Okay, so, I asked around a few MK fans on Youtube about the sucky scenes MK:A had to offer, and Tiiito seemed to have alot of info based on thr cut-outs of MK:A..

----
Tiiito says:

The original script, contained a few important things:

-Instead of a group of Tarkatan soldiers, Liu Kang battles only Baraka, who is decapitated in the end of the battle.

-Johnny Cage dies (but in battle, sacrifising his life so that the others can live)

-Kitana actually battles Sheeva.
-----

The original script, contained a few important things:

-Shao Kahn reveals the resurrected Sindel and mentions that he has powerfull allies in the Netherworld that helped him with this. (Scorpion and Kano are also generals as they were also resurrected.)

-A longer battle between Sub-Zero and Scorpinon, ending with Sub-Zero joining Liu Kang on his path to Nightwolf.
-----

The original script, contained a few important things:

-A longer training scene with Nightwolf, including Sub-Zero and Nightwolf talking about Liu Kang's real power.

-Jade is introduced as an actual member of Nightwolf's team, and is shown to have doubts how to win Shao Kahn and mentions that surrendering is maybe the only way of surviving.
-----

-We see New York City being destroyed by Kahn's Extermination Squad led by Rain. Stryker and Kabal are shown batteling him in a 'match' and he kills them both after a long battle (Kabal dies first from wounds inflicted in the battle, but Stryker is killed by a 'fatality' attack).

-Rain returns triumphant over New York in Outworld. We see more of Shao Kahn's plans of action against earth and how the others are doing (such as Kano is teaching the minions of Outworld how to use machine guns).
-----

The original script, contained a few important things:

-Mileena revealing more about her backstory, and instead of an unearthy creature, Jax saves Sonya from Scorpion, killing him again.

-Instead of a trio of Reptile-like Warriors, the resurrected Reptile battles Rayden, more time is spent on the actual battle with Sindel and it's even shown when Jade knocks her out.
-----

The original script, contained a few important things:

-When their plan on re-uniting Sindel and Kitana together, doesn't work, Jade flees in horror, instead of being a traitor. She goes to the castle, and tries to join Shao Kahn in fear of dying if she keeps fighting with the others. Shao Kahn makes her tell him everything she knows of their plan (and Rayden becoming human) and then snaps her neck.

-Shao Kahn gathering what's left of his generals to finish off the heroes
-----

The original script, contained a few important things:

-In the final battle; Jax battles Motaro, Sonya battles the resurrected Kano, Kitana battles Sindel, Sub-Zero battles Ermac and Liu Kang battles Shao-Kahn.

-Instead of ripping off one of Jax's cybernetic prosthetics, Motaro ripps off one of his arm.
-----

Jax continues to fight bravely, but is fatally injured in battle, Motaro is about to give him the finish blow, but Nightwolf shows up and continues to hold off Motaro.

-While Sub-Zero and Ermac battle, he releases Noob Saibot who Sub-Zero reckonizes as a fallen member of his clan. They double-team on Sub-Zero, and while he appearently fatally injures Noob, Ermac get's the best of him and manages to kill him.
-----

-Sonya battles Kano, but his new improvement is too much for her, Jax manages to sneak up behind on Kano and remove a pin from his grenade belt, blowing him up. Sonya (wounded from the battle) tries to cover up Jax's wounds they briefly mention how she finally called for help and how he finally realized his inner strenght. He dies in her arms.

-As Kitana finishes off her mother (killing her, in the script), she faces Ermac who is about to attack the wounded Sonya.
-----

-A much longer Animality battle. it's explained that Liu Kang manages to reach his animality so soon because Nightwolf is there to guide him through it.

-When the world returns to normal, the heroes still alive, go to a Shaolin Temple and bury their friends, also seen on the gravestones are Art and Liu Kang's brother (from the first movie). Raiden arrives in a form of an elder god and bids farefell to his friends, who then rejoice that the world is saved.
-----

SCRIPT CUTS = THE REASON WHY THE MOVIE SUCKED:

-In the Netherrealm, we see Quan-Chi re-resurrect Scorpion and mentions that Shao Kahn was a fool, it's seen that he's talking to Shinnok (now in his MK4 look) and how together, they will rule the Outworld, Earth and everything in their sight. The scene ends with the camera zooming out showing an army of undead warriors, including Noob Saibot as his personal general.

----------



From ME (Notices)

1. Rain, Stepson of Argus is killed
2. Noob and Sub-Zero never meets

Turn on your light and they'll see you. Make a sound and they'll hear you. If you think it's scary being lost...

Just wait till you're found

After reading all of that, I wish that they hadn't been so lazy and kept all of that.

I was OK with more-or-less everything except Jax killing Scorpion. I'm not just saying this because I am a Scorpion fan but JAX killing SCORPION?? NEVER!

Jax is a noob and Scorpion is meant to be one of the better fighters out of the whole MK cast. The only person to beat him in a fair one-on-one fight is the original Sub-Zero

In the games Scorpion realized Sub-Zero II was not his true nemesis and turned against Shao Kahn, vowing to protect SZII. Once Shao Kahn was defeated and the realms returned to normal, Scorpion was sent back to the Neatherealm.

What I think should have happened in the film is - Scorpion joined the forces of light, and at the end HE fought Noob Saibot - the original Sub-Zero and his one true nemesis.

Yep, something about the fight requiring too much CGI ended up leading to it being cut I think. No surprise there, rendering Sheeva's extra arms for a whole fight sequence plus whatever effects from super powerful moves would take ages.
