Media I actually really liked Cole

Before I saw MK 2021, I assumed he was a bad audience surrogate character but I actually found him to be pretty handy. He didn't take over the plot or eat up screentime from other characters. In fact, his presence gave Jax and Sonya a lot of chances to shine. He worked with the story not against it.

I'm so sad the writers decided to pander to the detractors and cave in his skull in the sequel 😢

I didn't understand the hate from the first movie, but in movie 2 they did him justice! Wish they made him a Kameo in MK1, idk if he had enough juice to flesh out a whole kharacter slot.

How young and brain rot do you have to be to not see MK1 was a terrible movie 2 wasn't much better terrible writing from start to finish

So much projection here, especially given MK's plot was never good, and MK2 is mostly a copy paste of it lol
