Of course the producer of Dredd would look like this. "I'm not some douchebag in a suit." Clearly.

A very quick glace at a thumbnail lead me to believe for a second that it was Jared Leto.

He produced both Dredd and The Grey. He's okay in my book.

Yeah - the dude certainly dresses like a Dredd extra, but I've enjoyed everything he's been involved with that I've seen. His bootleg marvel shorts (Punisher - Laundry Day and Venom - Truth In Journalism) left me wanting more.

I didn't realize it was the same dude - the Laundry Day short was everything I'd wanted from a Punisher film. This is still my fallback, "nothing is on but I want something on in the background" movie.

Punisher: War Zone is loving amazing. All of that over-the-top, teenage-testorone-fueled "gritty brutality" that permeates the concept of The Punisher is captured beautifully in this film. If the opening scene of the movie doesn't sell you on the film, I don't know what to say...

Punisher is kind of a dumb comic, so War Zone being a dumb action movie is pretty fitting. And I mean that as a person that actually likes The Punisher character and War Zone.

The problem i had with Punisher War Zone was that it was really boring and the action sucked and the villains were awful (it was a really bad movie)

Ennis is so goddamn good at coming up with really hateable villains its unfair. Whatever flaws he has as a writer, his villains are always amazing. I like that with "The Boys," he went in the opposite direction, and wrote a cold, distant villain instead. Its his real talent.

I wish there was a good Punisher MAX adaptation, but at the same time I'm pretty okay with War Zone the way it is. It feels like a spiritual predecessor to Hobo with a Shotgun.

Huff puff someone talking about The Boys in hereTerror Sweat posted:Superheroes are dumb and fake and spend all their time loving each other. I mean it's not like it's also a comic about hate and revenge and how they're terrible things that will drag you under and good people getting caught up in awful horrible things and trying their best to survive without being like the people they hate and how the MIC is bullshit and the comics industry is loving trash. There's actually a ton of stuff going on in that book but, HUNDU THE BEAST GOD posted:It is, halfway. Alhazred posted:Especially Slavers, maybe because Ennis got genuinely angry when researched for the story. I think it was Sims who said that Ennis made his run work because he realized that Frank is basically a blank void of characterization and the way to make the comic work is to build up his opponents as truly awful pieces of poo poo so that when a literal violent sociopath murders them you'll still cheer for him. And then he wrote an arc where the villain is a white slavery ring and one man gets disemboweled while alive and another man gets burned alive and a tape of that gets sent back to their bosses as a warning and I'm entirely unsurprised that Ennis was actually angry while writing it.

Literally The Worst posted:It is absolutely the most Garth Ennis book imaginable. It's got so many things I love but then the next page will invariably be a poop/dick joke and I'm like goddammit Garth. I used to say the quintessential Ennis book would be titled Perverted Superhero War Stories. Then he did exactly that in The Boys, and I was justified. The Boys suffers in the same way as Preacher in that it's a fantastic 24-36 issue story padded out to more than twice that with weird (mostly sexual) poo poo. If Ennis had stuck to the point, both books would be better.

Nah, Preacher's problem was that the main plot was angry gently caress YOU DAD poo poo and the book suffered any time he went back to that. The Boys' problem was he didn't know when to quit being a gross dude making gross jokes, and the best parts were, much like Preacher, the parts where they deal with things that aren't quite part of the main plot.
