“For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?”
Irrelevant.
You cannot hope to build a better world without improving the individuals. To that end each of us must work for his own improvement, and at the same time share a general responsibility for all humanity, our particular duty being to aid those to whom we think we can be most useful. -Marie Curie
Entirely relevant. Just because a 5 minute trailer looks good, doesn't mean a 2 hour feature length film on the same subject would work.

And it doesn`t means it wont either, therefore because the comment doesn`t means one thing or the other, it`s entirely irrelevant.

It is relevant. It is one of two possible outcomes -> the trailer is an accurate depiction of the forthcoming series OR the trailer is not an accurate depiction of the forthcoming series. Since we've seen the trailer and we know a full series will be made, one of these outcomes will come out. So the comment is relevant.
“For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer?

So you`re saying that the series might be good or it might be bad? OH MY GOD!, mind = blown.
It honestly sounds like you`re just being negative because it will most likely feature no true supernatural aspects the series is known for, i`m going to quote something that reflects my feelings perfectly one last time, because we`re just spinning in circles right now.

You're still missing the point, which is that the trailer is misleading, since the director himself has stated in an interview (read the interview whydoncha?) that there will be stuff that wasn't in the trailer due to budget reasons. That is completely relevant.
Again, read the interview. They will have supernatural aspects including energy attacks. I'm only being negative to the idea of an MK movie lacking supernatural aspects. The director (and Y it seems) agrees with me.It honestly sounds like you`re just being negative because it will most likely feature no true supernatural aspects the series is known for

There's a new interview with the director, Kevin Tancharoen on GamaSutra. He says the series is going to be nine episodes, running between 7 and 10 minutes each. I'm kind of disappointed that it won't be longer, but hopefully, it's good enough to lead to a film.

G4TV did an interview with Jeri Ryan on the set of the MK web series.

Hmm, I like Michael Jai White. That's about all I can say about this ep.
Now... we can click as warriors... button to button, it is the basis of all internet.
Only a fool trusts his life to a virus.
Anyone else watched it? I'll see about giving it a try tonight.
nothing really happened, mj white was good... it was mostly setting up future eps.

Seemed alright. Some of the action scenes were pretty lame and gave me the impression they could have been a lot better if given the proper budget and production values.

I remember the actor that plays Kano. He's in Ip Man 2 playing Taylor "The Twister" Milos, the worldchamp boxing. Should make up for some good action.
