No joke, this is actually a great character moment for Johnny. He’s finally overcame his arrogance and has finally understood his place in the tournament, and chooses to go into a battle he doesn’t think he’ll win just to save his friends.
@@garyking1986 Let's see. We have the most gratuitous IP Theft ever today out in the open and no one carez, so we have all the technology needed for enact a Virtual Reality of Goro versus ?? Let's see for proof.
I find it extremely interesting that the actor, the guy that thrives on attention and being the center of attention, brought Goro to a secluded spot to kill him without an audience. And he _still_ delivered the one-liner.
Never forget the one-liner. And don't forget to have a backup in case someone asks "what happened to the other guy?" In this case, something like "he fell for me" or "he took the short way down" work as pocket-replies.
I was like 9 when this movie came out and begged my mom to take me to see it. When Johnny Cage dropped the "$500 sunglasses" line it made me laugh uncontrollably, even more than the groin punch. Wish I could relive that moment one more time before I die.
This movie and Linden Ashby's version of Johnny is a great contribution for the future MK lore. Hence, the reason we have Johnny as a narcissistic celebrity Douchebag
And now in MK11 johnny bounty is 500$ on erron's wanted poster. And several references in other MK game. Really fine addition to the Lore thanks to him
They look like that to you because they were both great actors with great writing, not because they looked like a sprite. This wasnt ps5 graphics lmao, anyone with long dark hair would have fit the character model.
The movie was made around the idea of Jean-Claude Van Damme getting the Johnny Cage character, but he turned it down. Still, the Johnny Cage guy is also perfect, as everyone else in the movie.
The guy who played scorpion was my karate teacher when I was little , he taught at red dragon in Glendora California and is all around an awesome guy , glad I met him and seen him in this movie !!
Sad thing is ya right. I busted a gut when they used that joke for an opening between those two in MKX "Cage..." 'Don't you owe me some sunglasses?' "HERE IS WHAT YOU ARE OWED!"
Considering that Goro was animatronic puppet and not an actor in a costume... That is one of if not the most convincing performance by animatronic puppet in history. Looked so lifelike.
Everyone in the theater was dying of laughter when Johnny punched him in the nuts. I also love the detail of him holding his nuts with the bottom arms and balancing himself with the upper arms.
As a kid in the theater back then, when Johnny Cage did the low-blow on Goro the entire theater went crazy with laughter and cheers like I've never seen before or since.
This movie had character development and great music. Something the new movie lacked. Johnny overcoming the idea people would think he was fake; Sonya admitting even she needed help; and finally, the centerpiece of the movie: Liu Kang finally not blaming himself for his brother’s death. Got chills when he uttered to shang tsung “Chan chose his own path. Every man is responsible for his own destiny. SHANG TSUNG KILLED MY BROTHER!”
@@danceyrselfkleen As in any movie I watch. Progress from point A to B, unless of course you want to just turn off your brain for 2 hours and watch mindlessly.
"This is where you fall down" is my favorite line in this movie. Just perfect. Johnny says it in complete annoyance at the stunt man early in the movie, who doesn't know his mark, then after proving himself the most legit of legit fighters, gets to say it to some outworld dragon-man, vindicating himself of everyone who cast doubt on his abilities. Flawless victory.
@@bartbitter6331 You asking me? If so, the gist of it is Goro gets knocked off the ledge, but instead of it going down as it did, Johnny offers to help Goro up and Goro denies and pretty much says he's a Shokan and would be a disgrace to return home in defeat, so he chooses to let go instead iirc.
They all were. Robin was a damn good Liu Kang and Cary's Shang Tsung is still the definitive portrayal, so much so that they remodeled the character after him in the new game.
90's kid here, back in the day Mortal Kombat was the life. MK's 1,2,3 and the 1995 film was one of the best. Also back when games had less or no dialogue certain games had no save points. Those were the days simple times.
I remember seeing this movie when it came out opening weekend. I was in 4th grade. The theater I saw it in had a hokey (which at the time I thought was the coolest thing ever) martial arts "demonstration" before the movie. I came out of that theater throwing lame kicks and punches hyped out of my mind. Good times.
Same with me. I saw this in theaters way back in 95. After coming out of the theater I just wanted to play Mortal Komabt ASAP another coolest thing about those times. Those were the good old days.
I was 9 years old back in 95 when I saw film. I saw it after a week after it's release, the room was half filled. The good old days though. I also saw the 2nd film in theaters as well in 97. Thanks for asking.
man you dumbasses didn't get it, the second round started after shang tsung said to liu kang "the chosen one". that's why Liu said it was a flawless victory for that round.
Debatable in the scorpion fight. Im not sure if he used an air version of shadow kick to scorpion when the teleported, or the after images were from Scorpion's teleport Then again, he did miss and still won without hitting them with his shadow powers
The truth is, the plot armor of Jonny Cage in this film was even greater than his daughter's in MKX. How the heck was Jonny able to beat Goro in a fist fight? Shokans are basically draconic gorillas with four arms. And against Scorpion? He doesn't use regular fire, he uses Hellfire, Scorpion should've burnt Jonny and his shield to a crisp.
Hang on. He beat Goro using his brain instead of going in full force. Even though he beat Scorpion at the end, Scorpion was pummeling Johnny Cage throughout that fight. That was a tough battle for Cage.
They actually threw it in at the last minute, when lots of people where asking about Cage's nut punch during production. Most of the things that made this film were last minute additions, surprisingly. Scorpion and Reptile didn't even fight in the original cut.
@@NexusLives I read somewhere that the original cut fight with Scorpion ended when Cage did the shadow kick and killed him. They didn't go to the other realm. Not sure if true but wouldn't mind seeing that lol.
@mikelinton4540 yeah, they added the actual fight last minute when screeners said they liked the movie, but wanted more fights. So Robin Shou choreographed a Scropion and reptile fight. It's why all the other fights are 5 seconds long in comparison.
No matter how much anyone denies it, both these movies by Paul Anderson were awesome and really captured the feel and atmosphere of the game. And that's the most important thing for any game-based movie.
@@manupainkiller initially it was Cameron Diaz, basically she backed out the film and the current actress only had like 2 weeks to prepare for the role. I still think she was pretty good, I think she did great for her martial arts scene I'm happy that they gave her kind of like a street fighting kickboxing style. I also thought her break between her legs was pretty awesome. Honestly I thought she did pretty good
Dude! Seriously it’s my favorite part! Back in college my best friend and I picked up on that and we would do it at our school’s sporting events. I have no clue who they were but I love those two guys!
It looks like the progression of the scene (in their minds) Broski 1: he’s gonna finish him?! Broski 1 to Broski 2: He’s gonna finish him! Broski 2: He’s gonna finish him?! Broski 2 and Broski 1 together: FINISH HIM!!!!!
I was born in 1992 as a kid this was in 4k with the best graphics on the planet lol it was so hype back then I still get the kid energy watching this gem
Exactly: punch him in the nuts to get him to stop thinking/piss him off, set an ambush, finish the job. Hell, Goro was barely able to stand after that low blow so combine that with the surprise from the ambush and Johnny not letting up once his advantage is secured and this fight makes a lot of sense. Goro was portrayed here as relying solely on his inhuman endurance and power to bulldoze his enemies. Johnny short circuited that plan.
It was still plot armour though, in that Goro just stood around with his mouth open whilst Johnny delivered his cheesy line, before easily kicking his ass. If Goro was even half decent at fighting, then the weight and size difference alone should have been enough for him to easily crush Johnny. A good example of a dude using his brain to defeat a bigger stronger opponent is Daniel Craig's Bond vs Dave Bautista's Hinx in the movie: Spectre.
@@BillyTheBigKid82 Johnny watched all his fights, he knew goro was arrogant and would do his signature fist slam, leaving him open. pretty simple if you ask me.
The animatronic monsters used in 90’s movies and horror films added a whole other level of creepiness. The uncanny style made it so much more unsettling
Lmao sure but that fight was pure cringe, goro moved like a grandma & no way Cage would be able to beat him with just a nut punch & a kick lol the new MK movie is going to rip this one apart.
@Tariq Waseem well I'm actually not blaming anyone, I know it wasn't easy bringing these characters to life using old tech, the movie itself was good for it's time but now watching all these clips again, it's just idk how some people can say the old one looks better than the new one at least the special effects area.
@@ARWG That may so, but you didn't hear or see Johnny react in pain from that. And after that, Johnny hurt his own hand with his last punch on Goro's little Coco-Nuts. And next thing you'll hear is: "Damn! That hurt." So would you call that your Flawless Victory if you hurt your own hand even from that part?
Now the $500 sunglasses are used as projectiles in Mortal Kombat 11. And there is an easter egg in Mortal Kombat X when Johnny askes Goro about owing him $500
@@demochris1786 i meant that they didnt show Kintaro in any of the movies.. by the time the 2nd movie came out (1997) MK3trilogy was out on the consoles
Fun fact: there was a legal dispute between game Cage's motion capture actor and the game studio that made MK. He did motion capture for a character in a rival (MK clone) fighting game and did advertising for it where he "brilliantly" called out MK as the inferior series. Sadly for him, he got black balled by the MK studio AND the game he was in flopped horribly. So when they went to make MK3, they nixes Cage's role in the series by killing him off, thereby no longer needing his actor and to also rub lemon juice and salt in the motion capture actor's wounds
@Nicholas Doss If only they knew at the time that Cage would go on to become one of the series easily top 5, perhaps even top 3 most popular characters
Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa does villainy so well he's done a bunch of interviews about Hollywood and Asian American roles he must be made of steel to have endured some of the straight-to-video turkeys on his imdb sheet
@@cartergoetzinger that was real. He would have won quicker if he had his powers. He is the best action movie star in the world they might cast him to be sub zero.
Best Rayden performance for me. A Joker and serious God at same time. When I was a child, I remember that I'd not imagined this Rayden personality yet, before watch this movie.
Not gonna lie, Rayden (that's what I'm calling 90s Raiden) is my favorite version of the character. He's still awesome in battle and when he's serious but he also had a sense of humor along with sarcasm. And this one started it all.
Shang Tsung’s actor can never be replaced. He’s like the iconic evil sorcerer villain. Flawless victory to Johnny Cage. Till this day, Johnny cages split punch is so iconic it’s like also a bloodline ender too😅
I don't know why people hated this movie. It was funny, had memorable characters from the game, and had a good story. But hey, just my opinion. I hope you liked it too.
@@fabianSito123 bruh this is 1.old movie 2. Video game movie. And 3 was meant for all ppl lol I don't see the problem cringy then you won't like the games story I gues
@@matthewstanley8295 The cringy and weak acting and dialogue have got nothing to do with the games story, I love Mortal Kombat's story lines for the most part but this movie was an atrocity, so bad it was funny good.
In most scenes, Goro was an actual robot with controls, similar to what you saw in original Alien movies. At the time, it's easier to add "weight" to a character and its action with a robot than CG.
And Raiden. For me at least. I like Lambert's Raiden more than "i must consult with the elder gods" from mk 9-11. I don't hate him but I like movie version more as I said.
Part of the reason is that it comes off to a lot of people, upon initial viewing as a cheap 90's spectacle. You have to pay some attention while watching an people don't like that.
@@leandrocruz2744 I don't know. Based on my research and comparison(Subjectively), i think mortal kombat movie changed the story because of real life political relation between countries. For me, MK 2021 was good enough. MK 1995 was great
@@seriousnesstv7902 Obviously. My point was that the whole scene is bad screenwriting. Goro was supposed to be a scary, intimidating monster. In the lore he is a 9 time winner of mortal kombat. Johnny is forced to make a cheap shot just to run away. Then they get on the cliff and Johnny clowns him in 5 seconds. Based on everything we know about the characters, Johnny should have lost when his first "surprise" kick didn't knock Goro down.
¡Me acuerdo muy bien cuando vi por primera vez esta película estaba buenísima junto con mis amigos y la supe disfrutar es mi preferida y me gusta mucho gracias!👍😉
This movie is so badass. And it still holds up relatively well even today. The 2021 MK movie that came out a few years ago lacked the heart that MK 1995 had.
When Linden Ashby was on screen the quality of this film improved every time. “This is where you fall down.” Easily the most memorable line in this flick.
Imagine how Goro's last seconds were like, "How could a 9-time Mortal Kombat champion like me could be 'flawless-victory'-ed and 'stage fatality'-ed by an amateur actor?"
Can we take a minute to appreciate the music for Johnny cages scenes, Absolutely perfect and fits the cocky confident demeanor. This is where you fall down. 25 years later this is still one of the best and funniest fight scenes ever. Linden Ashby killed it as Johnny Cage....criminally underrated. And is it just me or is the 1995 Goro way better looking and way more realistic than the 2021 Goro?
Nah it's not just you. CGI trash is a CGI trash, and the new film is full of CGI trash. The only good thingd about that film are Scorpion and SubZero, and they are in there for 15 minutes combined.
@@kaihedgie1747 I disagree. Other than Reptile, the CGI was better implemented in the original. The film itself was fun, funny and captured the spirit of the games almost completely(more gore would make it perfect). The characters were better and more likeable, the music was better, fights were better. If this new MK was about Scorpion and Sub Zero, it would rock. Unfortunately those 2 can't hold a 2 hour film because they're in it for 5 minutes. Those 5 minutes of theirs are the only worthy parts.
hands down Johnny Cage is my favorite character 🙌 cocky, rich, handsome, and badass as hell. plus one of the best lines ever "This is where you fall down"
@@friendlyneighborhoodcollec5928 then realistically speaking $500 dollars IS a lot of money. If u were realistically set back with a $500 fine, or if u had $500 realistically stolen from you, would you just be like "eh, i have so many bills and groceries to buy. $500 isnt really that much"?
i like how johny confronts not only the goro, but his ego as well. He attacks his oponents weakest point, runs away, and ambushes him from behind. basicialy he does everything normal egocentric person would find not-cool and shamefull. And in the end, what he does, makes one of the most badass scenes in the movie - earning him all the glory its so deep and all
Notice also that this scene is mirroring the beginning where he was filming the action-movie scene. Same music, same shots, same dialogue ("alright, let's dance...", "this is where you fall down") etc. It really was him getting over his ego and realizing his dream of being a true hero (which he was trying to achieve through his movies yet the press made fun of him). Goro crushing his glasses also "shatters his ego" and he realizes the stakes are real this time and it's no longer the same scene as in the beginning, and if he tries to mimic his movie-persona he'll lose.
No joke, this is actually a great character moment for Johnny. He’s finally overcame his arrogance and has finally understood his place in the tournament, and chooses to go into a battle he doesn’t think he’ll win just to save his friends.

Facts
Shang Tsung and Liu Kang were casted so perfectly, they really found actors that looked exactly like their characters for them
And shang tsung is still acting today in several roles and in the latest mortal Kombat, they even used his appearance.
They look like that to you because they were both great actors with great writing, not because they looked like a sprite. This wasnt ps5 graphics lmao, anyone with long dark hair would have fit the character model.
Linden Ashby was a good Johnny Cage, Christopher Lambert as Raiden and Brigitte Wilson as Sonya.
The movie was made around the idea of Jean-Claude Van Damme getting the Johnny Cage character, but he turned it down. Still, the Johnny Cage guy is also perfect, as everyone else in the movie.
@@PabloGener He turned down because johnny cage was secondary character in this movie and van damme was in cocaine back then.
The fact that the iconic sunglasses line was improvised is the most Johnny Cage thing ever
And in a Mortal Kombat game, Johnny Cage still remembered what happened to his sunglasses.
He had a very long memory.

Haha true I guess he has small brain 🤣

He should've climbed like a bug lol
You can't fight the movie script, it says he falls, he's going to fall!
Dude defeated goro using brain, not plot armor.
Respect
Exactly: punch him in the nuts to get him to stop thinking/piss him off, set an ambush, finish the job. Hell, Goro was barely able to stand after that low blow so combine that with the surprise from the ambush and Johnny not letting up once his advantage is secured and this fight makes a lot of sense. Goro was portrayed here as relying solely on his inhuman endurance and power to bulldoze his enemies. Johnny short circuited that plan.
It was still plot armour though, in that Goro just stood around with his mouth open whilst Johnny delivered his cheesy line, before easily kicking his ass. If Goro was even half decent at fighting, then the weight and size difference alone should have been enough for him to easily crush Johnny.
A good example of a dude using his brain to defeat a bigger stronger opponent is Daniel Craig's Bond vs Dave Bautista's Hinx in the movie: Spectre.
And he also used the stage fatality.

What is so awesome to me is that not only was Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa the original actor for Shang Tsung in this movie, but he also voices him in MK11!
Yeah they kind of did that on purpose like having the Raiden from this movie in the game as well
Killing this man off in the sequel was the worst decision made in this series, which says a lot
I mean johnny did die in the outworld invasion on earth in the mk3 which is some what actually i cant take up for the movie lol nevermind.
They were following the mk 3 story line where Johnny Cage was killed during the out world earth realm merger.
The actor didn’t come back because he was going to get killed ofd
Fun fact: there was a legal dispute between game Cage's motion capture actor and the game studio that made MK. He did motion capture for a character in a rival (MK clone) fighting game and did advertising for it where he "brilliantly" called out MK as the inferior series. Sadly for him, he got black balled by the MK studio AND the game he was in flopped horribly. So when they went to make MK3, they nixes Cage's role in the series by killing him off, thereby no longer needing his actor and to also rub lemon juice and salt in the motion capture actor's wounds
@Nicholas Doss If only they knew at the time that Cage would go on to become one of the series easily top 5, perhaps even top 3 most popular characters
Johnny cage in my mind will always be the guy who defeated Prince Goro.
And destroyed his royal balls.
No matter how bad you think the movies are, you've got to admit: this Shang Tsung was perfect.
He was so good that netherrealm used him for shang tsung in MK 11.
Yeah, but he should be old in the first movie (Tournament from the first game)
*is
Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa does villainy so well
he's done a bunch of interviews about Hollywood and Asian American roles
he must be made of steel to have endured some of the straight-to-video turkeys on his imdb sheet

Not gonna lie, Rayden (that's what I'm calling 90s Raiden) is my favorite version of the character. He's still awesome in battle and when he's serious but he also had a sense of humor along with sarcasm. And this one started it all.
This is why Chris Lambert will always be Raiden to me. He can be serious, sarcastic and a jokester.
Shang Tsung’s actor can never be replaced. He’s like the iconic evil sorcerer villain. Flawless victory to Johnny Cage. Till this day, Johnny cages split punch is so iconic it’s like also a bloodline ender too😅

The special effects on Goro, actually aren’t that bad.
Linda Veasey i know people like to hate on it
In most scenes, Goro was an actual robot with controls, similar to what you saw in original Alien movies. At the time, it's easier to add "weight" to a character and its action with a robot than CG.
Say what you want about Paul W. S. Anderson, but he was able to “mask” Goro very well
Linda Veasey it really weird seeing Shang Tsung here because he looks just like MK11
His head movements were dumb though but overall not bad
I don't know what's funnier, Goro getting punched in the balls or Shang Tsung calling him an imbecile for letting it happen
The ball shot in my opinion.
Lmaoooo idk that imbecile was pretty strong too
The imbecile line is funny and Raiden cheering johnny on was hilarious too.
Imbecile made it cherry on top

"Those were $500 sunglasses, asshole." Literally one of the best movie lines ever.
This movie had PERFECT actors for Liu Kang, Shang Tsung, Kano and Johnny Cage.
And Raiden. For me at least. I like Lambert's Raiden more than "i must consult with the elder gods" from mk 9-11. I don't hate him but I like movie version more as I said.
@@m7ray Oh yeah the actor for Raiden was badass too!

I wished they used robin shou's face model for mk11 liu kang
They actually made Kano Australian in the official canon because of the actor's superb portrayal.
I don't know how this doesn't go down as one of the most underrated films of all time. Excellent scenery, excellent acting, excellent storyline.
Part of the reason is that it comes off to a lot of people, upon initial viewing as a cheap 90's spectacle. You have to pay some attention while watching an people don't like that.
It had a budget of 4 millions and gained 12 millions in return.

@@Gotred everything is controlled by the scriptwriters, the whole movie could just not exist if it were up to them
@@seriousnesstv7902 Obviously. My point was that the whole scene is bad screenwriting. Goro was supposed to be a scary, intimidating monster. In the lore he is a 9 time winner of mortal kombat. Johnny is forced to make a cheap shot just to run away. Then they get on the cliff and Johnny clowns him in 5 seconds. Based on everything we know about the characters, Johnny should have lost when his first "surprise" kick didn't knock Goro down.

This is where you fall down. 25 years later this is still one of the best and funniest fight scenes ever. Linden Ashby killed it as Johnny Cage....criminally underrated.

CGI trash is a CGI trash, and the new film is full of CGI trash. The only good thingd about that film are Scorpion and SubZero, and they are in there for 15 minutes combined.
Why would you think it's a hot take to say practical effects look better than CG? Of course they do and probably always will.
@@bmsuperstar1 The irony defending a movie that's already brimming with pretty cheesy CGI
@@kaihedgie1747 I disagree. Other than Reptile, the CGI was better implemented in the original.
The film itself was fun, funny and captured the spirit of the games almost completely(more gore would make it perfect).

If this new MK was about Scorpion and Sub Zero, it would rock.
Unfortunately those 2 can't hold a 2 hour film because they're in it for 5 minutes. Those 5 minutes of theirs are the only worthy parts.

He attacks his oponents weakest point, runs away, and ambushes him from behind. basicialy he does everything normal egocentric person would find not-cool and shamefull. And in the end, what he does, makes one of the most badass scenes in the movie - earning him all the glory
its so deep and all
thats exactly the way I view this whole scene.
2:34 would you call that fake confidence 😂
Johnny Cage doesnt lose baby
nah, but that same thing is what got goro fucked up. he highly underestimated Johnny, and Johnny's cageyness, I mean, its in his name, Johnny CAGE(y).
Notice also that this scene is mirroring the beginning where he was filming the action-movie scene. Same music, same shots, same dialogue ("alright, let's dance...", "this is where you fall down") etc. It really was him getting over his ego and realizing his dream of being a true hero (which he was trying to achieve through his movies yet the press made fun of him). Goro crushing his glasses also "shatters his ego" and he realizes the stakes are real this time and it's no longer the same scene as in the beginning, and if he tries to mimic his movie-persona he'll lose.
