My soldiers will escort you to the temple of elements. You will open the gates and bring me what's inside. Then my brothers and sister will see how mad I really am. (Scorpion: Or?) Or I will flay you alive until you perish. And then bring you back to do it again, you cannot escape me.
~ Shinnok threatening Scorpion.

Shinnok is one of the two overarching antagonists (alongside Shao Kahn) of the 2020 direct-to-video animated movie Mortal Kombat Legends: Scorpion's Revenge, one of the two main antagonists (alongside Shao Kahn) of the 2021 direct-to-video animated movie Mortal Kombat Legends: Battle of the Realms, and the main antagonist of the 2023 direct-to-video animated movie Mortal Kombat Legends: Cage Match.
