Have they started shooting the 2nd season of Mortal Kombat (the series) or did they cancel that show?

If I read Sol correctly, he was shocked that the show laster for year, and assuming that that is what he meant I have to agree with him. IMHO that show sucked!!! How lame... on other notes.. I heard something about a new Mortal Kombat movie being filmed in Great Britain... it will be called Mortal Kombat Domination... and somehow Johnny Cage will be in it!!?? They better get Chris Lambert to reprise this thundergod role otherwise this movie will suck worse than anhilation...------------------ "Hey you...you talkin to me?"

It sucked bad, the series and the sequel. The original movie and MK 1-UMK3 (the games) I thought were good but the Trilogy and MK4 kinda lost their appeal to me. The trilogy had waaay too many characters and MK4 had too many new characters. As to MK3 the movie, I don't know any news on it, the last I heard it was canned because Annihilation annhiliated the intelligence of anyone who saw it. That was just a giant cameo movie of nearly every single character they made. Here's Cinescape's news: quote:
Plot: Futher adventures in the Mortal Kombat universe.Status: In Development Actors: Robin Shou as Liu Kang (unconfirmed) Sandra Hess as Sonya Blade (unconfirmed) February 20, 1998 Cinescape Online has uncovered that Threshold Entertainment, the company responsible for bringing two Mortal Kombat films to the big screen as well as the on-going development of movies based on Shatterworld, Zork and Duke Nukem, may be developing an additional spin-off from the MK movie series titled Mortal Kombat Krusades. This may be the title of the upcoming Warner Brothers television series or an entirely new film for theatrical or direct-to-video release. Cinescape Online will investigate further and report our findings.
As you can see, the news is slightly out of date. ------------------ Admin at the trekbbs.com

Some more up to date news from AICN quote:
Feunrary 4th, 2000 MORTAL KOMBAT 3: DOMINATION... Hey folks, Harry here with... the glorious news about.... MORTAL KOMBAT 3.... Joy... If perhaps they actually get a script of some sort... if they compose long fight scenes that are made up of a continuous shot of major ass-kicking... well then I'd be a very excited happy boy to some moderate degree. It's just sad when there is better fight choreography in the video game than in the movie. Ya know? Sigh... Just wanted to let you know about something you maybe dont get much notice on, but MORTAL KOMBAT 3 DOMINATION is set to film primarily in London. New Line and Laurence Kasanoff are apparently known to prefer the move to England for principal photgraphy because they were impressed with the brief time they spent filming MKA there. It will be closer to other european locations they intend to film in aswell. I cant say in what capacity I am involved in the movie biz but I want to mention MK first because Kasanoff has openly stated before in various interviews and the official website (mortalkombat.com) that ANNIHILATION was not what they wanted and DOMINATION will have a more carefully constructed script and will be similar to the first movie, which was actually quite good and surprised ! many back in 95. Returning heros will obviously be LIU KANG, RAYDEN, SONYA and JAX. Ray Park is tipped to return to MK and play REIKO (from the MK4 video game), Linden Ashby will return as JOHNNY CAGE (somehow, he was killed in MKA). SONYA is rumored to DIE and the long running SUB-ZERO v SCORPION battle (JJ Perry and Chris Cassamassa) will now find its winner in this movie, my money is on Scorpion. Cassamassa wasnt in MKA becuase he was Clooney's fighting double in Batman & Robin but he will again play the yellow ninja. More news will follow as it comes in. COWBOY
