This breakdown was quite useful. I had no idea the complexity of the techniques used.

I thought Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat button-combos were hard, I'll never attempt an MMA videogame

First off, are Power Rangers really saluting under a swastika?

And second, the Charlie Brown theme song to the Mortal Kombat guys was perfect!

Violence is touched on in the 90's at 43:00 but the focus is on the innovation of Street Fighter 2 and Doom and again it 47:45 with Mortal Kombat, Night Trap and the US Senate Hearings that led to the ESRB rating system. The pace of the narrative is still compelling as this was an important leap forward where game graphics could be represented by photographic imagery. Let's face it, the violence controversy formed a major part of the evolution of video games.

If you can't stand to hear about Columbine again, skip 52:00 to 54:00. Glen Beck chimes in on GTA at 1:11:00, but he doesn't steal the spotlight.

When it comes down to a fair fight, Batman loses against anyone that doesn't just fight hand to hand and/or has a healing factor / super strength. But that's not what Batman's true power is. These idiot fanboys and their value system based on Street Fighter / Mortal Kombat bullshit. 3, 2, 1 -- Fight!

No, no, no, humans: His true strength delves into something which can only be whittled down via the collapse of Earth itself: Economic superiority. But even then, he's the Ritchie Rich of superheoes and would likely be able to rebuild his wealth on another planet.

All Batman needs to do is acquire an object of immense power and then employ it against whoever it is he's up against. He doesn't even need to fight but chooses to fight. If he's fighting Superman, obtain kryptonite -- or hell, gain access to the Siege Perilous and then just destroy the mind of whatever passes through it. He's friggin' Bruce Wayne and has a vast web of connections, bolstered by his income, which can get him ANYTHING.

Anyway. There are cosmic entities which have a greater pull of resources than Batman so let's match Batman's economic superiority (he's basically an army) against an actual threat backed by near infinite resources, such as the Negative Zone's Annihilus, Titan's Thanos, a time traveler like Kang the Conqueror, or the hive mind of the Phalanx.

Hell, I'd love to see Batman hack Galactus' base of operations and then invade and divert cosmic consonance.

But this pussy footing Batman VERSUS Deadpool is moot. Batman VERSUS anyone in a normal match up is stupid. Elevate your understanding.

It needs Mortal Kombat sounds and voices! "Finish her!"

A "fighting type of movie" is found in Mortal Kombat or Street Fighter... or anything by JCVD. Gladiator is not in this category. Unless you just ffwd to all the parts where someone was fighting?

I don't remember any soft padded surfaces in Mortal Kombat.

That's great. How high are they jumping?

It looks like they're doing a Liu Kang flying kick from Mortal Kombat. I've never seen someone do the high jump like that.

I learned recently from some commercial on TV that before someone decided to start jumping over it backwards in the Olympics, people used to do the high jump facing sideways as if kind of stepping forward over it.

For good measure, here's a real flying guillotine:

The definition of AWESOME. Without this and Enter the Dragon we'd have no Street Fighter or Mortal Kombat!!


Exactly. It is beyond obvious that this was one of the inspirations behind both games.

This made me really nostalgic. Not just the pixel art, but the music too.

Playing the SNES in a video game haze to a background of melancholic 90's rock, buoyant punk and grunge apathy; smoking too much; drinking cheap beer and vodka (and whatever else we could get our hands on).

Waking up on an old sofa chair bathed in dimly flashing colours and quiet, looping chip music.

Super Metroid; Prince of Persia; A Link to the Past; Secret of Mana; Mortal Kombat and Super Mario Kart.

Spider-Man and Wolverine comics, and Kerrang! on the floor.

And an otherwise, abject poverty.


Seems like another life now.

Well, that looks hilarious. Reminds me of http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Quick_and_the_Dead_(1995_film) but mixed with mortal kombat. Good times.
