      He real life broke Liu Kang's ribs too. When he chucked him into that pillar, that crunch sound was legit Robin's (act who plays Liu Kang) ribs cracking.
      Another cool thing, both Reptile and Scorpion fights weren't in the original movie cut. Test groups said there wasn't enough fightings so those two fights got added and arguably are the best fights of the whole movie.

      1. Turns from an old CGI monster into a human ninja.
      2. Has his own announcer (straight from the arcade games) present him as Reptile.
      3. Makes an entrance with kickass music and immediately goes ballistic through the wall.
      4. Proceeds to kick ass in one of the best action movie fights out there.
      5. Gets defeated by some epic bicycle kicking.
      6. Refuses to elaborate.
      7. Dies, but comes back in later games and still remains a dark horse fan favourite.

      ​ @inappropriately aligned metaphorical nourishment Well Reptile did look like that in the first three MK games which this movie is based of. Sure they could use some toxic ball or sth but for me it would ruin the perfect choreography with poor CGI at that times. Moreover the directors state that they almost run out of budget because of Goro.

    Can we have a moment of appreciation for seeing two trained martial artists who clearly have spent a long time working on the choreography for this scene. For seeing a movie that backs the camera off so we can see every punch and kick thrown and seeing the expressions on the fighters faces. For seeing real actors being in a real room with real props for them to interact with. This movie clearly has a passion that movies today don’t for action.

    Whoever came up with the idea for Reptile creature concept, deserves praise.
    The the statue that the actual Lizard creature gets trapped in - it's essentially both a slow death sentence and an instant addition to the Outworld Army.
    Instead of simply executing captured soldiers, the statue instead traps them and slowly starts to power itself using their energy.

    I always loved how there was a voice announcing 'Reptile' and the music that followed just hit you in the chest. No talking, straight up fighting for your life, and you had to do it on your own, which is why Johnny Cage didn't intervene. Their martial arts pride wouldn't let them gang up on Reptile. These 1990s directors really knew how to entertain us.

    Seeing Reptile make a surprise appearance in this film in 95' was such a unexpected treat because hes not in the movie trailer & he was basically the very first ever secret character in a video game so we definitely didn't expect him to be in this movie & then actually turn into a ninja & fight someone like in the first MK game & he also had the best fight scene too!!!! It was a perfect way to fool the audience with him as a surprise character in the film!!!! Im so glad they didn't leave him out because secret characters were not a thing back then so having him actually appear in the actual film was actually insane ❤
    I remember seeing this film as a kid but fell asleep right after Goro dies so i don't know Reptile was in it & going to fight until my brother told me the next time we watched it together & i didn't believe him even tho u see the CGI lizard through out the film !!!! This scene absolutely blew my mind especially after all the other scenes that already blew my mind before it !!!!

      That is one of the reasons why this movie was great. It was PG13 movie which adapted full of gore and violence games. They created game like fighting situations appropriate for a movie. Added iconic music to it and had cool fighting scenes. Without gore, fatalities and a lot of characters this movie managed to capture hearts of many viewers.
      To this day I still get small goosebumps when I watch this scene. It just feels like a game and movie situation. When you hear that techno soundtrack kick in and announcer say "Reptile" I just remember Liu Kang yelling and doing his iconic bicycle kick which kicked "Reptile" trough the same hole.

Reptile (then) was the most skilled and agressive martial artist of the three. Sub-Zero, while by no means incompetent, is the most magically oriented, with Scorpion splitting the difference.

    The aggression from the moment he comes alive kicks him through the wall chases him and locks in his target and runs full speed like the game was a whole another level of violence , the perfect character selection voice, the song that fit so perfectly for the way this actor fought, the part where reptile is piecing up luí with a family meal combo after that god like toss, his grunting after each move, the Mk 2 game snake hands stance, the snake hiss and come back after he got flipped, the way he kept giving all he had until finally that sissy lil throw took him out, and the bicycle kick.

      Let's all be real. Reptile won that fight. Only plot armor saved that man from permanent damage being kicked through a brick wall, and then into what I believe is a concrete one

      Agreed. They never did explain how he got a "body" though lol. Reptile did not mess around here and its BS the outcome of this fight. He gets the badass music, moveset, but because Kang is the hero. This is one of my favorite moments but also most hated. In fact every Kang victory is lol. Love Reptile's theme regardless.
