AICN Exclusive! Here's Some Pics From LOCKOUT With Guy Pearce!
Nordling here.
Sure, it's an obvious play off ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK, but the trailer is all kinds of fun, and if the phrase "trampolining your wife" enters the public vernacular I'm all for it. LOCKOUT opens April, 2012, and here's some exclusive photos for you to enjoy (click to embiggen!):
Hopefully the movie is as fun as the trailers we've seen so far. LOCKOUT opens April 20, 2012.

Isn't this the third time we've heard about this movie and how much "fun" it looks and how the trailer looks "fun" and how much "fun" we will all have watching an obvious Escape from New York ripoff? (But, hey, who cares? It looks like "fun"!) OK, got it. Movie looks fun. Except, does it really? Do we all have to agree on that? I think it looks horrible. And this much time and attention paid to a Guy Pearce film? Really?
-
a no apologies, ridiculous sci-fi action flick the likes we haven't seen since the 80's. and guy pearce!- he should totally take over the Snake mythology. i mean, this totally looks like the next logical 'escape from' flick, done without rights to the Snake name....
-
I'll see this.
-
Escape from New York 1 and 2 combined with Outland with a dash of No Escape?
-
where... they... are...
-
Or just Fortress : )
-
I will really enjoy this movie. Excited.
-
I mean, Pliskin (sp?) wasn't this much of a smart-ass.

Wait a minute, shouldn't this be another John Carter article?
by Jaster Mareel
Isn't it some sort of rule that no more than 8 articles are allowed to go by without a John Carter one?

If this didn't star Guy Pearce there'd be 99.8 % negativity about this thing. I'll still check it out though.

probably part of some political terrorist faction, staging the kidnapping or takeover or whatever for some reason or other....

her hair looks like it's been recently glazed, if you know what I mean. She must have just come from Dunkin' Donuts.

I know this site wouldn't exist unless you shilled for dumb movies like this. Not complaining, that's just the way business works. We need some kind of code system where you can tell us what you really think without letting the studio know how shitty you think their movies truly is.

Apparently in the future black people are more law abiding than they are now

Sure are a lot of white people in this prison. Reminds me of Oz!

Escape from butcher bay meets alien 3 meets die hard meets metal gear = win.

In order to get away with that writing crime, this had better either be Escape From New York or better. Don't get me wrong, it looks great. But that line sounds like something out of McGruber. I don't even know what the dangers/benefits are of an actual loose cannon, but I would absolutely love a scene in which it is explained that he worded it wrong. He isn't A loose cannon, he in fact OWNS A loose cannon. Then we see him in his back yard with said cannon, trying to fire it or something. It's loose, it's flying around. Things are exploding. He's cursing at it. Cut back to scene in military office. How all they need is a scene in which he complains that no matter how hard he tries to escape his (past, crimes, the war, etc) they keep trying to pull him back in. Or.. *I paid my dues, General. I'm done.* It may sound like I'm nitpicking, but I actually love that shit. If they play it right and give us a genuinely HARD action flick with some great humor, I'll be there with bells on. And I don't take wearing bells lightly. They may make me feel pretty, but they just don't go well with my usual attire.

I HAVE TO watch Escape From New York now. Gahd I love that movie.
-
..and Emerdale fucking Farm! I'm out, i cannot stand his patter.
-
Enough said When will we see some coverage of serious films? Maybe I'm getting old, but this infantile BS sets back my hope for mankind by at least 2000 years

and Hitlers

Ill pass.

Guy Pearce..He's the one actor you can have a mancrush on and not feel gay!! amirite!!!.....
by cameron
...What kind of a fucked up world do we live in when pansy's like Evans, that dude out of 13 going on 30 (REALLY..REALLY!!!!!!!!!) who's name is so forgettable i've forgotten, and RDJ, get millions to play Gayvengers and one of the best actors of his generation gets overlooked!!!! SORT IT OUT HOLLYWOOD. I want Guy to star in a movie where he plays a super ninja assasin that gets assigned to kill all the spandex spastic supersluts, just imagine the pure undiluted joy of Guy kicking Evans in the nuts and turning to a smirking RDJ who quips 'we have a hulk' Guy cuts RDJ head off with a big Ninja sword as hul;k walks in the room, frozen with fear hulk just shits on the floor Guy crosses the room and explains the plot to Memento to Hulk, the big green retard's tiny brain can't comprehend the awesomeness of the movie's story and hulk's head explodes!! Hawkeye....fucking hawkeye jeeze...where do i start with this shmuck...Anyhoo, Hawkeye whips out his bow and arrow, Guy looks at him all 'You fuckin' kiddin' me midget?' then blows Hawkeyes brains all over ScarJos gormless face with that big fuck off machine gun Blane used in Predator!!! Guy smiles coz he don't hit ladiez, he takes a picture of ScarJo on his IPhone with the hot load on her face..'Fuck off Blank Window or i'll post THIS online' Exit ScarJo.... Prick Fury and Agent Colslaw burst in the room..Guy just nukes those muthafukkas with a grenade. Guy wanders outside to see Ming the...i mean Lookee, wookee, whatever the prats name is, standing there all bug eyed mental in his pointy hat. 'Nice stick...Dick.' Guy says...'You wanna see my muthafukkin boomstick sukka!!' BOOM!! Loki's not lookee to goodee with no headee!! Thor crys out 'YOU HATH KILLED MY BROTHER, BY ALL THE GODS!!!' Guy grabs a nail gun and turns the blonde baywatch reject into a pin cushion, loks at the camera and smiles..'Who needs a hammer' At that moment Batman appears and they stand face to face in silence.....Bale takes off the mask and hands it to Guy, you'll be needing this......Batman' Bale says The crowd goes wild and we have our new BATMAN!!! It'd make a Squillioin i tellya!!! Phew.....I all kindsa tired now.....

I predict that LOCKOUT will get along nicely with DOOMSDAY on my DVD and Blu shelf

better than Guy Pearce to take over from Bale as the one and only, top of the superhero/hero food chain.......The BATMAN!!! Hand over the cowl Christian, your time is up!
