VIDEO: Episode 3 of Mortal Kombat: Legacy, starring Johnny Cage

The bad headlines is which the third monthly payment of the live-action, Mortal Kombat web series is only as delayed as the first two. Good headlines is which its still 20 times some-more enchanting due to the spotlighted character.

Perhaps Im biased, yet we found this weeks edition, starring Johnny Cage, flattering awesome

Bonus points for the cameo appearance by Mortal Kombat co-creator Ed Boon! But yeah, we unequivocally dug the action, the acting, the story, all of it, far some-more so than Spawn as well as Seven of Nines dual before outings. To be honest, if the rest of the episodes were to underline Cage exclusively, we would have 0 complaints.

The thing is, Im essentially the big air blower of the character. Sure we love Scorpion as well as Sub Zero as most as the next guy, plus we additionally dig those robo ninjas Cyrax as well as Secktor as well, yet theres something about the a really concept of the down as well as out film star enchanting in the little hold up or genocide fighting diversion tournament organized by ancient Gods which we found enchanting as the 15 year old. And we still do 20 years later!

To hype the new game, the large amount of trailers were commissioned, yet it was this the single starring you-know-who which cemented the idea in my mind of essentially picking the duplicate up.

I guess the single primary reason for my mindfulness with the impression other than the fact which he was absent in MK3 cuz he HAD BEEN KILLED (seriously, when was the final time the diversion impression failed to show up for the sequel since he had been murdered?) is how Johnny Cage was the central part of the games inception. Most are not wakeful of this, yet in the really beginning, Mortal Kombat was ostensible to be Jean-Claude Van Damme!

Ive listened different theories over the years; the single states which MKs creators longed for him to star in their game, yet when it was suggested which he was in negotiations with an additional ! associat ion (some theories it was Capcom), they had to change plans as well as change focus. Another is how he essentially began work upon the game, yet walked divided early upon for whatever reason (I hear his raging ego or an annoying agent played the part), as well as once the diversion became the pound hit, JCVD got all pissed as well as immediately had to get the square of the some-more remunerative than ever fighting diversion pie. Hence why he became part of the live-action Street Fighter movie, the part which he presumably lobbied hard for (I additionally listened Dolph Lundgren was ostensible to be cast originally, as well as maybe when he wasnt accessible or something, Van Damme eventually nabbed it).

In the end, JCVD was eventually digitized in to the playable form, despite for the rsther than crappy Street FIghter: The Movie: The Game
