New MK Movie To Double as Theme Park

Posted by Zonk on from the quite-possibly-the-worst-idea-ever dept.

The Inquirer is reporting that a new Mortal Kombat movie is in the works. Not only that, the production company plans to keep the sets up and running after the film is done, using them like a kind of theme park. From the article: "I believe there's an extraordinary opportunity to build a state-of-the-art production studio-slash-Hollywood theme park and training facility right in the middle of town. There would be actual movies being made there, and an observation platform to watch."

    I can see it now:

    Director: "Action!"

    Sly Stallone: (unintelligible)

    Some kid from the observation deck: "Hey, it's Rocky!"

    Director: "Cut! Dammit! That's the 8th time today!"

    oh yeah...I'm sure it will be a really popular place to film movies.

    Considering how much worse the 2nd movie and then the series were from the 1st, and then admitting that the orinignal movie was pretty crappy to start with, I don't even want to know what this next movie is going to end up as.

      The original MK movie was pretty good actually, as it was well-written (especially if compared to that Street Fighter travesty), the visuals were right on, and the soundtrack was excellent.
