I don’t usually suggest this, check out the Twitch chat on this one, everyone is suggesting Cage movies. Mine are Cagent Johnny Banks; Cages (2019); Caging Bull; Johnnything, Johnnywhere, All at Cage; and Precious: based on the novel Cage by Johnny.
Any Cages I missed? Feel free to Johnny them here. Is it Toasty yet?
Cage of Arcanum
Thank you, Flando
LET'S GO. Praise the speed that was given to Flando by timestamp gods.
Citizen Cage
"Oceangate-ality" is a buried gem
Sam _"I Give the People What They Want"_ Riegel absolutely nailed this one, nice to see him really let loose in a chaotic way xD
Lets be honest on this one: When we heard Sams voice and knew they are doing MK1 One-Shot, we all knew he is going to be Johnny and he is going to be amazing at it :D
Sam actually saved this show.
@timd4524 that implies that it was going to be shit otherwise, which I doubt as everyone in this one was awesome
Sam killed it as Cage, but I bet he could make a pretty damn good Kano too.
For someone who doesn't know anything about Mortal Kombat, he got Johnny Cage _just right_
I noticed that in the subtitles all the words that start with the letter 'c' now start with the letter 'k' and I at first I thought this was a typo and then I realized that this is "Mortal Kombat" so it all makes sense. I love this attention to detail.
You can tell Marisha has either played MK for a long time, or she has really done her research, cause this whole thing is a love letter to MK.
Matt has talked about her being ultra competitive at fighter games like MK and SF.
i love this 1 shot, i just had to pause and skip everytime they show Gina Darling, shes a walking HIV and i dont want her to infect me.
@@jkfan2011 I mean I dunno who she is or what she's done to get that kinda hate but do you booboo
@@jkfan2011is there something wrong with your brain?
How is she gonna let rain clown my boy Noob Saibot like that? The man is a wraith and has no water to pull from his body.
It's interesting just how easy and perfectly well Sam Riegel can play a self obsessed, overconfident, attention seeking, primadonna Hollywood star 😅
Play? ;)
Method acting!
He even had photos to autograph. Having him be Johnny was just perfect.
Well...I mean...
Don't forget out-of-touch x)
This is one of the best versions of Sindel in my eyes. She is a jaded villain, but it's not without understanding like in MK11. She's been a victim of abuse and resurrection so many times, it's understandable why she would stray from the path of the light. I particularly like how she punished Shao Khan and Shang Tsung. Shang becomes a victim of soul stealing, ironically. Shao being used as an object much like how he viewed Sindel. Marsha wrote her character so seamless. I kinda wish we get a version of this Sindel like this down the road.
the whole speech at 2:53:50 really hits different, as goofy as the "Sindel Century" bit was, this monologue truly makes it feel like she finally snapped, tired of being a victim, so she decided to turn the tables
Marisha's GMing was never bad, but holy shit she has gotten so good over the last couple years. Helps to live with one of the best to ever do it I'm sure, but she has her own flair and style that is so fun to watch. Hope she gets to run a longer form series of her own soon
Especially considering she is married to the guy who does critical role as DM lol
Marisha: "So you're gonna be an egotistical, self-obssesed, Hollywood action star."
Sam: "Okay. But who's my character in the game?"
Marisha's Sindel cosplay is KILLER! I was floored when I saw the livestream. This was a good bit of fun!
I can't really say I *needed* to hear Marisha's Banshee Scream, but my life has improved having heard it
@@wolight Accurate 😂
She looks SMASHING❤
Invert the black and white color on her hair and she's cosplaying Laudna.
Kosplay ;)
I love how it started so serious... and then descended into face-licking madness! They all had such good intentions (Not Sam. Not Travis.), and then all falling into the absolute chaos of it all! All of this is so MK it's amazing!
A flawless victory of a one-shot. Marisha and the players slayed it.
It was especially cool that Noshir Dalal basically reprised the role of MK1 Rain for this one.
That as well as Travis being Raiden once more after being the Thunder God in MK Onslaught.
I believe he voices Thunder God Raiden in MK1 aswell.
@@DarksideGmss0513 The Titan Raiden, yes, in Chapter 14: Time of Death.
The fact that Rain's played by his ACTUAL voice actor is the cherry on top of this already delicious, bloody sundae. It took me until he said his line from the trailer to realize it, however.
"Rain will fall upon you like daggers from the sky!"
Travis played (and plays in MK 1) Raiden before as well.
@@darkamora5123 Oh yeah, good point!
I thought Sam played Johnny cage? At some point.
@@whitslebinkzaffrey5838no he just *is* Johnny Cage
Marisha absolutely killed it with Sindel.
And everyone else killed Sindel's bush
They went at it like they were begging someone to notice
Once again, Marisha plays a character that NEVER dies.
It's part of her brand 😝
They're basically gods!
@@MikeztarpGOLDFISH ANIMALITY!
I have been a Critter since the beginning of C2... and I've seen crappy people hate on Marisha... but I've NEVER been so proud of her as seeing her GM this, especially the Fluffy scene. The way she rolled with that... so freaking proud.
Watching C1, I didn't like Marisha. Then I got to C2 and I realized that I disliked Keyleth (I would avoid her at work), and not Marisha, and my inability to separate them meant that she had to be one of the best roleplayers I've seen.
C2 era Critter too here and I have to admit ... I have no idea why Keyleth was hated. I recently checked C1 up until the end of the Conclave arc. She might be my favored CR character so far, she actually had a hero's journey: from weak to strong, from silly to wise, from impulsive to patient ... Beau was way more annoying and monotone and people loved her. Laudna is iconic but so far a bit overlooked(though I am a bit behind on C3 episodes). I honestly have no idea how people think sometimes.
@@themasterprocrastinator same, i got into crit role season 2 and binged all of season 1 and was confused why people didn't like keyleth or how marisha played keyleth. i mean i understand if people don't connect to her or find her honesty and awkwardness "cringe" but that doesn't explain the amount of hate.
i think there are very loud and entitled parts of the fandom that blew it out of proportion. i've been in many good and toxic fandoms, but never saw anything like the very directed hate to keyleth and marisha.
Been watching since C1 E3, from what you can gather from chat it was a mix of „oh, she is just there cause DM girlfriend“, „why the hell doesn‘t a fairly new player know the druid class in and out“ and „she hot! Me like! Oh, she not single?! Me hate with passion!“
Add to that that the rest of the cast was relatively to well known and she was kinda the odd duck (if wildshaped correctly)… it seems she got a lot of hate because people needed to hate SOMEBODY.
@@cornelius_hearthstone6218 The funniest part is that Marisha was the only one I was familiar with because I used to watch Batinthesun ... Of course I've had the voices of the group shape my childhood like the rest of us but I never looked up their faces.
Watched the Twitch VoD and just have to say how much fun this was.
Sam fits his character perfectly and I love how chaotic it gets.
Noshir & Gina were excellent guests for this.
Gemma 💀💀💀💀
Chief, it's Gina
I just adore Marisha, and her creativity, flare, and style - I was so glad to be able to see it in action again as the DM! Contrary to some others, across most all the campaigns her characters have always been some of my favorites and meant the world to me. I finally got a photo with her at RCCC (long overdue) and I just appreciate her even more since then. What a fun and inspiring one shot!!
my new headcanon is that in one timeline, this whole party is just Sindel just processing the absolute batshit insanity that is the Mortal Kombat lore
I love that these sponsors are perfectly fine with deeply brutal death descriptions, but no swear words
I just realized that Noshir is the voice actor for Bode Akuma in "Star Wars: Jedi Survivor". I had the issue of trying to place where I have seen him before and it just hit me. Such a great voice actor.
I can't believe they got the REAL Johnny Cage to join this Oneshot!
Marisha portraying Sindel wasn’t something I knew I needed, until today.
Holy heck Marisha's killin' it. I still remember how nervous she was when she first dm'ed the honey heist oneshots. Such a difference between then and now
Thank You So Much Mortal Kombat for giving this company a sponsorship for an episode. As a 35 year old who has spent an ordinary amount throughout the years on MK gear and games. Having been Rayden for Halloween a couple of times when I was kid. Thanks for using my investment in your business to invest in something very special like critical role.
Sam was born to play Johnny Cage.
The entire Twitch stream for this was just 4 hours of people making nonstop Johnny Cage movie puns. Sam himself even joined in.
It was, to quote a certain Gilmore, *glorious.*
I love how Travis just gets more and more unhinged as the game goes on 😂
I know nothing about Mortal Kombat but Marisha looks so goddamn cool!!! She stays winning
As an MK veteran of a few decades, I can say both her cosplay and character acting as Sindel were on-point.
✊
Same, bro!
So we can all agree this was just straight up fun as fuck! from Marisha just owning it as GM to the amazingly cool fact that 2 of the VAs from MK1 are playing their characters from that! Critical Role has never failed to deliver ridiculously entertaining content for these sponsored one-shots, whether this or Doom Eternal( *MANCUBUS!* ) i always look forward to these.
Bro I loved Laura's Mancubus! You totally just made me lol
That's an amazing actress for you. Made cherub out of mancubus lol
@@Ashton_Speaks Thank you! I have been a fan of this group as JUST VAs and this show has been an AMAZING showcase for the whole groups talent and just straight awesome personality.
that "MANCUBUS!!!" chant had me in tears all game till she died lmao!!!
What I'm getting from Marisha's (awesome amazing showstopping) cosplay is that Sindel has Laudna's color palette but inverted
I was thinking... "this guy playing Rain is doing a marvelous job reenacting his voice." Not knowing that Noshir actually voices Rain in Mortal Kombat 1 lol
As soon as i saw Noshir i was like YES!!!!!!!! He's one of my favorite Voice Actors. So excited to see him on Critical Role.
I love how Sindel is the empress in this timeline, but Kitana still has the Kahn title, also I knew Sam will be the best Johnny even before it started
Marisha is really getting the hang of running games, you can feel the Matt influence, but with her own style, she really threw herself into this role. Also really thankful as a headphone user that Marisha held back some on the banshee scream, i winced for a second as she started, campaign one almost blew my eardrums lol.
Absolutely. I don't particularly like the Honey Heist games (they're just not my speed), but damn is it impressive that she made a three-part cinematic universe out of it.
I have mixed feelings about Honey Heist. I feel like the brand identification actually hurt those sessions.
Marisha grew into her element as the trilogy leaned away from Exandia and Marisha was allowed to come into her own.
And a more minor nitpick was missing Honey Master and instead being branded Bear Master. Couldn't take BM seriously for obvious reasons.
of course all of the honey heist games are now lost to time because of one real asshole of a badger
I'd credit Marisha with a lot of the improvements to the sound in general since C1. Having experience and access to experienced people who are on top of all those factors (and it being pre-recorded) makes SUCH a difference, and CR is in such a different bracket now than they used to be in those beginning G&S days.
@@saeyyy to be fair in those days there wasn’t really anything like it, it kinda started the whole genre of actual-play content. But they definitely have continued to improve, unlike some other actual-play pioneers cough cough taz cough cough
Ngl, it is both incredibly weird and also totally awesome seeing Gina on Critical Role. I originally found her through David So and the JK Crew, but she's always been awesome and nerdy so this makes total sense. It was like seeing her on TV at AEW last year. Wild!
Literally same 😂
I knew her as a guest on JK Crew she was a great guest. When she popped up as a D&D player I was like woooord? Let's goooo!
I felt Gina didn't know what the hell she was doing when "voicing" Kitana.
@@AngelusAngel1100 It’s just for fun. It’s fine if she’s not perfect.
@@AngelusAngel1100Damn almost like she's not a professional voice actor and just having some fun
Marisha got that intro ON POINT
When Sindel said that she was anti union, that's when I knew she was a villain instead of a grindhouse anti-hero
Love Noshir's work! happy he appeared in an one shot!
AND as his own character as well!
Gina as Kitana blowing Sindel a kiss is just wating for Sindel to say "Do not do that, I will explode"
Or just outright melt as per her MK1 Kiss of Death.
You do know Kitana is Sindel's daughter, right?
@@AngelusAngel1100yep. imagine how traumatizing it'd be for Kitana
@@AdamEspersona that's Sonya's fatality. Kitana's is called Deadly Kiss
@taminostam9912 in the new MK Kitana has a fatality where she kisses her opponent behind her fan and the dissolve into a messy puddle
I love how Sam consistently knocks it out of the fucking park when he's made to play something that he has no knowledge about
I am firmly of the opinion that he does secret research to ensure he can drop in some sublimely on point stuff here and there to throw us off guard
Watching Marisha play a villain is a delight.
Loved Marisha’s banshee scream.
so impressive! lungs on her!
Can we get a time for that please? Just so I can ruin my eardrums
@@jamesmaceaveli667915:50
15:54
@@RenoSaoko lets put it at 15:52
My head canon is that this world is the timeline where Sindel became the keeper of the hour glass.
"Rain will fall upon you like daggers from the sky!!"
He said the line! I'm doing the whole DiCaprio pointing at the TV thing like a maniac.
A One-shot...about my favorite fighting game? Wow! That's epic! Thank you guys!
3:25:33 MARISHA WHAT A COOL MOMENT!
Like an expert DM she took what Sam had been joking with all episode and rolled it into the original canon jonnycage to make Sam's move work and the action keep happening while possibly inadvertently acknowledging the cameo system baked into the game and the kombat/story here!
Well Played!
I was in tears watching this live and now we have a watch party for it and all 8 of my friends are Cr noobs but mortal Kombat pros . Time to make words collide
Noshir and Gina were great! And I especially loved Noshir's reactions to all the MADNESS!
The Shao-cuterie was a nice touch. Say what you want, Sindel's got class.
How fucking awesome! Prior to this I was unfamiliar with Noshir and I just so happen to be playing Horizon Forbidden West currently. I was like, “Is that fucking Kotallo?“ Turns out it is! He even happens to be my favorite NPC from that game, so far. What a fun episode!
I have never played MK, I don’t know anything about the lore or the characters. But this was a very enjoyable One Shot and Marisha’s energy helped make it stand out
Sam reigal as johnny cage is something i never knew i wanted until i got it 😂
Due to the story of MK1, there could technically be a timeline where the events of the One-Shot happened.
We got such an amazing glimpse into Marisha being the best villain DM, I was floored! SO GOOD!
I fagirl squealed when I realised Noshir was on this episode.
I freaking loved Kotallo in Horizon Forbidden West.
Noshir's portrayal of a newly disabled man in a society that focuses on physical prowess was incredible and moving and evocative.
And Kotallo was also a stone cold badass. Noshir's incredible voice was a huge part of that.
Loved Kotallo! Checkout Jedi Survivor, Noshir kills it in his role there as well!
I love Marishas look in this oneshot. She looks absolutly amazing.
just when I thought Marisha couldn't be any more absurdly beautiful as she is naturally....She cosplays as Sindel... God Damn
I love how fast the players decided to just ham it up and get weird.
3:35:31 What a great sequence, born of jealousy, and perfectly finished with Travis saying, "I wasted 3 action points for that!"
Ooh man the nostalgia hit SO HARD with this one! Absolutely fantastic crossover one shot, as per usual. Thank you, CR and esteemed guests. It was amazing.
Barely started and I am here for Marisha and Gina's mother-daughter dynamic XD
I've been waiting to see the Till The Last Gasp System in action, so I'm very excited for this.
Consideration that MK1 basically confirmed that they indeed have a multiverse, there is no doubt in my mind that this is an official timeline.
Loved and here for this. Lol as a mileena player, after that Achilles slice, I would have Teleport-kick. I definitely will be listening to more of yall.
Sam as Johnny is something I didn’t know I needed
This was a fun One-Shot Marisha is great as Sindel, Sam was super funny as Johnny Cage and Travis was Fantastic as always. Noshir and Gina are wonderful guests i hope they get invited again at some point.
I was like "Wow, this guy really sound like Rain" only to realize he actually is😂😂😂😂 I'm stupid like that sometimes
Never thought I'd get to see drunk Sindel but I love it, this one shot is amazing!
Players, amazing as usual. Would not expect less.
MarishaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA HOOOOOLY . Absolutely devoured the roll of GM and cosplayer. So smooth with it. So soso so proud and happy to see her taking that seat with the authority and confidence she deserves!
"Alien vs Predator vs Cage with Rain" 😄
MOAR MARISHA DMING WE NEED MOAR MARISHA DMING
This was incredibly good fun. Marisha just nailed it as DM. ❤❤
Having Noshir in this is just perfection!
I kinda like that improv one-shot. I feel that with less dice roll they can just play as wild as they want without really having to focus on rules.
If campaign 3 is a drama show, this is the community center improv group lol
Well done all. Brilliant job Marisha. I don't think my rib cage will ever recover.
FREAKIN' GINA DARLING??? Watched JK Party for so many years, it's crazy to see her on Critical Role!
I became a fan when she was on G4 I pop in on a stream once in a while and I’ve been watching her podcasts with ovilee May called spill it
Same! I'm happy she got into dnd!
As an FGC veteran that feared this one-shot wouldn't stay true to the source material: This is absolutely amazing, great work honoring the game's legacy and putting your own spin on it! 👏
This is such a fun PR move from NRS. Actual kontent that that you'd want to watch.
what I want to know, is how did this go from the pure dread with light relief of the first fight, to the action/comedy style reminiscent of old school Dragon Ball of the second fight, to the complete and utter hilarity and incomprehensible chaos of the third and final fight? What the fuck happened?
Sam with a dash of awkwardly horny Raiden happened XD
i love how travis isnt at all dressed as a character not even a little, but its negated by the fact he is in mortal kombat lol
Sam Riegel is an icon
Thanks for 'rocking' one of our Whetstone Pendants Sam! 👊
It was sincerely a 50/50 change Sam was going to be dressed as Johnny Cage or one of those women in ninja bikinis with the strings across the boobs. (see Jade/Mileena/Kitana from Mortal Kombat 3)
This makes me so happy to see! I was just talking with a couple of coworkers the other day about how cool it'd be if Netherealm and Larian teamed up to make an RPG set in the Mortal Kombat universe. This kinda comes close.
Super fun one-shot - Ty ty so much all for all the laughs and fun 🥰
It would be cool to see this system or a futher homebrew of it for the inter-campaign fight one shots. The drama cards can give great moments between different characters and sibce it works by objectives for 4 rounds all characters would last to the end of the fight.
Marisha and Sam were on point for this one-shot, they killed it and I love them so much for this
Wow, MerceRay family really relishes in their villainy
man I really want Gina to do a guest character in the main CR campaign
Critrole Stats really needs a Sam Riegal "Babe" Counter.
I didnt know who Noshir was before this but as soon as I heard his voice all could hear in my head was "Your honor stains the ground, brother..."
The "Hurt Locker" line ended me 😂😂😂
I find it so funny that Noob Saibot is just there eating sausage 😭😭😭 wonderful oneshot guys!
The primary entertainment is the way the cast keeps looking at Marisha in pure fear
So cool to see Noshir Dalal aka Charles Smith from RDR2 on the show. Marisha looks amazing as Sindel DAMN!
Travis' costum is the best one here _👌😂_
Hands down Sam's best character adaption
Marisha absolutely killed it 🔥
sam as johnny cage is just perfect casting..
I wasn't aware that they would be using 'Till the Last Wrap for this one! So excited!!
