So its been awhile since I posted. I have a few scene rewrite ideas from the 1995 movie Mortal Kombat with Sonya vs Kano. Afterwards will you tell me what you think?
Kano vs Sonya
Scene 1: Kano and Sonya's introduction in the film
Sonya and her team are on Kano's tail which leads her to a rave party. They make there way through the crowd as they are being watched by Kano. Kano then turns to Shang Tsung and tells him to enjoy the show. Shang Tsung reminds him, not to kill Sonya, as she is wanted at the Tournament.
Her partner (NOT Jax) spots Kano and radios to Sonya to inform her as he goes after him.
Sonya catches up on the upper levels but is blocked by a huge thick glass wall. Her team are occupied with Kano's underlings, but Sonya is trying to make her way in. She sees her partner fighting with Kano, who is pretty much toying with him. Kano eventually gets the upperhand and beats him. Sonya is trying her best to get in but is unable to. All while she sees her partner getting beaten. Kano grabs her partner and he presses his bloody face up against the glass. He then stabs him in the back and slits his throat from "ear to ear" to Sonya horror. Kano give her a smirk and walks off. She finally shoots the glass able to break through, but Kano is gone and she holds her lifeless partner in her arms. At that moment one of Kano's underlings rushes rushes in and tries to attack, but Sonya shoots him. She tries to question him about where Kano is going. But the thug dies before she gets any answer.
Scene 2: The Dock-Ship to Shang Tsungs' Island.
Sonya is seen at the Docks with Jax. She informs him that this intel better be right that Kano will be there as she scans the area through her binoculars. Jax tells her, he hopes he is, but they should've called in for back up. Just then Sonya spots Kano.
Kano is in a small dark building just barely in the doorway. His Red Cybernetic Eye can be seen glowing in the dark. As the dock workers are working sparks are flying which brighten up the room to reveal Kano staring at Sonya.
-Kano says to himself, "That's right baby, you see me now. All you gotta do is follow me!"
Just then a huge fog rolls in and a large but old creepy ship arrives catching everyone's attention.
Kano then exits the building and all while staring at Sonya's location, baiting her to follow. Sonya takes the bait and runs off, leaving Jax behind as he tells her to hold up for back up. But it's to late, she manages to make it on board as the ship disembarks.
Scene 3: A taste of what's to come.
As Shang Tsung feeds his guest, suddenly the room is filled with Masked Guard. Kano can be Scene in the background spying on Sonya while he drinks as they watch the demonstration given by Shang Tsung's men. He takes off just before Sonya turns around and looks at where he was standing. After the demonstration is over, Sonya goes and wanders around looking for Kano but is accompanied by Liu Kang and Johnny Cage.
After getting lost, they stumbled into a corridor where Sonya spots Kano eating and talking to someone. It is revealed the other figure is none other than Goro, Shang Tsung's Champion. Kano runs his mouth to Goro's annoyance. Goro approaches Kano and tries to intimidate him. Kano is clearly anxious but manages to get Goro to back down. Kano mentions he can't wait to get fully paid and get off the island. Goro agrees!
Scene 4 (Part1): Tournament Showdown!
After a few of the matches Shang Tsung introduces a competitor on front of the audience. He then announces his opponent would be Kano! Sonya could barely compose herself as she jumped up and yelled that he is a wanted Mercenary and Murderer. Shang Tsung agrees but reminds Sonya, that this is his island and that he is a competitor like the rest and she has no jurisdiction her and that she should just enjoy the entertainment.
Kano makes his way onto the arena floor and taunts Sonya, that they'll have their moment but she should just enjoy the fight because he knows how much she likes to watch (a reference to him killing her partner, as she was helpless to do anything but watch)
Shang Tsung starts the fight:
- The opponent rushes in at Kano who sidestep the attack. The opponent turns and attacks. Kano blocks all the attacks, laughing while doing so. The opponent continues to attack and lands a hit, which infuriates Kano. Kano wipes the blood from his lip then closes the distance with a cross to head, then hits with a body shot. Kano then grabs the opponents head and knees them followed by an uppercut. The bloody opponent spits up blood and Kano continues his attack. He is brutal and merciless. Some of the crowd cheer and others are stunned, but Shang Tsung is smiling as he looks around. Shang Tsung calls it and tells Kano to FINISH HIM!!!
Kano grabs the opponent, lifts him up, looks at Sonya and than proceeds to repeatedly headbutt the opponent until his head caves in and blood is spewing everywhere. Kano drops the lifeless body and blows a Bloody Kiss at Sonya and walks off the arena laughing maniacally!
Scene 5 (Part 2): Rival Showdown
Later in the film after many more fights happened. Sonya is preparing for her battle. Shang Tsung stands up and tells Sonya, he has a gift for her.
-Sonya replies, " She wants nothing from him"
-Shang replies, "On the contrary, I have exactly what you want" he then gestures, pointing to the background
Kano come walking out of a corridor.
Sonya's face turns from annoyed to angry.
Kano walks on the arena and pulls out his knife and says,
•Kano- well look at this, this is familiar isn't it?
•Sonya- what you use it to stab your mother in the back?
• Kano- Nah, but it put a big smile on your partner though (gestures with the knife slicing his throat from Ear to Ear).
Kano snarks and without warning slices at Sonya but she dodges and the two lock up. Kano laughs, telling Sonya, to give it up, he's studied her and knows all her moves. Sonya retaliates by telling Kano to "Study This" as she kicks him in the gut. Sonya gets the upperhand early, attacking with a Barrage of punches and kicks. She is cheered on by Liu Kang and Johnny Cage. She continues her advance but Kano has yet to go down as he is a tough and durable fighter. Eventually Sonya misses an attack and its the opportunity Kano needs to capitalize on. He grabs her hair and throws her down. While down, he kicks her in the ribs knocking the breath out of her. He then grabs her by the hair again and pulls her up and tells her, "Now its his turn to have fun!"
He smacks her in the face, and then kicks her in the back knocking her down. Picking her up again, he hits her with a series of heavy body shots that makes everyone on the crowd feel it. He headbutts her and and her blood spews on his face. He continues his vicious assault then grabs her from behind and performs a brutal German Suplex leaving her folded up on the ground. As she struggles to crawl away to gain space. Kano pulls out his knife and tells her, "This was fun luv' but its time it ends!" As he grabs her and places the the knife to her neck. Shang Tsung yells at Kano not to. This distraction provided Sonya with the opening she needed, she's elbowed him in the balls! Than she uppercutted him, sending him staggering back. As he regained his balance and prepared to attack again, Sonya was already in a mid move and flipped on Kano's shoulders and repeatedly punched and elbowed his head gushing out blood. She leaned back and flipped Kano over with her legs still locked around his neck. She applied pressure ready to snap his neck.
Shang Tsung stood up and told her to FINISH HIM! She snapped out of her rage and instead, let go. Kano exhaustingly laughed and told her, "Thanks Luv'!" She replied with a smug, "Your Welcome Mate" and kicked him unconscious!
Liu Kang and Johnny Cage ran onto the arena and embraced her. They asked her what about Kano? She said she will have him apprehended and taken to the dungeon until they're ready to leave island.
Scene 6: Post Credit
After the defeat of Shang Tsung and the Heroes returned home, Sonya figure Kano was trapped and lost on the Island. Kano still imprisoned, on the island. A portal opens up and a mysterious voice ask him if he'd like to get rich. Kano still bloodied looks up and smirks and say, 'Bloody hell I do"
End of the scenes I'd rewrite for the 1995 Mortal Kombat movie for Kano and Sonya. What do you think?
