The guy got to play the punisher looks gay Thomas Jane was awesome and now its some reject this movies is so going to be a flop but the upside to that is maybe marvel will get it back and reboot it.

I want em to reboot fantastic four soooooo bad. that would be what, 3rd reboot? or at least make a decent threequel. this looks like it is gonna be soo cheezy, but maybe in a good way? I think they should buy their rights back to everything and just reboot all their franchises to tie into the new marvel universe with the upcoming avengers movies and stuff. they could get to a point where all their movies are intertwining and characters are constantly coming and going just like the comics. Can you guys say CIVIL WAR!!!!!!

well i gusse im the only comic fan here. I think it looks good. I like the punisher so i'll go see it. I rather see this than x-men origins: wolverine. And u cain't judge a movie by it's trailer.

I don't know if Ray Stevenson is gonna be able to pull it off,I thought Thomas Jane did an awesome job at frank castle. I can't wait to see jigsaw,seeing Dominique West in that kind of a role is going to be interesting for sure

this tv spot makes it look sooo lame. too bad they cannot show the red band trailer on tv. the movie would bank big time.

2 things......

1. Dude is the best looking Punisher so far, looks like the book. But Thomas Janes did it better.

2. Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz. BORING.

How many Punisher movies are we gonna see? How many re-boots are there gonna be? This has never been a profitable franchise.


Next......

I liked Thomas Jane's Punisher, but i also want to see this one SOOO bad.

Punisher has always been one of my favorite characters.

and i can't believe you guys are forming an opinion about a whole movie from a 31 second TV spot.

how pathetic.

You guys who think Thomas Jane looked more like The Punisher than Ray Stevenson are out of your mind. Thomas Jane didn't look the part at all. He wasn't BAD at it, but the film was poorly written and poorly directed. Not Jane's fault, but it was still pretty poor. Jane is pretty fit and lean, but he's not the right size for the part. I'm not sure if you can see it in this commercial, but Ray Stevenson has a pretty commanding presence.

And for those of you calling Stevenson a "nobody." Just because YOU don't know him because he wasn't in the last Michael Bay explosion fest, doesn't mean he's a nobody. If you want to get hyped up about the actor, go watch the tv series Rome. After watching that, you will see that him taking on large numbers of people on his own is right at home for him, for he does this several times on that show and kicks everyone's ass handily. So seeing him do the same in Punisher could be quite awesome. That's given that the script isn't stupid and Lexi Alexander isn't a hack...

HONESTLY, WHAT MARVEL SHOULD DO NEXT TIME IS GET JASON STATHAM, __THAT GUY CAN PLAY PUNISHER__PHYSICALITY AND THE LOOK OF FRANK CASTLE-YOUVE GUYS SEEN TRANSPORTER, STATHAM CAN PLAY PUNISHER HANDS DOWN..NOW THIS NEW GUY PLAYING PUNISHER,GRANTED, HE LOOKS LIKE THE COMIC BOOK AND THE MOVIE POSTERS ARE I'LL ADMIT PRETTY DEAD ON,THE LOOK IS FAN LOVED,DONT GET ME WRONG. BUT THEN AGAIN I THOUGHT MARVEL WAS GETTING WELL KNOWNS TO PLAY THEIR CHARACTERS, I ..JUST LIKE MOST PEOPLE SAID.."WHO'S THIS GUY?"..I DUNNO,MAYBE MARVELS TRYING TO DO A CHRISTOPHER REEVE THINGY.

Looks good....Liked Thomas Jane but this looks good.

If you look at it from the outside I think the main thing I worry about with any comic book movie is it aimed at the kids (Spider-Man), adults (Blade), or both (Fantastic 4). At least the first Blade movie was exciting so if they aim the adults as their main target I think this movie will be very successful. Not Dark Knight success but definitely better that the Fantastic 4

this looks really mainstream. The punisher needs to be darker, edgier. Look at the success of the new batman films and follow that. It looks like an action movie rather than a dark comicbook remake.

Ray Stevenson played Titus Pulo in Rome, and was amazing
