Punisher: War Zone was my favorite Punisher flick.

The 10 minute short film is better than either of them.

Thomas Jane should do everything Punisher for now on.  I like the guy from Warzone, but he's no Thomas Jane.  I would like to see HBO do Punisher as a series, actually.

Who is publishing it now, 2000AD or IDW? I can't seem to find any trades of it here in Houston.

Rebellion Developments are the publishers of Judge Dredd (having bought the rights from IPC/Fleetway).

 

2000 AD is the flagship comic/magazine, with the Judge Dredd Megazine also still being published in the UK.

 

IDW has the rights to do a US published Dredd book and to publish reprints (just like DC did for a few years).  Their color reprint of the 2000 AD series "Judge Dredd Classics" in single issues is supposed to have begun in May.  In September we get MARS ATTACKS JUDGE DREDD which should be worth a look, IMO.

 

Rebellion have published trades (the Judge Anderson Omnibus is sitting in my "to read" pile at home) but your comic shop has to import them (sadly I've only been able to find a handful of them).  I don't know when IDW plans to have the first trade of the Judge Dredd Classics Line out.

 

 

so, this Great Gatsby thing. never read the book, of course, but heard good things about the movie. then read a review, and the reviewer states that in the book it's implied that the main character is black, so knowing this gives a new dimension to a lot of scenes (the racist remarks made by other characters for example). and he says that if you're going to watch the movie just imagine that there's an african-american actor in DiCaprio's place, and the movie will make a lot more sense that way

 

how much truth is there to this?

 

I think the reviewer is reading something into the novel that isn't there.  Jay Gatsby definitely has changed his name and identity, but he was formally James Gatz, a 1st (or at least early) generation German-American as I recall.

I've been trying to remember the name, but I can't. There's a shop online which sells Dredd and other 2000AD graphic novels. In electronic format. Which I know will excite you fondleslabbers.

2000ADonline.com sells them some of them in digital format on their website.

 

Comixology has the IDW series on its site.

Damn, the finale of season 3 for Boardwalk Empire was freaking great. That's what I want to see. Less Margaret and more action.

 

Watched Lawless. I can't say I really enjoyed it. Overhyped by my friends and I should have known better.

I watched a movie called "George and the Dragon" which is a bit of a revisionist take on the legend from a decade or so ago. Amusing bit of fantasy fluff.

If Thomas Jane had done War Zone it would have been even better. I just liked War Zone because it did Punisher right. Punisher isn't about long drawn out revenge schemes, he's about a bullet between the eyes.

The area between the balls and the butt is a hotbed of terrorist activity.

Really? I feel like the Punisher (under Ellis at least) Had a lot of the more drawn out ridiculousness that populated the Jane movie. Seriously, the guy went all out in wiping out an entire crime family with as much planning as Jane.

Really?  I find Daredevil and that one with his wife unwatchable.  I generally enjoy even the bad comic book movies too, like every Punisher.

When you factor in the properties of Volourn, up is down, black is white, he is usually extremely accurate.

Movie 43.

 

 

Stay away from this. It is terrifyingly bad.

I remember going to see that when it came out in theaters. I felt like I had just watched a feature length Family Guy with some A-list actors.

True, the Punisher is fond of complicated plans when the target is big enough. I liked that the Thomas Jane Punisher focused on that aspect rather than turning him into a generic action-film vigilante.

I wasn't a fan of his family being killed in a targetted hit either. The whole point of his origin was that it could have happened to anyone.

I also didn't like how they changed the origin from veteran to cop.

 

Does anyone here know where to find the Alan Moore Marvelman?

Travolta was even more terrible as the villain in Jane's Punisher than he was in Battlefield Earth.

watched 'A Place Beyond The Pines'. Not what I expected, but a good movie still, good fathers-and-sons drama. though you can see all the plot twists coming a mile away.

Yeah it bothered me that the cool guy with the guitar died so quickly, he would have been a better villain than Travolta.

I did enjoy the fight scene with Russian Waldo a lot.

I'd say the answer to that question is kind of like the answer to "who's the sucker in this poker game?"*

It's a dilemma. I like the Obsidian boards. I hate the Obsidian boards. Too much trolling going on.

 

I found John Travolta awesome in Punisher. To compare that performance to the **** known as Battlefield Earth is an embarassment to YOU not to Travolta.

The Incredible Burt Wonderstone.

Light entertainment, a few smiles, a bit of magic,with  Steve Carrol, Steve Buscemi, and Jim Carey doing fairly solid performances with what they've got and Olivia Wilde adding a touch of sex appeal, whilst Alan Arkin, James Gandolfini and a bunch of others flesh out the support.

 

Unfortunately the main character isn't that likeable for most of the film, so that loses out some of the appeal, and the script seems a little choppy. 

With the talent they had, they really should have been able to get something a lot better.
