1
So, you got a new
2
Mortal Kombat movie for me?
3
Yes, sir, I do.
4
Uh, you know what?
5
Maybe this is gonna make people wanna go re -watch the first one to prepare.
6
Eh, I wouldn't.
7
What's that?
8
Probably fine if they don't.
9
Well, okay then.
10
So anyway, we're gonna start this movie in this place called Edenia.
11
I thought Cole was from Earthrealm.
12
Cole?
13
Cole, that guy we made up to lead the first movie, he was the main character.
14
Oh, right, Cole, yeah.
15
Well, it turns out people didn't love
16
that we focused the movie on some guy we made up rather than all the characters
17
that were already established that people liked.
18
Really?
19
Yeah.
20
Yeah, so in this one, he just, Cole gets killed quite violently in his first fight.
21
He's taken care of.
22
Well, I should hope so, if he's going to be compromising my bottom line.
23
So we're going to meet a young Katana who's the daughter of a king.
24
She's from the games.
25
She sure is, sir.
26
But this freaking bad guy, Shao Kahn, wants to kill her dad and unite the realms.
27
Er, uniting realms is tight.
28
I don't know how you managed to make that sound slightly inappropriate, but you did it.
29
I did it.
30
So he freaking kills this guy and Katana's upset.
31
But that's tough toodles for her because now she's this guy's daughter.
32
How does that work?
33
He kills her dad and he says, you're my daughter now.
34
That'll do it.
35
That'll work.
36
So fast forward 20 years.
37
I don't have the ability to do that.
38
That's okay.
39
I did it all pretend like with words.
40
Oh, that's so neat.
41
So Katana's fake dad is like, well, about time to start the Mortal Kombat tournament, wouldn't you say?
42
Oh yeah, Mortal Kombat is a tournament.
43
Remind me, didn't we put a tournament in the first movie?
44
No. Seems like a major oversight.
45
Why didn't we do that?
46
We were, like, really into that coal guy we made up.
47
That was so weird of us.
48
A little bit.
49
So anyway, if Shao Kahn wins this tournament, his realm gets to take over Earthrealm.
50
I have no further questions about the logistics of that kind of deal.
51
Well, that's great, because I have no further answers.
52
Well, this is perfect.
53
So freaking Raiden is hanging out with four fighters, but they need five fighters if they want to fight in this tournament, which they do.
54
Well, four plus Raiden, isn't that.. that's five.
55
Raiden's not gonna fight, but he's a fighter in the games.
56
It won't even be considered, and no one will mention it.
57
Fair enough.
58
So they find this washed -up 90s action movie star, Johnny Cage.
59
He does the splits and punches people in the nuts!
60
He sure does, sir.
61
So frickin' Sonya from the game shows up and she's like, don't you want to realize your full potential?
62
And he's like, no. More like Johnny Cage -y, classic reluctant hero behavior.
63
Is he ever gonna realize his full potential?
64
Yeah, at the end of the movie!
65
I knew it!
66
So then the Mortal Kombat tournament starts, and Katana's chosen as the first fighter for the bad guys.
67
Oh, you know what?
68
I bet she's secretly a good guy, what with this guy having killed her dad and then being her dad.
69
Yep, yep, yep, yep, yep, obviously not even trying to hide that.
70
So Johnny Cage gets freaking lightning portaled to this fight.
71
Uh -oh, lightning portals.
72
And so the whole thing is if either side loses five times, it's over.
73
And there we got like torches in the sky representing the winds.
74
Excuse me?
75
Ten torches floating in the sky, five blue, five red.
76
Torches floating?
77
They lightning portal people into death matches.
78
You don't think they could figure out how to make some torches float to keep track of the score?
79
I guess.
80
If anyone watching wants to know the score, they just gotta look at these torches.
81
You gotta think about this kind of stuff when you're organizing a death tournament.
82
Okay, I was just wondering how they floated.
83
Listen, sir, I've said the word realms several times already, and that means I don't need to explain a dang thing.
84
That is how that word works.
85
Okay, yeah, I'm all good now.
86
So Katana kicks Johnny Cage's butt so bad that he's, like, wobbling in place.
87
That's from the game!
88
And Shao Kahn, who's watching, yells, FINISH HIM!
89
That's from the game.
90
But Katana takes too long, so he just falls over.
91
Oh, that's from the game, but, like, in a disappointing way.
92
Yeah.
93
Didn't smash the right buttons in time, it sounds like.
94
And then later, Kung Lao shows up at Raiden's place.
95
Oh, good guy with the razor hat from the first movie.
96
What's he been up to?
97
He's a zombie for the bad guys now.
98
It do be like that sometimes.
99
Yeah, so he's here to steal Raiden's god power
100
so he can put it in an amulet and make Shao Kahn immortal so he can win the Mortal Kombat tournament.
101
Oh man, stealing Raiden's powers seems like it's gonna be hard to do.
102
He's like a freaking god.
103
Actually, it's gonna be super easy.
104
Barely an inconvenience.
105
Oh really?
106
Yeah, just goes ahead and slashes his throat.
107
Oh my god.
108
And that just makes the god juice start pouring out.
109
You know, just bright light juice squirting everywhere.
110
That stuff stains.
111
So the bad guys take Raiden's god juice and put it in the amulet.
112
Ehh, stealing some guy's god juice is tight.
113
Oh god, oh whoa.
114
I did it again!
115
Anyway, so then a bunch of people violently kill each other for a long period of time.
116
And we bring back a bunch of dead people from the first movie.
117
I don't, you know, like, why not?
118
How?
119
Realms.
120
Got it.
121
So Kano, who's back from the dead, explains that Sub -Zero, who's back from the dead,
122
It has the amulet, and he went into the nether realm.
123
Sounds like the kind of place where anything goes.
124
It better be.
125
Oh, it's a threatening vibe now.
126
So they go find
127
Sub -Zero's nemesis, Scorpion, who's chilling in his nether realm garden, just tending to it.
128
Tending to the garden of your own personal nether realm is tight.
129
That's what, okay, three tights is more than enough.
130
I'm just seeing where the limits are, and now I know.
131
So anyway, then, you know, a bunch of the good guys get together, a bunch of the bad guys turn good.
132
Katana slices her fake dad's head off, and that's it.
133
Fatality.
134
Oh, someone should say fatality.
135
No, not ever in the whole movie.
136
Ah, dang it.
137
So what do you think?
138
Well, I mean, we're kicking off summer 2026 movie season in a crazy way.
139
Everybody's going to want to see the punchy, kicky movie with floating torches.
140
Amazing.
141
And I checked.
142
There is nothing on the slate for May 2026.
143
There's nothing.
144
Like, what?
145
If we don't win the box office for the full month, it's because something weird happened, okay?
146

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?

Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
