Entry At the very end of the movie Raiden asks Liu Kang what took them so long. Liu Kang responds with "I guess you knew it would end this way". After this line he continues talking - however there are no words to be heard. [Liu Kand does not continue talking. This was his last line in the movie. It is Rayden who continues to talk and we can see him talking.]
Entry At the end when Johnny Cage fights Goro, Johnny hits Goro between his legs. The shot changes to Lord Raiden saying, "Yes, haha, sorry," and then he smacks the warrior cheering in the crowd, but his lips aren't moving when he says, "Sorry." [You can say sorry without moving your lips, try it, open your mouth and say sorry without moving your lips. It works.]
Entry During Goro's First fight with the black guy, Goro destroys his opponent. After winning the battle, Tsang says, "Flawless Victory." According to the game, in order to get a flawless victory, you have to have a full bar of energy, which usually goes down even if you have been hit once. The black guy hits Goro a couple of times, which would nullify the "Flawless Victory" comment. [This is the movie, not the game.]
Entry There are two lines of people that come out at the big feast. The first shot, you see Sub-Zero leading one and a random soldier leading the other. The shot changes and Scorpion is leading the other. When they meet in the middle, it's just Sub-Zero. When the soldiers run down the steps to flip over tables, Scorpion is there. When it goes back to the top of the steps, it's just Sub-Zero. [The lines come out from both sides of the room. Meaning Sub-Zero was leading the line of soldiers on one side, and Scorpion was leading another line on the other side. When they all move into position and the camera goes to Shang Tsung, he nods to one side, then the other, signaling 2 sides of the room. Then when the camera switches to the combatants standing up while soldiers rush in to push them around, the soldiers are coming from both sides. If you watch the scene there's plenty of evidence of this with any camera angle.]
Entry After Johnny Cage beats up three of the actors and the fourth screws up by forgetting when to fall down Cage's tie comes untucked from his coat. He then turns 180 degrees to complain to the director and his tie is now nice and neatly tucked into his coat again. [If look closely at the bottom of the screen, you can see Johnny Cage tuck his tie back into his jacket, just before he walks off set.]
Entry In the scene where Liu, Kitana, and Johnny go to Outworld to save Sonya, before Liu fights Reptile, the camera shows them walking down the street from a top view. You then see a person with tattered clothing on running across the street. [That's a resident of Outworld, not some random guy who ran across the screen. More of these people in tattered clothing can be seen at the very end of the film when light is shooting out of Shang Tsung's fortress and they congregate around to gaze at it.]
Entry In the scene where Scorpion and Johnny Cage are fighting, Scorpion reaches for the side of his mask to take it off in order to do his 'fatality.' But when it shows a close up of him taking the mask off, he takes it off from the front instead of the side. [Upon closer inspection it doesn't look as if there was any drastic change in where he reaches for his mask. It looks as though his hand is in the same spot for both shots.]
Entry In the end of the scene where Scorpion fights Johnny Cage, Cage is on the ground surrounded by bones and skeletons. Scorpion apears before him, and we see a close up of his face. He moves his hand towards it, as if he was going to remove the mask, but in the next shot, his hand is no longer on his mask, and he does the same movement again. [It only looks like he is moving his hand towards his mask. All that happened was his arm simply went across his face when his was motioning it into the arm-extended, palm-outward position he is in in the next shot.]
Entry In the fight between Johnny and Scorpion, Johnny gets knocked down. He has a clump of dust on the right side of his pants, then when he jumps up to the bar above him, and he swings around getting ready to kick Scorpion, if you look in the same spot the clump of dust is gone. [That is not a clump of dirt. Johnnie Cage's pants are ripped. If you look closely you see the tear.]
Entry At the end of the scene where Johnny Cage fights Scorpion, he fatally injures Scorpion, and makes him bleed and burn. Then just before Scorpion blows up, he jumps away. But how did Johnny know that Scorpion would explode? He didn't know anything about the tournament or the fighters before the event. [He didn't jump away until after Scorpion's head exploded. He probably thought that the rest of him would explode after the head did. In any case, I'd probably jump away too if some burning guy's head exploded in front of me.]
Entry When Johnny Cage and Lui Kang and Sonya are looking for Katina, Johnny Cage says "She has come through here." at the same time, he is pushing cobwebs out of his way. Why would he be doing that when Katina had come through there beforehand? [They were trying to show that Johnny was full of crap. They even say that they smell something, but its not perfume.]
