The Green Hornet Troubles? Maybe Not

well imagine that. the movie is having problems...did anyone not see this coming?

well, they're already filming, so of course they would back-pedal and say its fine. they're already going to have to finish it, so they might as well talk it up...even if it is a disaster.

just look at everything involved with this movie and tell me it sounds like a recipe for success, lol

I don't really know much about the Green Hornet (thank god!) So all these issues people are having with it are not going to ruin the movie for me! lol

W T F....!!! So what if Rogen does not fit in ? I'm going to go watch the film ONLY for Christoph Waltz. The man's a genius

Well if the Execs like it lets give it a shot I am not really a Green Hornet fan but I might check it out.

We'll see.

People - OF COURSE the EMPLOYEES of Sony are officially going to say the movie is all sunshine and puppies! Do you think the executives at ENRON told the truth about the [MANURE]-sandwich they sold the public, even though they KNEW the real deal? This movie will BLOW!!!!!!

lyk a cane?

lyk daredevil? 8|

Nope. Struggled through the first 2 and a bit lines of the haiku just about, but after that you just lost me.

Can I suggest English? Might help.

Why is that leprechaun holding a bike lock to the sky? Maybe its how he finds weed.

typing is hard. Specially when your keyboard is missing vowels.

REALLY?? ARE YOU SERIOUS?? Seth Rogen is not a believable Superhero. I mean look at this......

"It's Green Hornet. It's SUPPOSED to be campy."

Gston - NO, NO, NO (oh HELL NO!)! It's NOT supposed to be campy! The entire history of GH has ALWAYS had a serious tone to it (do your homework and check it out). Hell, even the 60's show wasn't campy (though it was from the producers of Adam West's POS 'Batman')! The Green Hornet was, is, and always will be SERIOUS material and should be treated as such!

Wolverinesfury - Not ALL GH fans are grandparents and are still 'with us'! If the movie sucks, it's because because of one reason only - Rogen BLOWS!

Flames - Butler can do both comedy AND action because he understands comedic timing AND he looks the part of an action hero! Rogen can only rely on sophomoric phyiscal humor ("Gee, look at me! I'm the stupid ass with the IQ of tepid water!") and will NEVER pass for an action hero! Hell, even Hellen Keller could be able to tell that Seth Rogen is a dork!

Listen guys i wasnt that happy when i found out Rogen was going to be doing this. TBH i wasnt really that up to date on the whole GH story but i knew enough to be a little bit worried that Rogen was going to be playing lead. But one thing that does keep me interested is that fact that Rogen can actually do action. Has anyone seen "Observe and Report"? There is a scene in the film where Rogen is fighting about 6-7 bad guys at one time and to be very honest i was very surprised that he did it so well especially when he was carrying all that weight. There are other scenes in the film as well where he fights quite well also. As someone else mentioned Pineapple express contained a good lot of fight scenes aswell.
I think the main issue is here is that we know (or at least me and a couple others)that Rogen can do action. But can he do SUPERHERO?? I think we should reserve judgement till its finished or at least see a trailer then praise/slate it. Rogens done a lot of good work recently as a writer and actor and i think he deserves a shot without everyone getting on his back because of false statements and conjecture.
Listen, if the film flops then he's the one thats gonna have a hard time getting another gig. He should know that being in hollywood and if its that terrible whilst filming it, he would know to pull out.(Thats what she said......) Had to be done!

Sony is backing down because it doesn't want to lose millions in dollars it invested in the movie. I bet the first report is right and that report got leaked to the web and they are backing down cause they know this movie was gonna suck big time. It will be the worst comic movie ever. Seth Rogan can't actin action movies. This will be worse then Adam West as Batman. At least that was so bad and campy it was funny.

This movie won't break even at the box office and will be out on dvd in 2 months after its released.

And the gun in the pic looks like a piece of plmbing pipestuck to a metal handle. I think I could find a better prop at a garage sale !!!!

I usually give people a shot at a new gig. But this time, I think they lost out on this one. Maybe, well we shall see.

Seth Rogan just seems wrong as the Green Hornet to me.The photo looks pathetic!If they wanted to go campy Vince Vaughn would have been a better choice for the Green Hornet and Tony Jaa as Kato.Vaughn's comedic skills paired with Jaa's smoking martial arts talents would have been a killer combination.The term "straight to DVD" comes to mind when I look at those dorks in the Green Hornet garb! Sucks bigtime!!!

Seth Rogan plays the same character in each film he has done, I understand the need for him to step out of typecasting and hope that this film is going to be a least average; yet it was announced by Sony that the new release date is January 14 2011 so they can make it in 3D so any hope of it being good is out the window. The only reason to make it in 3d in such a small amount of time is to make money back. I thought that Stephen Chow wanted a comedy of GH and dropped out because it wasn't going to go in that direction. Yet all I've seen are stills and they have been really just of GH and Kato, no villain or other characters.
