Hee hee.

wow....that looks awesome and Aerosmith's "Back In The Saddle" to boot!

I'd see that.

It also reminds me.....what the heck will I do when I'm put out to pasture. Being an action-hero is tough to stop doing.

Great cast, and it looks like a real hoot.

I'm there.

What's the connection to DC?

DC Comics' "Red" getting big-screen treatment

LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - Summit Entertainment is entering the comic-book adaptation business, picking up the movie rights to WildStorm/DC Comics' "Red," which revolves around a former CIA agent.

The project marks the first time that a DC Comics title is leaving parent company Time Warner's fold. Still, DC will remain an active participant in its adaptation.

The three-issue comic series, published in 2003, told the story of a former black-ops CIA agent now living a quiet life in retirement until the day a high-tech assassin shows up intent on killing him. With his secret identity compromised and his love interest in danger, the man must reassemble his old team to figure out who is after them. The book was written by Warren Ellis.

Brothers Erich Hoeber and Jon Hoeber are writing the action film. Their adaptation involves the idea of an older operative who's set in his ways and must contend with younger and more fit agents as well as modern techniques and technology.

This is what I get for being out of touch with recent comics.

Could be an interesting movie, but I think a cameo appearance by Linda would give it more credibility.

You know, being "Red."

LINDAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!

This was a great little 3 issue action/espionage series by Ellis with gorgeous art by Cully Hamner - well worth checking out!
