Did you like the movies' interpretation of Scorp's spear?

That snake thingie coming out of his hand?
Personally i liked it more.

I thought that it added another special ability to him. In the games, Subs special is his freezing ability+ice clone, while Scorp's specials are his fire breathing+spear throw, but the spear throw is not a specific ability given to him from birth. Making him throw a snake instead of a spear kinda complements his move arsenal.
I mean everyone can throw a spear, but few if any can actually throw a spear-shaped snake OUT of their hand. Thats one of the few things that is right in the MK movies.

Id very much like to see Midway adapting the idea into the games.

What do you think?

I hope you noticed that when the snake crashed into the tree in the forest, that meant that Scorpion cannot use his spear anymore. That would make him a bad character.

I love Tims Avatar. :p

I liked when those four sharp things went back. Those fish hook looking things. They looked sharp. But that animal creature thing was wackity smackity.

That'd be hilarious to see one of his spears in the living forest.

Well, the same way he couldve crashed his spear into the tree, which would be even worse, as he wouldnt be able to retract it back to him, leaving him stuck.
Also, he can control the snake's heading, while he can only throw a spear in a straight line.

thus, snake>>>spear

Wouldn't he just pull it back to him rather than relying on some stupid sentient hand snake to come back and not die?

I'm gonna mention a movie that doesn't exist.
In MK Annihilation when Scorpion came out of nowhere, he had two, dragon-like spears, I say that because the head of the spears and the chains were kinda bigger than Scorpions arms. Not to mention that they DID try to make them look like spears, but rather than snakes, they looked more like dragons. I'm not gonna lie...at first, I thought it was okay, but when I realized he'll never have that in the games, I thought it was dumb, plus Spawn was on the air on HBO at the time, so I kinda thought he was ripping off the Spawn chains too.
I'd also like to add (This means you ScorpionMasterWannabee >:D!!) that when Scorpion launched them at Sub - Zero and they exploded when collided to Sub's ice clone, oh yeah, they were dead, and yes, he still couldn't do the spear anymore.
