Tim Bradstreet Posted August 1, 2009 Report Share Posted August 1, 2009 I agree with Mike, I don't think it will go down that original road. And I may be taking certain things to task early on here, shit, I just gotta be honest. It's only my opinion, which I'm sure wouldn't amount to doodly squat to the power folks at WB . . . But I am doing what I can to support this film for Jimmy Palmiotti and Justin Gray's sake. Somehow I think I'd be liking the state of things better if they were calling the shots Like I said, I WANT it to be good. The jury is still out. - TB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnpweber Posted August 1, 2009 Report Share Posted August 1, 2009 Don't get me wrong, I want it to be good too. I'd feel bad for Jimmy and Justin is it's not. They've taken the charcter and brought new life to him the same way Ennis did for The Punisher for a new generation of readers. I can overlook a lot of things that might not go as some would wish, but when it comes to the story, like I said, look at the writers' credits. I'm still holding out for this one, I don't want to jump into a group yet, but it gets me kind of worried. That said, there have been many writers who have pulled a 180 and surprised the hell out of me. Fingers crossed for this one as well.

FADoss Posted August 1, 2009 Report Share Posted August 1, 2009 Doss will be the corpse hanging from the tree in the opening. He would have one line . . . " Wa . . . water". Then a crow picks out his left eye. Jonah spits at the ground under the fella's feet, says . . . "I ain't got no agua for the dead", walks on (no horse), but when he tops the rise in the burning noon day sun he turns and puts a bullet in the guy's head to send him home. Great part for Fred. And I'll get him some more work as other corpses here and there DAMN YOU BRADSTREET! No respect whatsoever... But still...that's like $900 in my pocket and a credit. I'm such a whore.

Mike V Posted September 3, 2009 Report Share Posted September 3, 2009 I know most of you will probably think this is a horrible, but I think it is fucking awesome. Mastodon is doing the score. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, it's the best news I've heard yet about this movie...I just downloaded "Oblivion" last night. I dig that song, and really like Mastodon.

Guest AdminGuyX Posted September 4, 2009 Report Share Posted September 4, 2009 Sure. Why not. Might as well have a heavy metal band score the film. At this point they might as well have cars, airplanes, robots and cybernetic flying monkeys in it too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mastodon isn't you're typical heavy metal band though, they're a great interesting band with a lot of layers and melody to the music.

Yeah, if nothing else, I'll end up buying the sound track for this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kdedu Posted October 26, 2009 Report Share Posted October 26, 2009 Ran into this while researching the news that Henry Rollins will be working w/ the Flaming Lips on their version of Dark Side of the Moon. Yes, random, I know... Mastodon talks about recording for Jonah Hex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike V Posted October 27, 2009 Report Share Posted October 27, 2009 I can't wait to hear what they've done for the score. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike V Posted November 25, 2009 Report Share Posted November 25, 2009 There's a new picture and synopsis out. Jonah Hex (Josh Brolin) is a scarred drifter and bounty hunter of last resort, a tough and stoic gunslinger who can track down anyone…and anything. Having survived death, Jonah’s violent history is steeped in myth and legend, and has left him with one foot in the natural world and one on the “other side.” His only human connection is with Leila (Megan Fox), whose life in a brothel has left her with scars of her own. But Jonah’s past is about to catch up with him when the U.S. military makes him an offer he can’t refuse: in exchange for his freedom from the warrants on his head, he must track down and stop the dangerous terrorist Quentin Turnbull (John Malkovich). But Turnbull, who is gathering an army and preparing to unleash Hell, is also Jonah’s oldest enemy and will stop at nothing until Jonah is dead. Based on the legendary graphic novel, “Jonah Hex” is an epic adventure thriller about one man’s personal quest for redemption against the vast canvas of the battle between good and evil.

johnpweber Posted November 26, 2009 Report Share Posted November 26, 2009 Shouldn't there be a teaser any time now? I'm really wondering what they have to show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnpweber Posted February 18, 2010 Report Share Posted February 18, 2010 Here's a short interview with Jimmy Palmiotti. Some of the rumors are put to rest and he seems pretty pleased with the film. Tim, if Splatterman gets made, you'll have to do the poster http://www.jonahhexmovie.com/jimmy-palmiotti-interview/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Bradstreet Posted February 19, 2010 Report Share Posted February 19, 2010 Ha! That'd be cool I really like that last pic of Brolin as Hex. I hope it doesn't end up being the only thing I like. - tb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest AdminGuyX Posted February 23, 2010 Report Share Posted February 23, 2010 Yeah, that is a cool shot. I'd really like to see a trailer too, and hear some of the music being written for this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike V Posted February 23, 2010 Report Share Posted February 23, 2010 Yeah, I'd really love to hear some of the score for this. Apparently John Powell is working with Mastodon on it too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brianmcquery Posted March 1, 2010 Report Share Posted March 1, 2010 I know some people who worked on the reshoots for this. Apparently, it's terrible and they spent 3 weeks trying to reshoot half of the movie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SonOfTheDark Posted March 2, 2010 Report Share Posted March 2, 2010 Did they manage it? ^^ Or were the reshoots useless? If they really changed half the movie, it would be very different obviously. The question is if the new material is actually better than the old one... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike V Posted March 2, 2010 Report Share Posted March 2, 2010 I know some people who worked on the reshoots for this. Apparently, it's terrible and they spent 3 weeks trying to reshoot half of the movie. So that's why they brought Francis Lawrence in. If it is shit, at least there will probably be a pretty cool soundtrack to buy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike V Posted March 25, 2010 Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 Well this kinda bums me out. Apparently the score that John Powell and Mastodon were doing for the movie has been axed, and Marco Beltrami has been brought on board to do it now.
