If you're going to reboot the series at least keep the shit that made Mortal Kombat what it is. Where the fuck is Shao Kahn and the Overworld and shit? Come on, I know the MK storyline wasn't the best and to be taken seriously (mainly because Boon is an incompetent developer), but that's what made MK what it is. You may as well have just called this movie something else and it would have had the same impact.
You don't reboot a series by changing EVERYTHING about it except the character names-- you have to have some sort of continuity between the series and the reboot.
However, I will say that the trailer is definitely graphically impressive and the storyline doesn't seem AWFUL. It still isn't Mortal Kombat though. :l
Exactly this. A hundred times this.
