I think this is what the MK franchise needs to generate some more interest in its direction for live-actions. MK Conquest was good but due to costs it only ran for one season. Interesting cast that's been assembled here (Michael Jai White, Ian Anthony Dale, Matt Mullins, Lateef Crowder), seems more believable than the first. MK Annihilation should just be forgotten about. MK 1 had cheesy SFX as well which didn't really add much to the fantasy aspect of it. And I'm sure the producers of this trailer aren't completely resigned to one direction as far as creative input is concerned. It could turn out that there is some whole underlying "Supernatural Element". What I would like to see and I don't know if anyone else feels the same, but this meets "Big Trouble in Little China". Shang Tsung could be this innocent enough "mob boss" who is actually like Lo Pan, a centuries old sorcerer on a quest to rejuvenate his immortality. This could work, we just have to get on here like we are now, and give these guys more ideas to work with.
