Could it have worked?
>>219821559why is he wearing nintendo powergloves
>>219821651Microchip made them for him.
>>219821559I mean, he started as basically a John Rambo pastiche.
>>219821559What the fuck is that gun on his back?!? XD
>80s murrica>some incel wandering around with a loaded rifle or whatever clearly with intent to shoot up the local hall or school etcyou can't just wander freely in yuro nations without being caught by the local mob quicker than that fat brian dennehey guyand they'd just at the most maybe slap you around and take all your shit before sending you on your way
>>219821944It's impossible to tell with the human eye, but OP's image is generated by an AI.
>>219821945
>>219821559Yes
>>219821559Probably not in the mid 70's, the Punisher explodes in popularity in the mid 80's.
>>219821559if you had to do the avengers with actors from the 70s and 80s, who would you choose? In their prime of course.
>>219823143Well yeah I meant in the 80s
>>219821559Only if Stallone wrote and directed it
>>219821559Does anyone else think making The Punisher on the MCU version French could be really popular? Imagine all the frustrated European people who would see Le Punir kill masses of migrants without any government approval. The people need vengeance!
>>219821559Cobra was a better Punisher movie than all three Punisher movies.
Why are you manchildren so obsessed with capeshit
>>219824221punisher doesn't wear a cape, drooling retard
>>219821559Dolph already made it work. For the most part.
>>219823249Carl Weathers as Luke Cage
>>219821559No. It was a more mature time and capeshit was just as awful. See: dolph lundgren version>>219821945>gib gunsNo thanks, Mudasir Sukhdik.

>>219821559Yes. Cobra is a thing.
>>219824434It's not really capeshit though. See >>219824203
>>219824469>Tony Stark - Burt ReynoldsHas Burt ever portrayed anyone highly intelligent or astute?
>>219824203Peppermint was a better Punisher film. She lived in a van filled with weapons.
>>219824808Burt Reynolds had a temper tantrum against Mark Summers and I will hashtag NEVER forget

>>219821559When I was a kid, I got this Marvel newsletter. There were talks about a Punisher television show back in 1994. Made by the creators of Hunter. A show in the vein of New York Undercover and Nasty Boys back in the 90’s could have worked. Now they are just scared of having him go after criminals. Black and Mexican gangs I can understand, but why not bikers, Irish and Italian mob families?
>>219821559>long hair punisherThis would only work if he were on the run from other heroes trying to stop him from killing
>>219824871I thought that was an American gang thing.
>>219824951I got a soft spot for this run. It was the first Punisher comic I ever got.
>>219824203Demolition Man was a better Judge Dredd than the 90s Judge Dredd.
>>219824294I think with Sly it would have worked better
>>219824938>but why not bikers, Irish and Italian mob families?that's who he goes after in the Netflix show mostly
>>219824469>Robert Redfordkino list

>>219825106Nu Dredd was dogshit. Fuck Karl Urban. Insufferable garbage actor.

>>219821944AI-15
>>219821559>we live in a society!
>>219827376Ok stallone. Time for your nap
>>219824777The AR-15 slaps so much ass. Thank you, John Stone
>>219821559OP, it would have been perfect casting in the 80's, same as Michael J Fox as Peter Parker!!!FACT!!!
>>219825065it’s cool that the punisher exists to say “yeah, a hero can have a gun”
>>219830025Punisher is an anti-hero
>>219821559>Midget punisherAnon...
he was kind of a retard>goes after the Yakuza>goes after the Italian mob>goes after a car dealership owner >ignores the one people responsible for the world's misery
>>219830755>ignores the one people responsible for the world's miseryamericans?
>>219830845No, Jews.
I want an established Punisher. A Punisher that has already killed his families killers and has been working as The Punisher for years. Now a global boogeyman that everyone knows and everyone fears.Played by someone that can actually pull off being scary. Dolph Lundgren was pretty great casting to be honest. While that new Punisher, I forget his name, the manlet Jew is really shit.No emotional bullshit. Just a violent and gory action movie. Basically John Wick but less gay.
Yes. Stallone has charisma unlike Bernthal.
>>219821559Yes, modern Stallone would have made it work.
>>219830755one man without superpowers can only do so much
>>219821559Rambo 4 is fairly similar to a Punisher who goes out of retirement to wreak some havoc
>>219824469>Winter SoldierHe wasn't created until the 00s. Before that Bucky was just his dead sidekick from WWII.
>>219821559notrillions of money wasted on this btw
>>219821559There was a window where you could've made a movie like the punisher the way it was supposed to be. Obviously that time has passed. I would like to have seen Stallone's take on the character though. First Blood had to have been a big influence on the comic character especially early on.
>>219831955at this point is there any difference between them?
>>219830599What are you getting at?
>>219832506>Obviously that time has passed.What do you think caused that?
>>219821559No
>>219821559I bet it would have been almost as good as Judge Dredd, although to make sure there'd need to be a "sassy sidekick" role written for Rob Schneider.
>>219825995That particular idea had never so much as occurred to me before now but I bet he'd make a strong fist of it.
>>219830755
>>219832384That is straight from Rob Liefeld. A human artist.
>>219833967maybe Micro
>>219821559NO because Rocky fights to survive. He does not fight to feed his retarded nutjob fetish for violence profiting from the suffering of innocent
>>219825106Idk. I love both those movies for entirely different reasons.
>>219824349Mr. T as Luke Cage. End of discussion.
>>219821559They couldn't even generate the Twin Towers?
>>219826381>Tony Stark - Ben Kingsley>Thor - Rutger Hauer
>>219821944>>219822280To be fair, the official art for Rambo 2 isn't much better. The artist stuck a Soviet RPG-7 on an M60 LMG.
>>219824203Cobra was just Stallone's version of Beverly Hills Cop, if I recall correctly.
>>219830755How lucky for him that that chandelier happened to be mounted on a swivel.
>>219821559Isn't that basically Rambo.
>>219832087Punisher MAXIt will never be put on film
>>219824294>Louis Gosset Jrkino
>>219838911Rambo is jungle warfare
I have a hard time picturing him in the role. Maybe it's because all I see when I look at him is Rocky and Rambo, but he's got too much of a reluctant hero look on him. Punisher needs to be a dude who can look and sound 100% pissed off with absolute conviction 100% of the time and never regret anything he does, he's too far gone for sympathy or remorse. Thomas Jane had the same problem, he just looks like some guy.
>>219837881Rifle grenade on a machine gun honestly looks badass and practical.
sylvester stallone is unironically 4'7 irl and is standing on a chair in every scene in all his movies
>>219824294If he wore the skull shirt this would be the perfect Punisher film.
>>219821559The last Rambo movie basically was a Punisher movie.
>>219840425More like "Taken meets Home Alone" with the ugly green lighting of Saw.
>>219834309its low quality ai slop, look at his suit etc
>>219838913Garth Ennis did it best
>>219821651why not?
>>219840271The Germans did that, but the most iconic Soviet RPG being jammed into the barrel of the most iconic American machinegun is really fucking retarded.
>>219832087That was War Zone. It's a big, fat cheese and ham sandwich but it's fucking kino.
>>219826381>Tony Stark Al Pacino or Michael Caine>Black Widow Jodie Foster>NIck Fury Hasselhoff
>>219838913They did the Slavers arc in Punisher MAX in the Netflix show, it's the plot of season 2. Complete with lighting the pedophile on fire
>>219821559He has a massive hog
>>219844817How you know that?
>>219842011Delon is more of a Bucky. Punisher is supposed to be physically menacing, not a pretty boy.
>>219826381ben kingsley is a good actor but that's a ridiculous idea
>>219840358They didn't wanna do it but he does have skull paint on his face
>>219844667I don't even remember thatthey ruined the laastekist part of the suicide run in it though, at the beginning of s2if anything they should have done that, not garth ennis things or oc garbage
>>219846196>english pajeet in chinesium armor>post credits stinger show the real Tony Stark stepping out of the shadows
>>219847144suicide run aftermath*
>>219821559No. Pretty much every super hero film at that time was dog shit. Stallone wouldn't make a difference. Stop wanking at ai and kill yourself please.
>>219848093deathwish was good and so was a bunch of vigilante flicks
>>219848093nou
bump
>>219830454You say “anti-hero” but I don’t think you know what it means. Giving a guy a gun doesn’t automatically (scary word) make them an antihero, libtard. You’re right, he is an antihero but not because he has a gun. Is King Arthur an antihero because he has a sword?
>>219830755>>219832087I need to rewatch War Zone.
>>219825065>Marvel EDGElmaoAnyway, was that a good run? The only thing I ever read was the MAX run that came out around the 2004 movie and some of the older War Journals.
>>219847848They wasted the Russian making him some rando who dies in a gym fight
>>219827156FUCK YOU! I’m not that old.
>>219827398He’s only bald in the first two issues.
>>219832087I was hoping MCU would do this. Castle could be operating as a boogie man, on kills……THE MOB. That’s why The Avengers didn’t know him. Similar to Spider-Man.
>>219853515It’s very much a product of its time. It hasn’t been reprinted, I have to go to comic cons and used book stores to read collect them all.
>>219853415>Giving a guy a gun doesn’t automatically (scary word) make them an antihero, libtard.I didn't say any of this, you retarded rightoid. I just said punisher is an anti-hero and not a hero. A character having a gun doesn't necessarily mean he's an anti hero, but brutally killing people does.
>>219833987>>219825995>>219824469How abouy 80s Timothy Dalton as Tony Stark?
>>219855069obliged to be a villain because Britishor a butler I guess(better to be a villain)
>>219823249Already been done m8,keep up!
>>219855299impossible to film, too expensive even by modern standards, lol.
>>219825355nta but yeah im more a Sly kind a Guy
