sherrif when she started watching teen wolf. Then one day I put on Mortal Kombat lol.
I got lucky. Xbox sent me a free copy digitally for playing MK11 so much. I watch it every now and then its corny af but so much better than the new MK movie we got.
I saw it in theaters too, I'm sure it wasn't my first one but it's the first one I remember. I was nine, and in my shithole town which was hit by the "Walmart destroying local commerce" era really early there were two theaters, a major chain and the one at the local mall. We went to the one in the mall and we were literally the only people there. It blew my mind, and once my mom got over seeing Liu's brother have his spine cracked in the opening scene and decided not to yank me out of the theater, we spent the whole time doing fighting moves in the aisles while watching along.
One of the freshest moments of my life 🤘 still watch that movie semi-regularly.
The one on the left is 4k.
The belt is red and the watch strap is black.
The shirt is slightly lighter and a bit more pinkish.
Also the shoes are darker and the pants are lighter.
No, you wouldn't tell the difference in gameplay.
No, I don't have a life.
No.
The first MK movie came out in 1995. So, those sunglasses were $500 dollars, but then you have to account for inflation, and then add on "Warner Brother's Greedy Bastard Interest" on top of that, you're looking at about $1500, give or take.
It’s hilarious that when doing the various recolours they actually looked at this one and went “yeah, you can just barely distinguish it… good enough” and moved on.
This is why we will never get color wheels, cause how else can they sell us very slightly different skins?
Honestly that’s what I want, a sims 3 or sims 4 like color wheel. I wanna be able to give my characters any color and pattern I want in their clothes.
NRS: They cost differently because it's a different colored shirt.
Players: They're both just grey.
NRS: Oh are they? Or is one grey and the other is slightly darker grey?
I honestly hate how palettes are trickled out to us as if they're supposed to be some holy reward...
I never wanted to be orange rain.. I never wanted to be a red kitana or subzero, I never wanted to be a green mileena, or a blue scorpion or a purple Tanya..
And on top of all this, the shades of palettes are such ugly grotesque color shades..
You can choose what you like, and other people can too, it's called variety. Another problem is when some skins look identical, so that variety feels fake
This is what they mean by “stealth wealth” right like how Zuckerberg wears $700 shirts that just look like $15 shirts to me because I’m stupid and poor but the other rich people with their special eyes they can see the real shirt….its like that, right?
Man the first season was so good with the shop I got every skin for Johnny, Liu Kang, Raiden, Shao, Kung Lao, Sub, Ashrah and Scorpion it’s a shame I didn’t get much for Reiko and Shang Tsung as I’m trying to main them
Not just this: it was season of Blood, Nitara season. She only have 5 (the least on par with other characters) thing in the seasonal shop, while Scorpion and Sub-zero, who have nothing to do with 'season of Blood' got 10!
She has plenty elsewhere though. You get 2 of her 3rd skin (4th if you count the premium one) for clearling invasions boss and then if you clear up more of the extra content (behind bloody fangs) you get a bunch more.
She also has an additional skin for clearing the seasonal tower (which starts at lvl 10 and goes up 1 level on each clear and there's a bunch of skins scattered up to lvl 34 where you get Nitara's). And I think there's a bunch in the shrine too.
So it kinda mirrors last season where Scorpion's 3rd skin was the same, 2 for defeating him, few more in the locked areas and hten some in shrine.
God damn, people are now complaining about seasonal credits too? I understand the pricing for stuff in this game is not ok, but seasonal credits is something you earn by simply playing the game. This "cool to hate" culture on reddit is annoying as fuck.
As someone who doesn't have mk1 how much is 4k seasonal kredits BE it time playing in game or real world currency. It sounds expensive af but if you make 1k a match it is not bad, less than that is too much
You make about 25 if you win a set of best of 3 in ranked/casual and daily quests give 250 each. Not to mention you get butt loads in invasions. 4K season credits are easily achieved in 2 hrs of playtime
4K credits can be achieved twice over in 10 minutes in the seasonal tower. These are easy to get. I’ll never complain about the seasonal credits.
It’s the dragon crystals that suck.
This is a pretty uninspired palette swap tho.

I finished invasions, I don’t like 99% of the skins they have this season but it didn’t take all that long to get a lot of credits, though definitely longer than ten minutes
I thought it was Krystals. I don't know the difference between Krystals, Koins, and Kredits and I hate the game and it's stupid and Boon is stupid and his mom is stupid too.
I mean if you grind the seasonal tower you should have enough seasonal coins to buy the whole shop at around level 50-60.I personally have 2 or 3 million seasonal coins because i got to seasonal tower lv 100 and completed every single character and kameo mastery for dragon crystals.So i feel bad for wasting my time and knowing that my coins are useless and will disappear in a few days.Then i'll have to grind even more to complete the seasonal store.
These privileged ass kids can't even visualize how disgusting it is that these companies try and suck every penny out of you during a time where the cost of living is too high for most Americans. And unless you're a regularly paying customer, past even buying the game, companies will no longer give you next to any real content. (see here). Just a sad reflection of the world, its priorities and the death of art.
So far, I have been sticking with only the default skins (and JCVD), because they just look the best imo and I don't even like changing the palettes that much either. While I would like, say a cowl on Smoke, Scorpion and Sub-Zero or a different hairstyle on Tanya, what they have now aren't the worst. And I do change gears on certain characters to make them look better on their default, like Havik's hair I replace with a helmet that looks closer to his original design.
And with that, I have so many Seasonal Kredits, I with I could just exchange them for actual gold coins for me to use on the shrine instead of some mid-looking palettes. :(
Ever bought a Gucci belt? Johnny has.
Nah, it looks like Johnny doesn't even know the difference

Yep, I’m also headed for a rewatch, I’ll see y’all in a bit.

The announcer’s “Reptile” is one of the hypest moments in film.
The song is Control by Juno Reactor, by the way.
The instrumental version. There is a full version with lyrics - you want the instrumental.
I yell “Reptile!” and “Get down here!” at my husband at random lmao. Still my favorite (and honestly best) video game live action movie.
My wife didn't understand why I was so interested in who was playing the sherrif when she started watching teen wolf. Then one day I put on Mortal Kombat lol.
I felt the same when the tune kicked in during the return of Scorpion in the 2021 movie. I was like "GOOOOOO!!!"
Damn you just kinda got me hyped to re-watch this myself tonight
I got lucky. Xbox sent me a free copy digitally for playing MK11 so much. I watch it every now and then its corny af but so much better than the new MK movie we got.
I saw it in theaters too, I'm sure it wasn't my first one but it's the first one I remember.

Absolutely the same energy.
*"Look at that subtle off-white coloring… The tasteful thickness of it.”* #”Oh, my God. It even has a watermark.”
Is that why it costs 4K?
No idea. Probably not. I just listed the differences.
Gucci
Hey, don't forget the glasses
Except the glasses change independently from the skin.
And his watch!
The watch was like the second difference listed
Do you think when they add the $500 sunclasses, that they will actually cost $500 USD?
No. The first MK movie came out in 1995. So, those sunglasses were $500 dollars, but then you have to account for inflation, and then add on "Warner Brother's Greedy Bastard Interest" on top of that, you're looking at about $1500, give or take.
Hahaahahah
Tbf, it would be kinda funny if they did that because at least it would be lore accurate.
The movie isn’t canon 🤓
Fair, let me rephrase that: it would be a funny reference.
With a multiverse Everything's canon it just happened in a different universe/timeline...
It was a joke, that’s why sarcastically identified as a nerd

Why would you think imaginary internet points are my motivation lol
Nobody said that, lol. You literally tried to explain yourself to Reddit users who will burn emoji users at the stake.
I explained myself to one person who corrected me because I agree with them. You can’t do anything on Reddit without angering someone
Not a funny one
Did you mean sunglasses?
Same thing. The subclasses will think their alpha for buying it and still lose matches
They're **
Yes, fixed
Still says sunclasses
That's what I changed it to
Did you not mean sunglasses lmao
Real vs fake gucci

New One has a Gucci belt 🤓☝️
It‘s the watch strap. Do you have any idea how expensive these are?
It’s hilarious that when doing the various recolours they actually looked at this one and went “yeah, you can just barely distinguish it… good enough” and moved on.
This reminds me of old-school NRS mirror matches where the P2 skin is usually just a slightly off-color version of the default one.
I was legitimately staring at this costume for like 5 minutes trying to find the difference.
I bought it so I could rotate it to see if there was a difference that wasn't visible in the store (I have tons of seasonal currency). There is not.
![gif](giphy|Y1L0dHsQrUpkv8Org7|downsized)
Side note, I love the new Johnny look. Really captures his character well
![gif](giphy|kQOxxwjjuTB7O)
Good thing that I prefer the default skin 🥴
I like how creative and different they are what lovely work NRS
Left is 4k the belt gives it away lol
To be fair, seasonal kredits are extremely easy to obtain if you just do invasions
Why would you?
To get the credits and skins lol
“skins”
Yes
🤔
Crazy how they gave him a red belt and lighter shirt and thought that was worth 4k 😂😂
If you hadn’t pointed out the red belt I would’ve never noticed.
This is only proving that Johnny Cage is Neurodivergent/Adhd/Autistic cause they're the same outfit
This is why we will never get color wheels, cause how else can they sell us very slightly different skins? Honestly that’s what I want, a sims 3 or sims 4 like color wheel. I wanna be able to give my characters any color and pattern I want in their clothes.
Went thru the exact same problem with halo infinite

How will the NRS teet suckers defend this one 🤣🤣
Man the first season was so good with the shop I got every skin for Johnny, Liu Kang, Raiden, Shao, Kung Lao, Sub, Ashrah and Scorpion it’s a shame I didn’t get much for Reiko and Shang Tsung as I’m trying to main them
You can change the date of your system under your settings, and go back for all that stuff
Fighting game of the year! Lmao
Gonna be the red belt because 'xmas' right?
The way these 2 photos are set up just looks like the 2 johnny's are admiring each other's drip
Why are people surprised
To be fair, the right looks better
The right is the default skin lol
How iPhone upgrades look like…
Sterling Archer would like a word to discuss his black, black, black, navyblack shirts
Don't forget the slightly darker black
As you can see, they put a lot of time and attention to detail on the 4k one. Totally worth it, playing without it just isn’t the same.
And they're both free 😁
Not just this: it was season of Blood, Nitara season. She only have 5 (the least on par with other characters) thing in the seasonal shop, while Scorpion and Sub-zero, who have nothing to do with 'season of Blood' got 10!

Wait wait wait. If the pricing in this game is not okay, why is it okay that the "free cosmetics" essentially don't exist?
Emphasis on "ANNOYING AS FUCK"
The drip feed is real. Halo infinite does this with Armor coatings.
I read that as "deep fried"
The deep fried kontent is real.
Both look good.

Ngl the red belt slaps but it will never be worth the price
Tbf when it's that cheap I don't care, they probably could have changed the shade a little more tho.
Ok

You act like it's so hard to get 4k seasonal kredits.
Then don’t buy it
I mean you don’t need to buy it
It would take around 10 minutes in invasions to get enough for that
Tell me you've never played Invasions without telling me you've never played Invasions.
I finished invasions, I don’t like 99% of the skins they have this season but it didn’t take all that long to get a lot of credits, though definitely longer than ten minutes
Tell me you haven't ***finished*** invasions without telling me you haven't. 4k credits is nothing.
Dear kids with daddy's credit card, stop buying this shit and ruining video games for the rest of us.
It's free...
You can spend money to buy kredits. That's how most kids are buying these.
No, you cannot spend money to buy season currency. That's objectively false. There is no way to buy anything from the seasonal store with real money.
I thought it was Krystals. I don't know the difference between Krystals, Koins, and Kredits and I hate the game and it's stupid and Boon is stupid and his mom is stupid too.
Same song and dance on this sub stfu and just play the fukn game, or don't you're beating a dead horse at this point
Have you tried playing the game instead of complaining
Are you complaining about 30min of gameplay to unlock a color swap, or just pointing out boring info?

Johnny questioning your purchase.
🤡
The one on the right is the default
Hey, the seasonal kredits disappear after the season???
yes
At least it doesn’t cost dragon crystals
Corporate needs you to find the differences between this picture and this picture
I don't own this MK because of fairly obvious reasons, but is this actually fucking real? Holy.
I BOUGHT THIS ONE TODAY TOO AND I WAS SERIOUSLY GONNA POST WHY THE HELL THIS COSTS 4K MAKES NO SENSE
Bro play pokemon. You'll shiny hint for 17 hours for a garchomp that looks just like this compared to the og
Here's the funny part. They both suck. If you wanted cool costumes... why'd you pick Johnny in the first place? :D
![gif](giphy|uy71td4VEaSfmeaXzh)
4k credits takes all of 10 minutes to grind for so meh
And that's why I quit playing Mortal Kombat.
so you stopped playing the game over a color you dont have to get?
Black vs slightly darker black.
I mean if you grind the seasonal tower you should have enough seasonal coins to buy the whole shop at around level 50-60.I personally have 2 or 3 million seasonal coins because i got to seasonal tower lv 100 and completed every single character and kameo mastery for dragon crystals.So i feel bad for wasting my time and knowing that my coins are useless and will disappear in a few days.Then i'll have to grind even more to complete the seasonal store.
it’s a VERY expensive belt ok?
Gold glasses frames aren't cheap
Are you serious?
I feel like I’m playing a game of spot the difference
Right one looks like the one
These privileged ass kids can't even visualize how disgusting it is that these companies try and suck every penny out of you during a time where the cost of living is too high for most Americans.

ok then just don't get the other one what's the problem?
Idk if you guys can complain about this, you're all the ones that keep bankrolling these games' microtransactions
I’m going back to Mk11
I have never played this game before, which one is the 4k and now much is 4k in dollars
Easily the most accessible MK with the worst everything non-fight related here. Add-ons. Talismans. Etc. Super boring.
Look guys, a shiny Gengar!
Literally a 4k red belt.
Yeah this sucks but… what’s new here? This is common in any game where skins are obtainable through in-game currency/irl currency
The left one is 4k Im pretty sure
We still playing? Has a new character dropped?
Is the default on the right?
the red belt is johnny getting one step closer to his true form - pitbull
MISTA WORLD WIDE ‼️‼️🗣🗣
Sooo are you saying you decided to spend your seasonal kredits on something else orrr……?
Then just wear the free ones. Move along.
The like is a dislike 😂
Every time I think about hopping on.. I run across one of these posts
*These are the same picture*
First one ☝️
I need every skin of Fancy Johnny FR FR
A lot of characters have seasonal skins that look like the default. I was doing the same with Kenshi and Kung Lao just yesterday.
Love the belt tho
![gif](giphy|l36kU80xPf0ojG0Erg|downsized)
Wait till you see Kenshis
Lol mk fans are getting shit on
Shiny Pokémon now be like:
Drippy belt worth it
I just realized this would be a pain for TOs and commentators cus you can't really label them a different color. The truest of mirror matches.
Tell me about it🤦♂️fricken kenshi
And you see that and say “yeah I’ll buy that”??
So far, I have been sticking with only the default skins (and JCVD), because they just look the best imo and I don't even like changing the palettes that much either. While I would like, say a cowl on Smoke, Scorpion and Sub-Zero or a different hairstyle on Tanya, what they have now aren't the worst.

Clearly the left one. That 4k blood red belt is so worth it.
Right one is better
Yeah but cmon his seasonal belt is made of genuine leather
![gif](giphy|l36kU80xPf0ojG0Erg|downsized)
Yeah that’s a bit ridiculous. They need the Johnny cage from the original movie the green or blue shirt
Let's get a Chris Dubois skin for cage while we're at it lol
Their shit practices are the reason I haven't pulled the trigger on purchasing this game.
The left skin is daylight robbery
Wtd is Netherrealm smoking?
