Yeah I know… The Punisher wasn’t all that good… but you know what? I liked it. What can I tell ya? I can’t explain it, but I had fun watching The Punisher. Enough fun that I actually saw it in theaters twice. Gluten for punishment I guess (hehe… get it? gluten for PUNISHMENT? Get it!?!?! HAHA!! Oh shut up).
We’ve already talked a bunch here on The Movie Blog about the fact that there is going to be a Punisher 2 movie, which I think is great news if they’re committed to improving on the first… and most people seemed to like Thomas Jane as The Punisher even if they didn’t like the movie so much. Well now Jane is talking about the film. The good folks over at Comic Book Movie give us this:
According to series star Thomas Jane, the wheels are in motion for him to slip that trademark skull onto his chest again soon for “The Punisher 2.” “The script comes in a couple of weeks, and it’s going to be darker, bloodier and more unfriendly than the first one,” Jane confirmed.
Well that all sounds good. Does this mean they’re aiming for an “R” rating? If so I think that would make a lot of people happy, including me.
Man, love or hate the movie you’ve got to agree that fight Jane had with Kevin Nash as the Russian was just CRAZY!
