Sonya looks like a man, she's definitely meant to be for lesbian fans.

Ugh. I absolutely hate the stances of the female fighters. They stand like burly ass wrestlers that are airing out their sweaty arm pits, and that is NOT a good look for any of them. I don't care if they are getting ready for battle. It's ugly!

I sure hope so Joe. The stances were so much better back in the MK2, MK3, & Ultimate era. Every since MK Deadly Alliance, the MK team have been giving the ladies these horrible hunched over man stances that do not suit them.

because a man probably mokaped the female stances, in the old days we had ladies playing ladies. The MK team really need to work on their motion capture, what the hell is the point in even bothering with motion capture if the animations still robotic and lifeless?

I don't entirely agree with that. Eagle Claw, Ba Gua, Lui He Ba Fa, Baji Quan, Tong Bei, Yuan Yang and Steel Fans were all quite elegant. I don't think its surprising that some of the female characters are more graceful than others. From MKDA thru MKA, Kitana has had beautiful (although not always strong) stances. I don't necessarily think that Mileena, Tanya, Nitara, Sareena or Sonya should be as graceful as Kitana.

I don't mind Kitana's stance in MK v DCU. I hate Sonya's, but I hate it on the male characters as well. It looks stiff and unnatural. To be honest, for the most part they all look pretty bad. The only one I have seen so far that I really like is Shang Tsung's.

I can't stand everyone's saying that! Ed only said that because all of the characters are from that era!

That's funny because we were never given an official time-frame (only told it's going back to similar MK2 roots) nor is the game going to be canon anyways.... SO, there is no official answer as to whether Kitana is still a ninja assassin or not.

Regardless of the circumstances does it matter whether she is a ninja assassin or not? She looks fine with a mask... it was probably her most iconic attire/appearance so MK stuck with it. Why do you guys keep insisting on crying over it? Let it go, seriously...

People are "crying" over it as you put it, because its their right to do so if they wish. What I want is people to stop being so concerned with the dislikes of others. So Professor doesn't want the mask and would highly prefer if Kitana was unmasked instead, ok, what does his desire of something have anything to do with you or anyone else? Not like it's effecting you in any way. Those are his thoughts on Kitana, the same way you feel she looks just fine as she is. So in ending there is no need to question him or anyone else who feels the mask should go just because you disagree. Most of you guys are really intolerant of other peoples opinions on things. Really sad.

I'm pretty much okay with everything in the material presented except for Kitana having Mileena's roll.

That's just unnecessary, regardless whether Mileena is included or not. Give Kitana the Pretty Kick(s) and call it a day. We have more than enough "move sharing" among the MK cast as a whole already.

I hope they pick up on the spelling mistake before the release.

I don't know why Kitana needs a teleport, and as was mentioned, why give her Mileena's roll?

I hope that she does have her tongue piered and its not just the light, i think it would be a nice touch.

First of all,the MK Team stated that no two characters will be sharing moves. For instance,Supes got Jax's Ground Pound,but they specifically said that Jax will get other,cooler,brand-new moves to replace it.

Second of all,I always thought that characters that had teleports of any sort had a huge advantage over the ones that didn't. It was especially evident in the original 2D games,where the opponent could easily corner-rape the shit out of you if didn't have some way of getting out from under the pressure. Since the speed of kombat seems to have gone up compared to the previous installments,I think that's going to be even more of an issue. I'm guessing that's the reason why practically every character we've seen so far has some sort of teleport or at least a confusion move with a huge invinvibility window. I mean,Sub has one,Scorp has one,Flash has one,Bats has one... Looks like a trend to me.

So, if Mileena happens to be in, they would give her something else to replace the roll. ...Eh. Seems kind of pointless to give it to Kitana if Mileena is in, heck, even if Mileena isn't in they could have given it to someone else...Catwoman comes to mind as a suitable fit. Could have even called it "The Furball". smile Kitana's Pretty Kick serves the same purpose as Mileena's roll (a forward-advancing attack, and it even does more damage) and is one of the 3 moves that Kitana didn't borrow from someone else. Why copy and paste when you have something original? confused

I agree with the teleport idea, though. But I think the effectiveness of a teleport is dependent on how fast it is. I find Jade's Vanishing Winds to be nigh useless because it's relatively slow. And Kitana already has an escape move (Square Wave Punch/Assault), giving her a teleport in addition to seems kind of pointless, IMO. tongue
