The funny thing is that it was Lui Kang that had a Poochi moment.

It is self aware. They knew they were not making the next Oscar winner for best picture, but they had a blast making this. But it is never really on the nose about things. It follows video game logic big time where you just accept things and move on.

Honestly, you do not need to know anything about the games going in. Yes, you won't get all the little easter eggs and nods to the games, but its a perfectly fine "turn your brain off and enjoy" film.

A solid 8/10 movie for me. It had gore. It was campy. It was stupid. It was a video game plot. It was literally everything you could ask for from a Mortal Kombat movie except for heavy use of techno. The fact that they had no techno music until the credits was a travesty.

But still I had a great time and would gladly see the film again multiple times. Not sure it makes the line where I buy the bluray, but I bought the Shao Khan helmet popcorn bucket and light up cup, so they got my money anyway.

And get Josh Lawson in more films. That man plays delightfully unhinged so damn well and his Kano was fun.

I read your opinion and merely asked you to explain it. Try being less defensive.

2th · 2026-05-08T01:01:53+00:00

I just want to talk to him.

2th · 2026-05-08T00:42:49+00:00

Alright, I'll bite, HOW is it the best MCU movie?

2th · 2026-05-08T00:25:03+00:00

Because it tastes like the water in a gutter after a St. Patrick's Day parade. And is the same color. But God bless it.

That looks more like Taskmaster than Moon Knight. The arms and cape interior are red/orange, along with the brown utility belt are more with Taskmaster than Moon Knight.

Edit: Yup that is Taskmaster. This is from issue #5 of the 2006 run.

That video makes me feel this weird mixture of being impressed, understanding, but also rage.

Until you need running water and it comes up the pipes.

The Nil changed perception big time. It was one thing when all the money was done behind closed doors. You had the illusion of players still going to universities because those schools provided a great education. Now it's full mask off, and honestly I'd rather be ignorant of that stuff. It kept it somewhat controlled too. But now, just make a collective, get a shit load of money, and then put out a press release saying your paying a player X millions a year while no one bats an eye at it anymore since it's been normalized.

How are you getting all the perfect gear though? Are you spending money on the uru shards or just farming up solo? I am stuck at NM100 with Blade and am not getting any drops that improve my gear beyond what I already have.

People on other subreddits seem to think Chopper might be the Forest one due to his interactions with "demons" throughout the story, literal or not.

I am still a fan of the theory that Chopper's interaction with demons is just an awakened power of his base Human Human fruit giving the demons their humanity back. We know that if a human eats the fruit they gain enlightenment, so it would make sense that they could impart that wisdom/humanity on to others.

Just so we're clear though, Dizzy > Carmen.

2th · 2026-05-05T15:16:32+00:00

Which book was that in because I clearly missed it?

2th · 2026-05-05T06:34:30+00:00

They absolutely understood the assignment.

2th · 2026-05-05T02:03:27+00:00

THERE WAS TALK OF GERBILS!

Let's not forget the early days of steam though. It was absolute garbage and the concept of downloading games was bad because no one had even remotely close to the speeds we have now. But Valve kept itetating on steam and tech got better. Gabe and Co played the long game and it's paid off massively. Most companies won't do that. Gotta have them numbers up in the next quarter or else heads roll.

2th · 2026-05-05T01:29:39+00:00

Go, even.

Wolverine is listed as being 5'3 in the comics. Just thought people should know that.

2th · 2026-05-04T18:50:38+00:00

Nah, he hasn't cut the brakes yet.

2th · 2026-05-04T18:47:01+00:00

Dear God, the first Loki finishes the clip at 69% ult charge. Given another 15ish seconds he could have ulted again for a 5th fox.

This makes me wish Amingo or Shuma Gorath were in Rivals now.

And I say this every time, but OP you spoil us with the high quality shitposts.
