The Losers – Movie Trailer

Its getting to the point where you can’t turn around without running into another adaptation from a comic book!  It used to be that you could safely scour the shelves of a bookstore, alight upon a bestseller and be pretty sure it would be soon making its way to the big screen, now you need to go to the comic shop down the road! The Losers pulls together a geek friendly cast (including Watchmen’s Jeffery Dean Morgan and Star Trek and Avatar’s Zoe Saldana), bases itself on a popular comic book series by beloved comics scribe Andy Diggle and then lets rip with the big gun and explosions!

Having not read the book, the premise sounds astonishingly close to that of the other big budget explosion filled movie of the year, The A-Team. It does look like a lot of fun though and i’d go see it just for Jeffrey! (And not in gay way… not that there’s anything wrong with thatsomeofmybestriendsaregay…..)

    I read The Losers for the first 10 or 15 issues, as I recall. It was a great book. But, when it comes to film, who knows? I adored the Wanted mini series of comic books and the film was only about 25% the same which really pissed me off.
