I think I remember Pan Pizza stating multiple times that he was actually working on a project and was excited to see how it would turn out. He said it a few times during his streams and podcasts, but for disclosure reasons he couldn't say what it was. I think he did mentioned it was cancelled, but never in a million years I excepted he made a Mortal Kombat cartoon made for Cartoon Network. Hell I never expect Mortal Kombat to go this route in general considering how mature the game is. This is like the most perfect cartoon for the Pizza boy to be part of and I hope we can a way to see these episodes. At least he's still working on his LOKI IRL pilot so he achieve his dreams.
Cancelling a whole, practically finished project because of an unfortunate name seems pretty bizarre though, since they could always, you know, just change it to something else. And considering how obscure that cancelled show is to this day, I don't think there ever was much of a fuzz about it as to damn it to infamy for eternity if it came out under a different name.
I’m one of Chris Casamassa’s students. For a while he used to not like talking about Mortal Kombat. Originally I had no idea why but I’m thinking this is reason. It’s all good now. He’s very happy to talk about the series. He has stated he would love to be part of the new games if they request. he’s already very busy as it is due to becoming the CEO of Red Dragon Karate and his father passing. Regardless, he’s a very great person and the best karate instructor I’ve ever had!
I also had a karate instructor that was a mk ninja people didn't believe me until I provided evidence lol, he was rain , his name is Percy spitfire brown 💯
I remember having Johnny Cage in WWE Immortals. There was this Allies and Rivals system, where certain characters would get extra stats when paired with characters considered allies to them. Johnny Cage was allies with literally every female in the game, and was rivals with literally every male in the game. Also, Raiden was apparently playable, except it wasn't actually Raiden, but Xavier Woods with Raiden's outfit and powers.
I remember when RebelTaxi shared an image of MK Ultra Girls. Took me until today to find any proof of it, and honestly, if they never release it, I'll just have to die mad about it, because it looks absolutely insane in the best ways.
@@Mr.Feather130so… do you want MK ultra girls, revived as a MK high school parody show for [adult swim]… I TAKE YOUR ENTIRE STOCK, THAT IDEA IS PERFECT (heck, if that idea becames real, they better make a crossover with aqua teen hunger force)
I was a part of the MK:FOMA community. It was fun. There was a competition where people sent in themselves as a created MK character - each entry came up with the name, design and story of their character. It was meant to go to a vote and the winner would be included in future seasons of MK:FOMA.
I want justice for ash in mk1 because Bruce Campbell and Sam rami both said they'll happily put ash Williams into any game because he needs to be in more games and Bruce Campbell even said he'll voice him
I wanna see him in too, but recently Bruce Campbell said he changed his mind about Ash being a guest in games, because he wants to see guests join the Evil Dead game. However, the studio behind the game recently announced that they won't be adding any new content to it, so perhaps Bruce will change his mind again.
It’s a shame Universal is so protective of the Evil Dead franchise. The residuals they would have gotten from putting Ash in MK would have been more than if they hired a team of devs to make another middling ED game.
The MK hierarchy (from a Mortal Kombat OG, since day one in 1992) 1 Mortal Kombat II 2 Mortal Kombat Shaolin Monks 3 Mortal Kombat 4 Mortal Kombat 4/Gold 5 Mortal Kombat (2011) 6 Mortal Kombat Deception/ Unchained 7 Mortal Kombat Deadly Alliance 8 Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe 9 Mortal Kombat Trilogy 10 Mortal Kombat 3/UMK3 11 Mortal Kombat 11/UMK11 12 Mortal Kombat 1 (2023) 13 Mortal Kombat Armageddon 14 Mortal Kombat X/XL 15 Mortal Kombat Special Forces Just my two cents... and I excluded MK Advanced VERY purposefully! But my absolute favorite MK game isn't an officially released (or sanctioned) Midway or NRS game... It's a M.U.G.E.N. game called "Mortal Kombat Trilogy Extended" (MKTX)... it's... the absolute best MK game ever made. Shout out to Cage9999!
I often think about the fact that Kiefer Sutherland straight up told IGN he did voice over work for MKX, and then nothing ever came of it. What was up with that?
@@40kanonI find it weird they made another MK show aiming at kids considering how mature and gorey the games are. Having it be in Adult Swim aiming at teens makes a lot more sense than doing for kids. Even then, I still want to see this show that used Pan's design
@@allendepacheco3419 Yeah, i feel the executives or investors of a lot of these shows where basically forcing them to appeal to everyone for the wide age range of fans without judging the IP. Heck i watched the first movie as a kid & still have the poster. Thing is though as time went by and things got more grounded in realism i can see why they'd get canned. The demographics are like young teens and kids with that one, It worked in the 90's with pixels and a million bones, now? It's so darn realistic you could really mentally scar some kid who watched this and then got a hold of the game or looked up fatalities on youtube. It's like making a GTA V Kids series with baby franklin, trevor and micheal. Who's going to invest in that dumb of an idea? I love the concepts don't get me wrong, just the higher ups only think if this is viable to market or not to as many as possible, any risks to link to an M rated franchise is just not acceptable for kids programming in modern days.
Surprised you omitted an obvious one: the original ending of Mortal Kombat Annihilation that featured Quan Chi, setting up the 3rd movie. They filmed it with a local Thai man who didn't speak any English and didn't have any acting experience but the make up work was excellent. It was scripted, filmed, and even in a few magazine publications but has never been released.
All Things Lost talked about MKA's deleted scenes in his MK Lost Media video! Tbh I just didn't have anything to say that he didn't and try not to include things notable TH-camrs have already covered.
What's wrong with Robocop being in the MK games ? Considering the over the top violence of the first two films, Murphy would fit in quite well as a Kombatant.
Fantastic video! Although I will not take any Mortal Kombat Live Tour slander. That little interview they did on some news channel is peak cringe. I live for that stuff
I personally think that we might still have ash from the evil dead in Mortal Kombat one since they could easily reuse some of the lines they just need to get rid of the army of the dead references
@@CertifiedDoomer That flew over your head, They likely agree but because of how volatile the license for AOD specifically is they're saying remove those and try to get AvED Ash or ED2.
@@MonitorLizardTV No problem. I'm a bit of a sucker for lost media stories, so I felt I'd check this video out. Also thought the bit at 28:50 was kinda funny.
I distinctly remember a list of cut KAK content from MK Armageddon posted on MK Online's forums, which included more Shokan parts and weapons for two-handed and staff stances. I can't find the thread for it, anymore, but I swear it was real, and I wish people in the MK community would cover it, sometime.
Telltale were able to use Army of Darkness's Ash for Poker Night 2 without much headache. MGM basically told them they could choose any of their franchises outside of James Bond, and Bruce Campbell didn't even know about it until the game was already shipped (hence why Ash is instead played by the "A day without sex is a day wasted" guy from Birdemic). Granted, this was before MGM were bought by Amazon, but I still have a hard time believing that Warner Bros could afford Sylvester Stallone and Jean Claude Van Damme, but not a character/franchise that a bunch of smaller game companies are somehow able to use. (Plus, who the hell starts work on something before they even have all the legal work taken care of?)
I know Activision also starts working on things before the legal rights are fully handled, as told by COD and how there are things that get datamined and then nothing comes of them (Captain America and Indiana Jones crossovers during Vanguard)
The loss of Ash Williams will forever be the worst thing in the history of anything ever, as he fits flawlessly in the universe… only seconded by the community response to RoboCop, I- I don’t get it. You can argue he’s a bad character, that’s a matter of opinion, but to say he doesn’t fit in the universe is just a weird point, he makes no less sense than someone like Rambo.
I knew about most of these (long time MK fan since the 90s), but wasn't aware of MK Ultra Girls. Being also a fan of Rebel Taxi, I would have been down to see that!
@@MonitorLizardTV I was pretty young when it was around. Either 6 or 7. I only remember very few details. I can't find the date when it was in my city either. Here's what I remember: I sat near the aisle. Maybe 4 seats away. Some characters came out and walked to the stage through the aisle at one point. There were times when audience participation was asked where we would yell out. Johnny cage dies at one point, and we have to help Liu Kang bring him back using the amulet. There were souvenir amulets you could buy at the merch table(I still have mine). You hold it up when he tells you to, and I think repeated what he said or something, and Johnny Cage comes back.
Thank you for sharing, that sounds incredible! I miss when Johnny Cage was considered so killable that he could die in front of children and there wouldn't be a problem.
@@MonitorLizardTV you're welcome. Yup, those were the days. Lol, I think it was similar to the 2nd movie. A quick neck break. Center stage. Back then, people knew what they were getting into. I just found your channel. I like lost media stuff, and it'd be great to see the full show again. I think it's considered lost media at this point.
Fantastic video. I consider myself a huge MK fan, and even I didn't everything you mentioned here. Btw, Sonia in Special Forces was very cool, so I suggest every fan to try her gameplay. Cheers
9:42 It's so weird to look back at that time and see so many movies wanted to be like Batman Begins when it only made 373.3 million which is not even close to the top 5 highest grossing films of 2005 or even out gross Burton's first Batman Might've blew peoples minds to see that well a made Batman movie again after how terrible Batman & Robin even though it's my least favorite of the trilogy
Sorry I’m late to this, I think Harley Quinn would I’ve been cool to have as dlc in that game I loved the character since I was a kid! Hopefully she can get into a future mk game
Sorry I’m late to this, I agree 100 percent with you I think Ash Williams would have been cool I’ve been wanting the character since I was 12 years old! I thought it was going to happen in mk11 and I was disappointed it didn’t. So I moved on with my life and at this point I don’t think it will happen cause it was a pain to try to get him in mk11 and Bruce Campbell said no
Maybe naming your kid friendly cartoon MK Ultra was a really bad idea, considering what comes up when you google MK Ultra and the horrible experiments and torture people went through during MK Ultras life span. The horrible stuff that we know about anyway.
I may not be a fan of Pan anymore but I would've been happy to have seen him finally have his dream come true. Always sucks to see projects with so much effort and love put into em just get canned after a couple years in development. Kinda ironic though, he finally got his wish only for the project to get shelved, on the bright side maybe it'll help him get work on another show as a character designer. Man's artstyle is great.
ngl from what I’m already hearing about the Sub-Zero solo film, it sounds like the Sub-Zero solo film would’ve been an absolute disaster, if ever made a reality
Threshold was for sure more hits than misses, and it's a safe bet to think it would've been bad. But it's also really funny to imagine a world where Sub-Zero got a solo movie before Wonder Woman, Captain America, Nightwing, or Master Chief.
@@MonitorLizardTVperhaps, but it also would've been a waste of time and recourses, if they'd actually gone through w/ making such an abomination, since any non-video game Mortal Kombat media that isn't 18+ or rated R or whatever, is therefore bound to be bad
Interesting video! Though, I don't think there was an original MK8. I think it was always going to be MKvsDC and that the stuff Ed Boon was saying about the game having all new characters meant having the DC people and that the different tone was meant to mean that the violence was getting tone down. That's how I saw it, at least; more of cryptic corporate language than a false promise.
11:50 God I love the clerks reference I wasn't even looking at my screen at the moment cuz I'm playing Mortal Kombat 1 they should have called it Mortal Kombat 12 because it is 12 but whatever and all I heard was Randall I'm like wait a second so I had to replay it to watch it awesome reference sorry for the zero punctuation if you got through this novel thank you
I have to admit, 5:42 was epic trolling on Ed Boon's part, claiming N64 graphics were "too primitve" and that it was time for Playstation gamers to "grow up and join the big boys". Considering how the N64's top selling point was that it had better graphics than any other console at the time and how Playstation owners saw their console as more "grown up" than Nintendo's consoles.
Does anyone know the song that plays in the background during the MKX Generations topic 17:33? Sounds almost like the kreate-a-fighter theme but different
Mortal Kombat Federation of Martial Arts in its extremely low-budget form feels more like minus 90% of the budget of both the first movie and the Conquest TV series, minus 50% of Annihilation's budget and minus 20% of Defenders of the Realms' budget. Wish to see an AI upscale of the ill-fated Federation of Martial Arts web series, getting it more better video quality, if anyone is interested.
to be perfectly honest, as much as I'd *love* Bruce Campbell Ash in Mortal Kombat, I do think BC would be right to be a bit hesitant to see his likeness go through modern MK fatalities...
True story: when the 3rd game first came out, there was a stage show of MK. When they came through our city, my ex gf did all of their hair for the show.
I heard from a pal’s tweet today, which she retweeted that there is some current issues or problems for the Evil Dead game. But I suggest you check it out for yourself, Lizard! As a fellow wisher of Ash to be placed in back then!
19:57 have you mentioned Sub-Zero mythology yet or I believe I have this game called Mortal Kombat Gemini I saw it sitting somewhere and I was like what the hell is this so I picked it up and grabbed it knowing that I can never play it because I don't think I have a system that works to play it on. Thank you Xbox and Playstation 4 that every system should be backwards compatible all the way from the beginning until now I mean crap I would spend an extra $100 if that was the case
32:00 I'll have you know the Backstreet Boys toys were Burger King Kid's meal toys, not McDonalds. I should know, I had Nick, AJ and Howie. Also got Men in Black toys from Burger King.

It’s crazy to think rebeltaxi worked on a cartoon from WB knowing how much he wanted to work at Cartoon Network
In retrospect, his MK video made it too obvious he was working on something
Aren’t you that guy from twitter? Funny seeing you here lmao

Thank you for sharing, that sounds incredible! I miss when Johnny Cage was considered so killable that he could die in front of children and there wouldn't be a problem.
@@MonitorLizardTV you're welcome. Yup, those were the days. Lol, I think it was similar to the 2nd movie. A quick neck break. Center stage. Back then, people knew what they were getting into. I just found your channel. I like lost media stuff, and it'd be great to see the full show again. I think it's considered lost media at this point.
Amazing video! This got me hooked on your content, I hope you grow more!
I'm a fan of your vintage (as in old youtube) style editing!
Omg im so used to the heavy accented names I read nitro as “nitaro” 😂
Fantastic video. I consider myself a huge MK fan, and even I didn't everything you mentioned here. Btw, Sonia in Special Forces was very cool, so I suggest every fan to try her gameplay. Cheers
What looks like a man skinned alive was given attention it they scrapped a robotic demon creature. That’s a felony
I’m so disappointed that ash never got into mk. Like man…..
10:49
We don’t talk about fucking second timeline Sindel
That MK Advance bit had me rollin', dude. Probably because I'm pretty high, but trust me it's funny.
God an mk soundtrack by Pharrell would’ve fucked so hard fr, I’m so mad we missed out on that
9:42
It's so weird to look back at that time and see so many movies wanted to be like Batman Begins when it only made 373.3 million which is not even close to the top 5 highest grossing films of 2005 or even out gross Burton's first Batman
Might've blew peoples minds to see that well a made Batman movie again after how terrible Batman & Robin even though it's my least favorite of the trilogy
I heard that Quan Chi and Harley Quinn were planned to be DLC in Mortal Kombat vs. DC universe but were canceled due to Midway going bankrupt.
Sorry I’m late to this, I think Harley Quinn would I’ve been cool to have as dlc in that game I loved the character since I was a kid! Hopefully she can get into a future mk game
I’ll never forgive WB for fucking the bag with Ash Williams In MK11
3:00 ironic quan chi was announced as dlc for mk1 and harley quinn is rumoured to be in dlc pack 2
I hope we still get Ash Williams.
i remember being 10 and already was a huge nerd abour MK hidden/cancelled characters and how i would recreate them in armageddon's kreate a fighter
Still not over Ash not being in MK11... Hopefully we'll see him in an MK game someday, maybe future dlc for MK1 or maybe a future game all together
Sorry I’m late to this, I agree 100 percent with you I think Ash Williams would have been cool I’ve been wanting the character since I was 12 years old! I thought it was going to happen in mk11 and I was disappointed it didn’t. So I moved on with my life and at this point I don’t think it will happen cause it was a pain to try to get him in mk11 and Bruce Campbell said no
Maybe naming your kid friendly cartoon MK Ultra was a really bad idea, considering what comes up when you google MK Ultra and the horrible experiments and torture people went through during MK Ultras life span. The horrible stuff that we know about anyway.
I'm sorry but I want MK Ultra Girls released ASAP!
Betting money that if those episodes ever see the light of day that noob saibot is gonna be an emo
@@ThivenThaddeus omg this is perfect!
@@ThivenThaddeusAnd We Need Tremor to be the School Bully
@@zer0wayne450 if Baraka and D'vorah aren't cafeteria staff, we riot
Oh damn I didn't even realise how early I am 😅
THIS IS AN EXCELLENT VIDEO
Hopefully, Ash comes back for Kombat Pack 2 in MK1
Where is Nimbus Terrafaux? Probably with Error Macro & Hornbuckle. Great vid.
I may not be a fan of Pan anymore but I would've been happy to have seen him finally have his dream come true. Always sucks to see projects with so much effort and love put into em just get canned after a couple years in development. Kinda ironic though, he finally got his wish only for the project to get shelved, on the bright side maybe it'll help him get work on another show as a character designer. Man's artstyle is great.
Well, I’m subbing. This is some interesting info
I could NOT stop laughing at this part! 30:32 Awesome video!
I find it weird that mk wasn't able to get ash William but call of duty was able to
They also got Shredder, who'd be a better fit in mk.
@@p.d.l7023 nah, it would be better in injustice like how the turtles were
Love the video ❤
Cool video dude
this videos a banger fr
I’m surprised that they were so many cancelled media here for MK. The one I find the most interesting is the MK Ultra Girls. Also MK Nitro too.
ngl from what I’m already hearing about the Sub-Zero solo film, it sounds like the Sub-Zero solo film would’ve been an absolute disaster, if ever made a reality
Threshold was for sure more hits than misses, and it's a safe bet to think it would've been bad. But it's also really funny to imagine a world where Sub-Zero got a solo movie before Wonder Woman, Captain America, Nightwing, or Master Chief.
@@MonitorLizardTVperhaps, but it also would've been a waste of time and recourses, if they'd actually gone through w/ making such an abomination, since any non-video game Mortal Kombat media that isn't 18+ or rated R or whatever, is therefore bound to be bad
Interesting video! Though, I don't think there was an original MK8. I think it was always going to be MKvsDC and that the stuff Ed Boon was saying about the game having all new characters meant having the DC people and that the different tone was meant to mean that the violence was getting tone down. That's how I saw it, at least; more of cryptic corporate language than a false promise.
To be honest id rather have arcade perfect graphics of the first 3 original games on modern systems than the "remake" of the same games in higher res.
11:50 God I love the clerks reference I wasn't even looking at my screen at the moment cuz I'm playing Mortal Kombat 1 they should have called it Mortal Kombat 12 because it is 12 but whatever and all I heard was Randall I'm like wait a second so I had to replay it to watch it awesome reference sorry for the zero punctuation if you got through this novel thank you
The mk ultra girls, sure will be something i really want to see.
A Mileena with problems of comunication
I have to admit, 5:42 was epic trolling on Ed Boon's part, claiming N64 graphics were "too primitve" and that it was time for Playstation gamers to "grow up and join the big boys". Considering how the N64's top selling point was that it had better graphics than any other console at the time and how Playstation owners saw their console as more "grown up" than Nintendo's consoles.
Great video. That MK Ultra girls looks absolutely horrible, haha crap designs haha
Does anyone know the song that plays in the background during the MKX Generations topic 17:33? Sounds almost like the kreate-a-fighter theme but different
The mk uktra girls thing kinda got me interested but why would you use frost of all character
I'm assuming they're running out of female characters that could work as students in a high school setting and Frost had type of role in MK11
WHY THE HELL DON'T THEY GET ASH WILLIAMS IN MORTAL KOMBAT ONE RIGHT NOW?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
26:27
Give this man all the money in the world
Great vid
Mortal Kombat Federation of Martial Arts in its extremely low-budget form feels more like minus 90% of the budget of both the first movie and the Conquest TV series, minus 50% of Annihilation's budget and minus 20% of Defenders of the Realms' budget.
Wish to see an AI upscale of the ill-fated Federation of Martial Arts web series, getting it more better video quality, if anyone is interested.
Subscription due to lost trigun game, this is great as well
to be perfectly honest, as much as I'd *love* Bruce Campbell Ash in Mortal Kombat, I do think BC would be right to be a bit hesitant to see his likeness go through modern MK fatalities...
Also for Mortal Kombat Legacy season 3
Eric Roberts played Bo Rai Cho 💀
@frostverseyt7814 skinny white guy plays chubby Asian character 😂
Eric Roberts really will take any job.
Not gonna lie i d watch that. I died when i saw his cameo in cable gut. Brilliant😂😂😂
True story: when the 3rd game first came out, there was a stage show of MK. When they came through our city, my ex gf did all of their hair for the show.
29:48 in the original timeline Jax never losed his arms, the metal arms are just extra equipment.
wow lost media monday
i am in man
just hoping that some lost media is just by chance not lost at all
I heard from a pal’s tweet today, which she retweeted that there is some current issues or problems for the Evil Dead game. But I suggest you check it out for yourself, Lizard! As a fellow wisher of Ash to be placed in back then!
14:24 where this clip is came from? i'm really curious
It's from the MTV series Drawn Together! Scorpion had a quick cameo in an episode when they were interviewing for new roommates.
@@MonitorLizardTV I see, thank's
Ash needs to be in an MK game.
rockin with lizards
Please make a part 2
nice
19:57 have you mentioned Sub-Zero mythology yet or I believe I have this game called Mortal Kombat Gemini I saw it sitting somewhere and I was like what the hell is this so I picked it up and grabbed it knowing that I can never play it because I don't think I have a system that works to play it on. Thank you Xbox and Playstation 4 that every system should be backwards compatible all the way from the beginning until now I mean crap I would spend an extra $100 if that was the case
32:00 I'll have you know the Backstreet Boys toys were Burger King Kid's meal toys, not McDonalds. I should know, I had Nick, AJ and Howie. Also got Men in Black toys from Burger King.
I am confident that more people bought MK11 to play as Robocop than Fujin.
