DrPhil2501 Posted July 14, 2007 Share Posted July 14, 2007 Check this out This will definatly be on my must see list. Yeah, baby; HITMAN! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reclaimer Posted July 14, 2007 Share Posted July 14, 2007 I'm disappointed, because the actor seems like a kid, compared to the Agent 47 in the game. I think they should get the pizza guy they based 47 off of. I mean, I love the Hitman series, but the actor was a poor choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrPhil2501 Posted July 14, 2007 Author Share Posted July 14, 2007 I read somewhere they were going to hire Vin Diesel for the role. Heck, it probably won't suit him, but he'd be alot better than that other guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabretooth Posted July 14, 2007 Share Posted July 14, 2007 Oh dear. He is so not Agent 47. What the hell was wrong with Ben Kingsley as Agent 47? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reclaimer Posted July 14, 2007 Share Posted July 14, 2007 Yeah, Diesel wouldn't fit the image of 47. Diesel is known for his shoot them up movies, while 47 is quiet, stealthy. Ben Kingsley would make a great 47. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrPhil2501 Posted July 14, 2007 Author Share Posted July 14, 2007 I'm disappointed, because the actor seems like a kid, compared to the Agent 47 in the game. Yeah, I suppose the actor was a poor choice. However, if they shaved Timothy Olyphant bald (and I mean BALD, with no specs of sprouting hair what-so-ever), build up his face a little more to make him older, I reckon he could pass as the real Hitman. As far as I can tell, I haven't seen a movie staring Timothy Olyphant. So I can't really judge his acting skills without seeing them. But yeah, Ben Kingsley would have done it nicely.

Yeah, I guess he would, but I think he is an amatuer actor, and with Hitman being an awesome game, I hope they don't **** it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lets just hope they don't. 'cause if they do, I will never play Hitman ever again! Trailer : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r1SeyA7xJn8 I've just watched the trailer; the Movie is lookin' good so far. Now I will have to wait till it comes out in cinemas for further results.

I'll still play Hitman, but I'll bomb the director's/producer's house for ruining the movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But yeah, Ben Kingsley would have done it nicely.well, he played the bad guy in the latest Die Hard movie, and he did a decent job. and i, for one, think that too many people are placing too much importance on how little Olyphant resembles 47 (or at least the perception thereof). if i remember correctly, people were saying the same thing about Daniel Craig in his role as 007 in Casino Royale, and that movie turned out extremely well in large part due to Craig's acting. i think that you people need to lighten up and give the guy a chance at least till the movie is released. i hate it when people are so convinced that someone is guilty until proven innocent. that's my two pennies on this thing.

Yeah, you're right. I thought Daniel Craig was gonna do a terrible job playing James Bond, but he played it off nicely. So I suppose I could say the same thing about that Timothy Elephant xp. Now I remember who he is! He stared in Gone in Sixty Seconds, The Girl next Door, and some other films. He did an okay job in those, but I shall remain in doubt of him being Hitman until I see the movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jediphile Posted July 15, 2007 Share Posted July 15, 2007 Timothy Olyphant also plays the villain in Live Free or Die Hard, where I think did a good job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The cynicism, at least on my part, stems from the fact that they are making a movie on a franchise as great as Hitman. Games are games and cannot be movies, just like books. If they make a game-to-movie, they do it real good, or they don't do it at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
