Rama's Screen

I wanna place a spotlight on three particular characters that have rocked the screen in the past few months. Three badass, craziest good guys whose methods of taking care of business were unorthodox yet effective, whose impressive charm stayed with us long after the movies were done, thanks to the great actors behind them. Zombieland’s Tallahassee, Daybreakers‘ Elvis, and From Paris With Love’s Charlie Wax. What did those three guys have in common? Or better yet, what does it take to be inducted in the craziest good guys hall of fame? Not that they’d give a damn about it. Heads up, this article contains SPOILERS!… Read the rest of this entry »

I can’t wait for this movie just so I can have fun watching John Travolta’s smartass badass attitude as Charlie Wax, the special agent with unorthodox methods and plays by his own rules. MySpace has the hilarious red-band clip from the upcoming movie, it’s restricted, so you might have to verify your age.
By the way, we’re going to hold FROM PARIS WITH LOVE giveaway contest here in a few days, so stay tuned.

I wonder if it’s a coincidence that the 2nd full trailer, via Apple, for FROM PARIS WITH LOVE hit the web on the same day that it was announced that this movie’s director Pierre Morel will be taking on DUNE. Ya, my money’s on coincidence but FROM PARIS WITH LOVE has become one my most anticipated movies of the year only because seeing psycho badass John Travolta beating Asian gang all by himself should be one helluva scene to watch.

We saw the 2 character posters, we’ve watched the crazy trailer, I wish I could show you the red-band int’l trailer which was even more insane but the studio asked me to remove it. Now Lionsgate has sent me the domestic new poster for FROM PARIS WITH LOVE starring the badass John Travolta who’s always good at playing bad guys and Jonathan Rhys Meyers who’s in for a wild ride. Directed by Pierre Morel (District 13, Taken), produced by Luc Besson. A low-ranking intelligence operative (Jonathan Rhys Meyers) working in the office of the U.S. Ambassador in France takes on more than he bargained for when he partners with a wisecracking, fast-shooting, high-ranking U.S. agent (John Travolta) who’s been sent to Paris to stop a terrorist attack. The tagline is “Two Agents, One City, No Merci” Ha! Merci.. get it?! View the whole image after this jump… Read the rest of this entry »

Lionsgate has requested me to remove the previous red-band trailer which is too bad because that one was more awesome but the green band teaser trailer for FROM PARIS WITH LOVE has hit the web via Yahoo. You can watch it using the media player below. I’m not digging the Ocean’s Twelve style music though, I was hoping something this action-packed would be accompanied by a Slayer song. But John Travolta’s character Charlie Wax is still intact and violent along with his joke about a billion Chinese people. Priceless!

FROM PARIS WITH LOVE opens February 5th, 2010

We saw the brief int’l promo showing crazy John Travolta acting like he’s some kind of John Wayne with a bazooka and now, IGN has the teaser poster for FROM PARIS WITH LOVE. I’m actually looking forward to this one because it’s directed by Pierre Morel, the same guy who brought us Liam Neeson’s badass action flick Taken. Cool artwork, huh? Never thought you could hold a miniature Eiffel Tower like you would a handgun.
