To be honest as an avid reader of The Punisher I think so far all the attempts to do The Punisher on screen have been failures. The 1989 one was more of a vigilante revenge film. The 2004 one ruined the characters back story and was too comical in it's nature, not to mention that fire hydrant stuff. The latest one kept the back story of the character to the original and I thought Ray Stevenson did Frank Castle pretty well, but the script was not anywhere near as serious as it should have been and the film still didn't feel much like a Punisher film, even with the increased violence and nods to some of the characters. I think in order to do The Punisher right they need to make it realistic and gritty like the MAX line of graphic novels. And I suggest they watch The Wire and specifically the character of Omar as he is very Punisher-like in his appearance and his demenour. --[[User:Cool-breeze|cool-breeze]] 15:36, 26 November 2010 (UTC)

Excellent Thomas Jane Film?

Who put that there anyways? I think I threw up 4 times watching that movie based on pure boredom. What 2 gun battles in the entire pic?--Panther61DC08 15:48, 1 August 2009 (UTC)

IMFDB users seem to think the the 2004 version was great. I prefer the War Zone version. It's like Commando on Steroids.-Oliveira 16:59, 1 August 2009 (UTC)
MPM2008 wrote it. And it WAS an excellent film. Not everything in a movie need to be action. - Gunmaster45
I liked WarZone (punches through a dude's FACE), but Thomas Jane's version is definitely more character-oriented. Though WarZone seems closer to the comics.-protoAuthor

Got this version, will screencap-protoAuthor

Someone needs to change the headline on this page stating that the Tom Jane Punisher film was excellent, as that comment is purely the authors opinion. - PunisherDave

Done. 5/27/10 22:30 CST. -JAG1967
And undone, do it correctly or not at all. Also removing the sarcasm from the page. MoviePropMaster2008 04:23, 28 May 2010 (UTC)
