Mortal Kombat is woke now, which is ironic since the series rose to fame based on extreme violence. Same reason Jacqui (Jax's daughter from the future), was brought back despite her unpopularity in the franchise because she's a strong independent black female who needs no man. |

Mortal Kombat is owned by AT&T not Disney, they'll do whatever is popular at the time MK12 is likely 3 years away at the earliest so we can wait and see what the trend is by then. Ed Boon is just a yes man in the end and has to follow whatever he is told to do. Non sexualized MK isn't mortal kombat. I can see MK going back to its roots, let's see what direction the movie goes for and if it's successful MK12 will go that direction.
They definitely went overboard with the outfits for the women in this version though they're so covered up it doesn't even look like they can fight well, especially when you have Street Fighter doing the opposite having their characters with fanservice. Looks ridiculous on MK though because it's like taking blood out of a future MK game. I'm kind of glad Jacqui came back though I liked the Kombat Kids from MKX. |

You know who I would like to see joining the roster? Casey Jones from the 1990 movie. He sure can fight.

I would except I'm in no rush to see Elias get his entrails ripped out in realistic HD.

Seriously. We need to get away from this pretense that guys (or anyone, really) don't like looking at good-looking, under-dressed women. Of course we do. The "White Knight" stuff needs to stop. Especially when chicks get all the beefcake they want, but men looking at scantily-clad females is "toxic".

I actually like that Kitana is Asian now (at least in terms of look, in reality she's from Edenia), whereas she never looked like that in past games.
Also Sonya's new outfit fits her better than any of the old ones and Cassie is great. Jade also looks the best she ever did, don't care for the hood/muslim default outfit but the secondary one with her long hair is great. |
