Mortal Kombat 2 had us laughing, nitpicking, and genuinely impressed, sometimes in the same breath. We break down why the sequel feels more satisfying for fighting game fans: the fight choreography is sharper, the action is staged like a real tournament, and the movie finally leans into the rhythm that makes Mortal Kombat work as a franchise.
We also go deep on the stuff that always sparks arguments, the lore. Timeline resets, reboots, and the point where Mortal Kombat stories start to feel like homework come up fast, and we try to pin down what a movie adaptation should borrow from the games versus what it should simplify. Along the way we talk iconic finishing moves like fatalities, friendships, animalities, and even the kind of meta jokes that only a long-running series can pull off without breaking its own vibe.
Then the hangout energy takes over. We debate character portrayals, who got done dirty, and what Mortal Kombat 3 needs to bring in next, from cyber ninjas to fan-favorite heavy hitters. Somehow that turns into a fighting game draft where we build six-character teams across the genre, and a Resident Evil side quest about remakes, DLC, and why game movies keep splitting audiences down the middle.

Welcome And First Impressions
SPEAKER_07Welcome to the Mortal Kombat Review. Presented by Nightfalls Veil. Alright, switch it up a little bit there. Ah! And we have our special guest.
SPEAKER_01He's a little horse right now, but he's here.
SPEAKER_05I wish it was just because of the movie, but no, it's because he was working the night before.
SPEAKER_10No, he was finished before the movie.
SPEAKER_05I didn't notice before the movie.
SPEAKER_04Context. Context. Horse voice and finished leaves lots to people's imagination. They like that motherfucker. Okay, grandma.
SPEAKER_08Finally sober. Sober run.
SPEAKER_01Good start. Good start. Good start. Oh, this should be fun. English is hard. This will be fun.
SPEAKER_11Damn right it is. That's my spoken roster world.
SPEAKER_01Mortal Kombat Two Thoughts. I thought it was a very entertaining, fun movie. I think it was an improvement on the first one, even though I didn't even hate the first one. Dude, the Martino Bag. That was awesome. I much prefer the choreography in this one. Well, they actually was shaped up like a tournament, too. The first one really wasn't. It was a bunch of random ass fucking fights.
SPEAKER_05No, they j would you say that they kind of reversed the storyline where they were invaded first instead of having the tournament after.
SPEAKER_08No. They had the tournament. The story of the first one, like they fucked up.
SPEAKER_06Yeah. Usually they invade after the tournament. Yes.
SPEAKER_10Well, the the entire concept for the first one was them ganging up on them before the tournament so that they didn't have to actually fight the tournament. Yeah. Just wear it's been done in at least one of the games. Three of them.
SPEAKER_00Right? No.
SPEAKER_03First game was the tournament. Second game was the second tournament because they lost the first one. The third game was um them invading because they resurrected Sidel in Earth Round.
SPEAKER_07They didn't start getting really out there until they started naming the fucking games like Armageddon and all that. And they started getting Deadly Alliance.
SPEAKER_03Yeah, I noticed it. It went one, through three. Four was the last one they had on arcades. Yep. Once they stopped doing arcades, is when they started doing more with it. Which started with Deadly Alliance, then Deception, then Normageddon.
SPEAKER_05As soon as they hit old Naga is pretty much when it was like.
SPEAKER_01Blaze was the one that reset the universe, though, kinda, wasn't it? Blaze was like an endgame, though. Yeah, you had more.
SPEAKER_11It's hard to tell. That's the problem.
SPEAKER_01Because you know you're you're saying stuff like, but you told me, I've no home black.
SPEAKER_11When I was reading the list, I'm reading the names of like I know some of this. Did I actually break off? Did I play everyone when Raiden was trying to reset the timeline, or did I break off after that?
SPEAKER_08Well, Mortal Kombat 9 is when Raiden reset the timeline. Yeah.
SPEAKER_11I remember playing that game with you guys. Gyne? Gyne? Gime. I'm trying to okay, okay. No. Gyne. It's hard. He spoke enough during the movie. You know how that is my spirit animal.
SPEAKER_01Well, didn't the MK1 was reset too in a way, wasn't it? Yeah. That was like her beginning again. Yep. By God Lu Kang. By her God Lu Kang. Yep. Because which one was Chronica? 11? Yep. Yeah. See, that's when they started getting ugh. You start getting really convoluted. That's why it needed to reset. Yep.
SPEAKER_08Honestly, I loved Mortal Kombat 1 until they got into the like multiverse shit. What, the movie or not, the game.
SPEAKER_01The game.
SPEAKER_05Nah, man.
SPEAKER_01Was that DLC stuff, or was that actually part of the story? That was part of the story. Oh shit. Oh, you can't be fucked up. You won me the newest game. I was thinking about the arc like. What? What the fuck? Did the arc game that I think that's Mortal Kombat 1 and the other one's Mortal Kombat just. Okay. That's a good way to do it. Oh, okay. Yeah. Because they kind of lost me too. But again, the the only issue I have with fighting games, you can't once you beat like the story and shit, unless you got people to play with, they're kind of like they're not that fun anymore. So it's like what's the mode in there? What was the mode in one where you're going around the game board? Like, I played that for a bit. It wasn't invasions. I played that for a bit.
SPEAKER_07I played that quite a bit. Then I finally stopped. Like, oh fuck, can't do this anymore. It's becoming the same shit over and over again.
SPEAKER_05I think that's why I like the Shallot Warriors where you monks.
SPEAKER_01Oh god, that's forever meme to me.
Mortal Kombat Game Timeline Resets
SPEAKER_01Because of when Baraka shoves the dude in his fucking head, throws him. Are you okay? No, he's not, bro. He's fucking dead. That's a lot. That's a meme.
SPEAKER_11Are you okay? One of what, two games where they gave you like free roam around the world, sort of. Are you okay? It was Shalin Monks.
SPEAKER_03Deception did it first with their story mode. And then Armageddon had somewhat similar thing with their story mode.
SPEAKER_11Yeah, I'm the one out where I liked the creator mode. Oh, I'll get him going.
SPEAKER_01I'll get him going. Create your own fatality.
SPEAKER_11That one needed work. That was needed work.
SPEAKER_01That was terrible.
SPEAKER_09I like the creative play where you make your own character. Their fatality thing. That was the worst fucking thing ever.
SPEAKER_03I'd rather fucking the heroic brutalities from MK vs.
SPEAKER_01DC.
SPEAKER_03Than fucking.
SPEAKER_01I'm gonna tell you, that is my least favorite Mortal Kombat game ever. Mortal vs. D I was terrible. We're watching this like and I love DC. Like fuck. Fatality, fatality, animality, friendship, friendship, brutality.
SPEAKER_06Brutality.
SPEAKER_08They got them all.
SPEAKER_06Yep.
SPEAKER_01That's it. Yep. That is all of them.
SPEAKER_06Well I feel like there's more.
SPEAKER_08They had one that was was it? Deadly Alliance, Harakiri. Where you put in a code and commit suicide before. Yeah.
SPEAKER_01Did you say Babe Bality? Yes. Babe Bality. It was a suicide. Yeah. Baby. Yeah, he's right. There was. Where you can kill yourself before your opponent can do a fatality on you. Son of a bitch. So it is a thing. It is a thing. Yeah, hard. You know what I like though in the movie? I like how they gave you some of them shots, like the 2D. And they had little lights on there for the fight. And shit. Oh, that's cool. I noticed I noticed the subtle thing when Katana beat up Johnny. He was just wobbling. I'm like, yeah, yeah. They're waiting for the input. There was an animality too. Yeah, he said animality. Those are fucking cool as fuck.
SPEAKER_03Yeah. With Mortal Kombat 9, they brought back fate actual fatalities and Babalities. Mortal Kombat X, they brought back brutalities, which have been in the games ever since. Mortal Kombat 11, they brought back Friendship. Yep. And Mortal Kombat 1, they brought back animalities.
SPEAKER_01Babalities, there's always this one Babality. I forget what game it's in. Because I don't think they put all of them in each game. There's a couple. They'll put friendship and Babality in this one. They'll put something in this one. Trilogy, they had them all. Yep. I don't care. Quitality? Quitality. But there's one quit on the game. Oh, online.
SPEAKER_04Rage quitting.
SPEAKER_01Yeah. Quitality. I don't play online. I don't play online. I don't play fighting games online.
SPEAKER_04I've never seen anyone post that either.
SPEAKER_01You want to know why I don't play fighting games online? Because try hard. You can think you're hot shit and go in there and just get fucking destroyed. I'm done. Y'all make me feel bad.
SPEAKER_04I've actually played online. My cousin Terry just fucking raped me on that.
SPEAKER_01And what you want to know what makes it feel bad? When you're when if you're on the mic, you try to say good game, and there's some fucking 10-year-old like, you fucking suck, dude. You're terrible.
SPEAKER_07I'm like, oh, I'd fucking kill you. You little bastard. You little bastard.
SPEAKER_05Those are the Call of Duty ones where you send them the messages. I know where you live.
SPEAKER_01I know where you live, you fucker. Ah, the old days. I'm all about like solo gaming. No, I don't know. Yeah.
SPEAKER_08I hence why I love Resident Evil.
SPEAKER_04Same thing with the closest I get to playing online is MMORPGs.
SPEAKER_01Same thing with sports games online. Make you feel like shit because you're playing against some fucking tryhards. Like, nope, done.
SPEAKER_03Again, which is why right now all I've been playing is all the Resident Evil games.
SPEAKER_01Oh, it's it's quality. It's quality. It's quality.
SPEAKER_03I never played the remake, so I've got to play them now.
SPEAKER_01The fight choreography is great. Oh choreographed-wise, I think the best fight in the movie was I think it was Kung Lao and Liu Kang. Yes. Well, again, they're both martial artists in real life. So not only that, but it fit. Their characters are also martial. Like it fits. You gotta kick out of the stage. Like, hey!
SPEAKER_04I gotta kick out go. How many stages could you call out?
SPEAKER_11I was like, yeah, that one, that one, that one. I said nice to one and I heard him go, what, what?
SPEAKER_08Well, okay, so where GitHub fought. It was the acid. Pardon. Sindel and Sonya fought. Like that's a stage. Yeah. They changed it up a little bit for the movie, but like a needle pit.
SPEAKER_09They changed up, didn't they?
SPEAKER_01Yeah. That's what I was talking about. Yeah, that's the one that Sonya and Sindel were.
SPEAKER_09They had the acid pit.
SPEAKER_01Yeah. Again.
SPEAKER_05I thought another reptile was gonna fucking show a high.
SPEAKER_08I knew Yeah, man. The only two people they were bringing back were Kano and Kung Lao.
SPEAKER_05One of my one of you don't count.
SPEAKER_01Beehive. Beehive. Since they said Beehive? Beehive? Yeah. Bees! No, not oh fuck. I got Nicholas Cage in my head. Not the bees, not the bees.
SPEAKER_03I'm not counting that because he didn't come back and sub zero. He came back in his noob sidebar.
SPEAKER_01I thought you'd get a fucking chumpy in your chair. Like, ooh. You didn't get as excited as I thought.
SPEAKER_11He got excited about it.
Favorite Modes And Series Oddities
SPEAKER_11They ch sort of changed it up a bit. Like, JD is noob and you don't care.
SPEAKER_05Well, noob is one of my favorites, but I was like, let's stay away from the actual favorites here. You're gonna give away his whole list with him talking.
SPEAKER_01Oh no. Oh, one thing, kind of going back to the first one that I that was issue. I well, it's kind of not really a spoiler, but I don't like how they treated Reptile in the first one. I'm like, oh why y'all doing Reptile?
SPEAKER_03Like they did Reiko dirty, they did.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, Reiko was a big dumb fuck. I just rewatched, I'm like They did Nataro dirty, like Oh, Nataro was there just to get you the fatality. They did reptile dirty, they did Goro dirty.
SPEAKER_08You think they did Goro Dirty? I at least Goro did shit. He's like, dang. The show gone. And you kill them off. Yep. They uh like I understand it's a Mortal Kombat movie. You're gonna kill them all.
SPEAKER_04Yep. I understand.
SPEAKER_08Prince Goro.
SPEAKER_04The one thing I did appreciate about this one is we actually got the Takaran race. Like we got to see them are people.
SPEAKER_01Yeah. But we didn't see Toral's Tarkotta, yeah. I was like, I was like, Tarcotta? What's Tarkata? Tarcotta. Jay makes some good names. Tarcotta. Yeah. The Tarcadas. Tortillas? Tartias? Oh no. The Tortillas.
SPEAKER_08Oh but uh wasn't I wasn't a big fan of design.
SPEAKER_01Like how they got the face design. Like, wasn't a big fan. I was gonna say, I know you took a little issue with Baraka.
SPEAKER_08Yeah. He's a bro. He's a bro.
SPEAKER_01And they made him a bro. They made him a bro. Well, you killed Lul, so you better get another one. That fight was entertaining as a bitch, though. Oh yeah, it was.
SPEAKER_02What the fuck?
SPEAKER_01What what was the fuck's like utter distraction? Oh come on, you know I'm you know I'm pulling that out in a fuck.
SPEAKER_04He's gonna walk into work on Monday and just go talk to our supervisor Screamer and just start doing this wave thing. What the fuck are you doing?
SPEAKER_11I'm just gonna have no more wave time the same way I worked on him in the movie. It's gonna be utter distraction. He won't do the split stuff.
SPEAKER_04You can't.
SPEAKER_01No, I would risk that. Next thing you know, my nut sack rips and it's over.
SPEAKER_00Ah.
SPEAKER_01What else? What else was again? A lot of these are minor nitpicks, though. You think they downplayed Sindell a little bit?
SPEAKER_10I'm like, damn. Well, that was that was something I was gonna bring up. I don't think she got a character name in the ending. I didn't hear it. No, she didn't.
SPEAKER_01I don't think she did. She did. Sindell got downplayed. Like, I'm like, oh, you're downplayed the fuck out of Sindell.
SPEAKER_04Brought her back for Shaw Kahn to threaten.
SPEAKER_01Yeah. And then that was it. Yeah. They only said her name a couple times. You'd have to know, like, if you know Laura, oh, there's Sindel. There's King Jared. Like King Jared went out. King Jared had to put put a little hands on Shaw Kahn for a little bit. He went out, but he put some hands on him. Honestly, I was expecting Urmac. Until he lost his. Ermac's that'll that's gonna be a section. People we want to see in three at some at three, but Urmac is a big one that we ain't seen yet.
SPEAKER_03But with them also doing the whole Adenia thing, like you could have brought in Tanya, you could have brought in.
unknownYeah.
SPEAKER_01Okay, what did you think of Jade's turn? No. Not her look. No. I have one comment. I had no problem with her look. I hair's different. I loved, I actually love, I was a little iffy with the actress at first, but I loved how she portrayed. Jade don't have the long flowing black hair, and I was like, bro? The hair growing. The fot, bro. That's again, nitpick. But I had no problem with it. I figured you probably wouldn't, but I'm like, where's her hair at?
SPEAKER_10They've only made two interesting characters, Susan, because isn't also Molina the Queen of some of one of the two. Which one is she? Clone. Clone. Yeah. And she looked nothing like either one.
SPEAKER_01The one she's supposed to look like. Yeah. Melina's dead. She's in the first one dead. And I'm like, man.
SPEAKER_08Yeah, she's a clone of Katana. Yeah. With Tarkotton blood. Yep.
SPEAKER_01Not like either of them.
SPEAKER_08Nope.
SPEAKER_01Uh other than that. I am happy they bring Kano back, though. There's Kano, he's back.
SPEAKER_10He looks more like a clone of Jade than she is supposed to, technically. Yep, but they brought back Kano because they had to.
SPEAKER_01They had to. They needed to banter with him and Johnny Key. No, it wasn't even that.
SPEAKER_03He was the best part of the first movie.
SPEAKER_01I could agree. I can agree.
SPEAKER_03What they did is everything that was a complaint about the first one, they fixed production.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, they smashed their head in. Now, that is actually, I'm gonna tell you right now, some that annoyed some people. Some people did not like that. They thought they killed, and he even my my reviewers said I understand a lot. Most people didn't like Cole. I understand it. But that was just kind of, oh, we're gonna kill him off. Here he's gone now. That's lazy. People caught he got in a way.
SPEAKER_03No, no, lazy. The way that I set up with Shao Kahn X would be in the tournament, you knew he was gonna kill whoever he fought.
SPEAKER_01It was the easiest one. They let him almost win, though. So it wasn't that's why even I'm like, oh, at least they let Cole do some shit. He didn't get clowned. Yeah. Which is what I expected to happen. Like he was a big it's weird though. I understand, like, because I even was like, why is the main character an original character? What the fuck? I even understood it too.
SPEAKER_10But I was like, if anything, they kind of downplayed Shao because he was getting his ass kicked a lot, or at least wasn't defending himself a lot. I appreciated his special move coming in.
SPEAKER_04That fucking oh, yeah. What was that? What do they call that? Yeah.
SPEAKER_01He was a big thing.
SPEAKER_03I was expecting him to throw his energy spear at some point.
SPEAKER_01Yeah. Well, he was tanky. Well, that's
Movie Details That Hit Right
SPEAKER_01no, just show. He is tanky. And they made him more tanky by giving him blood. Here, immortality. The guy who played him, though, was one of my stand-ups. He did actually. His voice didn't fit.
SPEAKER_07I didn't think it was that bad. I thought it was cool.
SPEAKER_04Like, I had no problem with the voice.
SPEAKER_01It would be like, what, deeper and more menacing? Yeah. He needed a deeper voice.
SPEAKER_03I mean, come on, you gotta remember, I was playing the games my whole life. And nothing sucked more to get in. He didn't taunt on him either. Where he just sits there, points, you suck.
SPEAKER_04No, that's the shoulder tackle gave me a few.
SPEAKER_11Here you go, JJ. MK9 black.
SPEAKER_08It's like fucker.
SPEAKER_01That fucker's final fight in MK9 is still to this day nightmares. Because I think it was fit. I'm like, bro. Oh bro. Nah. Stop throwing that fucking hammer.
SPEAKER_03The one time he gave me like real issue was fucking the original Mortal Kombat 3. Not ultimate, not trilogy, like the original.
SPEAKER_09Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. I don't think I remember that one.
SPEAKER_03Were they um it was a one in circulation because a lot of people were pissed because like Scorpion wasn't in a Baraka raid and like there was a lot of people missing from that. Which one? Didn't they? The original three.
SPEAKER_11The original three went back down to what eight characters?
SPEAKER_07Nah. Yeah, they weren't yeah. It was like 10, 12, something like that.
SPEAKER_01Do you do you like how they well, you know, do you like how they worm Scorpion back in there? Like, get Scorpion back in there. Honestly, I was fine. I was just like, people, some people are like, yeah, he had to shoehorn him back in there.
SPEAKER_09Honestly, with Colon dying the way he did, I thought he was gonna I thought he was gonna pop up in another one, especially with uh the skull.
SPEAKER_01I have heard a theory about that. I would actually love it because I think that actor is really good. You know what people want? They want they want Lewis Tan to come back, but as Kenshi. They want him to be Kenshi. He does have the look for it. Yeah. Well, technically they can't even bring Cole back.
SPEAKER_10Yeah, they can. No, but Blanche said can you bring him back without the head? They crushed Cole's head. Oh yeah.
SPEAKER_05Just give him a thought. Turn him into another new character. Oh god. Make ha ha! We got you, another new one!
SPEAKER_09God, but they could just turn him into drumming.
SPEAKER_01Oh no! Oh not the thinky fly son bitch! Oh no, turn him into meat. Oh.
SPEAKER_10There is an outside loophole. There's no canon content for this, but they could just turn him into a scorpion.
SPEAKER_09Low key, yes. Yeah. I mean, that definitely would be a new fucking concept considering you have noob Cybot. Yep. You could have a fucking I'm surprised they didn't do nothing else with the Link Way though. The LinkedIn.
SPEAKER_11No. I mean, they kind of dressed his minions up in these black, like uh almost into like outfits, but they weren't. You're talking about the first one?
SPEAKER_01No, he's talking about Shao Casm. Oh, it's fucking random black guy black black robe dudes. Yes. That were they weren't Ling Kui. No. But like the Link Wei, you got Kwai Li Yang, who's sub-zero. Yeah. You got Cyrax, Sector. Bring me back from.
SPEAKER_10Based on the current timeline, it doesn't fit as well as what they want, but they can easily bring it in.
SPEAKER_01They're gonna have to. Like, that's three big characters. Well, that's where we're where we go. Well, where's three? I know they're gonna try to go get their champ get everyone back. My most favorite clans of the games. Yeah.
SPEAKER_04It's where you get the most characters.
SPEAKER_01Is do you think in three it's Shinnock? Yeah. They ain't gonna do Kronika. They ain't gonna do Blaze yet. They ain't gonna Oh naught. Oh god. No, they're getting Fire God.
SPEAKER_08I I'm trying to Yeah, like with them killing Shao Kahn.
SPEAKER_01He could always come back too. Yeah. Shang Tsun's technically still alive. Yeah, he just got blasted away.
SPEAKER_09They'll do the Deadly Alliance.
SPEAKER_05Guan Chi, you mean all the more spots did they uh take for inspiration for this movie, would you say?
SPEAKER_07None.
SPEAKER_05None?
SPEAKER_07None. They're they're not following. They're doing their own.
SPEAKER_01I kind of like it, but they can do it.
SPEAKER_10They're doing their own thing. They're loosely following the set story of the tournaments, but they're not doing anything story-related.
SPEAKER_01They'll start grabbing characters and using them at the end of the day.
SPEAKER_05I dumbass almost thought that those lights up top, you know, the the original ten almost be like the health bars.
SPEAKER_04That would be an interesting fucking movie choice to do, don't you think?
SPEAKER_08But let's see. I'm trying to think.
SPEAKER_02Like they brought in the whole revenue shit.
SPEAKER_10Your arcana.
SPEAKER_01You oh they got rid of that. They never even mentioned the dragon symbol again. Didn't that make you cringe in the first one? Arcana, what the fuck? God. Yep.
SPEAKER_07Arcana.
SPEAKER_10They were just trying to figure out a way to explain shit without having to say, ooh, magic. Magic. Magic. Have some magic.
unknownOh.
SPEAKER_08Just bring it up.
SPEAKER_03You got a literal god on the screen.
SPEAKER_10How do we exist? How do we give humans energy powers and explain it? That's all they were trying to do.
SPEAKER_01It was stupid and they got rid of it. Yeah. Way too, way too early for the kids. Way too early. Oh. Even though I'd love to see Cassie cage. They're not gonna bring it up.
SPEAKER_11You'd be like a fucking 80-year-old and by time. Cassie's able to fight.
SPEAKER_10They don't even have the romantic goals. It'll come.
SPEAKER_11Oh, there was flirtation. It'll come.
SPEAKER_01There's some needling.
SPEAKER_05There was no thread yet.
SPEAKER_01I like how it kind of fools you. Johnny is a centerpiece, but Katana is just as much a centerpiece in a movie as Johnny Cage is. That surprised me. That they gave Katana
Character Nitpicks And Big Fixes
SPEAKER_01the win. Well, she wouldn't have won without Johnny breaking the amulet at the end, so it's a horse apiece, I guess.
SPEAKER_08Nah, what I mean, like how they seemingly killed Liu Kang.
unknownYeah.
SPEAKER_09And then had him set up, oh, it's not my fight too much.
SPEAKER_01I'm not the chosen one.
SPEAKER_05You you get to kill him because he killed your father, type thing.
SPEAKER_08Yeah, like when in the games, Liu Kang is the champion. Yeah. Liu Kang the.
SPEAKER_06Well, hold on a second. Didn't Liu Kang in the movie say I'm not the champion, the chosen one? Well, that kind of fucks with shit, doesn't it?
SPEAKER_03Champion. Like, in the first four games, Liu Kang canonically is the one who won them all. Which is why in Deadly Alliance's opening, they kill Liu Kang and Xiao Kahn. They'll prove their power.
SPEAKER_01Yep, yep. I'm just thinking of, well, you touched on it before, of some of the characters that ain't been seen yet that probably should. Like the cyber the cyber ninjas. People, Cyrax.
SPEAKER_00He just looks weird without the long hair.
SPEAKER_01Cyrax, Sector. Smoke. Smoke the smoke. Motherfucker Rain.
SPEAKER_07Motherfucker Rain.
SPEAKER_01Why are you trying to give away his list like that? Please not. Damn! Oh fuck. God, who else would I like to fucking see? Just for the fucking jokes, Stryker. That is if you wanted to bring in a no-diff character, you could just kill at any point. He almost made my list. I'm sorry. When you go back and watch Stryker's opening shit in before he fights in like MK9, police brutality coming up.
SPEAKER_03I mean, in Armageddon, he's the one who like when a pyramid pops up, he's the first one to swing. Fucking cocax Molino.
SPEAKER_04He actually doesn't get enough for his character, and then all the you know the political shit fucked him over.
SPEAKER_07Kenshi, well, Kenshi's a Kenshi is one of the more popular ones you ain't seen yet, is Kenshi, I think.
SPEAKER_01Kenshi, Ermac. Hmm. God, there's that you get then there's some real fucking obscure ones. You know who I want for shits and giggles? What? Oh, Rachel. Oh god. Bring him up at all.
SPEAKER_08It's very easy to train fucking Luke Kang and gone wild.
SPEAKER_02Oh god. You have a very valid point there, sir. Mocap.
SPEAKER_08That's a chill character. I don't give a shit.
SPEAKER_05You can easily throw him in as a fucking cameo.
SPEAKER_08Mo Cap. For Johnny Cage. Mo Cap.
SPEAKER_01Oh God.
SPEAKER_07Oh, you know who I want though? God, he's newer though, but I don't care. That's a bad motherfucker, KodalCon. That's a bad son of a I love Kodal Khan. That's Aztec ShowCon. Oh.
SPEAKER_10Since we're talking about the movie, my phone's deciding this is the time to bring up stuff. Screenwriter said the closest character that they thought to bringing on the screen, but had to write them out the last minute was Tremor.
SPEAKER_01That's Nuber Boy. No, he's Tremor's been there for a bit. I could have I he's only appeared in a side game character?
SPEAKER_03Yes. He was in Spe Jackson Special Forces game. Oh, okay. Yeah. Yeah. Oh God. That's where he was introduced. He wasn't in a mainline fighting game until MKX.
SPEAKER_01Oh my god. Holy shit. He's Black Dragon. No, you got me think about fucking that game. Like What the fuck? Special Forces? Some of them weird fucking one sh one one-off games they fucking spin-off games. Who's another one they can bring?
SPEAKER_03Fujin?
SPEAKER_01Fujin. Another spin off? Fujin.

SPEAKER_01Let's see. You know.
SPEAKER_05Nine is probably where I cut off.
SPEAKER_01She's newer, but surprisingly popular. A lot of people like D'Vorah. Yeah. Insect bitch. That's because they shut her down a thing. What?
SPEAKER_03And MKX and they really like.
SPEAKER_08They gave her all the kills.
SPEAKER_03Yep. She killed Baraka canonically. She killed Melina. She killed Scorpion.
SPEAKER_01You're like, they gave Devora all the fucking character.
SPEAKER_04I didn't like her because of that. I just liked her design. Shit.
SPEAKER_08No, like they propped her up to be a big character. Okay. So that's why she has a huge fan base. Where'd she come from? Outworld. Outworld.
SPEAKER_09So we have all these fucking tribes and shit that we have yet to see. Yeah.
SPEAKER_01Oh god. Out Centaurus. Hey! Give me a tiger dude with four arms. Serena? I'm going through the character.
SPEAKER_03Nana. Uh, she might pop up and if they do Shinock shit, she might pop up. Shiva. Give me that four arm.
SPEAKER_05I'd deceive her in this one.

SPEAKER_01Jerick? No. Hi. No. Meet. No. Yes. Rako. He already got him. He's stupid.
SPEAKER_11I'm not kidding. I kind of want to.

I love him, dude. He'd jump on your ass. His fatality. He light his fart off fire. Draman? I brought him up earlier. He smelled like shit. You got flies growing. Frost would be cool. I'd like. Yep. Who? Suha.
SPEAKER_03The most hated character.
SPEAKER_01Suhao? Oh, the fucking. Hey, Chinese dude. Kenshi Lime. Hey, Li Mei. Li Mei, alright. Mo cap. Yeah. Movato, I don't see them. Not Movado.
SPEAKER_03Oh, God. I don't see them bringing Movado.
SPEAKER_01What about them motherfucking Darius? Moloch? If they put Darius, I'm done. I'm not gonna go straight. If they bring in Chaos Realm and Order Realm, they might. The jokes don't stop if I see Darius.
SPEAKER_03If they bring Makara? If they bring in Order Realm and Chaos Realm, they'll bring in Dark. Darius will bring in Havoc.
SPEAKER_01Havoc? As long as I don't see fucking Ferrator. No. That's a fucking little fucker.
SPEAKER_03Ashra. Asherah might be in the next game because it has Or the next movie if they do the shit next royal line, because she's from another realm.
SPEAKER_01Do you not hate Ferrator? I hate Ferrator. No, not Ferator. You that little fucker? That growing around here. I don't mind. Ooh, I want to catch that little fucker so much. What was Ferrator in? Ten? Yeah. Ten. Yep. Scarlet. Don't shoot. That's my bitch right there. Damn it, I'm spoiling my list.
SPEAKER_07I don't know if they'll bring her. Don't shoot nothing bad about Scarlet. I don't mind her as a character.
SPEAKER_01What game did she debut in? Nine. Good man. Aaron Black. Just testing.
SPEAKER_06DLC, wasn't she?
unknownYeah.
SPEAKER_01She was DLC. She haven't.
SPEAKER_07I don't see them bringing Aaron Black in.
SPEAKER_03I remember. Aaron Black was that's the outlaw. That's the cowboy. He's played in two games and they changed the story from the first one. In the first, like he first appeared in MKX where he specifically said, don't like Black Dragon, don't tell Sheet Wade. And in MK11, he's Black Dragon. Do they bring in Kodal Khan almost immediately? I don't know. I love Kodal Khan. If they'd separate Denia from Outworld, they might bring Kodal in.
SPEAKER_01That should almost be part of the next. Again, I don't know what their plan is. I would say Night Wolf, but Nightwolf cameoed in the first one. He was a picture on their fucking wall. I was like, that's Night Wolf. So was Kodal Khan. Yeah, yeah, Kodal Khan was there too.
SPEAKER_04Nightwolf, they might. You mean the UFC kids who were that they had all the fucking posters?
SPEAKER_10No, it's Sony's basement. Yeah, yeah, the pictures. Which, as much as they've touched on descendants in this franchise already, they could have a descendant of Night Wolf. Well, uh Patty Chief Eve.
SPEAKER_03They changed it where Nightwolf the Cowboy movies.
SPEAKER_08Alright. Yeah, I'll keep talking. I'm gonna go ahead and spare it. I mean the voice needs to have so much right there.
SPEAKER_01I was about to say we could always open up the we could pause it, but we can find more doors open for us. Okay. We can always find more shit top. I mean. Did Matt, did you have any issues? Or not really? I touched on all of that. I didn't really.
SPEAKER_10I my co my opening concern was that when they were showing the Johnny Cage movie, it was like, oh, this looks bad. I hope this is an entire movie, and then it got better. The first punch was I think it was intentional to make a movie.
SPEAKER_11Like an early 90s cheese movie. Late 80s, early 90s cheese.
SPEAKER_10Oh, you're telling me the ricochang RPG?
SPEAKER_01Yeah. Me, how the great 90s movies. Like a couple of the gripes I heard, my couple of reviewers were, like I said, were iffy with the how they just how they offed Cole Young, but it didn't bother me as much. I was like, eh, maybe you could have done more of it on the week. At least it would when you fought Show up.
SPEAKER_10I you saw a coming in the trailers. You noticed that, oh, you only got the only scene of him in the trailers was him talking to Johnny. And you knew that was a good one.
SPEAKER_01Oh, motivate-oh, when they're all yapping. Yeah. For my for my family. I'll I'll die for my family.
SPEAKER_10Red flag. And you notice you didn't see him in another fight, the rest of the movie.
SPEAKER_01And here actually brought it up as why he why'd they kill him so quickly?
SPEAKER_11I was like, oh.
SPEAKER_01Because no one liked him. And act like I said, he could have redeemed his character in this movie. Kinda. Kinda. I I don't know about I didn't think he was that bad in the first one.
SPEAKER_04Everyone hated him, and it's like, I mean, it wasn't bad, but they they could have done it so that he made sense more to the story. But after he died, they kind of just wrote him off. Yeah.
SPEAKER_01He's dead. Okay. Retcon fixed. What else? Some people thought that it was a little rushed and combobbled. Some characters didn't get as much development, but I'm like, it's Mortal Kombat.
SPEAKER_10Who the fuck really the only two that needed development really were Katana and Johnny.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, you're right. You're 100% right.
SPEAKER_10Everybody else got character arc in the last movie.
SPEAKER_01Yep, you're right. Who painted? Yeah, for the most part.
SPEAKER_10He got a redeeming thing, but he's that but they're showing showing you he's not the main character in this franchise. Yeah. It's everybody else.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, well, we don't know about the next one because it kind of looked like they're leaning hard into the fire god thing.
SPEAKER_01I mean, did them doing that already. Oh my god. I'm like, hey, maybe he's just becoming a part of the multiverse. Oh lord.
SPEAKER_06That's a big thing in the fucking movies now.
Villains And Power Scaling Complaints
SPEAKER_06It is.
SPEAKER_01It is. It is. You know what I want to you know what I really want to see though? I want to see fucking I want to see Raiden. He paused again. Fight. I want to see Raiden actually like fight. Did he say the word fucking too? Yeah. Yeah. Every time. I want to see Raiden fight. He fights, but he don't get running a full fight. Lightning blast. Get away. Get away from me. Lightning blast. Against the damn sorcerer. God damn it. Shang Sung Shang Sung's fucking main power. Sucking. Like, bro.
SPEAKER_05Oh fucking. Hey, you got saved in that movie. Ah! Almost got sucked out by another dude.
SPEAKER_01I'm gonna tell you right now, they would it's I wonder if they would have kept it in the movie. If I was playing that part there, stop sucking me! I wonder if they'd have keep it in. You keep that in. Hey, you don't know how many deleted teams there are for this movie. Probably a lot.
SPEAKER_11Oh my god. I wanna ask. I mean, actually, that that's something that's missed on a lot of DVD or uh, well, I should say, blue lyrics and shit.
SPEAKER_10It's probably my biggest gripe though with this franchise today because Sheng Tsung is also portrayed as like the first pre preliminary boss before you get to Shao Kahn or whatever. He's kind of just been no-diff to the entire franchise.
SPEAKER_05He was just a background character.
SPEAKER_06Yeah, he was the star scream of the movie. Like, I'm vying for power, but I'm vying for power. And then Kwan Chi. Was he just uh Shao Kahn's butt boy?
SPEAKER_01Yeah, kinda.
SPEAKER_05I mean instead of the ruler of the Netherrun?
SPEAKER_01Or Voldemort's Balsack, but yeah. Butt boy. But boy. Did you want me to say fuck boy or boy god? Oh my god. There were no femboys in this movie. No, there was not. There was not. Otherwise you would have seen get excited. God, I'm sitting here like, my god, for the most part, a lot of the uh we literally mentioned most of the fucking almost all the fucking characters ain't been fucking in there. Yeah. Oh, chameleon.
SPEAKER_05Which one?
SPEAKER_01Which one? Which one?
SPEAKER_05The one spelt with a C or the one spelled with a K.
SPEAKER_01Oh god.
SPEAKER_03Oh, and the golf what you're talking about with the Johnny Cage movie thing. He's a cheesy actor.
SPEAKER_10I I know. I I I was concerned that's how his acting was gonna portray, but no, they kept it in the movie and it's fine. I'm okay with it.
SPEAKER_01Here we go, here we go. I'm gonna rifle through this real quick. I wanted 11 worst characters in Motocombat history. Here you go, JJ. Here you go, here we go. 11 guy.
SPEAKER_08They try to set him up and be the next Liu Kang and he flopped.
SPEAKER_01Molok. You remember that fucker? Yep. Oh my god. Man, meat meat was funny. They got Bo Right Show at eight as one of the worst characters. Not a lot of people like him.
SPEAKER_11I'm an butt you already know how odd I am with that. Taven? Oh fuck.
SPEAKER_01I I like his fighting style, okay? Chameleon and Chameleon. Mo cap. Oprah. Take Oprah. Oh god. Jarek. Oh my fucking God. I think Matt said Jerick, and Jay's like, no. No fucking Jared.
SPEAKER_08He was a wannabe Kano.
SPEAKER_02Yep, the worst character.
SPEAKER_08A lot of people don't like Sue Howe. God.
SPEAKER_01Drummond wasn't even on there, and people make fun of him all the time. Frost. Because he's fucking got flies flying around them all the time. Oh that's why it sticks like shit. To me, I'm just gonna do that.
SPEAKER_10So we do only doing ten or no, we've got top ten, but Jay wanted to do a fighting game draft.
SPEAKER_11Oh I thought it'd be cool to draft our own uh team to fight in Immortal Compact. Okay. Five five characters at most.
unknownOkay.
SPEAKER_11It's up to you guys. I have room for six. We have room for six. Six.
SPEAKER_01We can draft six characters
Drafting The Ultimate Fighting Game Team
SPEAKER_01from any fighting game, but only fighting game. So Mortal Kombat, Street Fighter, Tekken, Soul Caliber.
SPEAKER_10You're number one right now.
SPEAKER_01Son of a bitch. I don't left. I'm second. What about you're first?
SPEAKER_06I'll throw a fucking freebie out there. Balicia.
SPEAKER_01Oh, wait a minute. I gotta ask this though before Jay did not sit. Jay's responding. No, no. I just thought of something. Marvel vs. Capcom is a fighting game. We're not counting it. Marvel, no Marvel. I joked about it with him and he didn't know Smash Brothers. That's uh you get what I'm saying. No injustice, no Smash Brothers. And you can't cop out, say, Darth Vader because he was in Soul Caliber.
SPEAKER_04You can, however, go with like fighters or uh you guys are putting no rules on this.
SPEAKER_01I am, man. No, I just thought of that now. Like, wait, what if Marvel and Beats Marvel vs. Capcom is a fighting game, and I don't want to do this. I have no fighting game knowledge whatsoever. Well, it don't matter then. We can do it to I was just thinking that just randomly came to my fucking head. It don't matter.
SPEAKER_04We I don't get we care. We get to debate this afterwards anyways.
SPEAKER_10The rule on myself was I was only gonna pick games that I've played, which is not many.
SPEAKER_01Well, that's fine then. That's totally fine. I don't care. I was just I was trying to think of it from your side of random graph, but that works out. That's the only way I can do it unless I was doing Mortal Kombat cards. No, no, no, you're right. Makes sense. No matter, man. Okay. I said Felicia from Darkstar.
SPEAKER_08Okay. We're doing Marvel Wars. I'm not my first character, Ned.
SPEAKER_01It'll make it more funny. It's gonna be funny anyway. Matt, I'm happy Matt explained it. I'm like, Dean, we're doing it so I can okay. Makes sense though. Because technically you could say Darth Vader, because he's in Soul Caliber. As a guest. Yes. Well, I first picked Superman from the Justice.
SPEAKER_10I was hoping. There we go. That was an easy one. Right out the gate.
SPEAKER_01I'm not Dave Chun Lee, Street Fighter. Look at Jade bro.
SPEAKER_04Okay.
SPEAKER_01The harem begins. Nightmare.
SPEAKER_10That was one of my harem begins.

SPEAKER_02Oh for Christ's sakes!
SPEAKER_01He's made wrong. He got your anime list too. Oh fuck, JSTARS exists. You opened it up. No, my brain just unlocked everything now. This is where my brain went when he said all fucking games.
SPEAKER_11It's like I'm going Goku with Superman first defensive Mortal Kombat. You're just your realm.
SPEAKER_02Go ahead.
SPEAKER_08There you go.
SPEAKER_02I'm the soul down to earth one so far right now.

SPEAKER_10Yeah. T-R.
unknownYep.
SPEAKER_09I forgot about Killer Instinct.
SPEAKER_11I I definitely feel like I'm pulling stuff that should be knowledgeable, but it also feels too like level.
SPEAKER_09Dark Vader.
SPEAKER_11I feel like this is our goddamn Dark Vader. I feel like this is our Justice League all over again.
SPEAKER_10And I'm not picking them off of Soul Calibrum. Well we got mine? Yeah.
SPEAKER_07Doomsday.
SPEAKER_02There we go. There you go.
SPEAKER_08Yoshimitsu. That was one I looked at my twin.
SPEAKER_11Can't give him Yoshimitsu. Can't! You can't give this fucker Yoshimitsu. No, strike him for the record, damn it. No, he's gonna hop on you with a damn sword.
SPEAKER_01That was one I was looking at. I'm an ex-play. Oh my god. How many, how many we got how many spots we got? Six? If we go full six, you got minimum two more. We'll go full. We'll probably go. Doctor Doom. Houston Marvel's capcom.

SPEAKER_06Yep. Captain Falcon. I I actually really like that one. Dean. Two more. One.
SPEAKER_00Hmm. Hmm. Hmm. Let me see. Actually.
SPEAKER_07I gotta think for a second, because that would actually that would counter, that would hurt my team because there's those I don't think they'd get along very well.
SPEAKER_01I'm drafting my Kano with my last pick, so I hate to think.
SPEAKER_02No, no. Let's see, let's see. Hmm. You going Femme Fotel or are you trying to stay on the team?
SPEAKER_01No, no, I'm I'm actually now I've switched to um I got my I got my Sweetie up there, it don't matter no more. God. You know what? No, no. You didn't take your Mortal Kombat guy yet. He might depends who my last pick's gonna be. I didn't pick a single one of them yet. I don't have one either, surprisingly, but neither of the two I'm thinking about it to pick yet.
SPEAKER_05My last pick isn't even it's another pull of the hat.
SPEAKER_01Spider-Man You could have gotten away without the last pick, probably. I know.
SPEAKER_06No, because his next pick should be the female equivalent.
SPEAKER_09Oh yeah. Should I go dead or alive? Ninja Gaiden.
SPEAKER_08No, no, no, no, hold on, hold on, hold on.
SPEAKER_00What was his name? What was his name? What was his name?
SPEAKER_02I'm not the only one.
SPEAKER_11We know shit, but it just doesn't always go right there. We have the picture in our head.
SPEAKER_08Bad Mr. Frosty. Clan fighters. And then my bench won't Wesker. You did Marvel vs. Capcom.
SPEAKER_07Bench? Well, not maybe not bench.
SPEAKER_01Who is your asshole?
SPEAKER_07Wesker?
unknownYeah.
SPEAKER_07I gotta get my Resident Evil a little bit. You gotta get your own Resident Evil. Let me see. And I didn't want to paint the bull to punch an asshole. I need a wild card.
SPEAKER_01I can do most shit, rogue. That is a wild card. Depends who she touched, you gotta toto anybody. Well, depending what rogue's powers change like fucking night and day. USK you're a meshie. Jump horse. You almost killed me because you said the game. Consumi. Dead or laugh. Dead or laugh.

SPEAKER_09I don't think all mine's gone.
SPEAKER_08No, let me change.
SPEAKER_09I don't think I'm surviving. I don't think my my world's surviving mortal.
SPEAKER_02Hold on.
SPEAKER_06Oh I have supernatural shit on there, but it's not exactly world-changing like fucking Dr. Fate and Dr.
SPEAKER_02Doom and Well, I was probably gonna take Storm, but I I was really sorry about that, Mr. Frosty. Glacius. Glacius?
SPEAKER_01Matt surprised me with Storm. I was like, you waited too long.
SPEAKER_06Snake drop bit you in the ass. You know, hey, his ass.
SPEAKER_04Could have picked Metal Gear Solid character.
SPEAKER_06He could have picked Snake. No.
SPEAKER_02Snake!
SPEAKER_00Snake! Snake! Snake!
SPEAKER_01You decided to go with both Dooms instead of Swan. The only problem, the only thing with my team is Doom is my de facto leader, but controlling Doomsday is an issue with my that's the only issue with my team. Except I'm pretty sure fate could probably do a spell like control, but still.
SPEAKER_11Who would lead my fucking team?
SPEAKER_01That's why I took Doom. I need a leader.
SPEAKER_11Jin would probably try. But the only one that would actually probably lead the team would be Kasumi.
SPEAKER_01You know who I was. I had two on my list. You and me both have a Street Fighter.
SPEAKER_08Tekken, Soul Calibur, Mortal Kombat, Docks, Dark Souls, Killer Instinct, Soul Calibur, Killer Instinct, Tekken, Invincible just a little.
SPEAKER_02What?
SPEAKER_01Brawl character.
SPEAKER_11You know, I gave you that option. I thought we were gonna get a brawl character somewhere like Kirby.
SPEAKER_01Okay, Kirby. I was going. Oh god. My original choice why I hesitated, why it just pivoted and said Spider-Man, I was originally gonna say Magneto. But I I didn't like Magneto and Doom on the same team because I don't think that's going well. I was like, no.
SPEAKER_08Side tangent, because you're a Resident Evil guy like me.
SPEAKER_01Yeah.
SPEAKER_08What do you think the next remake's gonna be?
SPEAKER_01What, the next game? Or the next remake.
SPEAKER_03Zero Veronica Wan.
SPEAKER_07Oh, it's a Resident Evil Tangent. Good. I was waiting for this. I'm pretty
Resident Evil Remakes And Movie Chaos
SPEAKER_07sure it's confirmed to be Veronica and Veronica.
SPEAKER_03That's what all the time.
SPEAKER_07I'm 90% sure it's confirmed to be Veronica. And RE1 has another, it's years up. They have started RE1's remake too. Another remake. They're remaking it again.
SPEAKER_00Good.
SPEAKER_07Without the good little tank controllers.
SPEAKER_01Oh my god. I tried to replay one. Oh, I replayed one. God, is that something? Oh my god, I'm talking about I'm talking about I try to replay the original, not the remake. And I was like, oh no. You low-key could nemhys. He's peering some of them, some of them fucking. I like Wesker. Yeah. Marvel. Seven minutes. Seven minutes, that's all I can give you. Seven.
SPEAKER_08Seven minutes. Shakira. Shakira, Shakira.
SPEAKER_01One pump. Oh my. Hey, that's still that's still lives in it. White. I wanted Resident Evil to come up because it's gonna be the most controversial movie of the year. And I that movie is splitting people right down the middle. Because it it's oh boy.
SPEAKER_08I I'm going to see it.
SPEAKER_01So there's your next movie. I'm going to see it. You got another one in this year. Well, I know. Welcome to you. Yep.
SPEAKER_03Yep. Yep. I'm going to see it because I did not like what they did with the original Resident Evil movies.
SPEAKER_01They're talking about the WS Anderson ones. Those are my guilty pleasure. I told you that message. I can't. Welcome to Raccoon City. I haven't. It was okay. I didn't mind it. The problem is they took games one, two, and three and tried to mush them together. And it just it was a lot. And they made Leon a fucking doofus. I'm like, I'm done.
SPEAKER_04No, he wasn't the doofus, though.
SPEAKER_01He was a fucking tar. That wasn't my Leon. That wasn't that wasn't my Leon. What was he doing his one-liners, though? No, he was a fucking dingus. No, he was a real dingus. He wasn't even cool. Like, that is not Leon.
SPEAKER_05Come on, man. Dani had a weird fucking hairdube. Like, his design was a little off.
SPEAKER_01That's not Leon. That's who they you got. Did you bring up his actor? Yeah. Oh, yeah, that was so bad, dude. It would that's what I didn't like that.
SPEAKER_10And they played him like a Zombie Land 2 character, his Zombie Land 2 character.
SPEAKER_01A lot of good things about it though. Like, I like that they nodded. They were at the beginning that the stars team's at a diner and Jill's eating a sandwich and Barry walks by. That's not a Jill sandwich. I'm like, yes.
SPEAKER_08Barry tell everybody that about that.
SPEAKER_01And they had a three-second, and they had like a two-second, I guess it was like the first movie after COVID. They had like a two-second shot of a random umbrella. People thought, but a random umbrella soldier with his gas mask on. I'm like, that's hunk. That's hunk. And they nobody know. I was like, Jay looked at me. Why is he getting all excited about doing that? That's hunk. Human unit never killed. That's hunk. That's the other that's the fourth survivor. How many people survive Record City? Sherry, six, Jill, Leon, Claire, Hunk. Alyssa. Seven.
SPEAKER_08But Hunk's known as the fourth survivor.
SPEAKER_10I thought about drafting Sigfree so that the moment Nightmare gets knocked out, he just comes become a part of my team.
SPEAKER_04I don't know if I would have allowed that.
SPEAKER_01I got both. Well, the reason people are concerned about not concerned.
SPEAKER_11But I definitely could have said uh Palpatine at all because that fucker just comes back.
SPEAKER_01A movie is named Resident Evil, JJ. It's it's the essence of Resident Evil, but it's it they're not using characters. It's its own, how Zach Krager described describes it. It's its own story set in the Resident Evil universe. And there's people that are mad. Okay.
SPEAKER_04See, that trailer you sent me. Seems like a fucking Evil Dead.
SPEAKER_01Yes. Yes. Did you see the trailer? No. Oh, you'd have to. Okay. We'll have to show you. There's a progression in the trailer.
SPEAKER_11No, was that Evil Dead? That was Evil Dead.
SPEAKER_01I said, yeah, that was Evil Dead. That was Evil Dead.
SPEAKER_03Resident Evil's the one where dudes scab it it takes it on. Because RE7 fucking takes inspiration from Evil Dead.
SPEAKER_01That's Jason. That because I've watched a lot, I've watched people discuss this shit. That's how much this movie is fascinating me. Someone said, well, you can't be too mad about Krager doing that simply because Resident Evil 7 almost had nothing to do with the mainline continuity. Besides Umbrella being mentioned a few times and Timu Chris showing up at the end. Not only that, but that was not Chris. That fuck was that.
SPEAKER_03That was the start of the connections with the Ben and last three games. Yeah. Yeah. I love how Mortal Kombat song was my second favorite. I wanted this. I wanted this.
SPEAKER_04That's how you don't have a miscellaneous hour.
SPEAKER_03Look, look, look. My three favorite video games, franchises that I will play non-stop. I don't fucking care. Mortal Kombat. Okay. Resident Evil. Yep. And Pokemon.
SPEAKER_01Resident Evil's one of my last ones standing. Metal Gear. No. Elden Ring's still around. The Souls games are still around. Metal Gear's dead. I'll never get that again. Your guy left. He did. He's making games about Amazon delivery in the fucking apocalypse now.
SPEAKER_03Look. Damn it. That's grand. Look, look, look.
SPEAKER_08Pokemon just has 30 years. Resident Evil's having his 30 year. I don't know what's Mortal Kombat.
SPEAKER_00Yeah.
SPEAKER_08Okay. I didn't know.
SPEAKER_01I haven't seen you in a year.
SPEAKER_08It hasn't been that long.
SPEAKER_10I don't think I've seen you since my birthday last year.
SPEAKER_01No, because we played fucking DD.
SPEAKER_10No, that was the last DD game was my birthday last year.
SPEAKER_01We're due. We're oh shit, Jay. We're due. The draft. Oh yeah, the draft. It was the draft.
SPEAKER_08Yeah, I got click. I still own 20 bucks.

SPEAKER_01You still had but you keep yours.
SPEAKER_10You were second place. You still had mine. I have my money and Nate's money. He hasn't paid me in case he hasn't paid me. You can give him the money when you want. That's weird. Dean hasn't paid. No, I keep telling him and he won't.
SPEAKER_01I told him to give me 20 bucks. It's only 20 bucks. It's not like it's breaking the bank. I just keep like, I'm out in my own world, but that's me all the time.
SPEAKER_05He's holding a hostage for that.
SPEAKER_01Oh yeah. That's that's well, no. What do you think? Uh what do you want Requiem's DLC to be? Because there's gonna be DLC. They just had a free update that's fucking mercenaries fucking. Yeah, but Leon must die. Yeah, Leon must die. No, because they're a story DLC, because if people don't get Ada in the DLC, they're gonna riot. They're gonna fucking riot.
SPEAKER_03Honestly, I can see it being Ada, Chris, Claire.
SPEAKER_00Mm-hmm.
SPEAKER_01They're probably gonna do one for Grace too, though. I thought I'd hate Grace, but I actually really enjoyed Grace's sections. Oh, Grace's sections were often part. You know what the weakest section of the game to me was? Raccoon City. No, I couldn't. That nostalgia was hitting me too hard. Oh the orphan part? No, no, that was no. I wasn't dig the the mind when you're down in the fucking basement with fucking the big fucking the girl and you have to put the plugs in everywhere to I love that part.
SPEAKER_07I was like, God, this is getting annoying. Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom.
SPEAKER_01Putting them in all I love that part. It's like loves and hates puzzles. No, it was it's it's I love it, but it'll always the Resident Evil's classic backtrack.
SPEAKER_07Bring them over here. Yeah, take these out of here. Bring them out here. Oh my god. That's why I love it.
SPEAKER_03Like Resident. That's what I loved about those sections. Like I love the survival horror parts of Resident Evil. I was the only one. Like Resident Evil 6 is the only one where I played once, beat the game, and never went back to it.
SPEAKER_01Six is a decent action game, but it's a terrible Resident Evil game. Six is the one where it's everyone's in it, and you're all in as a shooter, basically. It's an over attack game. No, not everyone's in it. Most people have Jill, you don't have Claire. Well, a lot of people. A lot of people don't give a shit about.
SPEAKER_05Which one was it then again? That I annoyed the shit out of JJ.
SPEAKER_01Oh, the one uh seven, where he kept talking about shooter and a pussy. Yeah. He said it like 50 times. Shut up. It was funny as a bitch. Ah, Bug Pussy! Ah, Bug Pussy! Ah, Bug Pussy!
SPEAKER_03Shit, Resident Evil 7. He's watching me fight Jack with the fucking chase on. And he's like, you can't win. You got no bullets.
SPEAKER_01And I fucking knifed him to death.
SPEAKER_11I was actually kind of proud of that.
SPEAKER_01Oh, I remember you and me trophy hunting village. The time one. Beat it in three hours. You and me. Okay, got it. You know which one I hated? Lucky number seven. Get 7,777 layup.
SPEAKER_08The only like achievements and all that shit I didn't get for eight was Requiem you mean?
SPEAKER_07Are you talking about eight? Oh, Village.
SPEAKER_01I got most of them too.
SPEAKER_03I didn't do Mercenaries Mode.
SPEAKER_07No, I don't like mercenaries mode that much. I get still repetitive. I didn't do the DLC. What was the DLC for eight village?
SPEAKER_01Oh, Rose. Rose. It was where he has Rose.
SPEAKER_08Uh-huh. Yep. And I never did the knife-only one.
SPEAKER_01Oh, that's shit. I can't believe you didn't do that one.
SPEAKER_07You'd have loved that one. The whole fucking I kept dying at Dimitrask.
SPEAKER_03What is it a dragon form?
SPEAKER_01Oh, or Dragonform. I couldn't blame you. It was hard for me to get past that part. I didn't want to leave for other reasons. I don't want.
unknownYeah.
SPEAKER_01Oh, don't drag me into your castle, big vampire lady. I don't want to go. No, I want to live.
SPEAKER_03And in typical Resident Evil fashion, when they do the survival horror shit, it took me like an hour and a half to figure out the first fucking shit.
SPEAKER_01Oh no, your favorite part of village was House Beneviento. Fuck that house. That house. That was where the baby was. Well, I got to the point. Terrified. He should play that shit in VR. No, no. I got to the point at that game. I figured it out where I did not have to look at that thing at all. I want to go back and I don't I didn't see it. I want to go back and watch him play the first time he played that because you're just going down the hallway and it's dark and it pops out at you. He probably was like, Nope. I literally paused the game and say, What the fuck is that?
SPEAKER_08No.
SPEAKER_01It's not even like it's scary. It's just it's mm-hmm. It's just unsettling. You know how it kills you? It eats you. Yes. It's with the girl. It eats you. Oh, just bites your head off.
SPEAKER_08Damn. Dude. Fucking personally romantic you? Yep. Just bites your head off. Picks you up one hand and bites your head off.
SPEAKER_01And it's depressing though to just a little mutated little girl. Play with me. Play with me. Oh fuck. No. She says, let's play. Let's play.
SPEAKER_08And then he gets her hand trapped off in the elevator. Yep. Yep. Yep.
SPEAKER_03Oh god, I'm 100% recreum.
SPEAKER_01You know, I can I'm surprised though, because there's a lot of people that tell me though that Raccoon City, as nostalgia-baked as it is, is one of the weaker parts of the game. A lot of people tell me. A lot of people feel the same way. Me, I'm a freak for nostalgia, so it's a little different, but I can get it. It's like, yeah. I didn't know. The first part I didn't really. The first part where you're going around the city. No, when you got the RPD, I was like, yeah.
unknownYeah.
SPEAKER_01And they brought back Mr. X. Did you see Tofu? Mm-hmm. Jay's like, what the fuck? You go down and he's like, fool. It's just your reaction. Did you see Mr. Tofu? I'm like, why is tofu tofu canonically survive Raccoon City? He's another surviv.
SPEAKER_09Yet they don't count him.
SPEAKER_01It's what it exactly sounds like, Jay. It's a tofu. You play as a tofu. Yeah. That's has a hat, a beret. Yeah. That's obvious. And there are so many rumors that Hunk didn't die. That was a clone. Because if you go back to his body, he's gone. I was like, hey, kill Hunk. Ain't no way.
SPEAKER_08And he's got the same thing Leon had.
SPEAKER_01Yeah. Dude, when Zeno first showed up. Well, that's the point. In Requiem, all the survivors of Raccoon City are infected. They're all slowly dying. Leon has it. Every survivor has it.
SPEAKER_03Fucking when Xeno first showed up.
SPEAKER_08I'm like, is that Wesker? I was like, how the fuck they break back Wesker? What? And then Xeno. And I'm like, fucking Xeno.
SPEAKER_01Oh, fucking. Oh god. No. And at the end with Gideon destroying his whole existence. You're just a cheap sloppy. Imitation. I'm like, oh. And then decapitates him. Because I'm like, that's Wesker.
SPEAKER_08That's a clone of Wesker. Come on now. Like, stop it.
SPEAKER_06Yeah, I'm looking at him.
SPEAKER_01That's all he is. He is a tofu.
SPEAKER_05Nemesis or whoever.
SPEAKER_01He's literally a fucking tofu. That's his sister. I played it. I fucking played it. It comes in different colors.
SPEAKER_06No, wait. There's different versions. Yeah.
SPEAKER_08Tofu family. That's Flan.
SPEAKER_01Oh my god. Let's see. What else? Hey, do you remember the part in the fucking I told you about that? Message you about this, or down in the lab, Umbrella's lab, because every wrestling gotta have a lab in it. Where you're you're I'm walking through this area and I see a bunch of exploding cans, and I'm like, the what? I hear a bunch of shit and I don't see shit. I'm like, I look up. Oh. There's about 10 liquors on the fucking sound like, oh. It was like, oh.
SPEAKER_08Being that part on insanity was a little bit little difficult. Because that's when Leon get the fucking purple screen and all that shit. I'm like, bro, he's sick. So I shot one of the fucking things growing up. And then that happened. And the liquor's got me.
SPEAKER_01And I'm like, you mother. And whatever you do. Dean's favorite zombie? Yes, liquor. Whatever you do when you beat the game, you always release Elpis. Never don't. Never don't. You get the worst ending known to man. I never got that ending. Leon gets his head. I know Leon dies. I know. I never got that ending. You would if there was a try. I don't think there's a trophy or achievement for it. No. See, so I don't have to. Aha.
SPEAKER_08I would like my first playthrough. I was like. How I got the canonical ending is we get to that point and I'm like, that fucking what happens when I release it? Hello. You're like, it's the thing. I'm like, and that's when I looked at the achievements.
SPEAKER_01I'm like, well, I don't have to fucking do the other one. I don't want to. I don't know. I cheated like a motherfucker. I heard I heard him. It's like the bad ending, Leon dies, me when I get to the choice. What's the good ending? Leon ain't dying. Okay. I cheated. I'm like, no, my boy ain't dying. Yeah, he ain't going out like that. He ain't going out like that. Hey, no wait.
SPEAKER_05Well no, I definitely didn't watch this trailer.
SPEAKER_01But Resident Evil.
SPEAKER_05I'd have seen that thing in the fucking sewer. What the fuck is that?
SPEAKER_01The thing in the sewer? Yeah.
SPEAKER_05Oh, that's Laura that's Harkin.
SPEAKER_01That's Barr Harkin down there. I'm from Matt. I I message him like Matt, the best comments on these trailers. What the fuck is Barrett Harkinen doing down there? No, or that's Mr. XXL. Thing that comes out the goddamn house.
SPEAKER_02Me. Oh my god. Did you see the trailer for that Resident Evil movie, did you?
SPEAKER_01No, we didn't. I'm gonna pull it. I'm not gonna put the sound up, but I never watched the trailer for Mortal Kombat. That's probably it's not a bad thing.
SPEAKER_03I like going into stuff without lying, right?
SPEAKER_11Yes.
SPEAKER_01So maybe I won't show you then.
SPEAKER_11Yeah, but I I am definitely that guy for this group.
SPEAKER_10I won't show you that. He didn't watch Dune, so he's not gonna know Baron Harkin in anyway.
SPEAKER_01No, not no, just to get his input on the trailer, but if you don't want to see it, no, he gets what I'm saying, though, because it's an it's like an Ethan is the main character.
SPEAKER_07Yeah, I got he's a medical courier.
SPEAKER_08I got no problem with that. It's my problem with the original Resident Evil movies, is like that series, yeah, is they made Jill like look like a fucking worthless bitch.
SPEAKER_01Nemesis wasn't nemesis. Now, she Jill looked perfect in Apocalypse. I'm like, that was but it wasn't Jill. Oh, I don't know. That was Jill. I love that. I actually like that Jill. For context, people he's clapping, he's not having a special time. Again, I told you those are childhood movies for me. So those movies are just I re-watch them a lot. They're stupid fun. They're just stupid fun. I just never liked them. I'm surprised Jay ain't fucking saying yes, and your Mila Jovovich vibe bias.
SPEAKER_04It had nothing to do with her being Serbian. It just you like the way she looks.
SPEAKER_01I never found her attractive. The funniest thing, you bastard. The funniest thing though about them, if you go back and watch them, you can see where they're trying to make it Resident Evil. Like they're under the it's supposedly the Spencer Mansion in the first one. Oh, this is bad. That's not oh god, that's bad. Exactly. When you rewatch it, yeah. No. Apocalypse, the second one, is the most at least trying to be Resident Evil. Then they really start like, bro, what are we doing? They underworlded it. I enjoy the movies, but they underworlded it. I'm like, whoa, hey, oh, and they just start pulling random crap from each game and just throwing it in there randomly. Here's Leon for a movie. Here's Chris for a movie. A slightly better Leon than what than what Welcome to Raccoon City gave me, at least, but he's not there long. He's in one movie, and you never see him again.
SPEAKER_05It's it's just hopefully he didn't get to rescue any women.
SPEAKER_01No. Oh. My last thing, and we're gonna move on, because I don't know where the Resident Evil came. I was expecting it though. At the end of the game, when Leon's leaving, and he I don't know if he's seen the when he takes his gloves off, motherfucker got a ring on. I'm like, see that shit. I see that. I see that.
SPEAKER_07Yep.
SPEAKER_01And people have been some people like it's Claire. Like, no, it's not. No, it's not. It's Ada. That's the only one it can be. You leave stop it. I heard motherfuckers trying to say it was Sherry. I'm like, no. What's what you creepy fuckers? No. Yes. I'm like, Leon saved her when she was like eight. And I'm like, oh, you creepy fucks, dude. Stop it. Stop.
SPEAKER_11Why are there so many new fuckers out there?
SPEAKER_01Like, God.
SPEAKER_04Leon do the you know the new game frame.
SPEAKER_07Oh, oh my god. Oh my god. I have heard some of the I'm like, no, no, no, stop it.
SPEAKER_04She's another audio. What are you doing?
SPEAKER_07So internet's sick.
SPEAKER_01This internet's sick, man. That's a Capcom game, too. That's the funny shit.
SPEAKER_04It doesn't help. She's a fucking Android too, so she doesn't age.
SPEAKER_01There's only fucking three real can kind of three can two real candidates and one minimum for Leon. It's either Ada or Claire. Some people have said Ashley, even though he rejected her already. I prefer Ada. But that's his that's his Asian, that's his Asian queen. That's his Asian queen. Now he only got eyes for Ada. So I like Leon. He only got eyes on one one. Yeah. Actually it being Ada or Claire.
SPEAKER_05No, knowing knowing just the way my luck goes, and if I were to actually get connected to those games without living through you guys.
SPEAKER_11It would be Claire.
SPEAKER_01Somebody told me Hunt again.
SPEAKER_11I'm like, put these random ass fucking Yeah, that that that's Hun again. That's who he married.
SPEAKER_01Hunnigan?
SPEAKER_11He married. The fuck?
SPEAKER_01No, he married Chris. He's gay. He married Chris. He's gay. I'd low key die laughing though. You definitely would. I'd be on the phone with you or something. Dude, why are you calling me? They made Leon gay. He's canonically gay with Chris. Oh my god, I'm done. They adopted a child. Oh, I can't. I can't. Oh god. But no, some people did say Ashley, and I'm like, no, it can't. She was.
SPEAKER_05See, Ashley, no, I hated President's daughter.
SPEAKER_01I hated Ashley in the original game. I liked her more. They made her a lot less annoying in the fucking remake and gave her better AI. And actually, like, oh, Ashley's kind of hot now. Leon, help! Leon, help me. Well, no, at the end, I've always hated fucking uh missions where you have to escort.
SPEAKER_11Yeah, escorts. I think escorts.
SPEAKER_01That's why I like Leon so much. He got all these chicks spawning after him, and this man has eyes for just his Asian Asian queen, man. Just they're on the jet ski leaving, and she's like, you know, I can get my dad to put you on my detail.
SPEAKER_07Sorry, I'll pass. God damn, bro. Fucking horror farming that bitch. God damn.
SPEAKER_01Look at no, I'm good.
SPEAKER_07I'm good.
SPEAKER_01God damn. Where do we lead to after this? Which is probably a top 10 or something. I'm not I I expected Resident Evil. Not that much though. Holy shit. I'm surprised you haven't gone into like D, you know, your side talk for D. And you're uh that is an episode critical role. That's an episode ahead of me. Because he watches day out, and I have to wait. I wait. Day over day after. Yep. That's the one day I can talk to him a little later at work is Thursday sometimes because sometimes 10 o'clock is. Yeah, just don't leave him.
SPEAKER_04Jay's dead so I talk to you.

SPEAKER_10No, you I finally gave him shit because he opened up with Jay's dead. I'm talking to Matt now. It's like that doesn't make me want to talk to you either.
SPEAKER_01He messages me the most random shit sometimes.
SPEAKER_05Like I can message JJ anything, and I won't get a message till a month later.
SPEAKER_01Hey, sorry, I didn't see this.
SPEAKER_08I get messages all the time. I'll look at it. I hate it. Oh, okay. So down, right? I'll I hate it. I do that too. I hate having like notifications.
SPEAKER_03So I'll be like, I'll remember to get back to it.
SPEAKER_01You too?
SPEAKER_03Yeah. Me. Nope. I'll remember to get to it and then I fucking.
SPEAKER_01See, me and you are similar in nature. If this fucker won't let you live it down though. I just keep sp if you if you ever seen me on my phone in like a movie, especially when I'm. I'm angry at you. Especially one of those.
SPEAKER_08But the motherfucker will literally look at his phone, watch it ring. But you do it to him.
SPEAKER_02Uh-huh.
SPEAKER_08Me.
SPEAKER_06Bastard. I just mute him.
SPEAKER_05Oh, that's the that's why I'm enjoying our Friday movies, because my notifications are still off after the movie.
SPEAKER_11I forget to turn everything back on, so I just I generally keep my phone on silent.
SPEAKER_01That's why I don't message you after a certain time. So you mute me at certain times. I'm like, I know the time, so I just stop. So I'm like, 10 o'clock.
SPEAKER_10I finally got him to learn not to message me on Tuesdays.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, I finally did learn. Oh yeah, that's movie too. I'd get a very late response. Why do I do this?
SPEAKER_08I message people when I think I got something to say.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, how was our draft? Or when you got a draft? Or when you got a new trailer in uh new trophy in Resident Evil.
SPEAKER_00Oh.
SPEAKER_01Message you when you have something to say. How is our draft? There is the question.
SPEAKER_10You see they released McManus?
SPEAKER_08Yeah. I forget I have a phone sometimes.
SPEAKER_01I still want to call you on the actually like call you call you and see if you still answer with the hostage funeral home.
SPEAKER_03If you're gonna say say right, it's an hostage funeral home, you stab, we grab, how may I help you? And I only do that with random numbers now. Now we can work to call them.
SPEAKER_06I only think technically the last time me and JJ had sort of a conversation with New Year's.
SPEAKER_01Hey, that's not bad for me. That's not bad for me. I'm surprised he's coherent on New Year's.
SPEAKER_02Was I working New Year's? I think so. I think I was working the bar. Oh wow, it's coherent. Did you work weekends or no?
SPEAKER_08No.
SPEAKER_01Sometimes you do the bar, baby.
SPEAKER_08Saturday night. June I'm gonna be covering Saturday night.
SPEAKER_06Oh, you're gonna make him feel bad now, aren't you? You're gonna tell him when he last messages you back.
SPEAKER_10No, the fun no, I'm gonna tell him the last time you messaged me before the draft was. It was funnier because you were all there, because I just texted him be better, and he was confused, not knowing that I was with Dean, and he was telling him that you were dying a lot in a video game.
SPEAKER_01I wonder what game it was. It's ready to evil, wasn't it? It probably was. No. Be better. It probably was. That was Requiem. No, no, no, it wasn't Requiem.
SPEAKER_10No, the other time with the time before that you messaged me was you getting that random email with my name.
SPEAKER_11Still AI. No, I thought I was the random one, but this guy just can randomly pop into your life. Yes. Hello. Hi, who Dini?
SPEAKER_10I stand by what I said. The only thing that has your email associated with me is NFL Fantasy.com. You you can't say who Dini is our short friend.
SPEAKER_00I um I had an in the bad, but you know, it's funny.
SPEAKER_08I'm also the one in the middle of Amkey fucking yellow down, I need an adult.
SPEAKER_03It's funny because it was made for you.
SPEAKER_01You missed your first Amkey in a long fucking time. I'm like, what the fuck? Yeah, he doesn't go when you finally find Ryan. Yeah, hey Ryan's hilarious. It's like Ryan, there he is, I found him. But he wasn't dressed as a far-fetched.
SPEAKER_10He did one one day, one day, one day.
SPEAKER_06I think that's why we didn't why we found him this time.
SPEAKER_07And he handed me my Ivy Profe and he gave me drugs because I forgot about his house. That was funny of the bitch.
SPEAKER_01Oh my god. Well, I guess we should do our more top ten Mortal Kombat characters. I'm very curious of Matt's.
SPEAKER_09He drew a robot.
Top 10 Mortal Kombat Characters
SPEAKER_04That's a decent lying saying this is bullshit. I don't know if it has thing to say the entire time we were talking about Resident Evil. Oh, I don't know if his well, I know his list.
SPEAKER_01He said he had the four, so I'm not sure if he's talking about the top two and then the other eight names. And then the other eight names. Mine's pretty similar. Alright, number 10. Do we got a roll? No, it's the opposite order, so you go first. I go first. Yep. Okay, well.
SPEAKER_06I'm okay with that. But it just means that the last guy you hear isn't the most interesting.
SPEAKER_01Number 10. I'll go last. No, I'll go last. So we'll go counterclock horse then. 10 I got. 10 I got Sub Zero. Be Han. I guess maybe slash noob sidebox. I like noob too, but kind of it's it's original slip, so it'd be it'd be noob sidebox too. I just sub zero's one of my more favorite names.
SPEAKER_07He's 10, so he's a little lower than most people. A lot of people probably have him higher. He's one of the popular ones.
SPEAKER_01But noob has one of my favorite fatalities. I love his shadow. Grab the leg, pull apart. Love it.
SPEAKER_07Love it.
SPEAKER_01That's not something I'll throw noob in there too, because it is the reserve also zero. JJ probably can. That's lower for no, he might even be on JJ. Who knows?
SPEAKER_06Next. I I feel weird for my mouth since we discussed it earlier.
SPEAKER_05And I didn't know shit. I was thinking, oh, I just like her looks. Deborah. Deborah's cool.
SPEAKER_11I I sucked playing as her, but I loved her aesthetics. The dice. I dropped the dice.
SPEAKER_1018. That hits. Who says you? 10. So all the mine are based on character concept and how it they look in certain areas. So my 10 is Jax.
SPEAKER_01It's a quality pick. Is that your 10 too? Yep.
unknownGet the fuck out of it.
SPEAKER_01Giant robot arms. Jax is number 10. I'm surprised they killed him, but he'll be back. He'll probably come back somehow. They're gonna go get everybody. He didn't lose his head. Yep, he didn't lose his head.
SPEAKER_06Just look he didn't he'll be brought back, but he's probably in another room somewhere. That's kind of what I was hoping they would do with Cole.
SPEAKER_01Nine. Another one at nine's katana. I like it. I like katana. When what was my favorite? Oh katana's JJL no M her MK9 design. Fucking Gooner City. Gooner City designs in nine. Oh my that was the entirety of nine. Gooner City! Gunar City! That makes sense. That makes sense.
SPEAKER_04Oh, and her fucking titties jiggle when she j this one's also kind of a joke.
SPEAKER_09Well, more so for him because he wanted to say it.
SPEAKER_02I love dragons. Onaga. He wanted to say it for a different reason. Onaga. Is that all he got?
SPEAKER_01Onaga Dragons.
SPEAKER_05Okay. Well, d there wasn't really I mean, Onaga had a whole story built around him, but nine Baraka.
SPEAKER_01Yes. Yes, yes. Nine Fujin. Okay, okay, okay. That's a good one. Why Fujin? I like his design. Okay, that's a good guess.
SPEAKER_05That's kind of how our lists are the inigrate does guys. I like his design. I like her design. I'm gooning after that one.
SPEAKER_01I goon, that's a good one. Like a story too, but I had to mention goon.
SPEAKER_03And like the last time Fujin was playable, like he was fun to play.
SPEAKER_07Was it 10? I think he was in 10. No. 11. 11? Yeah, oh yeah.
SPEAKER_06He was fun as fuck to play. It's the only time he's been brought back, isn't it?
SPEAKER_09In the new timeline? Yeah.
SPEAKER_10You forgot to do the thing for drafting play and drafting the teams.
SPEAKER_01Oh no! You're supposed to choose your fucking in a real dark, dark fucking deep tone.
SPEAKER_06Let's see if he remembers how to end it.
SPEAKER_01Oh yeah. Age? Rain. I got rain. One of my favorite ninjas. Purple, because I like purple, and I'm sorry every time I pick him, me. Purple rain. Purple rain.
SPEAKER_05Isn't that kind of his theme song, too? No.
SPEAKER_01He was a joke character. He wasn't even Wasn't he a glitch? No. There's no some of the ninjas are glitches, aren't they? That they just made into characters because they're color swaps.
SPEAKER_08Ermack. Ermac. Everybody thought he was a hidden character because in the original arcade it said Ermax, which were Era macros.
SPEAKER_03But it said it like right by the reptile fights. So everybody was like, who the fuck? Ermac.
SPEAKER_01They oh. If I remember him, I gotta mention that too. I forgot what katana, but we've pretty much seen it in the fucking movie. But with rain, rain got one of the fatalities I fucking thought was funny. It wasn't bloody, but it was a newer rain. It was a newer one. He basically he just fills you up with water until you blow up. Nine? He makes you fat as a bitch and you blow up. Nine? No, it wasn't nine. It wasn't nine. It was a newer one. It was a newer one.
SPEAKER_07It's a newer one. Maybe I don't know. I don't remember what games these fatalities are in a head, but every fucking game's.
SPEAKER_01But he blows you up and he becomes fat. It's funny as a bitch. Sector. Oh good. That's like a big thing.
SPEAKER_05I don't know what it was so appealing to me about the cyborg ninja that's like the missiles launching in the chest. The movesets that you could spam with him were kind of cool.
SPEAKER_07Oh yeah. Red boy.
SPEAKER_09Which was the only way I could actually fight in Mortal Kombat games most times is spamming. I remember.
SPEAKER_04No, you guys were too damn good at the goddamn combo, so I'd have to figure out one thing that was fast enough to fucking get him.
SPEAKER_10Mr. Boomerang had himself kung mao.
SPEAKER_01Another one of my favorite fatalities.
SPEAKER_07Drags you across that fucking saw hat.
SPEAKER_04How'd you feel about that in the movie? I like that they did it though. I'm like, ah! There you go.
SPEAKER_01They did the fucking buzz saw hat. Cabal. A good quality choice. I like I actually thought he had a cool design in the first portal, cuz he was in there. Yep. Yep. Now, I'm a little mistaken on Cabal Lord, though. I was gonna ask you, because I know he's all was also Black Dragon with Kano. Yep. Has he always been bad, or is has Cabal been good too, or is Cabal switches all the time? I don't remember his lore that well. He was a bad guy in the movie, but I think he changes all the time. I could have sworn he's a good guy in the game sometimes.
SPEAKER_03The only time I can remember him being a good guy in the game is MK9.
SPEAKER_08Yep, yep, yeah. Because he was Stryker's partner.
SPEAKER_01Who got Stryker on their list?
SPEAKER_05I almost did. God damn it. I almost did. He was gonna be an honorable mention. I just like the joke about him.
SPEAKER_01Police brutality coming up. Like, oh my god. I couldn't play for crap with him, but police brutality coming right up. Oh my god.
SPEAKER_05Oh shit. That was the main reason for me liking him, too, is just the jokes.
SPEAKER_01Yep, yep. Seven.
SPEAKER_06Seven on you. Yep. I believe so. Yep. It's too easy to lose track.
SPEAKER_01I got Scarlet. I liked Scarlet. I do too. I liked Scarlet. Scarlet was one of my favorite new ones. I was like, a new character? Again, she debuted in Gooner games. She was barely wearing anything. My seven didn't debut as Gooner. But I liked her fatality too. Oh, she had two good ones, but I liked the one where she had the blood vines come up and grab you, and she cuts your gut and she was laying bathing in your blood and shit. I'm like, it's a good one.
SPEAKER_07Like that one.
SPEAKER_01Well, she was one of my favorite new characters. And they bring you might get that in your Evil Dead movie. God. They bring her back a few times because she was in nine. And eleven. She was in eleven. Yep. Was she in one? No. Because they did bring her back. They bring her back. You know they're at least kind of popular if they bring them back. Because some of you see you once and you never see them again. Wait a minute. But Rita was in two, right? He was in Deadly Alliance. Deadly Alliance. Armageddon, probably. Everyone was in Armageddon.
SPEAKER_03And he was DLC and MKX.
SPEAKER_01So okay, I'm good then.
SPEAKER_06Seven?
SPEAKER_02Yep.
SPEAKER_06As I mentioned, she she wasn't a gooner. Shiva.
SPEAKER_05Not really. No, Shiva. Certain people might go her. Shiva?
SPEAKER_01Oh, she was in the Gooner game. She was a nine. She was in the Gunnar game. She's a big strong. She wasn't. No, she wasn't really proportionate. Caked up. Yeah.
SPEAKER_11Like muscle mommy, though.
SPEAKER_01Like caked up's also a muscle mommy. I'm not getting into this. No. God, Jesus Christ. Yeah, I got certain words to cue you.
SPEAKER_10This one's just higher up because of the movie version, Kano.
SPEAKER_01Mm-hmm. Just the movie version?
SPEAKER_10Yep. Just the movie version.
SPEAKER_01So some good fatalities for Kano, too.
SPEAKER_08Cyrax.
SPEAKER_01Oh the yellow boy. Yellow robot boy.
SPEAKER_08I love you hitting motherfuckers with the net.
SPEAKER_01Cyrax and Scott. I think Cyrax was good. Sector was bad.
SPEAKER_02Yep. See, I got that right. I was like six.
SPEAKER_01Jade. Another one that was in the Gunnar game. And the way she celebrated by sliding down the pole, I'm like. Now he's having his good time. Yep. So they knew what they were doing with Jade. They knew exactly what they were doing with Jade. He's gonna go that way in the draft.
SPEAKER_11So I'm just gonna draft my women.
SPEAKER_01I I thought what was see, this is stuff you you I trust you more for. I don't remember. What was Jade's first game? She's older. No, Jane's been around a bit. Yeah. I thought I saw in like two or three ones. Yeah, Jane was in the arcade, I think. I remember the green. I thought it was two. It was. She was a hidden character. Yeah. Yep, she's old. Okay.
SPEAKER_08Same with Noob Sabot. And smoke.
SPEAKER_06They had to do certain things to unlock her.
SPEAKER_01Y'all just make them play as her. It was just a hidden fight.
SPEAKER_00Yeah.
SPEAKER_01I'm just thinking now about how fucking I'm calling it paused again. He can't.
SPEAKER_08Look, look, hold on. Can anyone of y'all name the new the hidden fire?
SPEAKER_02I haven't played the game, so no.
SPEAKER_08His name is Floyd. Is he pink? Yep.
SPEAKER_01Floyd. Oh he's a he's a ninja. Yep. He's gonna be the character when I better.
SPEAKER_02He better have a theme song. Say your number six. Number six? Reptile. I've always liked his theme.
SPEAKER_08His moveset? Not so much. I love his moveset. Damn, spoiler. It's not all the same though.
SPEAKER_02Oh fuck.
SPEAKER_06As the sixth god. He had some simple. Or wasn't he the fifth?
SPEAKER_07He had some simple books on fatalities. He can just shock you till you blew it.
SPEAKER_06I'll find a hilarious Dean's face. Yeah, who's that handsome fucker up there?
SPEAKER_01We found Floyd. My god.
SPEAKER_11I do like they gave him rock music entrance.
SPEAKER_01Oh my god. Who'd you say? Kenshi? I like Kenshi. That's another top-tier fatality. Where he lifts you up and spinning the sword and watch your blind swordsman, huh?
SPEAKER_08Oh fuck, she should go five.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, he's probably in most people's top, but Scorpion. Scorpion's fine. Design's great. Fatalities are great. Man takes his fucking hood off. He's a skull, he's a skull.
unknownFire.
SPEAKER_01Utters the most iconic line in Mortal Kombat. Get over here, bitch. Character that if he wasn't in a game, people would riot. Sub Zero and Scorpion. He wasn't in three. And people got pissed.
SPEAKER_02Five? Yep. Light one.
SPEAKER_08A petitif. God bleed my head a patty chief.
SPEAKER_01I I kind of wish he had.
SPEAKER_09Is he in the new one?
SPEAKER_01Did he get a reboot?
SPEAKER_07I don't think this last time he was in the game was 11. Yeah. He was DLC. Yep. He was in there. I know he was in recently.
SPEAKER_04Wait, he only got DLC? Oh, what the hell?
SPEAKER_01Was he a main in?
SPEAKER_04He was a main in nine, I think.
SPEAKER_01Yep. He was a main roster in nine.
SPEAKER_06Why don't I have a one? That's gonna bug me now.
SPEAKER_01Goro. Ah yes. Prince Goro. He's over there on a team. That's how long. He's over there on a team.
SPEAKER_05We've been sitting in that post.
SPEAKER_01Not Alpha. He's getting sick as Ryan brings it up too, everyone. So it's like he's like he's getting.
SPEAKER_05I can make all of your fights harder. I do that for myself.
SPEAKER_01I do that for myself. Number five, Ermak.
SPEAKER_07Hey, hey, hey. Shout out to one of Urmac's fatalities where he shrinks you down and just steps on you and rubs his foot.
SPEAKER_02Oh man. Number four.
SPEAKER_01Oh! One of my mains in Mortal Kombat 1. Melina. That's one of my mains in Mortal Kombat 1.
SPEAKER_07That's she is the that's just my that's my little nasty kink woman right there. That she's she don't take the mask off. What? She takes the mask off at the Ugand. Oh shit.
SPEAKER_01Her fatality. Oh yeah, no, she was in Gooner game. Goonin She had the most revealing outfit in that game. Big titties, barely anything covering the nips, and her frickin' going right up her ass, and I'm like, song, and I'm like, bro. Or was this game, bro? Where she was wrapped in nothing but the bandages. Yeah, like Gooner fucking. I like how you're agreeing. Like, no, that was like the most Gooner fucking Mortal Kombat. They knew what they were doing. They knew what they wanted. What's a Molina fatality? Oh, simple. Cuts your head off, she takes her mask off, and she munches.
SPEAKER_07You knew what you wanted.
SPEAKER_01Oh, yeah. I'm going out happy. Yeah.
SPEAKER_05Or I said him enough. Oh, right, Joe. I love the Drunken Master. You like you like the fart fatality?
SPEAKER_11I like when it's so much like that, but it was hilarious as hell.
SPEAKER_01I like when he's bouncing on his belly and he just swooshes you. It was funny.
SPEAKER_08Fart fatality.
SPEAKER_06So as soon as he had the Drunken Master fighting style, I fell in love with it. Because one of my favorite movies is Jackie Chan's Drunken Master.
SPEAKER_02There.
SPEAKER_01One of the best designs. I love it. I love Noobs. I always will. They did that really the Cybot card really well. Oh yeah. Sindel. Very quality choice. Quality choice. Simply because I I think she got done a little dirty in the movie. Like, damn, you know, Sindel is a good one. MK11. MK1. I respect Cindell. That's the resident MILF of Mortal Kombat to me. So I love one and the only. Matt Houston didn't make comments.
SPEAKER_11She also had thickest fucked thighs throughout.
SPEAKER_03I forgot how much horror dogs may are.
SPEAKER_01You might have insulted Dean Mayer. I wear my number one Gooner badge with pride. Oh, you in that one too. He can't. I give Jay credit. There's only one person I put in my tier, though, and I work with them. And I didn't pick a female character.
SPEAKER_11Oh, what's a good kind of sad that the one female character that made my list makes me Sandella had a very simple fatality.
SPEAKER_02And the other one makes me a fucking weirdo. Head blow.
SPEAKER_01Nope. What game first? Three? Yeah. I remember. Oh, Reptile. My favorite, my favorite ninja. I like reptiles, and I I love what they did with him in one. They made him so cool in one. They gave him a story. I like he can transform in the human and then his human form and his lizard form. Scythe.
SPEAKER_07God saying that name is.
SPEAKER_01But I love reptile. Reptile's really cool. I just couldn't play as him. I was decent as him. I was decent. I wasn't perfect, but I was decent. I was decent.
SPEAKER_03My main in that game was smoke. Smoke.
SPEAKER_01I never have a main. I have a main in every game. I know you do. It's different in every game, eh? Except for one.
SPEAKER_08Not one.
SPEAKER_01You made your list.
SPEAKER_08Oh no, I'm saying my main in the game.
SPEAKER_04Yeah.
SPEAKER_08And the first Mortal Kombat it was Johnny Cage.
SPEAKER_05I mean, there's one guy, you do not change out your main. Yoshi. Tekken? Oh.
SPEAKER_02Kill myself half a time, World. Speaking of no, no. Can you guess my Tekken main? Oh, come on. Follow him luchador. Oh. King. Luchador.
SPEAKER_04Lu Kang. I fucking fire with his bicycle gigs. And I wasn't even the one doing it. It was my fucking brother.
SPEAKER_01You can spam that shit. It was bullshit. Yeah, it was. I I know.
SPEAKER_06And it wasn't even the JJ this time, it was Austin doing it to me.
SPEAKER_01Oh my god. There's only one way I can say this, name. Johnny fucking cage.
SPEAKER_08Johnny fucking cage. Number three. I gotta be specific with this one. Cybersmoke.
SPEAKER_01Damn, I ain't seen that one in a while. Holy shit. When's the last time? Cybersmoke. I know Cyber Sub Zero, Cyber. I'm like I'm like Cybersmoke.
unknownOkay.
SPEAKER_03He appeared in the end part of. He was one of the round characters you could fight in the end part on MKM1. Where you're going out the pyramid? Oh yeah. Yep. One of the right. Yeah, Cybersmoke can't appear in there.
SPEAKER_08Yep, yep, yep. Test your mind.
SPEAKER_01Alright, number two. Same. Johnny Cage. I don't have to say the obvious.
SPEAKER_07One of my top-tier most relatable characters to me, Johnny Cage. I I can't I relate to Johnny Cage. And that fucking movie is forever gonna be You and Me in Underworld.
SPEAKER_01You don't have any powers? Are you serious?
SPEAKER_07Nope. I'm just incredibly handsome.
SPEAKER_09I just love how he described himself as Jack and Coke. Just Jack.
SPEAKER_01I need glasses that just kind of mine don't fucking do the thing. I need one.
SPEAKER_05Because your uh flange is too old, though.
SPEAKER_01I'm like, fuck.
SPEAKER_05So I changed up my number too. It was gonna be sub-zero, but I was like, yeah, you know what? I kind of like her better. Frost.
SPEAKER_01It's a good choice. Frost Ape. When's the last time we seen no? We just seen Frost. No, Frost was recent. She was in a recent one. She was in a recent one. Yep. She was in 11. She's kind of a baddie. They made her kind of a baddie, too. Yep. I don't remember.
SPEAKER_04I thought they changed her to a semi-good person.
SPEAKER_01No?
SPEAKER_02Oh, so she didn't get that. Benjamin McQueen. My number two is. A lot of things. I thought there was a something. They'd be switching all the fucking time. Yeah. Never mind.
SPEAKER_01My number two is sub-zero. My number two is Baraka.
SPEAKER_06Yeah, we established that earlier in the day.
SPEAKER_03Fucking love doing that move to people.
SPEAKER_04Oh god. You know what's sad? What's the sword juggle? We expect it every time, but we still hate it. We see the poles coming and we're like, no, no, no, no. We try to block it, you can't.
SPEAKER_10He likes his he likes to do his prep people with swords. Mm-hmm. Oh, it's a Yoshimitsu reference I had a poor.
SPEAKER_05I was gonna say it almost sounded like an immuendo coming from you. That's only an innuendo with him.
SPEAKER_07It's only the M part. Favorite MK character.
SPEAKER_01Shell Khan. It's close. Him and Johnny Cage can switch, but I love his design. And I love the big badass bad guys that don't give a fuck. I'm big as fuck and I'm badass. I actually liked when they redid his character a little bit as General Shao. I like General Shao.
SPEAKER_06Even though I'm not that into experience that yet.
SPEAKER_01I'm not that good as General Shao because he's slow as fuck. They slowed him down when he's a tank. He's slow. He's a little slow. You gotta slow. Okay. And like JJ said, top tier shit talker. You suck. Oh, that fucking block fight. Nine. A fucking Gooner game. Nine. Shoulder tackle. Shoulder tackle. Shoulder tackle. Like, bro, get off of me, dog. Would you let me do a fucking combo shit? Shoulder tackle. Hammer. Couldn't do shit. I'd have to pin him in the corner to do anything. Oh, I had to cheese him too. Like, you know what I did? I just uppercase. Upper uppercut. Uppercut.
SPEAKER_05It's not a cop-out or anything because we've just seen the movie. I've always liked the comedy characters.
SPEAKER_00Yeah.
SPEAKER_05Johnny Cage.
SPEAKER_00Yep.
SPEAKER_05There.
SPEAKER_02Matt, get over here. Scorby.
SPEAKER_10Love the character, love the concept, but I love that name is basically now just the anti-hero.
SPEAKER_01Oh, the one funniest thing. I used to now I can finally put something else in the tier of beef on site. You know how I always joke about Kyogre and Groudon? Motherfucker, bro. Bihan's a lot. I'm good, bro. I'm I'm chilling in my heaven, bro. I'm good. Bihan's a lot. What the fuck you mean? Where he at? Where he at? Turn his fucking dream into a nightmare. On site. On site. And then my favorite, Braden. Braden. Talks all nice. Oh, the guy that's talking.
SPEAKER_06I could just hear that constantly from JJ if he fights it.
SPEAKER_01No, the funniest noise is still Lu Kang was fucking bites. Chicks! I don't think I can replicate that one. That one's faster than fucking Raydon's. Oh my god. Oh, Lu Kang had a fucking out of no fatality out of nowhere. That was great. I'm gonna turn to a dragon and bite you in half.
SPEAKER_08Oh, fuck that. Arcade drop. I like that one. I do too. Oh, I was so close to buying the fucking popcorn bucket. It looks so nice.
