Hardy just said in an interview he’s at about 170 pounds and is shooting for a weight of 190 to 196 by May. He’s 5’9".
He supposedly hit 205 for his upcoming Warrior flick, so he shouldn’t have too big a problem with it.
“I hate training, but I’m doing this cage fighting film for the guys that did 300 and I’ve been training ridiculously hard with my trainer, Peanut, for about 10 days, a lot of weights, a lot of wrestling, a lot of punching and kicking and we put a tape together and sent it over to them. They called me the other day and said: Look, we’re really disappointed with you. It was horrible. I wanted to cry. But the next day Peanut and I sat down and had to talk our way back into doing it all again. They sent videos of what they wanted me to look like and I had to get on with it.”
But yeah, I’ll have to tell my girlfriend there’s no way I’m seeing the new Batman movie because the bad guy isn’t built enough.
I’ll take a picture of her face right when I tell her that.
I think it’s pretty racist how neither DC Comics or Marvel has yet to make a movie about a black superhero. I mean I’m not some comic geek and I don’t know of all the black superheros out there are but c’mon even if the material isn’t there why not make Batman black - I’m thinking between Diddy and Forest Whitaker. And at the very least why can’t they even put one black villain into a superhero flick. Is it so hard to imagine a black dude that wants to take over the world? Are like white people the only ones who have the motivation to cause massive cataclysmic destruction?

The sad thing is that 99% of the black super heroes in those comic book universes are horrible stereotypes and haven’t really been visited much lately, hence there not being much interest in making film adaptations. I do believe they are making a Power Man film though, or is it in development hell?

I think cows are racist for only making white milk, except for the ones that make chocolate milk.

Wasn’t DC or Marvel, I know, but Michael Jai White played Spawn way back in the 90’s.
I think it’s pretty racist how neither DC Comics or Marvel has yet to make a movie about a nazi superhero. I mean I’m not some comic geek and I don’t know of all the nazi superheros out there are but c’mon even if the material isn’t there why not make Batman nazi - I’m thinking between Hitler and Feder. And at the very least why can’t they even put one nazi villain into a superhero flick. Is it so hard to imagine a nazi dude that wants to take over the world? Are like jews people the only ones who have the motivation to cause massive cataclysmic destruction?

Nice effort, but Captain America will showcase Nazi villains.

I know right? As far as a Nazi villain, you don’t have to wait to long. I believe that the villains in the upcoming Captain America movie are “ze germans”.

Only if they can pull Tony Jaa out of from being Monk and put him into Black Panter coustume would I buy a ticket…
Well, Blade is still considered successful…but the reality is, Marvel didn’t even put their logo on the first movie at all because they expected it to fail. Blade gained more success as a cult following after the first movie was in theaters. That is why Blade is the ONLY Marvel movie made without the “flipping comic book and logo” intro of every other Marvel hero movie.
