Punisher update!
 

Not sure how much impact this will have, but latest news on the new "Punisher" movie has none other than KEVIN NASH (Super Shredder from TMNT2) playing a role in the film. Last night, Nash lost a "Hair vs Hair" match to Chris Jericho on WWE Raw, and his much-adored mane was cut down to a military-style crewcut. Today, it was revealed that Nash had scored a role in "The Punisher", and the role required him to cut his long brown hair to a short blonde crewcut.

I know that I will definitely be seeing this movie now.

Just for completist sake, aside from playing Super Shredder, Nash was also up for the role of Sabertooth in the first X-Men film, but was passed over in favor of Tyler Mane... who was Nash's tag partner for a time back in WCW in 1992. Funny how life works, aint it?

not funny....its just...Nash?..is not an actor..nor..can he act.

HHH will also be scoring a role in the upcoming new conan movie...more bad casting..

anyone see him in the Y2stinger commericals?..ha what a joke...

Wrestlers shouldnt act !

But Nash isn't just a wrestler... he's Kevin Nash, God amongst ants! His hair is as legendary as his knees are bad. His sense of humor is unparalleled, and he's one of about 3 people who can actually wear leather pants and get away with it. I figure if he auditioned for a role, and got it, then the people making the flick must have seen something they liked when they saw him. I doubt it'll be a big role, but I figured it's still worth mentioning.

Since Nash is God and all.

Which Conan? The Barbarian or O'Brien?

Well I don't know about that, he really isn't that famous.

To whom do you refer, Mathias?

um...the Barbarian.

:lol: Trips as Conan O'Brien would be kinda perversely amusing though....

Nash. God among ants? maybe among wrestling fans, but I would say is pretty much unknown to the rest of the world.

Oh, I guess that's alright....:(

No, he really IS rather godlike. Fame has nothing to do with it. In fact, it says more that only wrestling fans for the most part have been able to recognize Nash's godliness which the rest of the world has yet to realize.

If you ever have to spend a year of your life painting your hair silver and dressing up like a wizard named Oz in front of thousands of people every night, and can somehow evolve from that into a multi-millionaire with several movie roles under his belt and the adoration of millions, I'd say that takes a pretty darn high level of godliness.

And if that doesn't prove it, then Vinnie Vegas does. :P

Either he's godlike or he just walked over tons of people to get where he is today.

Doesn't one usually go hand-in-hand with the other? :lol:

Another reason to go see Punisher, cool.

While I don't know much about Nashes asting career, he could probly pull off what leos discribes, hell is Hogan and Ventura could do it, I don't see why Nash can't


ANd sunday, I saw the trailer for Rocks new movie, I swear Mr. Nanny 2 would be better than this pile of crap

:lol: Yeah I saw it today, I swear I saw the Rock doing wrestling moves on Christopher Walken in the preview.

The movie might be ok, but I fear it will fall into same cast as Daredevil... BTW it's the only movie that doesn't have a sequel in production.

joins in saying conan 0' brien is godlike.

I really dought the Punisher will share the fate of Dare Devil, Punisher has a better cast (and nash makes it better), the fights are suppose to be set in teh real world (little to no wire work), and the movie appeals to more people that most comic movies since hes a bit more well known than DD (at least I knew about punisher far before hearing DD or was into comics)

As long as it's 100% Affleck-Free, there ought not be a problem scraping together a sequel. The cast looks solid enough. It's got Jon Pinette (comedian) who never ceases to make me laugh.

But alas, only time will tell. I just hope it gets carried in the English-speaking theatres out here.
