Even with casting Megan Fox in the film, Jonah Hex looked to have a lot of potential. Then we saw the first trailer and all anticipation went out the window.
Now long after the film has tucked its tail from the theaters, Josh Brolin is coming forward with some advice that might help the DVD release next month.
“We had an original intention and that got away from us a little bit,” he explained. “Everybody did do their best to try and create the best movie with what we had, but I think it got so derailed at a certain point that the assemblage of what we could use was so disconnected to what our original intention was that it just got mixed up.”
He continued: “That’s what I told the marketing people at Warner Bros. I said, ‘I can’t lie about this, so I have to look for a truism that I can go with. I do think that if you go in there kind of like with ‘Piranha 3-D’ — when you go to see that movie you go, ‘This is ridiculous and this is fun’ — so if you went into ‘Jonah Hex’ with that, I think you had a good time.”
So Brolin is offering a too little too late word of advice that if you go into the movie expecting it to be sensationalism trash, you will like it?
That’s a little weak and sounds like squirming. After the $47million film raked in $10million.
I just wonder what this might have been like if Neveldine and Taylor’s original vision was used and didn’t “get away from them”
