We Spot a Film We had to Share With You
April 25, 2013 by dracs
Today Lloyd came across a trailer for a film which we thought might just be to the taste of some of you guys, as well as having the potential for a cool game setting. A cop film with a serious twist; R.I.P.D. Rest In Peace Department.
Ryan Reynolds and Jeff Bridges play undead police men, working for the Rest In Peace Department, a supernatural law enforcement agency which protects the world of the living from the dead who escape judgement.
So it essentially seems like MIB meets Constantine.
The film is based upon the comic of the same name by Peter Lenkov and published by Dark Horse. I have a certain love for the less main stream comics, such as Hellboy, Chew etc. So whenever I hear of one becoming a film I get really excited. The setting itself looks very interesting and could make for a cool RPG. Sort of like the World of Darkness games, only by the look of it with a fair side more combat.
It is good to see actors like Jeff Bridges and Ryan Reynolds being cast in this. Both are good actors who should do the roles justice. Let's just hope this doesn't end up like Reynolds' last foray into comic films.
My boys love the look of this film
I am so sold on this!
So they crossed Ghostbusters with Men In Black? That might work.
I’m just hoping it’s not another Drive Angry
Yep that’ll do nicely 🙂
very reminiscent of Men in black but i like it 🙂
Yup, I’ll be watching this film for certain. 😀
So Universal Pictures is jumping on the Kickstarter wagon now? 😛
Pfft the small guys have got no chance now then, hehe.
Seems an interesting new idea. I guess it is a cross between Ghost and MiB.
I hope those two spooning whilst slinging some clay is edited out, or I may not want to see this film 🙁
ok its on the must see list
Seen it, but prefer the new THOR 2 trailer 🙂
pfft got to be Star Trek: Into Darkness. Thor 2 and Captain America 2 are just going to be set ups for Avengers 2 just like their originals.
I loved the comic, so I love those news.
I’ve christened this ‘Men in Wak’. Ryan Reynolds? No thank u. The lad couldnt act his way out of a paper bag. The only saving grace is Jeff Bridges.
Did you not see the hot blonde? Not many women look hot whilst being rammed by a bus!! 😛 hehe
Watch him in Buried.
looks good, I think i’ll give this a watch
Suprises me that BOW would think to share this MIB rip off twoddle but not bring the upcoming Guillermo del Torro movie PACIFIC RIM to their subscribers attention.. Whats it about i hear you ask…… ONLY TITAN SIZED GIANT FIGHTING ROBOTS FACING OFF AGAINST GODZILLA SIZED KAIJU MONSTERS!!!!
Careful now! Twoddle is a very strong word! 😉
But now you come to mention it….
“PACIFIC RIM”? I don’t think that BoW are allowed to broadcast foreign films like that! 😛 hehe
Pacific Rim better not have tentacle sex as the name suggests 😛
