Paul W.S. Anderson Developing A DEATH RACE Prequel?? Seems So...
Merrick here...
Seems Paul W.S. Anderson has worked up a prequel to his recent DEATH RACE remake; Tony Giglio (a Second Unit director on the upcoming RESIDENT EVIL: AFTERLIFE) will script and possibly direct.
The script is said to delve into the past of the driver known as Frankenstein.
...says ShockTillYouDrop HERE.
The project's prequel setting might conveniently sidestep any need for Jason Statham.
Kinda really sorta didn't like Anderson's remake of a far more interesting progenitor film; can't say I'm eager for a prequel to his interpretation of the concept. But, whatever...

-
Why?
-
Didn't this bomb hard? I saw it and the previews looked so-so, but the film was VERY gerneric and pretty shit.I WANTED to like it, but it just was a tame pussycat
-
If it even gets made
-
Even watch the first one? Been avoiding it thusfar.
-
off in the beginning of the movie? What a wasted opportunity for an awesome cameo. Anderson, you suck. I actually didn't mind Deathrace, but a David Carradine cameo would have made it awesome and immortalized the movie. You idiot!
-
There are prople starving in Africa. What a waste of FUCKING MONEY.
-
I really enjoyed it. It reminded me of those heady days in the 80's when I spent half my time in the video store looking for the next cheap action flick.
-
Because enough morons coughed up money to watch Andersons shit in the cinema. You reap what you sow.
-
TEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEN
-
i loved the remake/sequel.unfortunately it didnt have the social commentaries of the first cult movie,but blame blame the PC Hollywood for that and not Anderson.
-
...just so you know. You didn't recognize his voice?
-
Huge himself from his penis.

Let's just be glad he's working on something no one cares about.
by ironhelix
...instead of fucking up something we actually like.
-
Seriously. This guy blows.
-
Never understood why people hate Anderson. I'm pretty sure it's just a huge bandwagon-jumping thing, because it's not like he's made anything offensively bad. This guy isn't Uwe Boll. He's not even as bad as Michael Bay just yet. And he clearly loves what he does.
-
I actually liked Death Race. It was a lot of fun. Is he still doing Castlevania?
-
I do love me some zombie movies. Guilty pleasures. The Resident Evil games rule. I like the old kind of zombies tho, the pre 28 Days Later haulin' ass variety.
-
one more thing to clarify something concerning the Frankenstein character.
In the original movie,Frankestein tell to his companion,that he is one of a line of Frankesteins.He just follows this legacy.
that allows for the creation of many movie stories for these various Frankenstein incarnations,without the risk of plot/story holes.
personally i would love a new death race movie made in the furute.with cars having their own super cool futuristic weapons etc.Anderson mentioned in the dvd commentaries that this was their original intention,but because of budget restriction,they had to abandon this idea.
just imagine wipeout/carmageddon/twisted metal into a movie. -
I guess he didn't go through with it with Milla Jovovich, seeing that she is working with David Towey now. Bitch leeches off men to make movies for her.
-
get rebooted.no suprises here,since the RE vgs have gone from bad to worse,both in gameplay and storyline.RE4 proves that easily.
-
Fucking HACK ruined Resident Evil.
-
Must be the Kurt Russell factor, but I still quite enjoy it. Only found out years later that it could have been so much more. A remake with the original script and a good director could be something special.
-
I kind of liked DEATH RACE. Not nearly as good as the original but one of the better Jason Statham vehicles and the rare modern action movie where I could mostly tell what was going on. It also probaly had the most real car stunts of recent movies other than DEATH PROOF.
But who wants to see a prequel about NASCAR? They should make the sequel with Frankenstein and Machine Gun Joe on the run. But I guess this is probaly DTV. -
… was when my roommate commented on Jason Statham’s navigator, Natalie Martinez stating that he wanted to see “less teeth and more tits” because she was talking to much. Other than that, pretty much no redeeming qualities in the flick.
Hell, even Ian McShane (who should be drunk on his own acting awesomeness, seriously, have you seen Deadwood?!) couldn't save the flick!
-
and he is an idiot who didnt accept to play in Slys expendables.damn him.
-
JCVD also didn't want to be in The Expendables because Sly couldn't explain to him his character good enough????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
-
Anderson would have more chance getting a wet wildcat into a tobacco sack than making an entertaining movie, the cocksucking hack that he is.
-
When Anderson is busy on projects like these, he'll stay away from franchises we care about. I hope he makes 5 more Death Race movies.
-
because the remake was just a big pile of shit.
-
To say "SIKE"...... This can't possibly be true.. In the week we get the wonderfully original District 9, we get this and LEGO news.... All still sucks with hollywood.
-
because he didnt think that his character had nothing to offer in the movie.The same reason for example,that Nimoy refused to play in the Generations movie.
-
I enjoyed the first one, but this is unnecessary. If anything, do a sequel because everyone gives less than a shit about a prequel.
-
In the new movie. The Franky that dies was voiced by David Carradine.
-
Yeah but Sly told him that he would make a lot of money. You think he would take it. I hope his lawyers don't hear about it.
-
Was in Crank 2 as well. You think he was mentoring Statham at all?
-
Hollywood is now connecting a feeder tube from it's ass to it's mouth.
-
Get the continued funds for these projects?! But in a world where there will be a Legos movie... *sigh*
-
I'm sick to death of pointless fucking no-brainer movies being made. People often accuse the Hollywood of producing shit. They have no right to defend themselves against this accusation when it's fucking obvious they're just trying to earn a fast buck. These films are like cheeseburgers: instantly gratifying to those who don't know better or who are just too lazy to care. Remakes, reimaginings, prequels, sequels, reboots and comic book adaptations. How depressing. It's made me really appreciate visionary, original cinema (e.g. 'let the right one in', 'the hurt locker', 'pan's labyrinth', etc). Sorry, I'm just so sick of it!!!
-
It's not like he's some expensive snob who gets all fussy and turns down most projects. I guess this is DTV material, but why not set the sights a bit higher and go for a straight sequel? Statham will do it. He'll do anything. He loves sequels.
-
But I've come to appreciate him for what he is. He makes fun movies for people who want to be entertained. Nothing he's made is great (No, not even Event Horizon!), but his films are generally fun and watchable, demanding very little from the viewer other than you accept the product for what it is. There are a thousand shit films from the 70's and 80's that are now regarded as genre classics by us bleary-eyed nostalgia-monkeys and the same will be said of PWA in years to come. Lay off the hating and go watch Mortal Kombat again with a few Beers and a Pizza.
-
scifi horror movies ever.perido.a very underrated mastepiece.
i am still waiting for the DC version,which anderson had promised some time ago,but until then:
Liberate tuta me ex inferiis
LIBERATE TUTA ME -
No it's not high art but it was definitely a kick ass action movie. Anyone who hasn't seen it it's definitely worth $1 redbox rental.
-
develop his ass out of the movie business.
-
I don't like everything PWSA has done, but he has done some entertaining movies. Mortal Kombat, Event Horizon, and Death Race I enjoyed a lot. Resident Evil was fairly enjoyable as well, though 2 & 3 were shit. I won't call any of those "great" movies, but they are all entertaining. Ok, I actually would call Event a great flick.
-
"Paul Water Shit Anderson"? That's what you came up with for W.S. to stand for, water shit? And then you typed it? And then you felt it was worth posting?
Water Shit. Paul Water Shit Anderson.
I don't want to be controversial but in my opinion it is possible that we as talkbackers could up our game a little bit. Even if you don't want to type something insightful or worthwhile AT LEAST there's gotta be something better than what has sometimes been passing for talkbacks lately. What is this, the IMDb message boards?
I believe you can do better, mitortilla. I KNOW you can do better. Don't give me no "but it's too hard" bullshit, I'll make you run laps. -
Resident Evil 1 is solid, Event Horizon was crazy at the time, Death Race was an entertaining B-movie based on an entertaining B-movie. I like his stuff. But I'm less interested in the Deathrace sequel than I am The Warded Man, a book he optioned that is about fighting demons with spears and karate: http://tinyurl.com/ktrbm8

That would be all. Thank you, Ladies and Gentlemen.

reality show/videogame/death match genre? What was that indie movie a few years back that had regular people contestants kill each other till there was one standing?
-
it was just a quick Anderson hate post, I know it wasn't the most inspired. But that's what his take on the Resident Evil franchise was, diarrhea in my eyes. Not to mention AvP... pure water shit.
-
I just snorted tea through my nose @ wetarded stupid-head. lmao
-
i find it funny coming here and seeing all the hate for some directors. i can understand hating all their movies and thinking they're bad but some of you seem to actually personally hate the directors. if i hated all the directors of the movies i hate, man i'd pretty much hate all the so called masters. some people have trouble seperating the movie from the movie makers and you really shouldnt.
-
The only Paul Anderson flick I saw was resident evil I think and I thought it was pretty stupid. The guy makes movies that certain people like and he's successful. He's also making movies while a bunch of wannabe moviemakers sit at home in their Moms basement (I'm including myself in this equation)bitching and moaning about it while he's living the life and his dream. I haven't seen any of his other films cuz I just don't like those type of movies, but I give him props for doing it. Everyone else has the freedom of not watching any of flicks.
-
An awesome throwback, full of real stunts, lots of gratuitous violence, it's Anderson's best movie by far.
-
Paul Weak.Sauce Anderson or Paul Wants.Shooting Anderson as distinct possibilities
-
Fuck the haters. But this prequel seems wholly unnecessary. Without Statham it will suck.
-
Didn't the directors cut of Event Horizon come out on DVD a while back? Or am I getting confused in my old age?
-
People, take the day off. We'll try again tomorrow.
-
it wasn't his body and fuck if I recognized his voice. But, at least they did the right thing and put him in it in some capacity. So now I can say I officially like the movie. Statham is one of the few action stars today I like.
-
What the hell are you talking about you dip shit?? The Resident Evil series needed a change with game play and story and got it with Resident Evil 4. All people agree that that was the best game yet in the series. RE5 didn't do as well, because it didn't offer anything new. I swear you morons just get on this site to speak a bunch of nonsense, when you don't know what the hell your talking about!!
-
Matthew Vaughn must remake that instead after Kickass kick's ass.
-
RE4 is considered the best of the videogame franchise, even those finicky douches at G4TV/X-Play gave it 5 stars.the sequel was a big step in terms of control, gameplay and content.sure there were a few that were left diapointed in RE5, but goddamn if the game wasn't addictive. I have no idea what a reboot would consist of I mean, once you go as far as killing off the main antagonist while adding closure to the storyline, what else is there? A remake?
-
PEOPLE STILL PAY ANDERSON MONEY FOR MOVIES! HAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHA
-
Let's try to keep it where we got it okay?
-
Ouch!@Stabs
-
it would be the Resident Evil Movies. just get a better director who would really take this shit more seriously. (meaning no superheroine chick with the ability to run up walls while kicking zombie dogs..oh, and then there's that shit in which she can control flames.)The reboot has to be more canon to the source material of course.
-
Come on people. Is it that hard to think of the word worthless when you are thinking of Anderson.
-
Making Nemesis a good guy, damn. I know he didn't direct that one... but still, and those blurry zombies. What the hell are they gonna do with all those Alices?
-
How about Paul "Wunderkind Stylist" Anderson
"Wandering Samurai"
"Wilted Spinach"
"Wascally Sucker"
"Wretched Simpleton"
"Wanton Sexfiend"
See what you started?
-
You have a winner!!
-
what the fuck do you guys have???
-
lucky bastard
-
When I watched Death Race, all I kept asking myself was "How did this race come into being? Who had the original idea? What committees did it need to go through for approval?" Thank you, Paul, I look forward to having those questions answered!

Paul "Whistling Sphincter" Anderson

by forsakyn
The greatest incestual lesbian orgy scene EVER caught on film.
-
As in "ass like a"...thank you I'm here all night!
-
and your point being....
-
i meant RE5.
yeah RE4 is a great game,although i dont consider it the best of the series since its more action-oriented and less survival-horror.
on the other hand,RE5 went one step towards and 2 steps back,it had interesting ideas but at the end it was a big disappointment for the franchise.Capcom should take lessons from Valve and their L4D zombie masterpiece. -
@Forsakyn, I might pay for that if it wasnt directed by this douche bag.
-
RE5 Sucked that they killed Wesker, I guess they were bored with the umbrella angle they want to have more freedom in the stories.
-

RE4 WAS A MASTERPIECE, RE5 WAS WEAK, RE6 SHOULD BE......
by carlthormark1978
A return to Survival Horror with a strong story and an accent on mood and atmosphere, otherwise the RE series is just going to turn into a non-stop shoot'em up like Left 4 Dead which is a good game but not what I want from RE.
-
You mean to tell me that you didn't like the fight between Chris and wesker ala Matrix camera angles? The predictable Jill valentine subplot? the gears of war-esque gunplay? kicking ass in High Res while playing Versus online?!!?Ouch, you have crushed me. :( seriously, despite it's flaws, the game kept me coming back (hey, what's cooler than collecting money to pimp out your guns?) more than I expected, i wish there was more to L4D, but it's been collecting dust in my game cabinet. it's OK for what it is but when online i always end up playing as the boomer.fuuuuckk!

PAUL WANKER SCUMBAG ANDERSON MIGHT HAVE MILLA JOVOVICH......
by carlthormark1978
But the fact is that she's had more cocks in her then Hollywood has crack whores.
-
they killed ol' Albert. But he went out almost unstopable and yet remembered for the badass antagonist of most horror action games.Oh, and Paul Weiner Squirt Anderson fucked up Wesker's appearance in the last RE Movie.Douche. He hasn't been good since Event horizon.AVP PG-13? fucking hack.
-
Game, set, match.
-
Wyld Stallions was awesome, NinjaRap.
-
As I recall, in the first movie there was like a qualifying race...but then the good guys used the main race to escape!
Going in I thought it would be a movie about badass races. I hope this prequel has more actual RACES...creatives ones please. -
ok, that was lame.
-
and the other unlockables,was a nice replay feature,but the single/coop player aspect of the game was just meh.
check yahtzee's review,i agree with most of the complaints he makes:http://tinyurl.com/dngaqu
i hope RE6 will return back to its horror-survival roots,with more scares and less action. -
Was the "shit on the sidewalk" line. Also, I greatly enjoyed talking with my friend post-film about how we could have written a better movie.
-
One of things i really liked about it though, was because it felt more like a spin off then a remake, with David Carradine's cameo as the voice of Frankenstien at the start of the the film.
kind of disapointed if they are going to go the prequal route. -
After the concept was introduced...the flaw in the film was that it lacked the innocent lives being taken by a completely reckless to the death car race on public roads... As a kid, I don't understand WHY but I was exposed one Saturday morning to a few minutes of the original film on TV no less, and It left a mark in my brain that lasts until this day, the idea of the heartless bastards running over anyone in their way was astonishing to me, couple that with old people and people in wheelchairs??? there was no holding back...the remake had no balls when you compare the simple audacity of the original...if I were to revisit this property, it would have to be balls out death to innocents, on public roads...body count as high as possible...with lots of unique kills...I mean, it is called DEATH RACE...not race around an old wearhouse...I like Statham, bring him back, make it a hard R and kill people , sheesh...enough with the watered down crap...
-
1. As mentioned, more ACTUAL races.
2.Get rid of the whole female navigator crap. That was dumb. It all felt like an excuse to show hot women in slow-motion in the trailer. But the hot women somewhere else. Not in the car.
3. MORE CARS. The first one had a Mustang. Toss in some Camaros, Challengers, and import rally cars. Have the young male audience looking for their car during the movie.
4. More environments. That brownish industrial environment would be boring to see again.
5. Get Stone Cold Steve Austin and Kurt Angle as drivers. Wrestlers suit a movie like this.
Okay, I'm done pretending I know stuff and that people are actually reading. -
anderson said in the dvd commentary,that they wanted to have exotic cars in the movie,but the problem was that these specific cars would look bizzare with all the weaponry and plate attachments,and moreover they didnt fit with the prison atmosphere.so they went for a more retro,muscle car style
personally i agree with his approach,but i fucking would like to see ferrarics and lotus in ferocious battles in more open environments. -
I think Camaros and Challengers fit into the muscle car style.
Throwing in some imports like Imprezas and Evos...along with BMWs...would be awesome too. Maybe throw in a comic relief car here or there too...like a souped up Hyundai Accent or Scion xB...Thatd be badass! It would be cool to have the audience looking for their cars in the movie and cheering it on. -
SO says Benjamin Button.
-
fuck it indeed. who gives a rats ass about this fuckers movies. they all blow cocks.
-
about this shit and not that the amazing Frank "Child Killer" Darabont is making The Walking Dead movie!!! that is AWESOME news!!!
-
I too am going to stick up for this guy. Ever since Harry first started lambasting Anderson, every time his name comes up, it's pile-on time. I love "Event Horizon" - creepy, weird, suspenseful (and I don't care what the original screenplay read like - I'm going on the basis of what I saw one night on HBO and went nuts over). And "Death Race" was a blast! For all the haters, seriously, what were you expecting?? It's B-movie time with souped-up cars with weapons trying to kill each other! It was over the top stupid silly summer fun and gave me exactly what was advertised. I'd be willing to be if Anderson had slapped a pseudonym on the director credit, this site would be fawning all over that film. Save your hate for Uwe - Anderson is a good, solid B movie maker. (And I'd rather watch "Death Race" again than ever sit through QT's awful blabfest "Death Proof" which this site creamed over!)
-
I do believe I just read that report on here a couple of hours ago m8 :)
-
actually they reported it yesterday :)
-
Every day, he wakes up, fucks Milla Jovovich, works on a sci-fi movie, goes home, fucks Milla Jovovich again, then rolls over and sleeps on a bed paid with your money. Lots of your money. No wonder you guys hate him....
-
How has no one made that game into a movie?With all the other crap out there, you'd think a Fast and the Furious meets Death Race would be greenlit quicker than anything with 'From the guys who brought you 40 Year Old Virgin' in the trailer.

palimpsest, TOO BAD HE'S NOT GOOD AT ANY OF THOSE THINGS.
by carlthormark1978
-
aside from maybe Vern?
-
my bad.
-
Everyone was making funny comments about what the initials WS mean.Classic stuff on here as always.
-
and "summer popcorn movie". Jaws was a summer popcorn movie. The Bonds were fun, action movies, and with a few exceptions were no insult to one's intelligence. Death Race was more of a blueprint for a videogame, the rules of the race with the "power-ups" that were driven over are directly from videogames, than an actual movie. I'm tired of having to turn my brain off to enjoy what passes for popular action films nowadays.
-
I really liked Event Horizon too but he the muthafucka made Aliens vs Predator and (maybe tempoarily) fucked up two of the best geek franchises of all time... seriously how do you turn that concept into utter shit? I get the point that he makes fun movies but he needs to not ruin other decent products. Stick to original material.
I thought 'water shit' was pretty thought provoking in a weird way. -
because the first one was so good.
-
I like "women's shoes" the best even though I'm not sure what it means.
-
but thanks Vern ;) Did you see there's a guy posting as water_shit_anderson, I swear its not me.
-
Will Adama be a stalker?
-
and your point being.....BTW that Brit twit did not get all my money as i only paid once to see one of his shifests and that was on a first date mind you. needless to say that she was so disapointed that she gave up the buns (booty)afterwards.The other crap was either aired on Cable TV or Netflix.He could fuck that hosebag Milla all he wants, can't hate on the bloke for that but yes how does he and uwe get to fuck up great intellectual properties?It's baffling.And for the record I didn't care for Death Proof either, fucker.
-
Johnny Ahab or Arab whatever the fuck he calls himself.
-
Check it out: He makes a movie that is barely passable. Resident Evil, Death Race, AvP (Scratch that last one but you know what i mean) and then produces the second one. He then hires rookie directors to step up (previously DP's or Effects guys or whatever)who then create abysmal sequels. So atrociously bad that people look back at his original work and see Oscar worthy material in comparison. I actually liked Mortal Kombat for throwaway shite as a movie. Didnt take itself too seriously. Event Horizon i thought was genuinely good in many ways. Soldier was not great and AvP broke my heart.

Of course they'd make a prequel, it makes so much sense!
by kevin_costners_recycled_piss
I mean, there were so many unanswered questions left after the first one, I for one lie awake at night wondering what events led up to the begining of Death Race and just praying that someone would delve into the mystery that is Jason Statham's character.
-
It was a comic released in the late 90's I believe. It was called Death Race 2020. Pretty good stuff.
-
People will be asking "What the fuck is Big Lob doing in this movie?"
-
Paul Walker drove a new STI and Vin Diesel drove what I believe was a classic Camaro SS. There were almost no trendy new cars to cheer for (at last for me)!
This movie should give us all the hip new cars that young men are saving up for....Challengers, Evos, Genesis, CTS....we must cheer for our car! -
Bay can do whatever he wants. Just blast this guy into the sun.
-
(spoilers) I don't know what the fuck Harry and Co. were smoking when they saw this movie and all gave it rave reviews but don't believe the hype. The first half hour the guy playing Duke (total tool) yells, "Drop the case, Anna!" no less than ten times I shit you not. Marlon Wayans should never be allowed to do anything other than the Scary Movie franchise. He exists in this movie only to be the token funny black guy who says things like "my boy," "my bad," and "Damn, that bitch is fast!" He's supposed to be one of the best and baddest soldiers in the world? Getthefuckouttahere. SnakeEyes is bad ass I'll give them that but that's more a credit to Ray Parks. Somebody in another TB mentioned this already that Cobra invades G.I. Joe HQ with only a small squadron where it was just established there were hundreds of G.I. Joe's and suddenly there's only a handful to fight back. The chase scene of the Joe's chasing Cobra through the streets of Paris had so much civillian death and destruction from cars being destroyed I thought I was watching a live action version of TEAM AMERICA: WORLD POLICE. If you're gonna cause THAT much in lives and property damage just to save the fucking Eiffel Tower, just let Cobra destroy the fucking thing already. The nanobots were right out of THE DAY THE EARTH STOOD STILL remake with Keannu Reeves, which should tell you something right there if they are ripping off that piece of shit movie. Oh and the "Accelerator Suits," well, somewhere John Favreau is really pissed. I realize there are only so many ways you can shoot someone in a body armor but when you see it for yourself (if you put yourself thru the misery) you will notice striking similarities to the Iron Man armor and how it is assembled on the person. Johnathan Pryce plays a U.S. President with a slight English accent. The ending is a Star Wars rip with Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow swordfighting (Luke and Vader) while the Duke and the Baroness (Han and Princess Leia) do their bit, and the G.I.Joe's fight Cobra in a massive undersea battle (that looks like spaceships) to destroy Cobra's massive battlestation (Deathstar). This is a perfect companion piece movie in suckage with TRANSFORMERS 2. Thank God I downloaded both and paid for neither. I don't know how on Earth Harry and Co. slammed TRANSFORMERS 2 (rightfully so) and then praised G.I.JOE. They're both just terrible, terrible movies.
-
And it was well done good, stupid fun too. It was exactly the sort of movie it set out to be (and that it advertised itself as) so why is everyone getting their knickers in a twist over it?
-
From what I understand, the Accelerator suits were vetted in the comics, long before Favreau rolled on anything. Personally I found it fun and true to a lot of JOE stuff in the past. I just can't get my head around Harry praising JOE for the same things he slammed TF2 for...
-
My problem wasn't so much that they existed but the scene where they are being put on with all the mecha quickly tightening bolts and shit seemed right out of IRON MAN.
-
does this bloke still get work?? Paul 'WANK STAIN' Anderson
-
We already know that you all hate big dumb action movies, and yearn for the days of yore, when, miraculously, every single action movie was a spectacle for the brain, not just the eyes.
you were fucking eight years old, guys. -
You are a fucking hypocrite! In the D9 thread you're fucking shutting people down for seeing blockbuster movies, and then you yourself go see the Damn movie! Fucking asshole.

Do we care? No. Prequel to Event Horizon? Yes.
by stereotypical evil archer
But not a super excited "yes", just a maybe I'll catch a matinee "yes".
-
doesn't rip off Star Wars. It rips off the James Bond movie Tnunderball.
-
A prequel to a remake that didn't do that great at the box office or in critic's review? Stupefying.
-
If ANYONE cared to listen to the commentary on the newest DEATH RACE DVD you would already know that IT was a prequel to Death Race 2000!!!
-
The movie sucked fucking cock just like everything else this shitfuck has ever directed. If you enjoy this shit you are as fucking moronic as your shitty sad attempts to defend this crap.

by gibsonusa returns
As for the others
LIKED:

Resident Evil 2
NOT SO MUCH:
Mortal Kombat 2
Resident Evil 3
AVP
I'm not sure if Paul Anderson had anything to do with MK2, but it was horrible. The first one was so cool, when it came out, but the second just stuffed all these characters in and became so lame. I keep wishing that they would release a MK3 that ignores MK2 and keeps building off the vibe of MK1. -
Oh... nevermind.
-
Seriously, he is the only reason why I watch dopey movies like this. I saw the trailer for that Gerard Butler movie (similar concept to Death Race) that's coming out and I kept thinking "why no J. Statham?".
-
You typed "Water Shit" 5 times. Who's the bigger fool, the fool or the fool who follows him?
-
because everyone's seen the original. Or intends to.
-
Niiiice
-
and I really enjoyed it. I'm afraid to watch it again minus the influence of alcohol.
-
Two biggest wrestlers ever. That ought to cover fot Statham.
-
you got the wrong guy, stoopid. And yeah, I watched it but I didn't pay for it. Or can't you read?
-
Well I am in fact a gentleman but I didn't apologize to anybody, you dumb feces-fixated motherfucker. At least I briefly described a couple reasons why I enjoyed DEATH RACE. All you did was mention dicks and shit five times in two sentences.
Don't get me wrong, I think most of Paul Wild Style Anderson's movies are crappy too, but I happen to think DEATH RACE and SOLDIER are more enjoyable than most of the lowbrow sci-fi/action of that type they make these days. Look up my reviews for details. You seem like the reading type.
I bet you could come up with an actual point and then write it down in words instead of that fuckin gibberish. Do that, then you can call me names. But if you can't come up with anything besides poo and blowjobs then you don't get to call me a moron you fuckin nitwit. You disgrace the proud heritage of these talkbacks. -

But the only reason I come to these talkbacks is to get a laugh out of the half-witted egotists, spouting their imbecilic profanity in the hope of eventually seeing what might be perceived as a fully formed opinion based on intellectual excerise. You know those thousand monkeys that may eventually come up with a shakespeare play? They look at most of these talkbackers and shake their heads in disbelief. Sometimes I indulge myself and make a pint. Sometimes I join in and spout some shit for fun. Most times I just sit back and giggle :)

- we'll see who shits on the sidewalk!" One of my all-time favorite lines. By Oscar nominated actress Joan Allen.

I have to say your flaming posters here is WAY more dull than some of the retarded profanity which has always been a mainstay of these boards. One post is retarded, the next post is interesting, very few are boring. And to make a case for PWSA is an interesting angle but it goes way against the grain of the WHOLE sites view on this director for years. I agree Soldier is ok too. It's OK yeah.

Russell took the role, then said wait, let's not film now. Give me a year to get jacked up, and he did. If I recall he didn't speak more than eight lines in the whole movie. It was all muscle, expression, and mayhem.

By now this guy is beyond therapy.

to the fact they had a really good script, the perfect actor for mthe role, and it was all fucked up by the director's incompetence. It could had been a contender, all they needed as just a proper director.
-
Stallone was in the original.
He has matured into a superior director a la Eastwood.
Therefore I petition thee to pressure that old whore that is Hollywood, to drop Anderson,to bend over and take the oiled F.I.S.T.that is Balboa Mc Rambo. -
Yeah, despite the fact that one is the work of a fair-to-average director and one is the work of an absolute genius, I'd choose the fair-to-average director's effort any day of the week. Go figure.

better, it definitely wasn't the steaming pile a lot of people make it out to be.

The movies, not the video games.
Although it should've been a Direct to DVD sequel, at least it didn't mess with the Video Games' story, It didn't portray nemesis as the good guy, have you ever played Resident Evil: Nemesis? that guy is a pain in the ass, not a good guy. And when they fought the crows was a cool scene. -

The Italian Job sucks?
Lock, Stock & Two Smoking Barrels sucks?
Snatch sucks? -
I once caught RE2 on the Lifetime Channel. Yeah, that one. But everytime Mike Epps says 'Motherfucker', it's dubbed over with the word 'Motivator'. And he says it A LOT. It was fucking hilarious.

..as RE extinction was a blatant rippoff of various movie genres i.e. mad max,the birds and a bit of Day of the Dead ergo lacking originality.The scene with the "Re educated" Zombie was laughable as he was holding a Sony ericsson phone (product placement FTW)Oh, and there's Alice ability to control flames, LT not being infected right away only to bite carlos who as a last gesture smokes one of LT's joints before going kaboom.Claire's portrayal was nothing like the game and where's fukkin Chris? not even a mention of his name. It's almost like doing an Avengers movie sans Captain America.For that matter, Wesker was less than underused his role was nothing more than some CEO.well, at least they finally placed a Tyrant in the damn movie series.You mentioned Nemesis portrayal non canon to the game RE3, well that scene in which Matt/Nemmy turned on Umbrella was a page taken from RoTJ. How "original" but it made for an interesting plot twist.Matt slowy regained what was left of his humanity, thanks to Super Alice. *sigh* As a guilty pleasure RE apocalypse was doable, but it's a 90 turn from the original source material. That chick that played Jill Valentine looks exactly like the game counterpart.atleast Paulie got that right.everything else........,p>.....well?

Only leader I remember was Claire played by Ali Larter.Who had her hair dyed Reddish.Well, she is hot if you ask me. (why the fugg did she star in that trainwreck of a movie called obsessed with Beyonce is beyond my comphrehension.)RE3 had potentual but ultimately felt like a rush job with too many rehashed ideas.Should have subtitled; Send in the Clones.

I am not concerned about being true to the videogame storyline....I am concerned about not being bored.
RE2 was loads of city fun....RE3 was wandering the desert. -
