Is there anywhere where Kahn could have been for Sub-Zero to freeze him from behind a rock?

The emporer's guards would surely spot him, and I'm almost certain that Kahn would notice ice particles flying through the air towards a rock, as Subby is gathering energy.

Oh, and this has to be the main reason. The film would be a bit short. .

and that would make the movie seem really stupid....i mean, they say killing shao kahn is sooooooo hard...n then out of no where sub freezes him......sounds kinda dumb 2me

I mean realistically I would've had Sub Zero hide somewhere and just freeze Kahn. I'm talking about if all the stuff in MK:A really happened on Earth.
A And the movie was stupid already.

if kahn could turn into a weird looking animal then why not be defeated easily? if the movie was shorter we may not see more mistakes

Sub-Zero is powerful...but NOT THAT POWERFUL to kill Kahn just with.....................ice.

Even if Subby did freeze Kahn I don't think it will have any effect on him considering the fact tha he's an entity. Only raiden is capable of killing Kahn. No one else.

What are you talking about, Lui Kang killed Kahn. And every person sub zero froze in the movies they just died, like the warrior or smoke, well smoke wasnt alive but you get the picture.

Alpha? The only reason why Liu Kang won was because the Elders made it fare for liu to win. Kahn lost all his super natural abilities and was upset that he was just a regular Mortal.

What I meant was if Rayden and Kahn fought Rayden would kill him either way.

First of all, I doupt sub could ever reach Kahn. sexond, the freezing takes time. Subby didn't just shoot a beam and BOOM frozen. I'm pretty sure Kahn would NOTICE that he was being frozen and just turn around or whatever and blast sub away. Then he'd use his powers to neutralize the ice surrounding the part of his body that was frozen and he'd go there and just snap Subby's neck.
Now that I think about it, this theory is not only wrong- it's absolutely demented.

Actually he couldn't because like Subzero said the only reason Liu Kang beat him was because he was becoming mortal but if you look closely when they first started fighting Kahn was whoopin Liu's ass. Only Raiden(not as a mortal) could give him some competition. Remember how Kahn just punched Johnny Cage right out of the air while doing his shadow kick? He definetly would have a counter attack for Subzero trying to freeze him. Especially wit his whole Outworld crew with him.

OK whoever said Rayden would kill Kahn either way didn't see the movie because Kahn killed Rayden and Rayden was brought back to life.

YES I DID!!!!!! I'm saying he could. It didn't happen, though, IN THE FILM!!!!!!!!!!

shao kahn, it seems to me this, all the bosses were too weak, hell if it was like the game shao kahn would of tooken his hammer and smoosh turkey boy. to the thread, yeah sub-zero would of defeated him, because if the turkey boy can, everyone can. SCREW SHAO KAHN AND TURKEY BOY, bye bye.

'Turkey boy' is the champion of mortal kombat and the best fighter in the movies.
idiot. I hate it when you people say stupid things about Liu Kang.
I dont like him one bit, myself.
But the fact is, he kicks ass.
It takes skillz to beat Shang Tsung, Reptile, Smoke, Sub-Zero, Jade, Baraka, Sheeva and Shao Kahn.
Not anyone can do it.
But you obviously cant understand that, and never will until your brain will become a little more developed.
idiot.

Smoke would've killed Lui Kangs if it wasn't for Sub-Zero

You dont know that. Liu could've dodged the missile, then keep the fight going until one of them was beaten. You dont know wether he'd lose or not.
And so what if Smoke would've killed Liu? He still defeated Shang Tsung, Reptile, and Shao Kahn. And tons of other people. Not everyone can do that.
My point lives on.

Subzero can't beat Kahn. And Liu was only able to beat him because he had a lil help from the Elder Gods who did something to make it an even fight

If Smoke killed Liu, then Liu would not have killed Kahn . And in the end of MKA why didn't Jax, Sonya, and Kitana help out Liu when he was getting his ass kicked by Kahn, instead of standing there an watching him. I would've jumped his ass.

Alpha_Q_Up Wrote: If Smoke killed Liu, then Liu would not have killed Kahn . .

So what's your point? Liu defeated Kahn because he could, because he had the skills, not because he 'lived' to do it. You're not making any sense.

Well, with that comeback I gotta say I really have no possible argument. I guess Liu really is a wimp after all. [/sarcasm]

It is true that Liu didn't actually beat smoke because Subzero froze him, but you do have to look at the fact that Liu was "destined" to defeat Shao Kahn. Though I don't consider MK:A a MK tournament, I think if it was was Liu won Mortal Kombat again. BTW, the Jax wanted to help Liu when he was fighting Kahn, but Sonya put her arm in front of him letting him know that that was Liu's fight.

Sorry to be off subject, but why the hell didn't anyone besides Jax and Sindel acknowledge their friend Johnny Cage after Kahn and Shinnok were defeated?

I agree completely.

The only reason Liu beat Kahn was because of the Elder Gods interference in making it a fair battle. That's why

if the elder puny gods didn't appear,then Khan would've won.personaly i respect Khan because he is the image of those who seek the same power and glory in controlling all realms.subzero is not strong enough to beat Khan,not even raiden.the reason that Khan lost a battle to raiden during mka is because he was distracted.in playstation 1 i've used Khan as my fighter and i won the game,the ending was awesome where Khan sits on his thrown with evil grin.

That's Shao Kahn, not Shao Khan.
