First Look LOBO Script Review!

would be great to see happen, i loved him in stas/jlu.
 
WB seems to have better luck with lower budgets. They get this down to 300 level budget and they'd probably move forward with it.
 
What was the budget for 300?

According to Box Office Mojo it was $65 million. I can see a good Lobo movie with a budget like that.
 
Thanks, they could def do Lobo movie for that price :)

I know I'll probably get flamed for this, but I always thought Lobo would be a great role for

Lobo:

Lobo starts in Czarnia, a devastated planet. A rescue team searches for survivors among the debris, and find a baby. They're moved by that discovery, but, when the baby nearly tears one of the rescuers fingers apart with his mouth, he's left to die. His name? Lobo.

Years later, Lobo is an adult, skilled and mercyless bounty-hunter, caged by the Galatic Empire for his actions. One day, four dangerous alien criminals also captive by the Empire set free, and start looking for a mysterious object that can be used as a mass destruction weapon. Sided with Lobo, those four convicts are the most dangerous creatures of the Universe, and so, the Empire offers Lobo his freedon and his bounty-hunter license back if he manages to track down the convicts and, capture them and take them back in 24h.

Lobo's search leds him to Earth, in the small city of Indiana, where whe meet Kayla McGuee, a young and rebelious girl who posseses a strange necklace gave to her by her absent biological father. The necklace is the key for what the criminals are looking for: An artefact know as The Drown.

Both, Lobo and the criminals, find their way to Kayla's house, where a fight ensues. The villains escape, mistaking Kayla's adoptive father with the man they're looking for, as a hostage. Kayla tells Lobo about the Drown, and he tells her that it is a ancient artefact capable of giving telechinetical powers to it's owner. In case, Kayla's father, and, as such, she has mental habilities of her own. The duo unites to find the convicts before they use the necklace to track down Kayla's father and the Drown.
 
Sounds cool. Don't see it happening now with Watchmens box office returns.
 
what watchmen did in BO shouldnt matter other characters getting off the ground. If wb thinks they got a great script they should move on it.
 
So guys who'd be your cast, we need Lobo, Kayla McKee a young punk Earth girl, and four other bounty hunters who are the most dangerous beings in the universe not named Lobo.
 
Well, there are a bunch of good choices
I actually dont mind your choice The Rock. He was good in Gridiron Gang, but hes mostly doing family movies now
Mickey Rourke would have been perfect but hes doing Iron Man 2
Maybe Danny Trejo if he could get rid of the accent
Same with Gerard Butler. Since they describe Lobo as "alien Snake" they were gonna cast Butler in Escape from Ny remake so he might be good if he can lose the accent

IDK who else
 
Billy: Hey Mr. Warner!

Warner: Yes Billy?

Billy: You know what would be cool... if like... if like... you put Lobo IN A SUPERMAN REBOOT MOVIE!!!!

Warner: Now Now Billy... we all know Superman is unrealistic and boring... now a villain who fights other villains in the absence of a hero.... NOW THAT'S STORYTELLING... just like Old Man Marvel's Venom movie...

Billy: :csad:

GALACTIC EMPIRE??? ARE YOU SERIOUS? STAR WARS ripoff much? What about the New Gods or even the Guardians of Oa since they are making GL

I mean.. yeah, I totally see it :hehe:

Yeah because there are people that loo like Lobo :whatever:

He might not be the greatest actor, but a role like Lobo plays to what he can do, be an over the top intimidating musclebound bad ass, and spout off one liners.

Quite frankly, all I've ever seen you do is roll your eyes at peoples suggestions in EVERY casting thread, and yet I've NEVER seen you suggest anyone for any role.

Make some suggestions for roles, since you clearly are far superior at this than everyone else :o

Also, why earth? why does earth have to be in every alien movie now a days? Is the GA so dumb that their fragile minds can't accept a planet that is not earth?

Yeah, he is doing family movies, but that's because no one is offering him Statham's roles. Captain Marvel is on hold, so this is something that I feel would fit him. All Dwayne Johnson needs to do for Lobo, is act like The Rock.
 
The role of Lobo requires a hell of a lot more than just "acting like The Rock".

I disagree. Lobo is a big over the top loudmouth who has the ability to kick damn near anyone's ass. I really don't think he'd be all that difficult to pull off.
 
Jeffrey Dean Morgan is alredy in The Losers.

If Shazam doesn't happen right now, I'd be in for Dwayne Johnson as Lobo.

Jessica Stroup could be Kayla.

The Bounty-Hunters are harder, because we don't know how they are. From the video, it seems to be one man, one woman, one old man and a Robot. I can see Bill Nighy as the old man (If that's indeed an old man).

You're a Lobo fan, and you think this alien psychopath should be played as a slightly angry human? Something akin to "The Rock", no less?

Good luck with that.

Sounds like they're going out of their way to water Lobo down.
 
The Script is violent. Not Ricky's story violent, but 300 violent, I believe.
