Lenticular Punisher Oct. 8, 2008

Today we have a new lenticular poster for PUNISHER: WAR ZONE. You can check it out BELOW. In the movie Frank Castle/The Punisher (Ray Stevenson) comes up against The Jigsaw, his greatest foe yet. Although after having seen the latest trailer I would probably postulate that his greatest foe was realism. Or possibly dialogue.

Of course, the film has been dogged by controversy as to whether director Lexi Alexander been fired or not, and what rating it's getting. As far as I know Alexander is still on board, and the movie was dealt an R rating for pervasive strong brutal violence, language and some drug use".

Extra Tidbit: Doug Hutchison originally turned down a role in this movie.

Whoa, gotta mention this, just 'cause I love this sorta thing. MrPink, you said you and your friends had a revenge night at the movies, seeing "The Punisher" followed by "Kill Bill, Vol. 2"; my bro and I did the same thing, watched both the same day (matinee) and in that same order. (personally, I like "Punisher", but love "K.B.") Only ever done two movies in a row at the theater about twice, and that was the most recent.

Had to mention that, 'cause as I said, I find that kinda thing interesting. I often wonder "who else in the world watched 'The Killing Fields' last night, like I did?" I'd love to be able to find out stuff like that.

Lexi Alexander can't compare to Jonathan Hensleigh. But I'm a huge fan of Sergio Leone which that was Hensleigh's template for his Punisher. This new one is being directed by a chick and it's not Penny Marshall. Has a female ever directed a movie geared towards males and been successful? (excluding Penny if you liked Big) Lexi wrote and directed Green Street Hooligans, whatever, so-so. I could live with out it. My prediction; two - three weeks in theaters, two months later, the DVD release.

I love the Punisher comic and at first i was hesitant with this movie. It didn't go with Welcome Back Frank for the title (its just so badass sounding) and a new face playing Frank. I really thought Tom Jane was great and hated how the first movie would change the back story of Castle's family. Like them leaving out his daughter and the central park slaying completely, but from the trailer this new movie is keeping with the true story and I'm 100% on board. Hope it doesn't let me down.

Like Punisher is supposed to look like. Jane is great but not for this. Plus the redband trailer looked just like the MAX series, the only way Punisher really works. And Jigsaw looked creepy.

I still have doubts about this movie. I liked the 2004 version with Thomas Jane (thought he did an excellent job with Frank Castle), though Ray Stevenson does look like the Garth Ennis Punisher MAX series covers. I know Lexi was very passionate about "giving the fans what they want" but I have to have some reservations when an actor like Thomas Jane walks away due to script issues. I wouldn't consider myself a "fan boy", but I would say I was a happy movie-goer/comic fan after seeing this movie. I also remember it was a REVENGE night at the movies when my friends and I all saw 'The Punisher' followed by 'Kill Bill: Vol. 2' back to back at the local cinema. We saw Punisher first (not expecting much) but were thoroughly entertained after it was over. MUCH BETTER than KB:V2... just because I felt it didn't live up to the awesomeness that was KB:V1. To each their own, I'll see this new Punisher movie anyway... because I am a SUCKA for comic movies!

The term "fan boy" is so overused it's ridiculous. I enjoyed Thomas Jane's performance and loved the 2004 version. They should have written a better script for Jane and continued working with him for the two sequels he was originallly signed for. That doesn't make me a fanboy. I think in this particular case it absolutely sucks that he isn't playing Frank Castle and this other guy (who I am incrediby unimpressed by) is. It's an opinion. Does it change the fact that this new guy is playing him? Does it change the fact that the movie is coming out? I doubt it. I have just as much right to say I don't like it as you do to say you do like it.

Balboa6, it's not like they replaced Al Pacino with David Spade in Godfather. I love Thomas Jane, but the first Punisher was a very mediocre film that didn't feel like The Punisher at all. This film has the look and feel of how a Punisher film should be. Over the top and bloody violent.

i like the gun boarders but everything below his neck looks completely photoshopped on. i think the movie looks good but the red band footage they showed at comic con looked extremely corny, some of it looked like a bad low budget horror flick, i think what made me upset was when he punches through some guys face, not because it was violent (because i love violence) but because it looked incredibly fake. i've got high hopes for this though, i really want to like it.

Without Thomas Jane, it'll be pure shit. The trailer certainly didn't even begin to change my mind.

My only concern about the movie is that Ray Stevenson... and the movie... looks somehow... European. And, I mean, he is from the UK, which is fine; but The Punisher is an American character. (The whole world knows, of course, that we love our guns, right? Don't ya, world? Yeah, we're all a bunch of gun crazy loons, right, world? Yeah.)

Anyway, I think the movie looks pretty decent, but somehow it just doesn't look like it takes place in New York, or even in the US, which I think could be off-putting.
