Legend of Zorro

Two new posters have been released for the upcoming sequel to the first Zorro film with Antonio Banderas and Catherine Zeta Jones.

Here's a brief overview:
"The year is 1850 and our swashbuckling crusader is challenged by the most dangerous mission of his life. After fighting to help California become the 31st state of the Union, Zorro (Banderas) must live up to the promise he made his wife Elena (Zeta-Jones) - to give up his secret identity and live a normal life as Alejandro de la Vega. When he hesitates, it threatens to tear them apart. Now, the same forces that conspired to keep California from becoming part of the United States are plotting to unleash a threat that has been 500 years in the making, a threat that could change the course of history forever. And only Zorro can stop it."

Personally this synopsis of the film doesn't interest me but the still pictures I have seen so far look very good and I enjoyed the first Zorro film so I will probably catch this when it comes out in the theater.

I still don't understand why, when casting Mexican born characters, the producers were so keen in the first film to choose Welsh people (Hopkins & Jones).

Aside from sleeping in the afternoon, I see no similarities between the people of these nations at all. If there is ever a lifestory made of Eddie Guerrero, I look forward to seeing Rhys Ifans in the lead role!!!

On a more "related" note, do they really have to make a sequel to this? The first one was okay, but I've not heard people clamouring for more. Banderas should get back to Spy Kids!!!

Hahahah, no shit. I agree with Bulldog. I saw this movie once and completely forgotten everything about it. I didn't even remember Zeta-Jones being in it and that should've been something to remember.

It's just a cheap Hollywood ploy to make some money off of an old series name and some actors who have some, kindof talent.

Sony has put up a site for the upcoming release of this film. I was looking at it today even though the film only mildly interests me.

The site includes a lot of features worth browsing through. You can collect weapons and enter the Shooting Gallery and/or collect all 9 icons for a special bonus in the game, which is coming soon. There are splash pages for each character with Media (trailer and a ton of new photos) and Downloads (wallpapers, IM icons, a screensaver and poster).

I think they did a great job with the site overall. I recommend it for a good break in the usual routine if you need one!

I am going to see Zorro with my fencing team. Perhaps I can trade in my white uniform for something more like that Catharine is wearing in the above poster. It is much hotter.
