The original thunder God Raiden. The Mortal Kombat creator John Tobias said his creative idea for creating Raiden and Shang Tsung came from this movie. Raiden came from this guy and Shang Tsung came from David LoPan.
You are absolutely correct sir! Johhny Cage inspiration came from Van Damme, Sonya Blade (Cynthia Rothrock) and Liu Kang was our main man Bruce Lee. BONUS INFO The ninja Reptile was played by no other than Keith Cooke an actor from Cynthia Rothrock's "China O'Brien" and an OUTSTANDING martial artist from the 80s.
It’s obvious as hell too
This shows that John Carpenter is a legend
@@Solidus78 Cyrax and Sektor were based on the Predator and Boba Fett and Kabal's look was inspired by a Tusken Raider. His name in development apparently was "Sandman".
Rayden??
After so many years, this is still the best Raiden.
absolutely
Right before, mortal kombat the video game 🎮 exist in 1992.
No joke! Hardly any lines, but the screen presence was off the chart obscenely!!!
ANYONE WORKING ON A MK MUGEN GAME PLEASE DO A RAIDEN LIKE THIS
This also happens to be the Original Raiden
One of thee greatest walk in entrances of all time🙏
Lightning is my favorite and he's such a badass in this scene
0:33 raised from mortal kombat
He should've had more screen time
The BEST and most underused villain in a film.
He kinda is the Boba Fett of Big Trouble in Little China.
I hate how they defeated him.
Jesus the music makes Lightning seem so fucking cool as he approaches Jack
Now that's bad ass.
I like how he walks while fire is behind him.
lightning is my favorite character in the movie!
The electronic score is perfect for this.
For a while I thought Lightning was just showing off his powers but now I'm starting to see that he was just blocking off the exit behind him so they couldn't escape.
Even they were already escaping in a different direction
@@joecha9746 Face it. Lightning is here to look cool (and wouldn't you fry stuff for the fun of it if you had his powers). If you want strategy and brains, look no further than wise ol' Egg Shen. =)
@@PurrsPlace lightning was the best.
@@joecha9746 Till he caught that Buddha statue with his face
Such a great entrance. The way he walks and the music
is so cool. And I love his outfit and hat ensemble.
Feels very Mortal Kombat-ish
Feels like an arcade boss fight about to go down. 😄
@@gunny123451 Except this was first and MK was based on some of the characters in this film....
@@BigTeeze Yep, the whole feel and presence of MK was inspired by this flick.
Such a badass entrance ⚡️⚡️⚡️
For me its not only the lightning FX but that sound design is so damn unique to the look and feel of this character,my favorite film character of all time ✊🏾✊🏾
Lightning was always my favorite when I was a little kid back in the 80s I could watch this for the rest of my life and regret nothing
I used to rewind the VHS tape like thousand times just to see this :D
Same. I miss the 80's lol.
Same here... I actually ruined my VHS thanks to how much I used to rewind this scene!
Me too
@@dlracer2 me too, funny
Always loved Jack saying, "We got a problem" so bluntly. Everything else they've dealt with to this point, and Lightning showing up creates a problem.
Nice observation. Jack pretty much disrespects everyone in the whole film openly, and this is the only moment he doesn’t have a candid response.
The most bad ass entrance ever
Just the music and his stroll into frame was awesome
I’m forty years old, and every now and then I still have a nightmare where this dude is coming after me
Incredible special effects for 1986.
Love how he showboats while Jack and his friends escape.
That was such an amazing entrance....just to take a statue to the face lmfao
We are hopefully going to be interviewing James Pax who played the 'Lightning' character ( One of the 3 storms ) from Big Trouble in Little China. If anyone would like a question answered, please let me know and i'll try to get it answered
Rule number one
Raiden doesn’t run
"Im going to scream and throw bolts randomly while they escape because is cool"
Or because lightning instantly kindles fire from the path Lightning was going towards. (0:42)
He was blocking their escape.
I would do it all the time if I could...
If a guy shows how easily he destroys stone with his powers, imagine what he would do to a squishy human body.
@@tiatrips It's too bad they never showed him actually killing someone with his lightning.
If only he stops showing off and actually kill the protagonist xD
Victor Chong He can't help it. He was written that way in the script, poor chap.
@@commandingjudgedredd1841 almost every villain in movie and gaming history does lmaooo
Man, if I could shoot lightning from my hands, Id be stylin non stop too. 😊
jinxfire Transhumanism
But....if you notice, Lightning is only showing off as a distraction... you see, he destroyed the ceiling above him, thereby negating any escape in that direction. In addition, Thunder, having destroyed himself and the room preceding him, the heroes escape route was nul an void, save for the hole in the ceiling directly above them. So, we're it not for that lucky escape hole, then Lightning would've done away with our heroes.
The CGI on the lightning was legit!
I still remember the first time I seen the film I thought everyone was dead and had forgotten all about Lightning till he appeared in this scene.
The hand movements are golden
Top 10 best movies ever!
this is how I try to make an entrance, can't get the electricity part to work though.
ROFL.
Love this OST. So cool back in the day!
Je n'ai jamais vu un film avec ce pouvoir aussi bien exploité et avec des effets spéciaux si cools
J'adore ce personnage !
Melhor filme de todos
Lord have Mercy...
Sweet Jesus Run.....
My god how is this character more raiden than the actual mortal kombat movies raiden
I know this was the idea for Raiden and I'm totally cool with that, this is one of my favorite of all time, I even imitate the sounds of this movie. But what I didn't like was MLK using a white guy to play the Japanese God of Thunder and I say thank you for changing it back for new movie. Also that entrance walk was badass, or juggling the lightning to attack Ege but he was ready with the fan block.
Best scene from any movie
Mortal Kombat owe them checks!
thats a cool RAYDEN i have ever seen
Got this movie on video & dvd and it's the best
As a Bartender/security guard, lightning taught me how to walk towards a problem customer, Be loud, show strength and walk slowly but menacingly towards them. Most of the time they leave quickly. 😂
If you're interested in the song, it's track 18 in the OST. The great escape (Lo Pan's Demise / Getaway) go to the 3:18 mark on that track.
We need to revamp this right here
Raiden!
drpapa26 exactly what I believed to be its inspiration!
The teenage mutant ninja turtles even have a specific episode on them. I'm actually watching it right now. 😊
Lo Pan and the Three Storms were the most powerful characters in the movie, yet died in the stupidest ways....
I Think that’s the joke
Lo Pan would had survive if he wasn't so desperate to have flesh again. Having flesh means he's mortal now and could easily be killed but he needs to be mortal so he could feel love from the woman he just married. Spoiler Mao Yang is clearly Lo Pan's wife now since he wed her and pleased Chin Dai, the God of the East, before Wang took her. Doesn't matter if Wang is her fiance, Lo Pan did legally married her. Because Lo Pan is mortal, the Three Storms quickly loses their cool.
That's the whole point of the movie lol
Love this movie. Its like a martial arts Goonies lmao
The original Raiden ⚡⚡⚡⚡
I love that character I have a personally signed picture from him on my wall
Thanks for explaining that!
Yes John Carpenter inspired two famous video game characters, Raiden and Snake from MGS.
Imagine if a newer release showed they went back and finished the effects on the walls
Who wouldn't want to have that super power
this guy scared the shit out of me when i was young. Even today, if you see that creature in the forest, dont play dumb, just run
They should make three different movies about these 3 legendary evil characters; the possibilities are unlimited.
He wasn't showing off..... He was lighting that structure on fire to block their retreat?......
he was showing off all he had to do was walk up to them and then they are dead
no one is going to attempt to run past a guy who has lightning covering him that touches the walls at random its suicide
This movie is the best
Raiden has no chill.
If it wasn't for their plot armor, they were dead. Lightning was an untouchable Boss for them but killed via QTE style.
The soundtrack is currently on Spotify! The song used here The Final Escape (Lo Pan's Demise/Getaway).
He was killed waaaaaaayyy to easy in this movie
Lol I thought this was going to be a video about how they lit the movie.
I wish this song was my ringtone
Who wouldn't want that super power?
The last Raiden.
My hands were doing that the other night.
My hands did that one night. True
Dark Raiden befor his soul went to mortal kombat lol He's the reason why i played mk when it first came out im looking like oooh sh/t its lighting reborn im about to go ham i gots to get this. Still my favorite movie to this day an still think they should do a part 2 im sure Kurt Russle wouldn't mind big trouble in 2 .... I leave the rest to them 🐼😊
HE WASTES SO MUCH TIME SHOWING OFF THEY ESCAPE XD
😁
@@harlemsilk148as what was said earlier if you look close he was actually blocking the only exit they had other then the hole.
Bro was too Op and they had to nerf it
Egg just wasn't taking lightnings shit AT ALL 😂
if he didn't stop to flex he would have not got hit by that rock at the end
Always wondered why thunder self destructed when lo pan died but lightning remained.
I think Thunder was so upset by Lo Pan's demise he literally exploded. It may have also been a last ditch effort to kamikaze the heroes.
Love this scene BUT he could've fried them all had he not put on the display lol. He must've been toying with them
Lighting wasn’t fucking around he was standing on business
Talk about taking your time
Guy is actually Japanese and playing a Chinese character, still awesome.
Nope, English father and Chinese mother.
@@sumanadasawijayapala5372 Well born in Japan, my apologies.
Imagine jack is dlc in other different mortal kombat games .
jack is the original Cole young but every loves jack
RAIDEN
I remember the first time I saw this, in my head was like "this idiot could have attacked Jack 3 times in the time he took showboating"
Then I realized he wasn't he was sealing the exit behind him lol.
0:36 - My favorite shot in a John Carpenter movie.
Lord Raiden
This Lightning God looks and feel more authentic than the copy Raiden in Mortal Komat. In every MK movies, I'm always disappointed with Raiden's custom.
Wow!
Muy bueno la peli
I'd kill to have those powers
This is how raiden should have been in the movies, except for the part where he kills himself with bricks lol
they are no match for my 6 demon bag!
lol
lol
James Pax Good of Thunder Original Lord Rayden Amazing!!!👍👍👍👍
his jumping success?
🤣 that's my favorite scene
Jack before jumping
"YEA FUCK YOU TO!"
The thing. Before throwing dynamite
It's just a bit sad, because he doesn't get to do very much.
Good thing tor Jack that Lightning would rather stand around and try to look like a stud rather than just getting down to business.
He was destroying the exit behind him. I just recently figured that out lol.
Sometimes when I’m drunk, I pretend to be Lightning Boy zappin shit. But I probably look more like Jack Burton.
Even as a kid I never understood why the dude was doing all those tricks blowing up the roof while everybody escaped
Man! Emperor Palpatine would wreck this fool! 😂
James would make a great Jin Sakai and he's even Japanese/American extra points there 😊
You can bet your ass he didn't consult the elder gods before fucking some shit up lolol
