That, that's awesome.

It's mortal kombat, predator and Nick Cage as Raiden. What could go wrong.

Yeah people should ignore the title of the film.

It's obviously just a clickbait title some producer forced. Were this appropriately named, people would think it's got potential.

There's a lot in a name. Make up your own title to give it a fair shake, then decide if you like the movie or not.

I mean, remember Mandy? That shit was wild and this could either be glorious Nick Cage or something terrible, either way I'll give it a watch.

A predator sequel where Tony Jaa et all are teleported to an alien world to do hand to hand combat with predators and other alien races would be pretty sweet. This? I dunno, the alien looks kinda lame.

"hey what's that martial art that all the Brazilian guys are doing?"

UFC?

"No, no, idiot that's the thing with Gregory McConner"

Google's Brazilian Martial art's, results: a bunch of fancy Capoeria kicks

"Ah yes that is sweet, ok write that shit down"

Two Months later

"Ah shit what was the name of that Martial Art again"

UFC?

"Ah yeah google UFC Brazilian Fighting"

results: BJJ

"Ah dude what's all this gay shit, why are they all humping each other, even the name sounds gay, they're going to think we're talking about some gay stuff, shorten it to Jiu-Jitsu"

Results: movie with a bunch of Wushu and Capoeria, and Nicholas Cage, and a 1980's Ninja in a Crysis suit


No no, totally going back to our roots this is Samurai Japanese Jiu-Jitsu

Jiu-Jitsu practitioners: "This isn't authentic Jiu-Jitsu in that C-tier hollywood basement Nic Cage martial arts flick with a Predator-knock-off!!"

Other martial artists: "First time?"

That is some straight to VHS levels of CGI in that trailer. Or something an amateur CGI artist would throw randomly into a softcore porn project for no reason at all.

How the fuck does Nick Cage make a movie every 2 months? Chris, this guy is in more B-list movies a year than some actors make in a lifetime. Does he work for min wage and Big Macs?

I'd guess he commands at least 200k in these B-list DVD flicks. There's a lot of rich kids and thirsty wannabe producers out there at Goldman Sachs and other banks and heirs that just want to work with big name brand talent. Tons of wannabes in Hollywood that just want a chance to cut their teeth on the industry, something to brag about to their friends.

Nic Cage commanded 20 million per movie at one point, he's got that it factor and appeal to B movie creators as a former A-lister.

He won't say how much he's making. But sounds like deals include distribution and a percentage of sales as well, which he'd be able to easily command for these movies as a former A-lister.

That sounds like backend $ to me.

He did say it's not just money, and he does examine the role to make sure it's something passable. But admitted money is a main driving factor in doing 20 movies a year.

He's eccentric and made a lot of stupid purchases. This is a way to stay eccentric rather than change his purchasing habits.

The God Emperor Leto is just using his mind to open up a portal to test out his “Space Man” Duncan Idaho on us to see if we are ready for the new Dune movie.
