Bloodshot - Straight from the 90's to your big screen

[Devilish Jack o Lantern]

So I don't know how many of you are familiar with the character, so here is a thread on the newest Super hero movie to hit the scenes ! BLOODSHOT ! starring Vin Diesel .

To be fair i'm more familiar so i'm more hopefull. but it is a pg-13 movie about a man who's power is rebuilding himself from getting hurt. so who the fuck knows!

I read alot of comics in the 90s, bloodshot was decent but x-o manowar was way cooler. Valiant even did a decent run of Captain N: the gamemaster that was better than the tv show.

For regeneration characters you need to have hard R violence to exploit the messy ways people can get fucked up during combat. It will probably be mediocre and forgettable.

Yeah I agree about the XO being more cooler than bloodshot . It always had more of an epic feel to it you know . Also I have to add I love quantum and woody now that you got me talking Valiant comics

Vin Diesel as Vin Diesel starring Vin Diesel directed by Vin Diesel in a Vin Diesel production.

Kevin Costner would be proud.

I didn't even realize this was based on a comic book; I thought it was a Universal Soldier remake.

Hopefully this leads to more Valiant movies. Magnus, Robot Fighter would be a great movie.

Quantum and Woody is the sort of funny buddy thing that needs a series rather than a movie. Gotta build up to the comedy.

Let there be a Rob Liefeld cinematic universe.

They made a good choice of giving this a $45 million budget.
They finally learned that Diesel isn't a star and won't make the big money like Johnson and Statham.
That means that even if they make only $150 million worldwide, it's already a success and enough to guarantee a sequel.
That also means that they don't have as much money for effects.
Hopefully, there will be a few polished effect heavy shots and that's it.
I hope it's good, I'm ready for some other comic book companies giving Marvel and DC some competition.

I'm worried because Diesel has negative charisma and needs to have a good supporting cast to work.
Pearce should be good but I don't know any of these other fuckers.

As long as it's like those Asylum mockbusters that take themselves very, very seriously it should be gold. Everyone on screen should act like they're doing the best acting the world has ever seen.

I know nothing of Bloodshot. So is he like if Deadpool was gritty and serious with no 4th wall humor? Because a movie like that could work, but you’d definitely need to go hard R with it.

Yeah from what I remember their Nintendo comics were much better than they had any right to be.

He is Wolverine with guns, yes.

Is it wrong for me to say this came to mind when I heard this?

Welp, Corona Chan fucked it up for me, my whole country is so fucked that people are buying Sanitizers worth 70k

 

[Devilish Jack o Lantern]

I managed to see the movie . Not a bad flick actually ! I had a lot of fun and it moved with really good pacing and well written characters
