Anyway, we salute you, Cole Young, or at least I salute you.

I don't salute you.

Liu Kang, he just peaces out.

Obviously, you know, we'll get another showdown in the next one.

So, yeah, that's what I was going to ask.

Okay, so we built up to Mortal Kombat, the tournament.

You can't probably go right back to the tournament this time.

I mean, you can in a game, but in a movie might be tough to justify.

Not that they couldn't if they wanted to.

I mean, all the rules, it's like Kitana just switches sides at the end.

It's like Earthrealm was defeated and then she's like, ah!

Actually, I'm fighting for Earthrealm.

All right.

We've got another extra life put back on the boards and the Elder Gods not paying attention as usual.

So sure, you can do that.

So you think, yeah, going to the Netherrealm, just sort of bringing everyone back.

But to what end, though?

Like you're just bringing them back because you miss them and you want to see them again?

Or is there another existential fight there?

I think they're like... They already brought back all the killed characters in this movie.
