Ryan Reynolds To Be BURIED!!
Merrick here...
Still struggling to live down his appearance as Deadpool in WOLVERINE, Ryan Reynolds is now headed towards a decidedly claustrophobic, independently produced thriller called BURIED.
Reynolds will star in "Buried," playing a civilian contractor who's kidnapped in Iraq and awakens buried in a coffin in the desert, armed only with a cell phone, a candle and a knife.
Rodrigo Cortes will direct a script by Chris Sparling; production will begin this month in Barcelona.
...says THIS piece in Variety.
Anyone remembering a fantastic TV show called G VS E from a while back may recall an episode...called "Buried" (ahem)...which employed an extremely similar concept. I'm pretty sure this conceit's been rolled out elsewhere as well.
Which is not to imply this BURIED will blow... but...I'm just sayin'...
Rodrigo Cortes will direct a script by Chris Sparling; production will begin this month in Barcelona.

That Ryan Reynolds. Boy, does he have a great set of abs.
-
Uma Thurman is hotter than Ryan Reynolds. Sorry, she just is.
-
By Wolverine. Hah! I kid, I kid. He's very talented. He'll wash the stink of Wolverine off him in no time.

let's not exhume this corpse...

two part season 5 ep, directed by quentin tarantino
-
My amigo El Santo did this in one of his movies decades before Beatrice did! Bah!
-
I loved that movie.. they had a sequel that was almost as good too
-
I agree 100%. :o)
-
"Anyone remembering a fantastic TV show called G VS E..."
Fantastic? -
By QT none the less.

Please, No NeilF Whining Incessantly About Scriptgirl
by kevinwillis.net
Ever. Thanks!

I thought it said Burt Reynolds, and it went through my head, did he die? Then after reading that article I wished it was Burt in this movie. Sounds like Phone Booth.
-
Spike in the Cowboy Bebop movie.
I get how Keanu really respects the source material, and is going to put everything into the adaptation but he's too old and thick for the part.
Reynoldsis young and lean and has the moves for Spike.
He's also the better actor. -
trying to live down the role? he's doing a spinoff, he's obviously very much into it. when the movie geeks hate a movie, they truly hate it with all their soul it seems. anyway, to add to the list, Alias is another show that did the buried alive concept for an episode.
-
...that is debatable. And I'm straight! Btw, Mythbusters showed that the Bride would have suffocated/crushed before she dug herself out.
-
If someone offered you the obviously insane amount of money they offered him, you would do it too.
Look at it like this, Ryan is a fast food server.. he's giving us exactly what we expect, because we REFUSE to demand better by not giving their money every time they release something 'bad' for us.
I don't blame anybody for hoe bad Wolverine was any more then I do Van Helsing. That shit got made and released because it was a rock solid fact that people will line up to pay for it, either at the theater or at the video counter. -
Lucky devil.
-
But Amityville didn't convince me that he can handle serious drama. And no, I don't count rom-coms. Hopefully, I'm wrong.
-
... written by Drew Goddard.
-
how the fuck is this dude not a star? his agent needs to be skewered up the ass by a rhino horn
-
Just kidding I'm sure he's a nice guy but he is not, in my opinion, a good actor. At all. I've seen him "do" comedy, horror and action, and I've seen him fail at all three. And he certainly isn't good with one liners! I wish him no harm, but I do hope he sticks to stuff I'd never be interested in anyway like "The Proposition", and not stuff I might have liked like "Blade: Trinity" (though he wasn't the only thing wrong with that film).
-
I blame Blade 3 for Ryan not being a huge star, yet. Jessica Biel is box office poison.
-
What fucking coverage program is he supposed to be on?
-
...but no matches? Does the phone have a light because this might be
the darkest movie ever.
-
Ryan's delivery of that line is why he will get into heaven.
Also I want him to play Deadpool again. -

Whatever
-
Unfortunately, I cant remember crap from it.
-
Didn't Micheal Douglas have this happen to him in a scene in "The Game"?
-
slowly suffocating to death, right? Because I'd pay to see that. Pretty sure Alanis Morisette will too.
-
After much careful consideration and research, I have found the solution to your problem re: Scriptgirl. WHEN YOU SEE THE LINK TO SCRIPTGIRL'S REPORT, DON'T MOTHERFUCKING CLICK IT!!! You must be a right-wingnut - anything you don't like must cease to exist, rather than you just ignoring it. Fucking douchebag.
-
...he will be convienently buried without a shirt on.
-
Damn, will this ever be released on DVD?
-
Being buried alive is one of my single biggest phobias ever. This would just freak my shit out too much. I had a hard time with the burial scene in Kill Bill too.
Anyone remember the Alfred Hitchcock episode where the prison inmate attempted to escape by being buried in a coffin in the prison graveyard only to find that the guy who was supposed to dig him up later was dead in the coffin with him? YIKES!! -
was one of the most stupid shows evar
Richard Brooks endlessly talking about the size of his dick and white pussy -
You're an idiot if you think complaining and asking to have an article removed just because YOU don't like it. Nobody is forcing you to watch it. Other people do. Other people have their rights too. If other people WANT to click on that article, then you have no rights or business telling this site to stop airing it. Now shut the fuck up, get over yourself and this stupid fucking notion that your opinion is more important than anyone else's. It's not.
-
I actually liked Ryan as Deadpool. One of the better parts of the Wolverine movie, but that's just my opinion. As for Script Girl, what's wrong with you people that don't like her? Gay? I just turn the sound off and watch her for the 5 minutes or so, happily.
-
That prison ep was a woman. I can still remember it to this day! That ep made me lose sleep!
-
So it's the Pai Mei chapter, extended for 2 hours?
-
"You must be a right-wingnut - anything you don't like must cease to exist, rather than you just ignoring it. Fucking douchebag."Heh.No, you can't smoke that here.No, you can't smoke that at all.No, you can't eat any of that.No, you can't eat too much of the good stuff either.No, your kids have to attend school HERE.Nope, can't drill there.No, you can't say that.No, you can't even THINK that.Yeah, Neil surely is a "right-wingnut."
-
So I saw this new movie, BURIED. Well, let me tell ya, I'd rather spend 90 minutes in Scarlet Johansen's box. (Rimshot)
-
Hopefully it's better than the queefer version.
-
What is he supposed to do with the candle? Cut it into a new shape with the knife, so that it fits into the cellphone?
-
Non? Meh.

And as the modern hetero man that I am, I can say that...
by derlanghaarige
...Ryan Reynolds is more attractive than Uma. I don't use thsi word often, but Uma is fugly.
-
Whats he going to do with a cell phone in the middle of no where. Wait this is a Verizon ad is'nt it.
-
There was a brief scene in "The Game" where Douglas is buried alive in a coffin and wakes up in Mexico and he has to take a bus back to U.S. all dirty and poor and whatever else. But even that is probably not the first time its been done. But this sounds like a concept movie, and one I'm not fully against. It's kind of like Oldboy in a way. What does a man do when put into an extreme situation? How does he survive? How does he get revenge? Could be interesting, but I think they should change the title.
-
Sorry, hogan, didn't see your post about the Game. But I can vouch for you. They did do that.
-
I worked on GvsE and was there when they (Josh and Joans Pate) concieved the Buried episode - also copied by Tarantino for CSI - but both (I believe) are Homage to "Spoorlos" or "The Vanishing" a really cool Finnish film...
-
I thought the same thing. Does he escape and immediately eat a live squid afterwards?Re: the Uma debate...she is one of those actresses that under the right lighting can look stunning, but most of the time..."talk to Mister Ed"...
-
Guy must obviously love the film since he's structured his films in a similar way (showing an action, going back to the same scene later from a different character's perspective).
-
Great idea: http://www.shigabooks.com/shigabooks/fleep/start.html
-
The end.
-
Geez, lay off the guy. Wasn't he the one thing everybody agreed was good in Wolverine? Just because he turned into some stupid guy at the end who isn't the same as the stupid guy in your comics isn't his fault. Plus that wasn't even him, that was Scott Adkins, and you're not gonna say Scott Adkins has to live it down because he'll run up the wall do a flip and kick you three times in the face before he hits the ground.
I would watch the spinoff movie, but I'm skeptical because they claimed he was gonna do a spinoff of Blade 3 also and that never happened. Burying alive is good though. -
to have to carry a movie like that. Sam Rockwell proved it can be done with his superb performance in Moon. Be interesting to see if Reynolds can do it here.
-
He's fun to watch.....
He's sarcastic as hell in just about everything I saw him in. When he was in both Wolverine and Blade 3 he had a look on his face as if he was saying " Okay...I'm in this piece of shit movie, what can I do to entertain myself?" I know--I'll talk about these motherfuckers.
Someone mentioned he should play Green Lantern......
I think he would be bad ass -
Boosh.
-
Ryan could of played a lot of Superhero's. I would of liked him as the Flash personally. I agree, he does need better agents because this guy should be able to land bigger parts. Wolverine sucked super hyper donky balls and thats a no brainer and Im sure the Deadpool movie will too seeing how its made by the same people. Get this guy some better parts already. And I guess Im the only non-female that liked Reynolds in Amityville. I thought he did a good job. I think he should of been Peter Parker really. Tobey is too small. Even James Franco would of been a better Parker.
-
Of movies I won't be seeing.
-
Ryan Reynolds should be Fletch, the
A-Team's "Faceman", Magnum P.I.,
The Saint, The Accident Man, Namor the Sub-Mariner,etc. -
I can't believe that with all of these replies there has not been a single Van Wilder comment until now...
-
From the show that put Nathan Fillion on my radar.
-
The spinoff will follow the comics. They may even have to retool the whole thing but we're getting a scarred up Deadpool that never shuts up. He WILL have a mouth. I dont even care if he loses the armblades and other powers without explanation, as long as he kills people with a wisecrack, looks like hamburger puked on pizza, and breaks the 4th wall.
-
...being scarred-up & masked for
most of the film are 1 out of infinity. -
Oh wait.

Remember Uma Thurman as Boticelli's Venus in Baron Von Munchause
by kevinwillis.net
She was definitely hotter then than Ryan Reynolds has ever been. Sorry. It's true.
-
I ran afoul of that title truncation thing. Oops.
-
It's a joke, Vern. Know what I mean, Vern? Just joshin' ya. Ha-ha. Ha. Heh. Meh.
-
...twice. And on Crossing Jordan.
-
Tune in Monday. This script will be reviewed. http://scriptshadow.blogspot.com/
-
This movie sounds lame. He's no Russell Crowe. He'll get two failed movies based on his success with Sandra Bullock and then make his way back to a sit-com for a high payday.
I still remember Fifteen! Beyond a sha-doooow of a doubt! -
Fletch!
I didn't like Reynolds at first, but I like that he has chosen diverse parts. As a cocky wiseguy, he reminds me a bit of a young Chevy Chase. -
Funky as hell, and fun.
-
1) Ryan Reynolds is a great smarmy guy 2) G vs. E is a great show 3) Buried Alive was a great tv-flick 4) Reynolds will be great in BURIED, I put my hard earned money on it...
-
Was fucking awful. The second worst movie I've ever paid to see, Blade 2 being the worst. I really want to like Ryan Reynolds, but I can't think of any movies of his that I like.
G vs. E was pretty good, at least enough for me to watch every episdoe. I think it ran on the Chill network for a little while last year, twas nice to revisit it.
-
in Scarlet's cooze.
-
Its true. He's number 3.
-
I watched very episode of that show!
-
What did he do in Wolverine that he has to live down? The Proposal maybe.....
-
And Reynolds was a smug cunt in it. He's usually a likable actor, but I can't think of one flick he's been in that I've really liked.
-
That actually sounds like it could be interesting. Probably won't but who knows?
-
You're only half right. Blade 2 is fucking awesome, even if Donnie Yen was painfully underused.
-
It's just Ryan Reynolds' career! Phew! They supposedy come in 3's!
-
Reynolds was good in that.
-
...whilst still inside his truck in Lone Wolf McQuade. He wakes up and just drives back out of the ground, so he can hunt down and kill David Carradine.
-
...in a coffin, whilst searching for the drug that causes zombies in Haiti. I think there's a tarantula in the coffin with him. Can't remember how he frees himself, though (Pullman, not the spider).
-
...in Diamonds Are Forever, in a pipeline under the desert. He just hitches a ride on some pipe-welding gizmo and glides through the pipes to freedom (why didn't the gay henchmen SHOOT Bond before they left him in the pipe?)
-
...in the shite remake of The Vanishing... and he lives! However, in the original Dutch version...
-
...whilst still in her car in Superman. Unlike Chuck Norris in Lone Wolf McQuade, she was unable to drive back out the ground and dies. Fortunately for her, the Man of Steel flies very fast around the world in different directions and somehow turns back time to save her...
-
He's a fine wade wilson. He'd be awesome in Speed 3
-
...without his beard?
It's an important question because: Ryan with a beard looks adult and tough. Ryan without a beard can sometimes look about 14 years old. -
