Series Description

Mortal Kombat: Legacy brings to life the complex and rich history of the gaming world of MORTAL KOMBAT. Shao Kahn and Shang Tsung are obsessed with reigning over various realms (parallel universes) and the winners of Mortal Kombat competitions are granted supreme control over these worlds. The Earthrealm (Earth) is an unconscious participant in this competition and only a few select humans understand the consequences of losing Mortal Kombat and what it will mean to Earth. In a universe with powerful evil sorcerers, cyborgs, Gods and movie stars, this Mortal Kombat digital media series drives a cohesive understanding of what this Universe is all about.
 
Episode 6 Synopsis
"Raiden"

The following episode represents director Kevin Tancharoen's "different take on the Mortal Kombat universe," combining the perfect amount of gritty realism mixed with a hint of mysticism... When Lord Raiden, God of Thunder and protector of Earth, finds himself in an earthly mental institution in the year 2011, his 'delusions' are treated with some rather primitive forms of therapy (involving an ECT machine and an ice pick).  Nonetheless, Blue, his beautiful, fragile yet insane fellow inmate, is Raiden's only hope of escaping the mental hospital and making his way to the Mortal Kombat tournament to defend Earthrealm from Shao Khan.

For what I've seen in this video, Raiden has suffered SOOO SOOO much. Poor Raiden

[HeartStrong4ever]

Remember that for Raiden to interact with mortals of Earthrealm, he has to temporarily surrender being a god (making him mortal, too) as a rule from the elder gods. Shao Kahn in the movie Annihilation broke this rule, if you`ve seen it, and thus was removed of all powers. This is a different take & story on Mortal Kombat, but I`m sure the basic rules still apply. Hope this clears things up. :)

[HeartStrong4ever]

Which I guess is ok but I remember years ago Ed Boon once said "We didn`t want it to make it reality, nobody pays to see reality" and I am with him on that, especially for MK. This is a nice take, though, much better than the 8min trailer video that showed up long prior to this. They thrown in the mysticism in it after an outcry. heh

[Adam Kerr]

Yes but still... I don't know I just don't think it works well with Raiden, and it could of worked better with a number of other characters

[Ash Jags]

Isn't it obvious that he was in a weakened state?

[Adam Kerr]

Mortal Kombat Legacy is awesome but this episode, kind of ruined it a little for me... Don't get me wrong with a lot of other characters it might of worked, but Raiden is a Thunder god -_- , and in the MK universe, gods are pretty strong, I highly doubt they could sedate him -_-

[DeQuince Allen]

Today I learned that adding realism to anything makes it 3x darker.

[Patrick Gonzales]

He set it up for making the whole series a figment of "raiden's" imagination. Pretty creative, and a good twist imo. Unfortunately, not very subtle. Still, props for making it his own.

[enderkev]

WHY CAN'T HE JUST TELEPORT OUT OF THERE

[CzechMate44]

He's vomiting blue shit?

Blue goo is coming out when we lobotomize him?

Nahhh, he's gotta be a normal human
