Punisher Sequel? (War Zone)
Now, I remeber the first one, and I like Thomas Jane, but by the time the credits rolled, "sequel" was not the first thing that sprung to mind.
Did the original make a load of cash while I wasn't looking, or is this just because Marvel is on a serious roll right now?
I'm not sure...this was announced a while ago and initially I was a bit excited. I really thought that The first Thoman Jane Punisher was actually pretty good...just John Travolta was awful. But since Jane isn't going to be a part of this film I stopped caring a long time ago. 3 punisher movies with 3 different punishers...at some point they either need to make up their mind or just quit with this franchise.

A very strange, very masochistic part of me was disappointed when Dolph Lundgren was not the lead actor for Punisher: War Zone.

FUCK YES!
I just saw this flick and it was a glorious cavalcade of violence which has only been topped by Rambo IV in recent years.
No romantic subplot, no stupid exposition. Just Frank killing scum. I still have a boner.
They need to make a truly epic Punisher game. Let Starbreeze do it, they showed us they had the skills in gritty environments in The Darkness.
Or maybe Monolith with the more grounded levels of the Condemned games and it's graphic ultraviolence.
I'm totally getting this when it's released on Blu-Ray
Seriously, how can you not be pumped just by the trailer?
Frank doesn't even talk the first 20-25 minutes of the flick, he just kills people.
I laughed my ass off when he shot that free running idiot with a rocket launcher.
I haven't laughed that much at someone getting killed in a flick since the pit trap scene of that awful Pathfinder flick.
Oh man, Roger Ebert's review of this is epic
Roger Ebert said:
There's a big audience for disgusting, and I confidently predict the movie will "win the weekend," if not very many hearts and minds. Here you will see a man's kidney ripped out and eaten, a chair leg pushed through a head via the eyeball, a roomful of men wiped out by the Punisher revolving upside-down from a chandelier and firing machine-guns with both hands, a widow and her wee girl threatened with mayhem, heads sliced off, victims impaled and skewered, and the villain thrown into a machine that crushes glass bottles in much the same way concrete is mixed.
"I laughed my ass off when he shot that free running idiot with a rocket launcher.WHOA WHOA WHOA!!! Pathfinder is the shit!!! I love that fucking movie...and pretty much anything Marcus Nispel directs!!!

"WHOA WHOA WHOA!!! Pathfinder is the shit!!! I love that fucking movie...and pretty much anything Marcus Nispel directs!!!Dude, I give Pathfinder an automatic five stars for that trap scene. But I can't say I enjoyed the rest of the flick.Also, yes...the free runner had it coming with his stupid dreads and retarded flips.Me and my cousin actually did a review of War Zone on Episode 3 of our podcast (which we still haven't gotten going again yet). We both fucking loved it."
