Well with the ghost rider movie it felt like they tried to make it too much like the spider-man movies and market more towards the younger generation and same deal with the first AVP.

If Jigsaw is the bad guy in the movie and there is a Punisher 2 video game, who would be the last boss in the video game, considering Jigsaw was the last boss in the first game?

Not really.
Not really. People (directors, actors, writers) walk away from projects all the time- it happens Far more than not. You just don't hear about it unless you follow all movies as closely as you do Superhero flic's. And one thing is for sure, the reasons the studios and actors give are usually garbage... spin, all designed to make them look good and the other side look like the bad-guy. 99% of the time it is money, and don't be fooled.
The new Puhinsher has a chance. I think the studio learned a lesson and will allow this movie to go darker, and ditch the goofy side characters like Franks neighbors (and spare me the "but they came straight from Enis's comics!" It just didn't work on film).
I think Tom Jane made a good Punisher- not perfect- but good, but he just couldn't overcome the awful choices of 1) Travolta, and 2) the setting. There should NEVER be a palm tree or a sunny beach in a Punisher movie. Ever.
Actually, you want the perfect look, feel, mood, for a Punisher movie? Go see the movie No Country for Old Men.
Bone...
Chilling.
Wayne Knight as Microchip? I wonder if he's going to survive the film, because there would be cheering if he gets blown away.
Ray Stevenson looks good as Frank. Thankfully he will be the star and not John Travolta(who took up most of the poster space last time.)

i agree. The Ghost rider movie felt like a buffy the vampire slayer episode. The first AvP, i believe avoided a complete teenage appeal because of Anderson. In retrospect, i think he really did a good job with what he was given. Even though the final product left much to be desired. AvP 2 was essentially aliens and predator at dawsons creek.
Thankfully, the dark knight, The incredible Hulk and hellboy 2 seem to be avoiding that avenue. Hopefully, the final movies turn out to be half as serious, dark and witty as the trailers make them appear.
As for the Punisher 2. I can't say that im excited for the movie, especially with the absence of jane, but it seems like fuking up a punisher movie would be a hard thing to do. The Punisher is a vigilante out for revenge. It is the oldest story ever told. Focus on the violence and resolve of the punisher's character and you should be golden, but i guess studio's have a tendency to fuk a good thing up huh
