Dave and Spencer are going back a few years to review the start of the WB animated movies of Mortal Kombat. Legends Scorpion's Revenge is a great start off point to get anyone into the Mortal Kombat lore. Another origin story similar to the original Mortal Kombat game and movie, along with MK9 too. But it's one of those stories that I know we never get tired off and this one definitely adds some new elements to the mix as well. Bringing in the core roster of MK1 and 2 along with some other cool cameos too. With a little bit of MK4 elements too. And though it is sold as a Scorpion movie, the whole roster of the heroes of light get to shine in this tale.

With a copious amount of good gore and violence to be had along with a fantastic and faithful adaptation delivered in the grand animation style of WB's DCU movies. This may be the ultimate movie telling of the MK story.

Plot Overview:

The movie starts with Hanzo Hasashi, the leader of the Shirai Ryu clan, living peacefully with his family. However, the Lin Kuei, led by Sub-Zero, attacks and massacres the entire clan, including Hanzo’s wife and son. Hanzo is also killed but ends up in the Netherrealm, where he makes a deal with the sorcerer Quan Chi to return and seek revenge. He is resurrected as Scorpion, a vengeful warrior consumed by rage.

Meanwhile, Lord Raiden gathers Earthrealm’s champions—Liu Kang, Sonya Blade, and Johnny Cage—to compete in the Mortal Kombat tournament, which will determine the fate of their realm. They travel to Shang Tsung’s island, where they must battle against the forces of Outworld, including Shang Tsung’s warriors, led by Goro.
