On the 527th episode of Piecing It Together, Robert Yaniz Jr joins me to talk about Mortal Kombat II! As one of the few people who really loved the reboot of this beloved video game movie series, I was super excited for this one. Puzzle pieces include Doom, The Super Mario Bros Movie, Army Of Darkness and Deadpool.
As always, SPOILER ALERT for Mortal Kombat II and the movies we discuss!
Written by Jeremy Slater
Directed by Simon McQuoid
Starring Karl Urban, Josh Lawson, Adeline Rudolph, Joe Taslim, Hiroyuki Sanada
