A monk Kung Lao, an exiled guard Siro and a thief Taja who have to defend our earth realm from the forces of outworld. By fighting for their lives, by fighting for their honour and by fighting for their realm. In a tournament called Mortal Kombat.

In a dark and mythical re-telling of classic tale of good versus evil, the TV series "Mortal Kombat Conquest" follows the fierce warrior Kung Lao and his comrades Taja and Siro on their quest to protect the earth realm from falling under the control of the the evil conqueror of realms Shao Kahn, ruler of the Outworld. Vital to the survival of mankind are warriors who can compete in Mortal Kombat. While combatants from Outworld have magic and darkness on their side, fighters from the Earth Realm have only their strength, both physical and mental, and belief that their cause is just and right. Will good triumph over evil? In Mortal Kombat Conquest it will not.

In this rather silly prequel to the also rather silly MK movies, Kung Lao fights evil. We get to see him in his Game-look exacty once and that is only for a few minutes. That was a huge disappointment. After that you only saw him in this pyjama-look. Well, anyhow I watched the show nontheless. Mainly for these reasons.

It was MK and I was a MK fan
I loved the character of Kung Lao
A swiss guy played Siro. i wanted to see how bad he was, but then, compared to the rest he was rather good.
Kristanna Loken was Taja

Speking of Kristanna Loken. Did she ever actually fight? I mean, I remember her squealing running and last but not least not wearing too much, but I can't remember her fighting.

Other than that, I'd be happy to have a little discussion about these series here.

I have yet to see any of the movies (working on it ^-^, been wanting to for forever!) or this series...when was it on?

The movies. MKI was rather good, quite fun actually. But Part II isn't on IMDB's bottom 100 for nothing. There is no story whatsoever, the effects suck and they've changed half of the cast.

Then conquest, there was another Shang Tsung, plus a lot of women not wearing too much. The fight scenes were actually quite cool, but they messe with the characters a bit too much. I mean, what's up with Kung Lao wearing pyjamas?
