George W. Posted August 16, 2008 Report Share Posted August 16, 2008 Yeah... the fact that this film is still being released is still cause for the face palm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackFetch Posted August 19, 2008 Report Share Posted August 19, 2008 Steve Gainer is the cinematographer for the movie, and had this to say about the controversy: Holy smokes, I go away and shoot some kids stuff for Disney, and the whole world is a different color when I return. Again I appear here to dispel rumors. Please believe: 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 Lexi is an incredibly talented director, and this film kicks major ass, as will be proven when it is released IN THEATRES DECEMBER 5th The film is most certainly not all exploding heads, but will reveal a great deal of Franks personna and pain This film has been difficult from the begining, from a bitter Canadian winter, to endless nights, to rampant sickness, Lexi has fought to make a killer Punisher film for fans and non fans alike. Initially we were to release in September, but for whatever reason (not the quality of the film or edit IMHO) it was decided to release in December. That extra time has given everyone a chance to put their two cents worth in, but rest assured, Lexi is still stearing the boat, and she is a great captain. When I hear vicious unfounded troll rumors like the "film was unwatchable" or "a total mess" it makes my blood boil. I want to punish the corrupt. People sit on their fat asses trolling the internet, people that have never even looked through a motion picture camera, and make judgements on a work of art that they've never seen, 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. Sorry for the rant, I just love something wonderful you have yet to see- sg,asc http://www.comics2film.com/index.php?a=story&b=35173 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JackFetch Posted October 7, 2008 Report Share Posted October 7, 2008 That is one ugly poster. There is way too much stuff in it, and he's holding the guns like he's in a John Woo movie. I think he should be holding one gun pointed at the camera, and what's with all the guns around it? This movie is going to suck so bad I'm afraid.

I REFUSE TO WATCH this movie either at the theaters or buy the DVD the 2004 movie is the only Punisher that I recognize. Apparently this NEW movie is a Marvel "reboot" like the Hulk movie was. While I haven't seen the new Hulk I'm not reserving judgement just yet. But this new Punisher just pisses me off. LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL You do know they're rebooting The Punisher partly because the 2004 film was shitty, don't you? I'll be interested to see this film, if only because it sounds like the right kind of tone, although the film appears to be straying into "Generic action film" territory from the trailer/info available. If this film bombs, it has to make Marvel think twice about re-committing the character to celluloid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest DCAUFan1051 Posted November 17, 2008 Report Share Posted November 17, 2008 after seeing the trailer a number of times on the internet and TV I'm definitely not wasting my money on this film. I'd much rather watch the 2004 extended cut version then this flaming pile of dog shit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuaveStar Posted November 17, 2008 Report Share Posted November 17, 2008 Well, I expect this to be a movie that I walked out of room from, as I streamed it online as I didn't want to pay to see it and say "What the hell was that?" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Missy Posted November 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2008 When Jen and I saw the trailer this weekend, we looked at each other and simply shook our heads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stavros Posted November 17, 2008 Report Share Posted November 17, 2008 The only thing about ths I'd remotely care about is Dominic West (Jigsaw), and thats just because he's f'n awesome in The Wire. That makeup though... I can only quote Entourage- "They told me it would look good on film." "It didn't." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
