Don't run rampage yet, but I have a Theory that are 80% percent correct!

If you are a huge fan of Mortal Kombat, you should watch the American Martial Arts Classic, Enter The Dragon!!

If you have seen this great movie, you will understand what I am talking about now!! If you have not seen this fine epic, you should at once!!

THEORY: (80%)
Mortal Kombat camed to life from Enter The Dragon! How i know that is cause MK and ETD has the same story! Both is about a Tournement leaded by a cruel Emperor! Midway had even plans to make an Enter The Dragon fighting-game, but it never happened! Instead they used "ETD"'s ideas to make a twin-story, Mortal Kombat! Below you'll see how the characters camed to life:

ENTER THE DRAGON/MORTAL KOMBAT

SHAOLIN MONK: Bruce Lee-Liu Kang!
EMPEROR: Mr.Han-Shao Kahn!
ONE EYED-MAN: Oharra-Kano!
STRONG GIANT: Bolo-Goro!
B-FIGHTER: Williams-Jax!
SHAOLIN MASTER: Lee's Boss-Raiden!
LEE'S BEST FRIEND: Roper-Kung Lao!

EXTRAS:

(NOT FROM "ETD"!)

Johnny Cage-Jean Claude Van Damme!
Sonya Blade-Cynthia Rothrock!

(The Movie is specialy from the classis Mortal Kombat story, MKSM! This is how MK camed to life, through "ETD"!)

A plausable theory you have there my friend, didn't think of any similarities until you said.
One question though...Who The hell is Cynthia Rothrock?

Fact I:- #1 MK Fighter = Mileena
Fact II:- My usename has nothing to do with the actual Red Dragon clan of MK
Fact III:- Most favourite MK game ever is Mortal Kombat Deception
Fact IV:- #1 Video game = Grand Theft Auto IV

She is a famous Kung-Fu Hero that began training when she was 13 years old on Kickboxing! She was a champion on 5 long years! She also have black belts in Chinese and Korean Martial Arts! Great fighter indeed! She was the inspiration behind Sonya Blade! But she is far from my favorite Martial Artist!!

Good Theory, Its pretty much true too.

Unless if you count Game Of Death to be the first story
taking place during a tournament, but that was never really
finished.

Still, its a great Kung Film.

As far as i know, Bruce Lee died when filming Game Of Death! Game Of Death is a great movie, but it could (of course) have been so much better if Mr.Lee had been the actor of Billy Lo all the time! When you watch the movie, its not difficult to see when the character changes from Lee to another actor! I think Billy Lo is played by 3 actors in the movie! Anyways, yes, great movie!

Also I'm not sure if you noticed, Quentin Tarintino used
his outfit on Kill Bill Vol 1 as a tribute.

You know you could just hit "Edit Post" rather than triple post.

Ohh...now i understand why i felt i had seen that outfit twice! I remember when Kill Bill (Vol-1) first camed, there was something familiar with her (Beatrix Kiddo) outfit!

Thats also a great movie, but no match against Bruce Lees!

Very nice,but according to midway the game is based off Bloodsport,with (indeed) Jean-Claude van Damme,he was originally going to be in MK,but because he was busy,it was about Liu Kang instead,Johnny Cage was kept as a homage to van Damme.
