Fox pulls out of Comic-Con

[deathshead2]

Yikes. So basically FOX is saying, "Hitman sucks and we don't want to show it."

Crap, I was actually kinda hoping it would surprise us all.

Well Fox is been getting worse and worse every year, with very few good movies.

You mean how X-men 3 would miraculously come out at over 2 hours long with tidal waves, Phoenix FX, and Angel in costume kicking ass? Despite all earlier reports and screening reviews saying otherwise?

 

[Showtime]

I saw this earlier and was competely shocked.

 

[PWN3R]

Vile yes Olyphant doesn't look the role, totally agree. At the same time he's a good actor. Deadwood anyone?

Hitman is a solid franchise with an interesting enough story for one awesome action movie. I really wish it wasn't being done by FOX.

I agree he's a good actor, totally. But you know, even good actors can be wrong for certain roles.

Once again, most video game movies suck anyway, Hitman's only reinforcing the status quo.

Let him direct Wolverine then.

huh?????....

Boll can't do Wolverine he's filming Far cry right now.

 

[TheVileOne]

Boll can just jump on Wolverine and use footage from Far Cry to fill the rest of it out.

 

[xwolverine2]

im sure he would too...

 

[Gilpesh]

Fox is just saying with this move that, they really no longer care about the fanbase of people that Comic-Con represents.

Of course... everyone knew that after FF and X3...

But now they aren't even pretending.

I've said from the beginning that Hitman was doomed to fail. I don't believe Timothy is right for the part at all. Could the movie surprise us? Sure, any film these days can turn out to be a shocking masterpiece.

However, it doesn't change the fact that the teaser trailer looks and feels nothing like a Hitman game. Anytime someone pointed out this fact they were called whiney fanboys, bitter, and don't understand the "business side of Hollywood".

I was against Vin Diesel playing Agent 47 and I'm strongly against Timothy Olyphant as Agent 47. I'd like to believe I'm wrong and that the movie will be good, but considering the track record of games with loyal followings that have been made into films? Not looking good. Only decent video game film I really liked was Silent Hill.

Guess we should thank Fox for ruining Hitman.

Here's hoping a God of War and Metal Gear are never made. Hollywood would turn them into crap.

 

[Lighthouse]

Wouldn't mind a feature length animated God of War made by the gamemakers.

JVD announcement

'd love to see THATcatfight scene

 

[killingfields]

[xwolverine2]

all i wanted was just for them to confirm len wiseman is directing wolvy

 

[SolidSnakeMGS]

you know... many people DO like AVP

LOL

[killingfields]

meh, i like AVP, probably not the best movie ever, but definitely entertaining.

If Fox really is trying to fast track Wolverine for a summer 2008 release, we should be hearing something shortly regardless... but I don't know about that.

 

[xwolverine2]

..yeah sure.

 

[nocomics]

The movie is going to bomb. The first one was lucky to do as well as it did due to the novelty and interest of the concept.

At least they had the sense not to make another Freddy vs. Jason.

I enjoyed Freddy v. Jason thought it was a very entertaining movie. I actually enjoyed this more so than AvP in some regards..I haven't seen any clips or read much on Avp2 so I cant really say how good/bad its going to be. I guess if u base it off first one it might not be that good,but I will see it anyway.

I spoke too soon. Apparently, Len Wiseman is out and Gavin Hood is in.

Timothy Olyphant is a very good character actor. He will probably be the best thing going for that crappy movie.
