    Essentially it’s the actor who played Balrog talking about it as though it were the single greatest and most significant event in the history of western culture.

    Yknow who was super nice

    The guy who did the motion capture for Johnny Cage in the original Mortal Kombat game

    I met him at a con, and he was the most personable, social guy

    Delivered with the gravitas both the role and the experience deserve.

    Balrog isn't even the coolest character in that movie.

    For him it was the greatest film role of his life, but for me, it was a punchy man!

    Oh my god

    "So how did I become Balrog? Well, there are two versions: my experiences, and the version [director] told my wife..."

    *moves on and never elaborates*

    what in the fuck

    Well, I mean, how can you be the coolest when you're up against Raul Julia?

    But he lost to Gandalf.
