'Mortal Kombat (2021)'
Lord Raiden - All Scenes Powers & Abilities
An Elder God and the champion of Earthrealm, Lord Raiden grants sanctuary in his temple to those who bear the dragon mark that serves as an invitation to Mortal Kombat. He has assembled a team of champions to battle against the forces of Outworld.
Portrayed by: Tadanobu Asano
Yabushige-sama!
i can't believe that he is Yabushige haha
And Torunaga is Scorpion!
Raiden is like that friend who drives a fancy car and likes to fetch people around
Raiden is a Native American
well he does yell get back in the car (if you know you know)
Illuminati on a broom wears like a raider is technology
Raiden, the bus of the team
😂🤣
Not bus but airplane
😂😂🤣🤣
Raiden is a tuk tuk because the dont need bus or aeroplane 🤣
More like a pesera
Lots of people saying that Raiden from the games is incompetent. Now we saw how an actual incompetent Raiden looks like.
Yeah Lets see the changes in Mk1 the reboot
Christopher Lambert’s Raiden wasn’t much better and game Raiden wasn’t incompetent he just made mistakes
@@LordRevanthePowerful Yeah, that's exactly my point, i don't think NRS Raiden is as incompetent as people state him to be, he's much better when compared to the 2021 version, as i said. About Christopher Lambert, i actually think he was a preety competent Raiden, he gave good advices, he didn't allow other kombatants from outside the Tournament to interfer in it, he protected his own champions from said kombatants etc.
@@LordRevanthePowerfulyou’re wrong about Christopher Lambert.

Feels like such a short part for the god of thunder and one of the most popular characters in the franchise.
At least he has the hat.
@@Juanhernandez-zx7kt looks too big on him imo.
What we need to see, is Raiden like in the final scene of MK9. Actually fighting against the finall boss, and giving it all out.
I mean it is not surprising. He usually functions as the Nick Fury of the Mortal Kombat. He fetches the actual heros and just organizes them. He wasn't actually allowed to participate in the tournament in at least MK 9 and the original movie (I don't know the older game's plots as well). Honestly, the actual Mortal Kombat tournament is the most boring part of the MK games. It is why he has been much better in the games set after the tournament.
Im here for Yabushige Sama ❤
Raiden has always been my favorite. He IS the dude from big trouble but who never died
He did die in 9th game pretty sure
@@VammainenLehmaHe never dies
@@robinleedy7828 in the beginning he does.
From watching Shogun the actor that plays Raiden in this movie would have been a really good Bo-Rai-Cho from his acting and looks in the Shogun Series.
What I like about this Raiden is how he sticks more to what his personality was during the first games of the franchise. It would be great if they exploited him more in a sequel
Almost everything he did was teleport lol
Ikr....he didn't do any actual fighting...sad
@@jamesakwasitempleton213 in lore raidens not really allowed to intervene unless it's dire.
He wasn’t suppose to fight unless the rules were broken
@Double Vision in the game he did lol
@@jamesakwasitempleton213 I thought he was going to fight Shang Tsung but that sadly didn’t happen
Raiden god of teleportation
Fun fact Raiden strikes his lightning wherever he wants and teleports to the end of it
He's the greatest on injustice 2
I feel like they did raiden wrong edit: I'm fine with the actor being Asian but the energy Raiden gave in the game wasn't represented well in the movie.
because you wanted him to be white?
He was actually done totally wrong .
totally wrong
@@wickedhouston5538 exactly. Lambert and Conquest versions were far better. But if we are taking an asian actor, Scorpion’s actor would fit totally
yes actually hurt your childhood image from games and movies, I also felt strange since in all movies and games he was a white, it's like women ghostbusters, but I enjoyed scorpion cause I love asian actor, he did the last samurai movie! It was cool.
Sub Zero and Scorpion might be my favorite character in MK but to me,Raiden is like a character that has a special place for me to favorite...😊⚡
God of thunder is badass
me looking at Raiden from mk11: bro looks lit me witnessing Raiden in the movie: my guy looks shorter
ironic since he's supposed to be like 6 foot
Raiden suppose to be 7 foot
Little baby man
I don't mind Raiden's accent here, but they messed up his personality big time. In the video games, Raiden is depicted as a selfless, kind, leaderly, heroic, inspirational, fatherly figure. This movie, however, portrays him similar to Pai Mei from Kill Bill.
Did you ever played the games? Raiden always was kinda evil. He conquered earth-world in the first one.
100% agree. This Raiden sucks totally.
He acts more like dark raiden way before we got too Deceptions adaptation
Pala bapak kau
@@vasiliypupkin3239 he didnt become evil until Deception (Old Timeline), and MKX (New Timeline)
What are you the god of again? Raiden: transportation, apparently
Raiden's yells are going to be so sick when he finally fights
Raiden in this film iS like a player that doesnt cheat and he know the rules and combo but he just dong want to show it 😂😂
2:29 Raiden: you will return to our world at once Him: jwuabdkudh-- Raiden: zap!😂😂😂
Him = Shang Tsung.
Imagine Raidens light bill every month
Free energy.
Better than solar. 😄
Better question. Should Raiden charge people money for his power?
@@KalebKing88 yeah imagine Raiden turns up to move some people around, but it turns out you're on the hook for the power bill. A few months later, the power company goes bankrupt. Turns out you were 400 billion dollars in credit somehow.
I like the way Raiden Lord say "he talks to much"😂
Lord Raiden The Elder God!!!💖😍❤
They will probably have him play a much bigger part in the next one
The god of thunder. I hope we will get to see his flying mode in the next movie.
Raider could have his own movie but a different actor. This guy just doesn’t have the ethereal look of a Thunder God.
Though he was underutilized, this dude was a solid Raiden
First Mortal Kombat hi
the way raiden said"he talk so much" is so funny
Forward Back, back,back high punch
eu adorei esse mortal combate é simplesmente sensacional ainda não vi esse mortal combate e já estou adorando é um show gostei muito desse vídeo
Nem perca seu tempo é muito ruim
O filme não é muito bom . Mais vale a pena assistir
I hope he does raging bombadae in the sequel
tadanobu asano needs more credits great actor
He became the best Shang Tsung ever!
His greatest performance is as Kakihara in Ichi the Killer. Absolutely iconic.
Best Mortal Kombat Guy
It looks Tanabu Asano, the actor who played Hogan from MCU Thor, is playing the Thunder God, Raiden, like Chris Hemsworth playing the Norse Thunder God, Thor.
I felt that Raiden was a little underused in this, shame too cause he’s one of my favourite MK characters I hope he has a more prominent role in the sequel
My freaking fav ❤
I’m sorry but this Cole Young shit still kills me to this day 🤦🏾♂️
Yeah it’s horrible
Saludos Tremenda pelicula me gustaría que Peliculas como ésas las dieran a menudo Gracias José 🇵🇷❤️🌹
esperando la secuela donde será el torneo y será mucho más combates mejores
I am so glad Raiden is portrayed by a Japanese actor, as he always should have been! This movie wasn’t good but the cast(other than Mileena of course) was on point
That was a horrible accent he sounds weak
@@Chris_da_ruler why
As it really should be, so it's for Raiden to be played by a WHITE actor, but not by an Asian, which the god of thunder was nowhere. this is one time. Secondly, it is not profitable to hire an Asian in principle, at least because they are mostly still quite low, and high in most of them do not have a pumped-up body, while Raiden is 213cm according to the canon, while with a good shape.
You really wanna tell me that you prefer this Raiden more than Christopher Lambert's version?
@@posoborowyposoborowiec8242 the casting yes for sure! But the portrayal no
Yes indeed
Not hating on the actor but he's a miscast for Raiden role. The guy played Scorpion (Sanada) would have been the better Raiden IMO.
Hiroyuki Sanada was the only thing that makes this worth seeing!
Sanada is NOT the type of guy I imagine playing raiden, 1. Sanada is better as scorpion. 2. He’s Japanese, and it wouldn’t give the same feel. I know some people don’t see the difference, but it’s obvious that if raiden did actually have a ethnicity, he would be Chinese instead of Japanese.
@@rememberthatyoumustdie Nope, Raiden was inspired in the Japanese lightining god, Raijin. So, he should've been Japanese.
The made him a good guy in the original MK movie and the character was forever more on that trajectory. Though in the original arcade MK 1 he was a thunder god and a diety and that's all we knew. Perhaps he would have been better sereved as a rogue neutral character - and stayed asiatic, like the Big trouble in little china character he was based on.
Im surprised anyone gets any cardio in the MK universe considering they always just teleport from place to place.
I came here to see raiden movie,he looks like young raiden in mk1(remake/reebot)😅
Shang Tsung in Reiden disguise fights other Shang Tsung to become the only one Shang Tsung in all timelines
90% of this was just teleportation
Which to be fair is OP as fuck
Why the movie made it seem like raiden was afraid of shang tsung in game raiden was so op shang was shitting bricks at the thought of him entering the tournement.
It’s amazing that they created this Character from big trouble in Little China
Yeah that’s crazy
Coughs^ en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raijin
@@Parasmunt yes but cough cough from big trouble in little chins is where the reference that people know it from
@@Parasmunt Also the first Mortal Kombat game was in 1992 big trouble in Little China was in the 80s so that was the first movie reference of this character of course the true origin is probably dated back a long time before that but the first movie reference was big trouble in Little China
I feel that radien is a powerful kombatant no one compares
He’s an Elder God which makes him one of the most powerful characters in the MK Mythos with other gods/immortals and titans such as Fujin, Shinnok, Cetrion, Shao Kahn and Kronika
@@nicktroisi6347He’s not an elder god.
@@yodogarou36talking into consideration the fact that he beat an elder god you can say that he became one
@@Sicario.1924This is literally just a fanfic. Also he beat a fallen elder god.
BE WITH YOUR family
After watching Ichi the Killer…I can’t look at this dude the same😂
The do not f around guy was like it will take more then a car battery to juice me
Raiden is so destructive
I love how his clothes are jaanese and his chinese hat of farmer it's godly one
Até hj todas as atrizes que interpretam a Sonya são lindas 🤩😍😍😍
Verdade. Sonya Blade é a musa do Mortal Kombat assim como a Chun Li do Street Fighter e Mai Shiranui do KOF
God of Entrances
He got time and emsepter for fight love he when he save hanzo family and cole family
Still waiting for the sequel
I guess it's good to have Raiden as an Elder God.
Is he though?
@@lordronn472no
Why? In all of his adaptions, he was only an Elder God once.
The movie got Raiden's look right but I'm surprised by how mean he is compared to other versions.
Uhh is he the reason he got kung lao killed?
@@hackerninjaexe5791, partly the reason.
Why exactly? Raiden has always been depicted as white, why Asian is the right look for him?
Yeah the Raiden from the previous movies had better charisma
They did Raiden soo wrong!
Lmfao!!!
Facts he weak af in here
Jaime bien ❤❤❤
Raiden, sponsored by Eon Next, your local energy provider...
Was looking for the 80s version
I'm on the earth now and talking and I'm fumming
Imma Fan of Lightning-Characters. - Shazam & Raiden are Both My Favourite Characters.
Hopefully there is sequel for this 🙏
Already announced that the sequel is coming!
And hopefully less on Cole "Alice" Young unless MK12 adapts him into the series
0:34 but there tablets are mine- SILENCE!
when you cant be thor in marvel but you can be in mortal kombat
Tiny raiden is adorable. Did he shrink during laundry?
Tadanobu Asano is not so tiny (179 cm). The smallest guy in this movie is Hiroyuki Sanada - Scorpion (168 cm). But yes... In MK games Raiden is 7 feet tall (213.36 cm).
Nice hat
FOR THE UNDERDOGS AND UNDERRATED.✊💯🥰🤭❤️
Old mortal kombat best
RAIDEN EO MAIS FORTE DE TODOSSSSS
I've seen it and it was more like a prequel to the tournament of Raiden recruiting professional fighters from across the globe trying to save the Earthrealm from Shang Tsung and Outworld.
Nice pen
Uau gostei muito deste filme
raiden looks so funny 😜😜🤪🤪😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣😂🤣😂
Cole reminds me of Morty Kombat.
Why is Raiden shown to be nasty in this movie?
Up till now, his chosen warriors failed and died. Didn't have much faith in the current group either.
He always was kinda evil
@@vasiliypupkin3239wrong
What they do with Raiden, my favorite one.. what a shame
Bom dia que Deus abençoe vocês todos aí amém aleluia obrigado 😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇
Pitty not to see he's favourite horizontal strike.
Raiden airlines
Is this the Poundland version of Raiden?
0:27 2:33
Only scenes of him doing something besides teleporting😂💀
We can all agree Christopher Lambert Raiden is still the best one.
But he never consulted the elder gods
Like Storm Spirit in dota
He talks too much. 😂😂 Still a bit of the original Mortal Kombat's Raiden.
Totally agree. The spirit of Lambert lives on.
😍💟👍💞💜💛
I Like The Sound Effects Of His Power
my wariiro
Raiden has never played any major roles in all these movies seems like. Just a neutral party but sneaks in whenever he can to help.
Kakihara!
Named my son after him but his dad wanted it spelled closer to his name so he made me spell it like this (Rayden) instead of (Raiden) 😭 When introducing him everyone always thinks I’m saying Brayden, especially the old people 😅
Raiden is god of thunder and Teleportation
Thor to Raiden: can you lift my mlojhir
@@darentoh322 Not needed to lift mjolnir it himself god of thunder.
Funny how the actor who plays raiden is the face model for shang tsung in MK1
Started watching some of the movies he's in like Ichi the Killer and 47 Ronin. I was genuinely shocked on how accurate his face is in game. What was also cool is he was in '47 Ronin' with Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa.
Raider should start his own Uber he make a killing
