I'm sorry, but (IMO) the screenplay for MK: A New Dawn is horrible. I respect whoever took the time to write the "epic" but it just didn't have that MK feel to it. The huge war reminded me way too much of the Lord of the Rings! Honestly, the story line was o.k. but the dialogue was aweful! The fight scenes were rushed and there was little character development. Please, if there is anyone else out there who did NOT like MK A New Dawn, please say something.... I'm sick of hearing how great it was!

no, mostly everyone liked it. It was obviously a good screenplay, hence the fact that this will actually be filmed. Regardless, I do respect your opinion.

was a whole new thread really necessary? especially one that is this negitive? anyways i'll contribute for the sheer fact that dislike it. i didn't perticulary enjoy the cheesy cliche dialouge or the strange character development. i applaud them for their effort however. just a little less cheese next time plz (whatever the hell thats supposed to mean lol).

Well thank you. I though I'd be eaten alive for saying that (guess its too early yo say that). But, nonetheless, its only my opinion and it will be criticized.
Thank you "REPTILEWINS"

Well, it was written in a way that you'll either like it or hate it; I think the screenwriter had balls to make Scorpion good and ally the ninjas together. IMO, it worked well. The dialogue was mixed; some was cheesy true, but there were some parts that rivalled that of the films. Regardless, I did enjoy it; Hopefully the upcoming mkand film will be even better.

Honestly dude.... I really didn't want to start a fight about anything. I just wanted to state my opinion and I wanted to hear other opinions of the screenplay. I wasn't going to go to an old thread with all of the people who praised the sceenplay and post my thread there. I thought that those people who really liked the screenplay would just ignore this post and I would recieve replies from others who share my opinion. I am sorry about the nagativitey of the thread.

I don't like fan fics neither, but I must say, mkand by far is the best MK fan fic online, IMO.

I loved it. Axdew loved it. Syko_Jones loved it. Mostly everyone at MKRevolution's forum loved it. My friends were in love with it.

MKRevolution linked me to it a few times but I never really read past the prologue. But today I decided to sit down with it and read it out. It isn't as bad as I thought it would be, and it's definitely formatted better than that 'preview' was a few months back, but I just don't really connect with it at all.

While there are some nice elements to it, like some of the theatrical-like presences some of the characters give the script, none of it really keeps in key with the Mortal Kombat franchise; a glaring flaw in many parts of the screenplay.

I couldn't get past the odd character development and blasphemous plot (as far as keeping tone with what the games and REAL movies have set).

I really liked a lot of things. IMO it was focused TO MUCH on the ninjas. That I didn’t like. And also the way it ended.

But overall it was very well done. 5/10

yah...i know i overemphasized with the ninjas...i took a huge risk. understand that. but theyve been screwd over so much and theyre usually the fav characters so i felt that they should be the main guys. itll be toned down in the sequel...i just wanted them to get recognition
