Heard something on the radio yesterday about there may be a sequal to Leon on the cards. Of course it will be called Matilda but the exciting news is that Bruce Willis or Hugh Jackman may play the villian. I liked Leon and am looking forward to see if a sequal could deliver the goods.

leon was a cool movie!

with NP in the lead again?

who?

Natalie Portman. I don't want it to happen. Leon is one of my favourite films ever and they could never match it. Luc Besson hasn't made a decent film since then and having Bruce Willis in it is a bad idea.

yea leon is cool tho

Did they call it "Leon" in Europe? If I'm thinking of the same movie, are you talking about "The Professional"?

it was called Leon in Norway

It was changed to "The Professional" in America.

it was also called leon in belgium and france

it was Leon in every country, accept the US, fire

read KJ's post

he ain't saying what u are saying
he said it was changed to blablabla in america
he never said that was the only country where they changed ot

leon in sierra leone to? haha

I wish Gary O., was still in the movie.

lol okie why not

Leon? Why the hell did they call it Leon.

cause Lionell sounded to wuss

zzz

Because it was the main characters name and that was the name of the film.

It was changed to "The Professional" for American audiences because the studio were scared that Americans would think it was a French foreign language film and wouldn't go see it.

Leon IS the name of the film.

If a sequel is made then we'll get "Mathilda", while America will probably get "The Professional 2".

.

That's the truth.

It sounds rediculous but the studio thought "mmm....French director, French star, French title. It's too French". And gave it a different name.

LOL that's bad tho

Thats just plain stupid.

idd

Well, movie titles are often 'dumbed down' for americans, they just never know about it

hahahaha .. dumbed down eh? .. like what?

huh?? well whatever android

what are you confused about fire? androids post was a clear and simple one.

just think it ain't polite that's all

? its basically what a lot of people has said right here in this thread

i never saw leon.

You must rent it Backfire, it kewl.

The dumbing down thing works both ways people, Encino Man was changed to California Man just in case us stupid Euro's didn't understand the film title.

yea whatever the title doesn't really make me wanna go see a movie, the trailer usualy does the trick
