More Punisher drama
Aug. 18, 2008
The whole PUNISHER: WAR ZONE kafuffle has taken another twist, as now everything is great! According to the film's cinematographer, Steve Gainer, all of that shit that we heard about this movie before was completely fallacious.
Lexi is not off the film... Lexi is still involved in the edit process... The film is not (nor could it ever be) PG-13... Today I saw a cut that ran 91 minutes... Lexi did in fact get married... When I hear vicious unfounded troll rumors like the "film was unwatchable" or "a total mess" it makes my blood boil... it's like saying a baby will be ugly before it is born, I can't freaking wait for this film to come out and prove the nay-sayers wrong.
Whatever. I'm not buying it. Lexi Alexander is like Anne freaking Heche. Is she in or out? This whole thing is a fiasco. They should have cast Thomas Jane as the lead from the get-go. After that they could have gotten Gob from Arrested Development to direct it, and a wild bear that Lionsgate found loose on their lot to do the promotion -- I'm pretty sure it would have ended up less of a farce than this.

Extra Tidbit: The Punisher is pretty bad ass for a couple of pages in Marvel's Civil War story.

Ray Stevenson looks like Tim Bradstreet's version of The Punisher on every cover for the last 8 years.
Thomas Jane didn't like the script! He'd rather do The Mutant Chronicles. Which was great.....Not! So F him.
Lexi Alexander's Green Street Hooligans was great. I watched the first 5 mins and knew she would give me (a true) fan a good Punisher movie. Time will ...

Stevenson at least looks more like Castle. I'm willing to give this reboot a shot. Just really want to see a proper Punisher adaptation for once.
EDIT: I went and watched the 2nd trailer which I somehow missed. At least they got the setting right this time. And it has a nice mix of moody and dark coloring. Jigsaw--he does look pretty fuckin gnarly, if a bit Dick Tracy-villain esque. Stevenson looks badass and has the voice (I would personally love it if there was a bit of hard-boiled narration over some of the film a'la the comics by Castle). The hanging off the chandelier firing guns shit is lame--let's hope that's not the movie's best set piece.
So I am still hopeful for this.

If he sucks, which I have a gut feeling he won't then we'll see if we get Tom Jane back.

I could give a shit if Jane were Punisher again. What is with the praise for Jane as Punisher? He sucked as Castle and that entire movie was shit. this one looks way better already.

Yes, number five. I agree. This will be a great B movie classic, just like the old days. I cannot wait.

I am all for Tom Jane, even though that's not happening.
Oh, and Civil War Punisher is really bad ass.

You're grasping at straws.
In related news, I think this film is going to be a glorious B epic.
