god by worldofwarcraft	Mar 6th, 2008 01:57:36 AM
lame as hell, no?
Boom! by acorvey25	Mar 6th, 2008 01:57:50 AM
First again.
Fuck! by acorvey25	Mar 6th, 2008 01:58:03 AM
I flew too high.
Looks horrible, BTW by acorvey25	Mar 6th, 2008 01:59:01 AM
Is anyone looking forward to this "film?"
Is this kid supposed to be the next Big Thing? by worldofwarcraft	Mar 6th, 2008 02:01:22 AM
Cause I don't know if he's good, or his accent is just fooling me, like it did with Statham.
We know the action will be good by krushjudgement	Mar 6th, 2008 02:06:05 AM
This director is the best. The actors are so-so.
Are you sure this is a russian guy by D o o d	Mar 6th, 2008 02:18:18 AM
and not that famous hack Tarsim Singh..? Looks just as void as his movies and the trailer is pretty much the entire movie I bet..!
Why does it look like Jumper? by skywalkerfamily	Mar 6th, 2008 02:21:20 AM
People complain about the CG in I am Legend. Well, the CG in this looks LIKE SHIT!
I think it looks like crap. by Rev. Slappy	Mar 6th, 2008 02:23:45 AM
When the action is so obviously CGI it doesn't allow the audience to care about what happens.
If it was just Angelina Jolie it would be cool by skywalkerfamily	Mar 6th, 2008 02:26:43 AM
but why does the sidekick look like Chuck?
looks much better than ironman by noiretblanc	Mar 6th, 2008 02:27:34 AM
truenuff
fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck. by Jed	Mar 6th, 2008 02:29:25 AM
Fuck this noise. Fuck the white girl. Shithead, Fuckwit, the guy with the evil penis ftw! granted, I had no idea how they were going to depict the devil may care rape comedy, but sheesh, why did they fucking bother.
COUGHThe MatrixCOUGH by ApneicMonkey	Mar 6th, 2008 02:41:17 AM
Looks like my kind of movie - you know, the kind that most AICN TalkBackers say looks crap! ;-)
Fun by Mezzanine	Mar 6th, 2008 02:41:40 AM
There is a time and place for huge butt-fucking dumb explode shit up movies. It's called summer. When class is over, you work all fucking day, and then you have a beer and watch shit catch on fire. This movie will be dumber than the inbred child of your typical Jerry Springer guests, but it will still be fun. And kids the world over will try to "bend" bullets. And America's suburbs will be filled with dead children. Are you happy now, Mark Millar??
another... by Samplelord	Mar 6th, 2008 02:52:39 AM
Dumb comic gets made into a dumb movie...
UNLESS THIS HAS JOLIE IN BLACKFACE I"M NOT INTERESTED by leobloom	Mar 6th, 2008 02:57:19 AM

its a great over the top book by Mr Cairo	Mar 6th, 2008 03:00:20 AM
but the film appears to have tried to go over the top of that and may have gone a bit too far
Would have been cooler if the main kid was fat by Orionsangels	Mar 6th, 2008 03:02:06 AM
No roles for fat young guys these days.
Looks like imaginitive, slick fun... by drwilliamweir	Mar 6th, 2008 03:03:34 AM
Which is what you'd expect from the director of Day/Nightwatch. Just go with the flow and accept how ridiculous it is, have a few cups of blood and enjoy yourself!
GAY! bullets that change direction Wow!!! Durr i'm excited durrr by Orionsangels	Mar 6th, 2008 03:06:19 AM
This looks badass because bullets turn in different directions. I so fell for this and since I liked the Matrix I'll go see this. HERE HAVE ALL MY FUCKING MONEY! TAKE IT! HERE! Seriously Hollywood. Stop insulting the audience already!
I hate Jolie in these roles... by PurityOfEssence	Mar 6th, 2008 03:08:53 AM
The only interest I have in this is based on the fact that it was shot on a RED ONE camera. Otherwise I couldn't give less of a damn...
Never cared much for the book... by blindambition238	Mar 6th, 2008 03:09:31 AM
... especially towards the end. Hopefully the organization is a least evil though since the main essence of the story was a normal guy who decides to lead a life of crime and deviance. Otherwise this is a Matrix rip-off with pretty pictures.
good comic, but by bacci40	Mar 6th, 2008 03:17:17 AM
this movie has so little to do with the comic...who cares...and ive had it up to here with the matrix cgi shit
NO armor + NO Black Sabbath theme song = by TheGhostWhoLurks	Mar 6th, 2008 03:20:03 AM
Iron Man kicking it's butt! :) But it still looks like a decent matinee action flick.
Get over yerselves.... by JafoUK	Mar 6th, 2008 03:29:25 AM
...it's a 'park yer brain at the door and just go for the ride' film. Not expecting a complex plot or eloquent prose but I am expecting Angelina to look hotter than hell and some extreme, 'that could never happen in the real world' action scenes. My brain will be firmly checked into the cloakroom when I enjoy this bad boy......
Err...yet another CGI PG-13 "action" flick? by Motoko Kusanagi	Mar 6th, 2008 03:29:33 AM
Am I supposed to get excited over this? Oh, and frack THE MATRIX bullet time - we had that SEVEN years earlier in Ringo Lam's FULL CONTACT...
Well in the book the main character ended up raping by David Cloverfield	Mar 6th, 2008 03:44:56 AM
every woman (including some celebrities) he came across and murder everybody he knew by the second or third issue. Not to mention the whole "Supervillains are real" stuff. Some things seems to be lost in translation.
Angelina Jolie........Ohh mannnn........... by y7jver01	Mar 6th, 2008 03:50:09 AM
Why the fuck is she so hooooottttt???? Its fuckin amazing.. she literally makes u jack-off even when shes fully dressed!!!! Amazing...
Look at how much weight Jolie lost. she's a by GQtaste	Mar 6th, 2008 03:59:12 AM
skelaton. She looks like somebody she trys to help in one of those thrid world countries. Yeah, that'a a turn on for men. For a leading lady, who supposedly is a hitman to be 98lbs. When will these women get in their dumbass brains that men like their sex symbols to be healthy looking? Because most men its a turnoff for somebody they lust after to look frail and gaut looking.
i know kung fu by Pipple	Mar 6th, 2008 04:05:07 AM
man the matrix really revolutionized action movies or something.
And another thing about Jolie: by GQtaste	Mar 6th, 2008 04:15:06 AM
It's quit ironic that she's some sort of Audrey Hepburn wannabe. With all the goodwill pr bullshit she does. Going on to Iraq, all the charities, Goodwill Ambassador for UNHCR, adoptions, the UN stuff she does. But she continues to make action films where she kills people, and playing wackos, for which she won the oscar. Anybody else she the dichotomy of these two things?
Has Angelina Jolie ever been in a good movie? by kwisatzhaderach	Mar 6th, 2008 04:30:44 AM
I can't think of any off the top of my head. This looks terrible.
They realized how shitty that trailer looked by Motoko Kusanagi	Mar 6th, 2008 04:36:32 AM
and just pulled the plug a few minutes ago!
why to fuck she is so skinny? by frg10	Mar 6th, 2008 05:05:37 AM
Bring back the good old days of J. Lo and her butt photos before she got married to this "you can't call yourself J.Lo anymore. You are a grown woman" dude Marc Anthony.
R not PG-13 by Sex Farm Responds	Mar 6th, 2008 05:35:45 AM

The comic is pretty amazing stuff... by sonnyfern	Mar 6th, 2008 06:29:44 AM
...a little derivitive, but still pretty awesome. I know they re-wrote the script until the writer of the comic gave it his approval, so this might not turn out too horrible. But I like the look of the trailer a lot, looks like a fun over the top good time!
Kill one save a thousand. by Mockingbuddha	Mar 6th, 2008 06:39:40 AM
This line typifies everything I hate about Morgan Freeman. It's a CRAP line and he's got lines like that in every movie he's in. Attention directors! Whenever you think about casting Morgan Freeman call Danny Glover because he's a good enough actor to pull off these crap roles without sucking.
Looks like unimaginative Matrixy CG shit! by FILMFUNK	Mar 6th, 2008 07:31:11 AM
how can you curve a bullet by swishing the gun around? or am I already thinking too much!
Ummmm I'm Hooked by MrPopular	Mar 6th, 2008 07:45:28 AM
I wanna c it
Angelina needs to eat a steak. by rbatty024	Mar 6th, 2008 08:07:00 AM
Did you see those arms, they're like fuckin' toothpicks. I'm surprised she's capable of lifting those guns.
Nightwatch was wretched... by Osmosis Jones	Mar 6th, 2008 08:15:20 AM
...and Angelina Jolie is ugly.
That kind of bullet killed JFK actually by ludmir88	Mar 6th, 2008 08:33:17 AM
oswald was the shit.
WANTED looks even shittier now after the WATCHMEN pics by SpyGuy	Mar 6th, 2008 08:35:17 AM
But hey, you stray from the source material too much and this is what happens. Way to waste a fun concept, people...
This movie looks so fucking stupid... by Francis Begbie	Mar 6th, 2008 08:38:54 AM
A horrible rip-off of The Matrix. Angelina Jolie = Trinity Character Morgan Freeman = Morpheus James Macavoy = Neo
Jolie by Morrollan	Mar 6th, 2008 08:47:40 AM
How does she keep gettin work? She is a marginal actor at best and her life outside of movies is such a joke and cover up for daddy didnt love me ,who would want to deal with the train wreck? They did the script with only one issue of comic complete ,great idea fucktards.
Looks awful by Zandunga	Mar 6th, 2008 09:08:33 AM
This looks so cheesy & over the top that it can't possibly go well. It's fluff for meatheads...even the cool-looking things are so ridiculous it's insulting. I think the director zoomed right past 'stylish' and dove straight into 'overblown CG pap'.
Why Do Studios Release Trailers on F-ing MySpace by cowboyone	Mar 6th, 2008 09:25:03 AM
It's a crap viewing experience!
My God what a bunch of Whine Asses by rollnstns	Mar 6th, 2008 10:18:44 AM
it's unrealistic... You can't curve a bullet... Bad news guys light sabers aren't real either. I don't know about you guys, but i enjoy sitting down and saying and watching eye candy. I like the type of movies where I see things that don't happen in real life. And to whoever said that the actors in this movie sucked. I see 2 Oscar winners up on that screen.
'Bad news guys light sabers aren't real either' by JafoUK	Mar 6th, 2008 10:28:25 AM
On the plus side, this also means that Optimus Prime with flames on doesn't exist either.....
by volumedealer1	Mar 6th, 2008 10:43:41 AM
They fuck the idea and look up on this movie...meh
You guys are just pissed its not the comic by bullet3	Mar 6th, 2008 11:02:42 AM
Jeez, wah, wah, wah, they didn't adapt your favorite comic-book about rapist supervillains. Get past the source material and just judge the movie on its own terms. Is it too CG for my taste? Yes It also happens to have some of the most inventive visuals I've ever seen in a hollywood movie.
acorvey25 didn't get first HAHAHAHA by FlyinHawaiian	Mar 6th, 2008 01:22:55 PM
And then he tried to play it off like no one noticed. Fucking faggot.
ludmir88! by eraser_x	Mar 6th, 2008 01:23:46 PM
That JFK joke cracked me up big time. It belongs in the Talkback Hall of Fame for sure! Thanks!
Mezzanine... by micturatingbenjamin	Mar 6th, 2008 01:27:21 PM
Goddamn, dude. That was some funny shit. No, really, Connor, I can 'bend bullets'! No way Ashton! BANG. Fade to black screen with the word, 'Harmless?'. That said, I didn't really take Wanted too seriously, beyond being a really funny series about a bad guy's son. This is something completely different. Not a mystery, it's like Tom Sawyer in 'League of Extraordinary Gentlemen'...Glossy balls. Looks pretty fun, but NOT the comic.
The trailer was awesomely over-the-top! by eraser_x	Mar 6th, 2008 01:27:23 PM
I'm surprised that so many haters didn't appreciate the manic energy in the thing. (Of course, the movie might be a letdown (and probably will be), but the trailer was great!)
Looking forward to it by kafka07	Mar 6th, 2008 01:44:00 PM
The director is awesome. I can't wait to see what he brings to the US.
Looks like a Scion commercial... by KillDozer	Mar 6th, 2008 02:10:16 PM
which is fine if you're trying to sell cars, and not fine if you're trying to build any sort of tension in your action scenes. Pass.
Is this the Too Fast Too Shitty sequel? by skywalkerfamily	Mar 6th, 2008 02:31:21 PM
Okay, I admit the car chase looked kinda cool, but I will wait for the DVD for this.
I'm glad it's not like the comic by drewlicious	Mar 6th, 2008 02:38:20 PM
The makeup of all the villains (shithead, johnny two-dicks) made me laugh but the tone of the whole thing left me feeling really sour. Not a sympathetic face in the whole bunch, not even the protagonist (he raped people for crying out loud), and could you imagine sitting through 90 minutes of that. If it's over-the-top enough it might be fun. As for Angelina Jolie's weight, yeah she has definitely seen better days but she lost all that weight not for her career but because the death of her mother devastated her. I don't buy into this tabloid bullshit, none of that crap is any of my business, but if I were Brad Pitt I'd be begging her to eat something because a weight loss like that scares the kids. Children are perceptive enough to know when something's wrong.
cant believe I even watchted that trailer by ClockWorker	Mar 6th, 2008 03:03:47 PM
I knew this movie was going to blow before nothings changed
Anyone see the Watchmen costumes? by skywalkerfamily	Mar 6th, 2008 03:07:35 PM
Wow. Talk about teh suck!
Looks pretty good, to me. But I wonder..... by JDanielP	Mar 6th, 2008 03:31:11 PM
.....what the comic book creator(s) think of it. Normally, I'd be a little miffed about the movie not pulling from the original comic book material. But I can't make that argument...since I've never read any of the books. And to me, this looks interesting enough.
FUCK YOU bullet-time!!!!! by Billy Batts	Mar 6th, 2008 04:31:41 PM
Slowing down the action to show bullets and cars flying around has RUINED so many movies in the last 10 years. That stuff only makes sense in the Matrix universe. It takes the dramatic tension and sense of danger out of every freaking scene when people can see and react to bullets and stuff.
Is that the bullet that killed Kennedy? by skywalkerfamily	Mar 6th, 2008 04:36:16 PM
It's TRUE!! Eat that Kevin Costner.
super gay by Spazatronic 2000	Mar 6th, 2008 04:48:48 PM
neat, bending bullets that's so incredible and ground-breaking.
FlyinHawaiian, what's with... by Screamin822	Mar 6th, 2008 04:49:37 PM
...the need to use a word like "faggot" like it's ok? This goes for other people who frequent talkback too and feel the need to use words like that. Just...uncalled for...? As for this flick, I really dug Nightwatch. Still haven't seen Daywatch, but this looks like trashy, flashy fun.
Fuckin A to whoever said this would be better by crayon	Mar 6th, 2008 05:56:40 PM
with a fat kid as the protagonist! That said, the trailer was enough to get me interested. Not in a "WOW THIS IS GOING TO BE AN INSTANT CLASSIC IN MY MOVIE SHELF I SHOW TO EVERYONE" way, but in a "look, pretty stuff" kinda way. And I thought The Matrix was overrated to shit, so I give two shits if marks think it's getting ripped off. Maybe they'll put the effects in a movie better than the turdfest that was Reloaded and Revolutions combined.
I would be excited for this film... by THT3000	Mar 6th, 2008 06:01:29 PM
... if they didn't have to use the friggin Wanted name. Everything about this movie falls in the shadow of the butchering.
REWATCH by BurgerTime	Mar 6th, 2008 07:41:43 PM
J-Lo's strip-tease scene in Out of Sight. Sweet candy-coated Jesus that's a woman.
It actually looks kinda cool. by El Fuego	Mar 6th, 2008 08:50:52 PM
Derivative as fuck? Absolutely, but I'm thinking the action scenes will be worth watching.
F this movie by a2thamizzo	Mar 6th, 2008 09:04:02 PM
Folks, go check out the graphic novel. It's so patently different, it pisses me off this is being called an adaptation. It's like with 'I Am Legend' - a movie they call an 'adaptation', but they change the story so much that you could call it 'inspired by' at best, and it's like they just paid for the rights to use the name/title from the source material in the hopes of name recognition. Faithful in spirit is one thing (I thought V for Vendetta was a decent adaptation b/c it was faithful in spirit to the comics even though it changed alot of stuff), altering the setting/premise of the story fundamentally is another thing altogether. But seriously folks, check out the graphic novel. It's fun, and I think most people would ultimately be disappointed that the movie is not adhering a little closer.
Angelina by top1tony	Mar 7th, 2008 01:46:17 PM
She looks sooo good in leather
