The all-new, feature-length film Mortal Kombat Legends: Scorpion’s Revenge hit Digital this week, produced by Warner Bros. Animation in coordination with NeatherRealm Studios. Yes, that means the characters from Mortal Kombat essentially now exist in the same animated world as the characters from Looney Tunes, and Warner Bros. is having some fun with that.
Uploaded to YouTube by Jason Nguyen this week, the WB logo animation for Scorpion’s Revenge has been customized Mortal Kombat-style, with Scorpion executing a deadly “Get over here!” maneuver on none other than Daffy Duck. The iconic Mortal Kombat character bursts out of the WB logo and pulls Daffy straight to Hell, presumably delivering a Fatality.
Best WB intro animation since Gremlins 2? We think so. Check it out below!
