Yeah, me too!

Looks like a Redbox rental to me.

Stealing Clint's "gun finger" from Gran Torino nets you negative Karma points.

No one "stole Clint's gun finger". This is a tribute to the original. It was the very last scene in the movie of Charles Bronson pointing his gun finger at some thugs in the airport.

Ooh, I sense a sequel! That sounds like a totally badass storyline!

I saw a Glock and some perps get blown away by a citizen who si stirred of it. Part John Wick, part Falling down. I wait for Rotten Tomatoes but I'll definitely watch on blu-ray.

Bruce, I knew Paul Kersey. Paul Kersey was my hero. And you're no Paul Kersey.

Did Clint steal Bronson's gun finger? Shame on you, Clint. Shame on you. Get off of Bronson's lawn.

I've got mixed feelings on this remake. For me, the original worked because of how discreet Bronson was. It wasn't really an "action" film. We'll see.

Surely there must eventually be a liberal turn to the story, where the hero comes to realize his actions are wrong.

Yeah but with this day and age of smart phones, nothing is ever truly discreet.

And if was an angry black or hispanic leading character, it would be racist.

I wasn't sure but now I'll go see it

What was the Death wish were the old guy had the WWII Brownings in his closet? That was cool

I remember that scene. That was fun for sure.

I will watch it on Netflix..
It will be a fun way to kill 1.5 to 2hrs.

It is hard to beat or out do Charles Bronson, he just had that hard edge and look to him.

When I saw the thread topic and before I clicked I started groaning, and saying great a millennial is going to do a remake. (I hate the term re-boot)

DEAF WITCH ARE RACIST!!

I'll go to the theater to watch this film, with the 20 minutes of SENSORY ASSUALT "PREVIEWS" of the complete crap coming out of Commiewood these days, just to piss off the left.

Racist? Puh-leeze, and fuck you.

I wear earplugs at the theatres these days. It's particularly helpful during the previews and when theatres have their sound system turned up to 11.

Eli Roth's Death Wish remake is so nakedly fascist that alt-righters will have an erection before the trailer ends

Can someone 'splain this to me?
I understand the words, but they make little sense.

It seems "facist" is the new "racist"; soon neither will mean anything anymore. (The term racist means nothing to me now).

And I'm gonna pay to see this in the theater just because

(I wonder if I should consider The Color Purple "Alt-Left"?)

Well, Bruce should really send all of the butt hurt, eco-friendly, gender fluid snowflakes a thank you card for the negative reviews. It isn't even out, and they are ensuring that he's going to make enough money off this film to buy two more houses.

Thanks, Snowflakes!
