is filming!
Vin
Diesel shared this photo on his
Facebook page.
Made my day! Can't wait for the story to continue . . . Follow
him for updates on the movie. He posts regularly and it seems like
it's really him. Also follow Director David Twohy's blog for rare posts that may, hopefully, pick up (if he has time) now that they are filming. "7 DAYS AND COUNTING January 15, 2012 A lot of you already know how close we are to rolling camera on RIDDICK."
Jan 18 HAYWIRE | Gina Carano
At Last!! Here comes a truly powerful woman kicking ass. I'm not saying all women have to or should look like the American Gladiator powerhouses here, but this is the kind of woman women want to see more of on screen. Women like: the real deal strength-wise Valerie "Siren" Waugaman (second from left) my pick for Red Sonja (see Seeing Red Over Sonja) over someone selected to please men like Rose McGowan; and like the star of HAYWIRE (third from left) Gina "Crush" Carano.Jan 1 2nd Annual Top 100 Action Movies
It's out! AllOuttaBubbleGum.com's 2nd annual list of the Top 100 Action Movies was posted today, and here are the results (condensed). Looks like the combination of John Woo and Chow Yun Fat is best, holding the first spot and tied for the second. If you LOVE this, listen to like-minded fun on their podcast. The list is a little Western heavy (I can't argue they are not great movies though with great Action and definitive Bad-Ass characters.) Rambo is the only series where ALL the movies made the list. To celebrate that is the best tribute video EVER (at the bottom)!HARD BOILED
