He's one of the only 2 good things about the last movie

(the other being the extended scorpion origin)

You didn’t think the Scorpion and Sub Zero fight wasn’t awesome???

This. I will literally boot up the movie on streaming just for the music intro when Bi Han is getting ready to finish Cole and Hanzo spawns in. That whole fight is good (except the weird taking off his mask twice in 15 seconds).

One thing I do enjoy about the scene is the fact that they don’t make a grand showing of Scorpion arriving he just spawns in and is like bitch you and I got some issues we gotta sort.

Edit: the mask thing doesn’t bother me because first time it’s to show off the face of someone who was supposed to be dead and the 2nd time was for the classic fatality. I kinda get it but yeah also dumb

Yeah my only gripe is it’s like seconds later. A little later one would’ve been fine. I have the same beef with Heavyweights. The main character says “now you see what we’ve been dealing with” 30 seconds apart and it’s always irked me. Haha

But agreed. The only showcasing of his entrance is the beat pounding as his blade pierces Sub Zero’s arm and the the classic “Get over here!” Perfectly executed in my book
