Shane Black to Direct The Destroyer

[Necrosis Boy]

I liked the "original" movie very much.

Doubtful. He never did Death Note. Doc Savage has been kicked around for like 10 years.

So what if he never did Death Note? He was attached to that pre-IM3. He can be a lot more selective now that he has more leverage to get projects off the ground.

He's been reading Doc Savage since he was about 8, it's a passion project for him, so I don't think he'll move on from it.
"I’ve read those series for 43 years and always wanted to figure out how to crack it.”

Jon Bernthal would make a great Remo Williams and he does looks a bit like a young Fred Ward too.

 

[Goshdarn Batman]

Seth Rogen as Remo Williams, and Jackie Chan as Chiun

oh god... yeah, let's REALLY **** it up even worse than it'll probably end up being yet again...

I could buy into THAT...

oh HELL yeah... I think you've got it... I'll take Bernthal and Cary ANYTIME over that idiot, Seth Rogen and Chan... I STILL haven't forgiven Rogen for ****ing up the Green Hornet...

The Green Hornet could have been awesome... I wonder why and how Seth Rogen got the role.

I guess it's a case of 'it's not who ya know, it's who ya... '

well, you know the rest...

and the Hornet COULD have been SO awesome if it wasn't done as a comedy, AT ALL, and the way it SHOULD have been done...

 

[Goshdarn Batman]

well, you know the rest...

It's the same thing with the Lone Ranger. That movie made me so depressed and angry...Someone should drag the director, Johnny Depp and Armie Hammer through a mountain of horse manure.

I HATE it when characters from past successful dramas are turned into comedies or over-humorize a character as a vehicle for some of these actors who are totally unsuitable to the characters they are portraying and cause it to wind up being forgotten again for years...

Armie Hammer as the new Illya Kuryakin in the upcoming Man From UNCLE movie scares me... I have trepidations about Henry Cavill as Napoleon Solo, as well...

Jon Bernthal as Remo Williams and Cary Hiroyuki Tagawa as Chiun

Basically the two actors I want to see in Shane Black's current resurgence are Jon Bernthal and Frank Grillo.

 

[Octoberist]

I've never seen REMO WILLIAMS but for some odd reason, I never would've thought it was this zany comic booky/James Bondy type of a series. I thought it was more like Death Wish or something.

 

[DarkSovereignty]

Jon Bernthal as Remo Williams and Cary Hiroyuki Tagawa as Chiun

Reverse them, it wouldn't be Remo Williams without yellow face

 

[Slushy]

 

[DarkSovereignty]

Ahem, that last one is technically called "DesastroyAH."

 

[Slushy]

Close enough.
