SCANDAL

[CON JOB]

Looks like Hellblazer film will feature constantine as
a native new yorker.

(NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

Will be filmed by the guy who did "The Cage" (gash)
And writen by the guy who did the glimmer man
.....THE GLIMMER MAN>>A STEAPHEN SEGAL MOVIE AARRGGHH
(gash)

Constantine will be helped by a female cop....a buddy buddy movie in other words. (Lethal Weapon with magic)(NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

And special effects (/me shakes his head)
They've also replaced his "Lung cancer" with a brain tumour as they think the "lung cancer" is a little too touchy....WHY?

I will rip out the intestines of the producers if they
screw this one up.
I will never go to the bloody cinema again.
I mean it.

John Constantine..AMERICAN...He's as English as James bloody Bond.
(/me starts to cry)

I would have thought someone who has actually directed
a dark movie would have been sutable for this, not some
b list hollywood director.

Hellblazer is as sick as some stuff gets and walks a VERY fine line in regards to morality.....not a wide appeal to a lot of people.
Thats just gonna be thrown out the window once they
find out the "key demographic" of the fans is a lot less
than the total audience figures.

Who gives a toss about the fans..or contunuity onto the screen............I DO

David Fincher would have been wildly more appropriate
or David lynch, or the director of the millenium series
on TV, or the people who did dark city.


I would prefer this movie if it was a cheap art house movie rather than the steaming pile of hollywoodisms it looks as if its gonna be.

I HATE
I HATE
I HATE

HOLLYWOOD FILM CONVERSIONS.....LOOK AT JUDGE DREDD FOR GODS SAKE.

As far as i know its rolling into production in march
and i have not seen ONE person remotly attached to the production who have EVER had anything to do with the
comic.....EVER.

I know DC wouldnt release the rights for the movie untill they were satisfied the production would be a good one.

They've sold out.....betrayed us.
I would be useing far stronger language but I'd get in trouble. So these smiles will have to do.

:mad:
:furious:
:(
:dead:
:cry:
:angry:

alex "from the director of the crow" poyas was responsible for dark city.

[CON JOB]

well......I've talked to the actual guy who is writing
the script and theres no way the producers will cast
and Englishman in the role.

Quote: the only thing English actors are any good at are
playing bad guys.

Mmmmmm and JC's a real angel aint he.



I officialy give up my motivation and bury it in the back yard.

1. John Constantine is an evil *******. He is NOT a hero, he is just (usually) the lesser of evils. He will never appeal to a mass audience.

2. Why exactly does a Hellblazer movie need large budget special effects and glossy Hollywood production values? Hellblazer is about darkness, horror and, most important, the corrupt underbelly of England. It should be shot guerilla-style on London's rain-soaked streets.

3. The need to make Hellblazer less offensive (eg. the no smoking policy) - WTF!? It's HORROR FFS!!! If you don't offend someone with a horror (film, book or comic) you're seriously on the wrong f#cking track!! :(

All in all, this film sounds like the sum of all my fears (and I thought they couldn't do a character assassination worse than the Judge Dredd movie)
