Action-Adventure JOHN CENA to kick ass and chew bubble-gum in DUKE NUKEM

why i mentioned the last action hero is because of the way they make fun of the action genre...
there are other movies who do it better but it is schwarzenegger...the main influence for duke.
and that hamlet scene was how i really thought duke nukem should be...stupid one liner, lighting up the cigar and blowing ***** up.

with movies like dredd 3d, deadpool and kung fury getting a feature length film, a duke nukem movie will have a good paved way and its a good time now to succeed.

i saw others debating about it on youtube thinking he could be outdated and learn a lesson about being more ''polite''...i say f that`!!!!

no lessons and no evolving character arch!!!

as an example i chose dredd 3d because its a movie where a guy goes inside a skyscraper and kills everyone, end of story.

aliens attack, kidnapp chicks and duke saves the day. the end

just make the humor clever and not too childish or just crude.
a stuborn general, chicks in need, cool ways of killing aliens. driving a harley or a monster truck, flying a spaceship...

just no stupid sidekick like in stallones dredd!!!....if they do so, i'll fly over to hollywood and rip those writers heads off :-)

...some good jabs at the genre. not too much on the nose. and very, very action packed.
i mean really amping up the game in terms of stunts and camera work.
it has to look cool even if the story is paper thin.
this is the right thing for michael bay studios...style over substance and if they are a bit careful with the jokes they'll have a hit
This guy gets it. If the film happens, let's hope they get it too.

Also, maybe the character arc of the film is that there's no character arc.
 
ha thanks...yes even better....they implement this maybe and everyone thinks. oh no here we go typical hollywood character development but no, they just screw with it the entire time :-)
 
Ahem, he was the general in Kong: Skull Island, thank you very much. *adjusts nerd glases* :o
 
I wonder what this guy will look like on the big screen?



Am doing I feel they'll do the s**t down your neck scene. I mean that's iconic Duke. I wonder if they can chuck in the "I don't have time to play with myself" line too?

I'd definitely want this to be a meta parody of action movies and video game movies. the whole him being outdated theme could be the recurring humor of the film. Gags where he is about to achieve some sort of character moment\growth and he does the opposite would also have me on the floor.

yeah i just hope they dont do it exactly like deadpool when he shot francis after the speech...it shouldnt be so much on the nose and he commenting on situations but just be very stuborn. like arnold in comando...more action and less talking....for example...a shortened version of the deadpool scene. someone says please dont, you are better than this boom alredy shot him without a word.
ps thanks silvermoth

We all know the fate of video games based movies. They suck. I doubt this will be different.
 
Never said it would. But I'm not writing this movie off until I at least see some piece of footage.
 
a cool promoshot of cena as duke as soon as possible...no further news so far?...i hope they dont take 12 years to make that movie...
duke nukem 3d was my first game i bought myself for pc...this plus rise of the triad. i saw the cover art and new this had everything i wanted from a shooter.
 
I dont know if it's just me or if it's the camera angle or what but everytime I watch a John Cena movie I cant quite manage to ever see him........................................................:oldrazz:
 
I hope if they do do the whole fish out of water thing they don't go for the obvious cliched joke about the tofu loving beta male yada yada. They could do something on that but hopefully in a more clever way

Two words for you. Tomb. Raider.
 
no....no origin ar fish out of retirement story around him....he's just duke. like in a western....just the dude with the gun...no explanation..

he's in a bar, table dance, all smooth, in the desert, near vegas. aliens attack. he saves some people and a chick ...drives with her to a police station where aliens transform all the cops into pigs. he fights them off. the chick gets kidnapped. the army comes over. says they take it from here. duke says screw that. holds a gun to the generals head and demands a cradle full of weapons. drives to the next airbase. throughout you see spaceships shooting and mayhem around him. he gets to a plane and in flight gets shot. activates the ejection seat and shoots holes in a passing spaceship to weaken the metal and bursts through it. takes over the spaceship and flies towards the mothership, kills all the aliens and rescues the babes.
add cool oneliners, explosions and alot of action scenes him kicking and shooting and you have 1,5 hours of pure fun
 
John Cena has more or less gone Hollywood...similar to Dwayne The Rock Johnson and Dave Bautista so why shouldn't Cena stay in Hollywood? I mean it has more or less done wonders for him and Cena isn't getting any younger especially in WWE. Cena has more or less proven that he is getting better being an actor.
 
I wonder if they will give Duke someone to humanise him like negasonic teenage warhead or x23? Like, do we even know if Duke has a family?

I would pay good money for mama nukem. Even if it was Cena in a dress

a silly flashback of his mother him just standing in the kitchen in a dress brilliant...now i wanna see this too

have you seen dobermann? where a gun lands in the baby cradle and the baby smiles?
 
I've never seen Dobermann but I definitely want to see cena as Ma Nukem now.

Hey they should make this a shared universe and have hints that connect it with doom, quake, hexxan, Wolfenstein, shadow warrior and dare I say it, commander keen?
