For anyone that did not watch Mortal Kombat Annihilation, it was the worst time to spend 90 minutes. That is the reason for a revamp of the Mortal Kombat movie franchise. A release date is set for 2010, and is to be a darker theme version of the first Mortal Kombat. A couple of names being thrown out there is Mortal Kombat Devastation and just Mortal Kombat
If anyone did not see the first one it was basically based on Liu Kang avenging his brothers death by the hands of Shang Tsung. Add some lack luster story lines behind Cage and Sonya Blade and that is basically Mortal Kombat 1. Christoper Morrison aka. Mink is set to direct the piece and Sean Derek is on tap to write the screenplay. For those that do not know mink he is best known for directing the heavily criticized and very poor (in my opinion) “Into The Sun” with Steven Segal. But everyone deserves a second chance and if he does direct this let’s hope he leaves the 58 year old Segal out of it.
This article was just to get all you Mortal Kombat enthusiasts excited for the possibility of Liu Kang kicking some butt. There will be a lot more information coming very shortly so stay tuned.
