Loks interesting. Art style is very generic but could have it's charm i guess.

but who the hell uses "extreme violence and bad language" as part of a marketing campaign? Feels like we have gone back 30 years and they're trying to convince us that "adult cartoons" exist...

Ah, the shitty "people made by squares" art style again.

 

[Night.Ninja]

Not a huge fan of the art style

Not the worst animated MK thing I've seen. I actually remember renting the CGI MK movie in the 90's.

I would be excited for this but this is probably where hbo max turns it into an hbo max original (like a netflix original but much worse and even more hackey) quality movie.
