Im watching mortal combat and some of the scenes remind me of the warcraft movie.
Shang Tsung and Guldan similarly suck the souls out of their victims
And
Goro and Johnny cage have a fight similar to lothar and blackhands mokgora. Cage ducks and kicks goro in the balls
also read that crawg, the beasts in nazmir, bear a slight resemblance to rancors from star wars. But I believe they look more like Shriekers from Tremors 2
