cheers! :)
I love how Mileena is genuinely vexed at how humble Raiden is. Hard to fathom how a guy who blew past all of Outworld's contenders barely shows a nick of pride.
Raiden is basically Liu Kang of Mk1
And he didn’t change Johnny because he already knew he’s a good guy.
@@TitanJonklerJohnny is a man who never could be truly assertive so he hid behind arrogance and hiding his frustrations but throughout the story we see him actually engage his anger and become a better person, or realize his true self. Some people need to realize that anger is not a bad thing if projected at the right thing. Some people are just naturally more confident which Johnny certainly is, he just doesnt know it 😅
He also had to learn gratefulness, which he did when Kenshi saved his life even though they was as eachothers throats from the start. It showed him that people can actually like him for him and not just his persona.
That happened in past MK games aswell. He was never a bad guy just a very insecure arrogant douchebag😂
That's what happens when you're raised right. 😊
@@mathiasstrom7790that assessment kind of makes his (implied) divorce with Christine feel sadder, I say she was the first person shown who liked the man behind the persona
Johnny hyping Kenshi as Earthrealm's best swordsman to Sindel is hilarious and wholesome. Their bond might be my favorite in this new timeline.
You're right, I might shit on MK1's new lore/story, but Kenshi/Johnny's bromance is *chef's kiss* beautifully done.
Kenshi’s got 2 besties..Johnny AND Jax
@@hisokamorow6709I don’t rlly see what’s to shit, it’s a huge step up from a lot of previous games in many ways.
I'm glad this timeline maintained that bond. They used to be good buddies back in X.
Johnny being buddy-buddy with all the other champions is super sweet, and his bromance with Kenshi is the best.
3:32 I love how Liu Kang breaks the fourth wall and looks at us when he tells Johnny that how he wishes he made him more humble
8:01 Johnny does it here too when he mentions the cameras to Bi-Han
Would have been funny if after that the camera pans to either Geras or Old Titan Raiden saying" i told you so"😂
Liu Kang's eyes are really adorable, especially when he blinks they make him look so innocent 😊
@@JF59122 Liu Kang always been a best dude... always been a humble guy, and that makes him more adorable
@@stressedhaish69420 Yeah, true! But I didn't find them cute before he had glowing eyes, just fierce, but now, really cute!
5:02 “I’m not afraid of a ghost”
Scorpion’s VA is Daisuke Tsuji who also played Jin Sakai or “The Ghost” in Ghost of Tsushima. Clever reference
Might also be a nod to Ghostbusters
Edit: yup, the theme song
Oooh… so that’s why I kinda recognize the voice
@@PurpleWarlock😊
Or maybe it's a reference to ghost rider
Double meaning, 'Cause Scorpior IS a ghost from hell, full of revenge feelings in the first timeline. So... this is as clever as we thought.
Nitara is a prime example why voice acting is crucial for a character
“LeAsT?!”
Don't I scare you in the LeEesT??
@@mas8705
can you just stfu about it? you think NRS will be like "OH NO! ANONYMOUS KIDS COMPLAIN ABOUT VAs LET'S CHANGE IT FOR THEM, FUCK THE DLC DEVELOPMENT" like no....also Van Damme is not good either way, but you point at Megan? that says a lot about you, mysognistic incel.
But on the bright side, they broke the record of worst VA work. They somehow made Ronda Rousey as Sonya in the last game look competent.
@@Supperdude9 I can at least picture Sonya being no-nonsense and showing as little emotion as possible. Nitara doesn't have that excuse
I love that Mileena let Johnny's film crew into the palace and that she apologizes to Kenshi for blinding him. I never thought i would ever see a timeline in which Mileena chilled out enough to both be an empress and to let earthrealmers actually film there.
Her redemption arc is one of the best things about this game.
It genuinely feels like Mileena went against her better judgement. She's seen how many people are going through her palace trying to get stuff set up while Mileena, Kitana etc are just trying to go about their day.
Nitara: “I’ll be the last thing you SEE”
Me and Kenshi: 😑 Really?
BRUH 😅😅😅😂😂😂😂
With that voice, Kenshi-sama and all of us want to stop to fight with her...
Coulda hit her with something like “Mileena beat you to it” or something.
Exactly my comment at first🤣
It reminded me of the oh my god he’s dying call 911, what’s the number meme
4:09 agree. Smoke is by far the most wholesome dude in the game. Reptile is a close second.
Agreed
Wait a second, isn't Yuri also the voice actor for his wholesome sidekick in Johnny's chapter of the story.
@@lejandario7779 Don't know... but I do know that this portrayal of Smoke could be what Sasuke Uchiha's life could have been like if he had found a brother like Smoke did with Kuai Liang, one that didn't mess him up like Itachi did.
@@thomasecker9405 Ha I can easily imagine Bi Han making Smoke edgy if Kuai Liang wasn't there
Raiden is the most wholesome
I love how Syzoth in this game has developed a level of sarcasm, the line he gives to Reiko a 0:29 made me chuckle.
I like to imagine he learned it after the 'scorpion is a best' line and slowly learned metaphor from earthrealmers
@@kyleyuen245 Considering one such dialogue mentioned Syzoth watching Predator with Johnny, I can imagine Johnny's way with words have rubbed off on him.
@@MoonlightStrider SYZOTH HAS WATCHED PREDATOR!?
That feels like fan service lol
@@thunderstar7682yes and syzoth told Johnny how scary that movie was LOL
Johnny Be like "My favorite lizard is making me proud😢" 😂😂
1:43 I just love Johnny’s and Kenshin’s friendship. It’s so wholesome to know how much Johnny looks up to him and how humble Kenshi is in reality.
I enjoy how during the story, the first thing Johnny does after he wakes up in prison, is think about Kenshi.
And the voice acting sounds so genuine.
I just want to see them doing friendship just make the wholesome complete
The message was/is BROS over *OES thus a Great Adventure with no Baseless Naggin.
Foggie and Murdock combo
Ngl the best moment besides him giving Sento, is
"Whatever we do we can't hurt her"
"HER?!? I'm more worried about US!!!"
I felt Smoke's pain when Sindel laughed at him....
Worse when he GOT kiled by Sindel back in MK9 (2011), along with Kitana, Jade, Jax, Cyber!Kuai Liang/Sub-Zero, and Nightwolf
@@aleksandarvil5718you mean killed
@@aleksandarvil5718 Not to mention she killed my boi Stryker! :(
I kinda thought she laughed that she finds him cute
I find it more like she found it adorable
1:59 "dont i scare you in the LEAST?" the most emotion megan fox put into her lines
real
The exasperation there is both cringe yet fitting.
TBH. I would've kept her facial capture in, but I would rather have chosen someone else voice act for Nitara.
@@Morgan556. Could you imagine Laura Bailey channeling BloodRayne if she were to voice Nitara? That would've been perfect!
@@Spiralpaladin man that would have been amazing! By the way i would love for MK to return to it's original direction (going even deeper into asian influence like Shaolin vs Wu-Tang). Speaking of which I'd also return Nitara to her original look (the vampire and pirate aesthetic, with the kanji letters on her wings)
6:14 I love how Smoke is so honored to be in Johnnys movie.
Too cute!!
*was…
Before he learned he was gonna be a sidekick
Bro Liu Kang didn’t change Kung Lao’s personality because he was his best bro and wouldn’t change anything of him 😭😭😭
Rightfully so.
He doesn't, because Kung Lao HAD to be taught humility instead of having humility being given to him from the get go. He HAD TO EARN that humility.
@@UltramanMebiusBrave Yeah agreed. I for one *hate* Kung Lao being all arrogant. I want the man who only stepped in after the Shaolin Temple was attacked by Outworld. I want the man who forgave Goro. I want the man who even after raining blow after blow on Shang Tsung, sad alone and lit incense at Liu Kang's grave.
Writing that gave me chills honestly
@@XXMatt0040XXTo be fair, by the looks of the aftermath, Kung Lao eventually stopped being so arrogant. Though it did cost someone else's time, skills and memories.
@@zaberfangThat's usually what it takes, unfortunately.
Who knew sindel would shatter people hearts with just a laugh
Her laughing at smoke is more of amusement. Bet she finds him cute
She ain't the only one 😂😂
@@f687sNFMwho doesn't ?
FATALITY
@@f687sNFMAnd now I have the mental image of Sindel patting Smoke on the head while cooing at the ”cute little boy”. Because that’s how I imagine her seeing him.
1:09 I like how Kung Lao actually looks up when mentioning his hat.
Yesssss I thought that I‘m the only one. 😅
They've nailed the facial expressions in this game
Original scorpoin is gost
Of ful and sely wanth
One Jonny is wosr
Kinda funny how most of these are just Johnny -seriously the man is iconic XD
Dad/Husband Johnny wasn't bad per se, but OG diva Johnny is just unmatched.
@@hisokamorow6709 To be honest, that's the ONE thing I really miss from the old timeline. Johnny actually maturing was refreshing. I love diva Cage, but Johnny for once not being the one at fault in his relationship... I really dig that.
Bro did a marvel kang reference _💀_
I think it’s funny that Raiden is in fact annoyingly humble😂
Feels like a bad parody of liu kang at times
"Annoyingly Humble?", How much of an asshole are you to find humility tedious?
It was on purpose apparently
Guy breezes past all of outworlds champions without showing any confidence
And I'm 100% here for it! In a world of gray characters, he's refreshingly one-sided. It'd be really difficult to corrupt him.
Reiko: "Ready to face Outworld's finest soldier?"
Reptile: "I will be, if he ever gets here."
This foo already won the fight without landing a punch!
starting the battle with one bar up already
It burns more than Scorpion’s Hellfire
I guess Syzoth has that forked tongue 😂
His tongue is long and sharp.
Not even the elder gods can heal that burn
5:17 Johnny just casually asking if he's high is hilarious
It's also a pun: "High Mage"..
I love how Smoke and Kung Lao genuinely want to be in Johnny’s movie
"I dreamt you were sufucating under a pile of women!"
Let's be all honest guys, that's most likely how Cage would want to go.
I'm sure that's how all men would wanna go out.
I want that
So... Death by Snu Snu? 🤣🤣
@@kombatfighterforeverAs long as it's Snu Snu with the large women, the full figure women, then the small women, then the large women again.
@@moshinrafsanjani7379So, snu snu came from Futurama where one episode they introduce the Amazonians (I think they are called like that?) that are a race of big and muscular women and if I'm not wrong they call sex "snu snu" (which more often than not ended with any male dying and with their pelvis destroyed)
That's where the term came from, I believe.
2:49 Johnny took “flirting with danger” a little TOO literally
can’t say I blame him tho
😂i lost it at that part
Sad that they don’t respond back because I would’ve loved to see Shang’s reaction 😭
Took about 10+ games, but it was nice to finally have the name of Kung Lao’s hat.
I thought we all just accepted it's name was "Kung Lao's Silly Hat"
@@Morgan13174I'll still call it that
I was expecting an actual name, considering how he treats it like the greatest thing he’s ever done.
Erron Black: From one hat man to another, cool hat.
Kung Lao: It's also a weapon.
Erron Black: That's just weird Kung Lao.
Smoke: I want the HAT
Syzoth's eye roll at 3:09 makes me laugh every time
"He can be SO immature 💅"
@@jojorabbit-wz8ms😂😂😂😂
3:37 I like how Liu Kang looks at the audience as he says that
The players*
@@jasonknowsit same thing
"I would pay to see your ego fight Johnny's."
"It would be a short fight."
Excellent self-own there, Kung Lao, lol.
Smoke is just adorably gullible. XD
Having him be voiced by Ben 10 / Spider-Man helps a lot.
and Sasuke
@@syafiqjabar which ben 10 tho?
@@DJRainbowToxic Alien Force / Ultimate Alien version
2:38 "I dreamt you suffocate in a pile of women" You make it sound like a bad thing! I see it as a absolute win!
She want him
Oh please that's Johnny's ideal way to die
@@HaremArchon that's every straight man's ideal way!
A straight white man , , ,
I love how Kung Lao and Mileena's interaction is just:
Mileena: Wtf he's too passive.
Kung Lao: IKR!?
I love how 9:25 makes it seem like Johnny was doing the baseball joke and she literally just can’t understand it so she gets mad and now wants to fight him😂 I love seeing ppl get mad at that joke😂
I don't get it either.
Can you explain pls?
@@eankey1923Who's on first? is a comedy routine by Abbott and Costello. It is about identifying the baseball players in the team. Who is the player on the first base while What is player on the second base. However, due to the statements can also be interpreted as a question, this cause confusion between the two.
@@eankey1923 so it’s basically like just starting off with like “if what is on first, who is on second.” and it continues with other questions like “where is on third” etc. The joke is the person hearing it is trying to answer the questions but “who, what, and where” are the names of the players on the base, not a question.
You know you’re old when you understand an Abbott and Costello joke….
@error8119 No, no. Who is on first, What is on second, I Don't Know is on third.
2:59 i love raiden's answer to tanya
liu kang is literally Earthrralm's bodyguard
0:51 i love the The Mask reference
JIM CARREEEEEEEYYYYYY!!!!
I like how Johnny looks at us as he breaks the 4th wall
@@detestable_one I don't think he's looking. He's just copying the head move.
Well, he has MANY different references. Like the classic one from 1945 "Who's on First?"
th-cam.com/video/sShMA85pv8M/w-d-xo.html
There was also a reference to "Who's on first" by Abbot and Costello, and Toy Story when Buzz and Woody are arguing "that's not flying, that's falling with style"
johnny’s voice actor lived his best days while recording 😂
I love how Kitana is just telling Johnny about a dream she had lmao
And he would probably respond with, "Totally worth it. Best way to go."
Kenshi literally went "I'm blind Carl, not stupid" 😂
I absolutely love how Smoke is really just a bundle of wholesomeness with skill of warrior. Really counter the overall gritty and gory surroundings.
2:09 Smoke actually had me laughing with that
Smoke would definitely say "yippee" and prance around after getting the hat.
Love how both smoke and syzoth are just pure of heart
10:10 "But it can easily be reheated in the microwave of evil!"
0:12
I don’t think I’d emotionally recover from that lol 🤣
I love how in the Kung Lao mirror match intro, one of them is actually Johnny in heavy makeup XD XD XD
Literally everyone: "That shits ass, bro"
Kung Lao: "DON'T INSULT THE HAT DRIP!"
I love how Kung Lao wants to play a prank with Reptile’s shapeshifting powers.
Is Kung lao
And Syzoth was NOT having it.
10:26 even if you don't know the reference, this part is funny as hell 😂
What’s the reference may I ask?
@@Maxximum1488Silence of the Lambs.
@@vittoprincewhy are the lambs silent?
@@Maxximum1488 It’s the name of a movie, the main character speaks like how Johnny does
@@vittoprince I want to hear the lambs
Dude, you missed the funniest one!
Kenshi: "I'm not betting sento on this fight!"
Johnny: *ba-bawk!*
Even funnier with the john Claude von Damme voice lmao
Yes, everyone is friendly with each other. Which makes them seem so psychotic when they off each other in gruesome ways with their fatalities. "Oh I honor you as a brother" leads to ripping them apart with chains and leaving them in pieces or sticking a grenade in their mouths.
What's funny is that mortal kombat has always been this way. Like the time Kung Lao hunted Goro down for the death of his ancestor, an encounter that ended with a single wound on Goro's chest and the two shaking hands in solidarity.
@@Silverslate Hey hey, that was a different Kung Lao; we gotta be fair. Seriously, Kung Lao was *vastly* different back then, he was still on Liu Kang's level, at least near, but he only stepped in when the Shaolin were slaughtered by the Tarkata.
Instead of wanting to *be* the new Great Kung Lao, OG Kung Lao wanted just wanted the peace his ancestor brought. The peace Goro ended. Do you believe even this Kung Lao would light a candle of incense and meditate alone at Liu Kang's grave? Even after his ending? Because I just don't see it.
Ludonarrative dissonance
It is kind of hilarious how the gameplay of MK as a series is completely antithetical to having a story
8:49 soundin like hes about to cry 💀
Or throw a tantrum
9:13 yeah reptile your way too nice a guy now and I love it
8:40 even Johnny knows how despicable some people in the film industry are.
More precisely, as Homer Simpson calls them "Sleezey Hollywood Producers."
Almost Every celebrity knows that it’s just that the bad guys have a lot of money
1:38
Kitana: Why are you worried about the kolisseum?
Liu Kang: (Vietnam Flashbacks) ….No reason.
That's were

Universal rules in these interactions:
-kung lao's ego
-johnny's lack of seriousness
-kenshi's blindness
-edgy bi-han
-reiko bullying
heavy on Reiko bullying‼️‼️‼️
Reptile getting treated like a little brother by the Earthrealm warriors is so wholesome.
0:33 dang! Reptile is a savage!
I think he is with Johnny too much time lol
I think he is with Johnny too much time lol
0:15
that condescending laugh alone is lethal😂
Lmfaoooooo
The fact Kitana dreamt that Johnny died of suffocation under a pile of women means she thinks of Johnny in that way. 😂
I love how NO ONE takes shao seriously in this game 💀
Nobody ever did
Kid named NO ONE:
no one takes Nitara seriously either with that voice 💀
Not even NRS
1:06 Bro! The way Kung Lao watches his own hat! This game has amazing details
I like how they both agree😂 3:39
1:36 I can only imagine Liu Kang rewrote history only to spout to someone, in late 1930's, "it worries me that chancellor Fritz is building so many train tracks." "Why? Does Outworld have no logistics planning?"
Hahaha 💀
"im blind remember?"
its giving big Toph energy
7:05 Toy Story reference 😂😂😂
4:34 back to the future reference 😂
6:15 I love the way Thomas is excited About Johnny's Movie.....!!! 😂😂😂
7:39 BASED KENSHI
Considering he’s beat her before
Scorpion is always saying "Its a family matter/Only the shirai ryu can take care of Bi Han". But the one person he asked for help was Johnny???
probably wanted the money
Kuai Liang might have some suppressed pride in him that Johnny wouldn't be at risk of breaking
@@ThePatxiao I could slightly see that but money wouldnt help Kuai Liang if he only wanted Johnny's help specifically. If he got that money, he'd be paying for others to find Bi Han. Which I feel like he wouldn't be cool with. He probably only talked to Johnny because of the film that was implied
@@sophiegrey9576 I agree with you a little because no one would believe what Johnny says. He's always focused on being a star. So even if he leaked the secret of asking him, who would actually be able to tell if it was the truth or not
@@whoa4440 He probably wants money to fund the Shirai Ryu. Gotta keep the cash coming to build up his fledging clan.
1:58 the read Megan Fox gave for that line sounds like she was appalled that Johnny wasn’t more scared of her😂
See? She *can* act.
2:15 You just went there, didn't you Johnny?
9:22 i love the idea that this joke starts the fight
I can definitely see that bit ending in mortal Kombat.
Always Raiden and his Elder gods 😂
At least he doesn't consult with them this time around
just like Shang Tsung and his island lmao, some things never change
0:36 if Nitara was a villain that nobody took seriously, I would find her voice acting hilariously fitting
5:03 Oooh nice Ghost Of Tsushima reference.
God damn it that took me too long to get that reference
And Scorpion's VA bruh...
@@gabrielsingal209 Yup I know that's what I was referring to.
I think it’s also a Ghostbusters reference.
I love that Johnny acknowledges how wholesome Tomas is
I like these interactions more than previous games. Some of these interactions are tied with other characters and tell a story, Reptile dating a demon being one of the best examples.
Not to mention now the interactions are instant and we dont have to deal with 4-5 seconds of characters jumping and doing flips before talking.
Seriously, why did all the people uploading the past interaction videos not edit out the animations!?!?
I'm 50/50.
I'm going to miss the back and forth of old games. But love how it's tied to story.
Gotta get to that 10 minute mark for the paycheck
I personally enjoyed the style of the intros in X/11
But I agree that shitheads like MKFireAndIce are garbage at video editing and it was frustrating to watch on YT.
The best thing about the intros in this game is just the writing.
X > 1 > 11.
X felt real, and organic. Like two people actually talking.
1 feels storied and good, but at times, some lines feel unfinished and unnatural.
11 feels like that they created 30 one dimensional characters and didn't know what to write so they just repeated the same bullshit over and over again.
@xJC4Rx tbh, only thing I found annoying about x was that most of the lines started with saying someone's name.
2:23 Cute reference to their movie. And I heard it’s really good too
Also I love how based on the way this is edited, it sometimes feels like we’re properly stepping into a conversation that’s goin on. Practically all Reptiles lines are that
0:15
Sindel totally should have said "Sorry darling, this is a No Smoke-king area"
I don't think cigarettes exist in outworld
Smoke wants all the smoke

I love how all of Johnny's dialogue with Shao chalks up to:
"LOL you're really just a generic villain"
We can all agree that Johnny's one liners are the funniest among all characters.

Love the many tiny details they put into this game. Especially the facial expressions.

Honestly, her best performances are during these face-offs, but in the story mode...... well

It is unreal that they're willing to sacrifice an entire character just to get fanservice to Megan Fox.
Oh stop it. Ya'll complain way too much
@@JasonBaer-k3c I'd understand if she had a bigger part, but she wasn't in the story almost at all. "Sacrifice an entire character" is a dramatical exaggeration lol.
It sounds like there's something else to their complaining than actual criticism.
I mean she had a bit role in the story and she isn't a major character to the franchise like say Liu Kang, Raiden, Kitana or Sonya. This is a pretty minor annoyance
Is it even fanservice when it's that bad?
@@BloodShed4REAL Well, it was the intention... more like "failed fanservice".
I love Sindel's laugh in her intro with Smoke. She doesn't sound like she's making fun of him, she just sounds like she found the little title he came up with cute
Which is why I love Smoke, he's like the little brother of pretty much the entire cast
Yo Johhny Cage is like the Heart of the group and i love it. His Ws feel so earned. I love the dynamics of this new rendition. I LOVE that more minor folks get to shine.
0:32 Straight up SAVAGE, Reptile!
Reminds me of Liu Kang’s interaction with Kotal Kahn in MKX…!
Kotal: You will fail against Outworld’s best.
Liu: Goro, Shang Tsung, or Shao Kahn?
0:29 damn Reptile
Sub-Zero is supposed to be the cold one
"ohh a desperate need of a breath mint😰"
**later**
"ouhhshhh... Yet I thought bi-han needed a breath mint 😩🙅"
Yep, Sindel's a mother alright, that laugh at Smoke's king of smoke comment was a laugh of one.
The Kung Lao mirror match where the dialogue reveals one of them is Johnny Cage with Hollywood special effects is just fantastic.
