@ RastaZen: Hollywood in general (and soap operas in particular) are making God jealous…because they’ve raised more folks from the dead than a Chicago alderman on Election Night under the late Richard J. Daley, former Mayor/father of the current Mayor, the late Richard M. Daley.

[...] it’s very violent. By now we know how (not) great Watchmen did at the box office; however Wanted (another little-known comic book adapted into a violent movie) was a surprise hit at the box [...]

thanks and yeah that does sound like a pretty good idea. im just used to vin being kinda the hero ya know? (the movies XXX and the video game wheelman are good examples) but then again alot of good movies have the villian as a big tough guy that proves to be way too strong for the heroes at first so vin would definitely fit the bill for that lol
either way would work, as long as wesley n angelina are both in it, if not oh well wesley can still kick some ass

Hey Chris
You sure can bounce back a comment…good for you!
Lets bring Wesley back who helps Angelina regain her temporay mental lapse from the gunshot wound to the head. Wesley, along with Terrance Stamp helps Angelina regain her powers to redirect a bullet. This time Wesley allows Angelina to shoot a bullet at him during her training, which she of course succeeds at redirecting it and ..bam..her memory and confidence is restored. Vin, kills Terrance and both Angelina and Wesley are in chase to track Vin. I still like the idea of Vin turning to good but an action packed movie with Vin going down is a great idea as well.

taylor..
first off
they werent making fun of anything
over the top action flicks are one of the most popular types of movies in history
perfect example: the matrix.
nuff said..asshole
P.S. just because one whiny little baby like you complains about how much he hates these kinda movies doesnt mean the movie sucks it means YOU think it sucks.

i know this is an old thread but im throwing in my two cents for the coffer…

the first movie was horrendous… i hate seeing movies that blatantly make fun of the viewer’s intelligence… the train scene anyone?

sigh… please let this one have some crazy Watchmen-like rights battles and NEVER hit theaters…

yes… i just cursed the wanted franchise…

“Extra…! Extra…! Read all about it… Wanted 2 will sink down the toilet… Duh…
The 2 big hollywood actors in the movie are dead… Even if they use flashbacks it will still suck, cause for one thing theyre still dead… And using flashbacks would mean that there is really no real original story for wanted 2… And about the comic based thing… Dude this movie is based on present technology they cant make the dead people come back to life… Especially when you get killed by a GUNSHOT on the HEAD…”

Dude, I’m not saying that Wanted 2 WON’T sink down the toilet, but it’s got such a good chance. Wanted was merely the intro to an exhaustive comic series. There’s so many things left to tell.

And we don’t NEED Morgan Freeman and Angelina Jolie, just Mcavoy. Besides, people don’t always die from getting shot in the head. It’s possible for a bullet to go in one side and come out the other and the victim will still survive. It’s a slim chance, but it’s possible, besides the fact that this is Fox we’re talking about.

And anyone who says compares Wanted to Jumper should consider retracting their statement. Wanted had the best plot of any over-the-top action film in ages. And it shouldn’t suspend belief nearly as much as people say. With movies, if you can see it happening, it’s happening.

a sequel sounds great!
and i agree with Samdman10
that could be possible. and if it is then great! as much as i though the main character wesley would be great in the sequel i do hope you are right! because i thought fox was great too. well lets keep our hopes up! and also vin does sound like a good villian but maybe it shouldnt just be about angelina and vin wesley should be a big part of it too. but anyways all great ideas!

I like the director for his visual style but I didn’t like his previous movies, Nightwatch and Daywatch which were too long. This one much to my surprise is not very faithful to the comic but managed to catch my attention, I saw it and wow !! I was amazed by the action scenes and well simple plot.

So a sequel I don’t know, unless in the comic there are other adventures for the main character?

Right on Chris, They can easily bring back Angelina, but we need a Villian. I vote for Vin Diesel as the villian who is Terrance Stamps protoge’ turned bad and thought to be killed by Terrance, Vin comes back to kill Terrance and Angelina and Vin go “at it” to make a smashing movie. A good ending would be that Vin repents his ways and finally joins Angelina and the Fraternity.

To Samdman10… Dude that is exactly what I was thinking. The bullet losing momentum only fracture her scull knocking her unconscious. I just hope they bring her back she made the whole movie. It does suck the about Morgan Freeman’s character but after that there is no bringing him back unless they use flash backs but that’s to gimicky. As long as Angelina is back it’s all good.

I really liked wanted, and I hope they make wanted 2. It would be neat if they had Angelina guide and mentor him. She was not corrupted by Morgan Freeman’s character. She could be the guilds secret mentor or something.

no jolie, no sequel, easy!

In the sequel, they need to bring back Angelina Jolie who did not die from the bullet to the head as thought to be. The bullet was not strong enough to kill her and temporarily made her unconscious where Terrance Stamp finds her and nurses’ her back to health. She has memory problems and Terrance helps her regain her memory and he reforms the Fraternity.

I don’t know the comic. I wen tto see Wanted for Jolie. At first I liked it thinking it would be Matrix-like that they would explain how these inpossible thing could happen, like maybe they were in a computer reality. But then I realized they wanted us to actually suspend belief and think these thngs were in the real world and it then became just silly. Not that it was much better, but I’d much rather see a sequel to JUMPER.

Um, you lot are forgetting something!!! The movie was very loosely based on the comic! Sequel = very based on the comic!!! Winner!!! ; )

You gotta be kidding. Just because they made money with that one, they want a sequel? I mean, heck, for the same reason that the superb cult favorite “Equilibrium” didn’t need a sequel, “Wanted” should be left alone. The original ideas of curving the bullet, controlling 400bpm heartbeats to harness the superhuman abilities from the adrenaline surge, etc works well the first time around but we won’t wanna see that recycled.

If there’s a sequel, I bet it’ll feel forced and unoriginal. It’s going straight to video.

I skipped the first one.
Looking forward to doing the same with the sequel.
