* DumbassHasAPoint: Johnny Cage takes a long time to realize that the situation is ''very real'' and that he is ''not'' filming a movie. However, but when he, Liu Kang, and Sonya encounter Scorpion, Johnny is the one to point out that technically ''nobody among them'' declared Mortal Kombat, meaning there is no reason for any of them to kill each other.

''Mortal Kombat Legends: Scorpion's Revenge'' is an animated direct to video movie based on the ''Franchise/MortalKombat'' video games, and the first film of ''WesternAnimation/MortalKombatLegends'' duology. The plot is as follows:

A sequel, ''WesternAnimation/MortalKombatLegendsBattleOfTheRealms'', was released on August 31, 2021.

* WhiteDwarfStarlet: Johnny Cage is introduced as such in this feature. His framed movie posters and martial arts trophies are juxtaposed with an eviction notice and trash all over. He also has an inflated ego, despite the fact that his agent clearly has not been in touch with him for some time.

** Scorpion is on the receiving end when he meets Quan Chi. He attempts to force the sorcerrer to bring him back to life, and Quan Chi nearly crushes him via MindOverMatter.

* DeathByAdaptation: [[spoiler: Reptile, Kano, Goro, and Quan Chi are all getting killed much earlier than they usually are in the official [=MK=] chronology, while Scorpion's fate is left ambiguous despite letting the island collapse around him.]]

* AdaptationalDumbass: [[spoiler:Quan Chi is this, particularly in the second half. He not only reveals that he killed Scorpion's family ''in front of Scorpion'', but he tries to poison Shang Tsung's drink, who sees his betrayal coming a mile away.]]

* DumbassHasAPoint: Johnny Cage takes a long time to realize that the situation is ''very real'' and ''not'' a movie, but when he, Liu Kang, and Sonya encounter Scorpion - he points out to all of them that technically ''nobody among them'' declared Mortal Kombat, meaning there is no reason for any of them to kill each other.

* SpontaneousWeaponCreation: [[spoiler: In the climatic battle, Quan Chi uses his magic to create swords of green light.]]

* UseTheirOwnWeaponAgainstThem: In the film's climactic battle, [[spoiler:Quan Chi tries to strangle Scorpion with the latter's own [[BladeOnARope rope spears]].]] [[spoiler:Scorpion gets out of the sorcerer's hold by headbutting him.]]

* WeCanRuleTogether: Before Liu Kang's fight with Goro, Shang Tsung makes an offer to Liu Kang to submit to Shao Kahn and be able to live like a king in Outworld.
* WeHardlyKnewYe: [[spoiler: As the Sub-Zero at the beginning of the movie is really Quan Chi in disguise, by the time the real Sub-Zero shows up, not much insight is given into his character or who he really is before Scorpion fights and kills him brutally.]]

** After defeating a Tarkatan, Johnny Cage looks outwards and says "Toasty" a gag introduced since VideoGame/MortalKombat2.

* YouHaveFailedMe: [[spoiler: Shao Kahn is not pleased with Shang Tsung failing to give him victory in the tournament and quotes this trope word for word. We don't see what he did to him but left Shang Tsung with BloodFromTheMouth.]]

''Mortal Kombat Legends: Scorpion's Revenge'' is an animated direct to video movie based on the ''Franchise/MortalKombat'' video games, and the first film of ''WesternAnimation/MortalKombatLegends''. The plot is as follows:

-->'''Quan Chi:''' But please... ''put more of a fight than your wife did!''\\

* ActionGirl: Sonya Blade is a tough as nails woman with military experience which can kick plenty of ass.

** Sub-Zero is a relatively minor example while he still isn't exactly a nice person there is no evidence he had any dealings with Quan Chi, [[spoiler: He also isn't the one who killed Scorpion and while he doesn't get a whole lot of screen time to flesh out his character, it's still clear at the end that Scorpion basically killed an innocent man who had nothing to do with his or his family's murder as evidenced by Sub-Zero's bewildered stare when Scorpion accused him of the crime]].

* AdultFear: Hanzo is forced to endure not only the slaughter of his clan, but of his wife and son (the latter happening right in front of him, no less).
