Punisher Ruined?

Quote:
The Punisher should be able one of the easiest comic book characters to adapt. He doesn't dress up like a bat, spider or grow into a giant green monster yet Batman, Spider-Man and The Hulk all have had considerable more success than Frank Castle. It's sad when a Dolph Lundgren led movie is the best of your franchise. Director Lexi Alexander wanted to change all that with PUNISHER: WAR ZONE and it looked as if she were on the right track until Lionsgate reportedly fired her from her duties as director. Now Latino Review is reporting that Lionsgate is working to trim down Alexander's footage to a PG-13 rating.
After seeing the second trailer it looked they were back on track with making a decent Frank Castle film.

Now...well it's gonna suck ass if this is true.

Re: Punisher Ruined?

Personally, and I might be alone in saying this, I didn't care for the trailer. To me, if the "Marvel" logo wouldn't have come up at the beginning of it, I would have confused it with any other shoot-em-up type of movie.

I hope they stay true to the comics a bit, although it looks like his battle van is in it, so that makes me happy. Will Microchip be in it?

I think you're referring to the first trailer.

They aired a second one at comic con that was extremely violent.

It had castle pulling eyeballs out and squashing heads with his bare hands....

Punisher was always a violent, take no prisoners type of character and that looked like what they were going for this time around.

and yes Microchip is in this....Newman fronm Seinfeld is playing him.

It looks like they wanted a repeat of the Tom Jane movie in terms of tone.

I have no idea.

Re: Punisher Ruined?

I may be in the minority, but I actually liked the first one. I was looking forward to this, but if this was true then yeah, it'll blow. The Punisher is meant violent, so why tone it down?

Re: Punisher Ruined?

The Tom Jane Punisher was excellent, Dolph was pretty good. A PG Punisher though?
