Mortal Kombat: Legacy: Difference between revisions

* [[Cyborg|Cyborgs]]: Sektor and Cyrax are featured in the final episode of season one.

* [[Deal With the Devil]]: Shang Tsung goes to Johnny Cage, promising that he can get away from it all.

* [[Doing in The Wizard]]: Not to the extent of ''Rebirth'', but still present.

* [[Eye Scream]]: {{spoiler|Kano's}} beat-down by Jax and the subsequent surgery.

* [[Helmets Are Hardly Heroic]]: When the SWAT team raids Kano's warehouse in the first episode, Stryker and Jax are the only ones who don't wear helmets.

* {{spoiler|[[Jerkass]]: One of the executives Johnny Cage beat up after he heard they're using another actor. As Johnny Cage walks away, the executive showed his true colors and threatened to make sure Johnny will never get another job again.}}

* [[Mythology Gag]]: Johnny Cage hits the Squirrel in the crotch with a move similar to the one he used on Goro in the original movie.

* [[Nice Hat]]: {{spoiler|Raiden}}, naturally.

*** Also when Jax and Kano are fighting over a gun and accidentally shoot an explosive charge into the ground and their feet.

** The asylum orderly after Raiden not only shrugs off the taser, but it actually makes him stronger. Maybe pumping electricity into the god of thunder isn't such a great idea.

* [[Psycho Psychologist]]: The guy who runs the Asylum Raiden is commited to. While believing a man who thinks he is the God of Thunder might need medical help is not unreasonable, that is no excuse for acting like a total ''dick'' to him for the duration, or any of your other patients, mocking his apparent delusions and controlling everyone with violence and intimidation. Not to mention Raiden is locked up in his institution not so much for that, as for magically appearing on the aslyum grounds, and they make no effort to inform the authorities of the fact, both of which qualify this as kidnapping.

* [[Real After All]]: Meta version. Based on the ''Rebirth'' trailer, many thought that this would entirely forgo the mysticism of the series in favor of [[Doing in The Wizard|scientific, gritty explanations]] for the series' characters. And the first couple episodes featuring Jax and Sonya back that up, as does most of Johnny Cage's episode, {{spoiler|then Shang Tsung shows up at the end and casually ''stops time''.}}

* [[Recycled in Space]]: Invoked. {{spoiler|Johnny Cage makes a last-ditch pitch for a series, complete with on-spec pilot, to TV executives. They said they can't help him, and the network already decided that before they showed up. After they leave, he heads out, only to accidentally hear them pitching the exact same thing he just showed them to a female action star, only ''she's'' in the title role. [[Berserk Button|He beats up one of the executives, plus several security guards, then walks away]].}}

* [[The Scapegoat]]: Elder Sub-Zero {{spoiler|for Quan Chi with regards to the slaughter of Hanzo Hasashi's clan}}

* [[Slasher Smile]]: Mileena, when showing her Tarkatan side.

* [[Tempting Fate]]:

{{quote| '''Kano:''' ''I'm going to enjoy this as much as I enjoyed torturing your sweet Sonya.''}}

* [[Time Stands Still]]: Shang Tsung apparently has this power.
