Random movie bits

As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

Surfing a bit this afternoon while waiting for some vendors. Found the following items:

-Thomas Jane dropped out of Punisher 2. He hated the first film and sees the studio taking the Punisher in a more PG rated direction. The Punisher + PG = Another example of Hollywood not getting it. The people who want to see a Punisher film want to see an R rated Punisher film. The Punisher is about violence and isn't even popular enough to carry the PG audience.

-Someone is making Point Break 2.

-A Dr. Evil movie might be in the works.

-Kevin Smith has a new romantic comedy in the works and a horror called Red State about religious extremists. Rumored animated films from him include an new Clerks, Mallrats 2:Die Hard in a Mall, and something with Bluntman and Chronic.

-Bruce Willis claims new Die Hard is better than the first...

-War.

-Statham is also staring in Death Race 3000. Although, the director is Paul W.S. Anderson so it'll suck.

Damn. May as well break out Dolph for the sequel.

Bruce be hittin' the crackpipe.

I don't think there's a mainstream Hollywood director that could capture the spirit or mood of Death Race 2000. They need a fucker to come from out of nowhere & helm it.

I'd like to see as many characters as possible reprise their roles... Stallone and Carradine, especially.
