The best Punisher movie starred Dolph Lundgren.

Current Marvel would probably prefer he not exist given that he's maybe the least leftist-friendly character in their lineup.

Let me tell you a secret about Punisher, one I had to find out from a marketing executive: he's actually one of the best-selling comic characters in history. His merchandise outsells Batman, Superman and Spider-Man by at least a 3:1 ratio. Apparently this is like some kind of huge embarrassment to Marvel, especially as their staff have gotten ever more radical leftist progressive, because the character is effectively a conservative wet dream but they're quietly making far too much money from him to change the tone of the comic drastically or pull his merchandising.

The fuck? No it wasn't. And that was Fox anyway.

Talking about the comics. Also this isn't a good example seeing as he was effectively the villain in Daredevil. You could tell they'd tried to make him as unsympathetic as possible.

Only reason he's getting his own series is money.

Really? I thought he was just showing up in the defenders.
But if anyone wants a good punisher movie just watch the deathwish movies and pretend Bronson is playing an old frank castle.

Different guy here. I don't know worldwide sales figures or revenue, but tons of stuff has the punisher logo on it. If you counted, you'd probably see more of his logo on a daily basis than anyone else's.

Fuck off back to Lebbit or /co/ anytime. Sorry if you don't like it but it is apparently true. Just look up the aftermarket prices for Punisher toys if you don't believe me, there's six-inch action figures trading hands on Ebay for up to $500 a piece.

War Zone was a shit movie with a great Frank. Stevenson was wasted on it.

Did you not see the graveyard scene and all the other scenes with him mentioning his war past and family memories.

>they'd tried to make him as unsympathetic as possible.
What? Did you miss how much time they spent of finding out his origin? Establishing that he's a war hero, that his family was murdered in front of him, that its all a setup and he's seeking revenge?
They did a pretty good job of making a derranged mass shooter a pretty relatable guy. I think thats why its almost unanimously agreed that the punnisher was the best part of daredevil season 2.

it was identical to the comic book. a flawless adaptation.

Isn't there a Punisher show in planning?

You cant make a rated PG punisher movie, and disney isn't exactly known for ultra-violence.

wut
did you watch the same show? They went out of their way to make him sympathetic, including adding brain damage.

I hate Jon Bernthal's stupid fucking face so much. Can't even enjoy this shit because of him.

I'm still mad. They spent the whole season making it extremely clear that F

>"--so that we can have a doctor come in and explain to the audience how murders people because he has a fictional SUPER-PTSD! Nobody'll get offended because we made the condition up!"

What the fuck has to be going on in your writer's room for that to happen.

>Writer and director Joss Whedon has been critical of the character, referring to the Punisher as "a coward" in an issue of Wizard,[75] and stating in an interview with Jeff Jensen of Entertainment Weekly,

>"One of the things I like about the X-Men is they're not killing people. I miss the idea of... heroes who stop that kind of thing from happening. Here's why I'm not running Marvel: If I was, I would kill the Punisher. I don't believe in what he does. The Punisher just shoots up places. And if you're telling me he's never hit an innocent, then I'm telling you, that's fascist crap".[76]

Yes, it's going to be connected with the other Marvel Netflix series. So it won't be a part of the MCU but considering the Marvel Netflix shows are a lot darker than the MCU this could be a very good thing.

People who want a Punisher film or pretend like he's the coolest ever, don't know anything about him other than he shoots people.

what if they made a film where it was the early 80s cocaine-years Punisher written by a genuine cokehead? it would basically be Crank but he'd be fighting Nicaraguans, right?
>>
>>85704006
None of that makes him sympathetic though. The opposite, in fact - it delegitimises his character by portraying him as insane.

One of the best aspects of the old 80's comics is that he's presented as being completely rational and calculating to a fault as opposed to trying to justify his actions via reduced culpability. It just was what it was.

In that issue? To create a diversion so he could sneak someone out of the hotel IIRC. The guy he gave the ol' spicy earhole was part of a local drug ring.

All three, Dolph Lundgren, Thomas Jane, and Ray Stevenson, were great Punisher movies.

A Punisher movie filled with plot holes and poor directing?
