HoonDing Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 Outlander. Mix of Thirteenth Warrior, Beowulf and Magnificent Seven. Main actor looked like a Christopher Lambert/Billy Zane hybrid.

Raithe Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 Outlander. Mix of Thirteenth Warrior, Beowulf and Magnificent Seven. Main actor looked like a Christopher Lambert/Billy Zane hybrid. Pretty weird movie. Jim Caviezel - You might remember him from the last remake of "The Count of Monte Cristo", as well as the currently running tv show "Person of Interest". I have to admit, I kind of enjoy Outlander it's an interesting use of a fairly typical fantasy/Viking story but wrapped up in limited sci-fi trappings. That and it has John Hurt and Ron Perlman to add a touch of gravitas, and Sophia Myles for some eye-candy that can act... "Cuius testiculos habeas, habeas cardia et cerebellum."

Nepenthe Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 Although you do expect some better choices from a man with an IQ of 160... I guess the needs of a paycheque must take precedence.. Or the nookie. He was dating Grace Jones before he started in movies, ffs. You're a cheery wee bugger, Nep. Have I ever said that?

Malcador Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 Saw Druids with Christopher Lambert as Vercengetorix. Yeah, I recommend everyone see this. Why has elegance found so little following?

Serrano Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 (edited) Highlander: Endgame was okay, I'd even argue it was a better film for the most part Edited May 23, 2012 by Serrano Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raithe Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 Endgame was okay. But then, I was a fan of the tv series, especially as it smoothed out over the first couple of years. "Cuius testiculos habeas, habeas cardia et cerebellum." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoonDing Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 Adrian Paul shouldn't have been in Endgame, considering how it was completely discrepant with the series, but I guess he was starving for a role back then (the movie came out a couple of years after the series ended).

Serrano Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 (edited) I'm glad that they wrapped up the "There can be only one" story arc with the last few movies rather than leaving it up in the air forever. It's just a shame that The Source wasn't a better send-off. Edited May 23, 2012 by Serrano Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Won't push them on other people, apart from vetoing Dagmara Dominczyk's nude scene in said Count of Monte Cristo. I bear him a lot of resentment over this fact. You're a cheery wee bugger, Nep.

Calax Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 do hope they don't push the comedy to much with Ryan as Conner. Maybe toy with a few funny things, but not a LOT of comedy.

LadyCrimson Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Said so long to the House series. The series in general may have become old and stale long ago, but the House/Wilson relationship was still worthwhile, so I liked the way it ended. That, to me, was always the best aspect to the series. Those two actors had a great working chemistry. “Things are as they are.

For a moment I read that as Ryan Gosling as was very excited .. then not so much.. I think Ryan Reynolds will fit the role of Deadpool a lot better, which he is also rumored to be doing.

Orogun01 Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 Ryan Reynolds is the current choice not the definite one, hopefully the director will be talked out of it or they will get a better choice or God Forbid Ryan Reynolds actually does a good job. After all he did the Amityville Horror remake without doing any jokes, so the man can actually do a film without kidding.

Calax Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 The thing for me is that you don't want it to be entirely serious (like ville horror). It's just that if you don't do it right, Ryan could end up accidentally turning it into a more of a farce than an action flick. I'm not saying that Ryan couldn't do it, but just from stuff like Blade 3 I think it'd take a director who could keep Ryan from being to comedic. Maybe Chris Evans or Chris Hemsworth? Both have shown themselves to be able to suit the role better than usual. Or Tom Hiddleston. Victor of the 5 year fan fic competition! Kevin Butler will awesome your face off.
