The Punisher
 
Any thoughts on how the Punisher will do this weekend...I for one am actually looking forward to going to this movie should be good.

Peanut 04-14-2004 08:59 AM

It looks like a real old skool action movie. Without all the CGI and what not. I'm looking forward to it.

Brodie 04-14-2004 09:01 AM

I'm looking forward to it, I'm anticipating this more than Spidey2.

Taloniss 04-14-2004 09:04 AM

I'll be there opening day. It looks really good. Sadly, I think Kill Bill will be number 1, but hopefully Punisher can get a nice number 2 opening.

Peanut 04-14-2004 09:11 AM

Yeah Kill Bill will be #1. Let's just hope The Punisher does well enough so Marvel's movie track record keeps on the up and up. Really I'm not expecting a lot other than to watch some decent action scenes and I'm sure this movie will deliver. When you don't expect much the movie usually turns out much better.

S.S.D.D. 04-14-2004 09:11 AM

No doubt should be a good flick...

Mars-Chan 04-14-2004 09:41 AM

Most definately looks like a movie I want to see....

.....

....AFTER "Van Helsing". :lol:

S.S.D.D. 04-14-2004 09:48 AM

Van Helsing should be good as well

Mars-Chan 04-14-2004 10:58 AM

I'm going to see it opening day.

....*long pause*

but this is getting off-subject! :lol:


Definatley looks like a good Marvel comic movie.

S.S.D.D. 04-14-2004 11:44 AM

Should be a good weekend for the box office.

Brodie 04-14-2004 11:54 AM

It looks classy. Like the tragedy of a loss in the family, and the hero that comes out because of it. ....But it begs the question "Does someone always need to die to make a hero?"

Spider-Man
Hellboy (Becoming a hero after Butterholm died)
Punisher
Spawn
so on
so on...

愛 04-14-2004 11:58 AM

I'll see Kill Bill Vol. 2 before I go see Punisher. It looks quite promising.

Anarky 04-14-2004 12:16 PM

movies i'm gonna watch when they come out here:

- the punisher
- Spider-man 2
- Hellboy
- dawn of the dead
- Kill Bill II

and there are some more but i can't remember them right now

Barkworm 04-14-2004 12:27 PM

I'm looking forward to the Russian fight, I loved that in the comic book! :D

S.S.D.D. 04-14-2004 01:52 PM

I am looking forward to it because it basically is vigilante Justice...

Raven 04-14-2004 03:23 PM

i cant wait for this movie, it looks really good.

Voltron 04-14-2004 03:47 PM

I just want to see a Yakuza Geisha Crime Queen take a knife to the forehead again.

host_punktmy 04-14-2004 04:33 PM

i wont go so far to say i want to see it more then spidey 2 but it does look like a kick ass old school action flick

ZariusTwo 04-14-2004 08:54 PM

Looks like "Ain't It Cool" News watched the film...and gave it the review I kind of saw coming.

MW8979 04-14-2004 08:56 PM

Too bad they'll never make an Iron Man film. He's one of the better Marvel characters.

So far "The Punisher" is the only blip on Marvel's movie radar, their other efforts have been classics that comic fans aprpeciate, though "Hulk" is thrashed way too much whilst plotless popcorn fodder like "Daredevil" gets a free pass.

Un...freaking..beleivible.

Peanut 04-14-2004 09:29 PM

I actually had a great disliking for Daredevil as where I thought Hulk was amazing. Especially when the Hulk was actually around. Why is Punisher a "blip" already? I've seen reviews that have praised the movie as a great straight out action movie.

愛 04-15-2004 12:58 AM

If it's just straight up action with nothing but killing, sign me the HELL up.

Barkworm 04-15-2004 01:14 AM

Some parts of Daredevil were great, others were so bad, that words cannot describe it (like the fight scene between Matt and Elektra, ugh!).
I'm still looking forward to the Punisher movie, since I have also read some quite positive reviews.

Exactly, one bad review is nothing.

And, they're working on getting an Iron man movie into prodcution. Tom Cruise has showed interest in the part.

I thought they were working on an Iron Man film? If you go to http://www.ign.com and then the movies section, they are always talking about it.

This weekend, I am going to see Kill Bill Vol. 2. I wasn't too impressed by the Punisher trailer, so I will wait to hear what other people have to say about it before I go see it.

Taloniss 04-15-2004 09:04 AM

Ok, I read the review and the guys main points was that they changed the origin and there's humour. Well, EVERY Marvel comic book movie has changed the origin to some degree. That's nothing new. And, there's humour in the comic that the movie is based on (Welcome back, Frank) so if you didn't like that comic, you probably aren't going to like the movie.

And, reading the comments afterwords (some of which are hilarious), all the other sites that have reviewed the movie have given it postive reviews.

I guess that's not too bad, not my ideal choice for Iron Man, but whatever. Nonetheless, it's great how there's this big explosion of Marvel movies in the last few years after 2000. It's a good thing Stan Lee held out all these years until CGI arrived and resisted the urge to cash in on his work by making poor special effects movies (such as Captain America) that would rate as cheese then and as complete crap now.

cant believe you said that. captain america is one of the greatest comics to film ever made. that and spiderman are my favorites. captain america just being a little beter than x-2.

Mobius One 04-15-2004 01:58 PM

Im seein that movie tomorrow, and it looks really good. I'm not sure if its going to be as good as the original, but hey, I'm still gonna see it. The only thing that bothers me is that John Travolta is in it, which I don't like because I wish there weren't any big name people in it, because i think that takes away from the movie a little.

host_punktmy 04-15-2004 02:54 PM

Iron Man sucks

anyway I'd rather see the movie for myself. If i would have listened to what people said about the mtrix 2 and 3 i would have missed the best movie of all time... you know who you are matrix haters... die

Peanut 04-15-2004 03:02 PM

I haven't seen Matrix 3 but #2 blew. I've watched it twice compared to the 34298792872 times I've watched the first one.

host_punktmy 04-15-2004 03:06 PM

I've seen reloaded about 9999999999999999999999999999999 times..... i saaw it twice last night

Barkworm 04-15-2004 03:10 PM

Matrix 1 is absolutely awesome, Reloaded is pure ********, Revolutions is a lot better than Reloaded but still bad.

host_punktmy 04-15-2004 03:12 PM

This has to be one of the most mature comments you ever made. :wink:
