it's dark, cool, but other then that is ass. They shouldn't take out the mystical shit in it. All they gotta do is make shang tsung a necromancer and have jax and sonya as part of a special ops team -not police- researching these rare killings and weird shit like a Moulder and scully that kick ass. And have the Asian characters like Liu Kang and shit move to America to look for shang tsung because his clan has been fighting this sort of shit for centuries. Basically, it's not that hard to keep the lore on track. Instead of different realms they just practice dark arts, which could explain alot of shit.
