Spike760 16 Posted August 26, 2010 Machete Did anyone ever see Grindhouse? Remember those commercials for the fake movies, Machete was the first one, and now they're making it into a real movie. It's going to come out next Friday. Is it supposed to be serious or like a joke? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W8cCzltPD6Y ~ Original Grindhouse Trailer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Prism 8 Posted August 26, 2010 Planet Terror, you mean. Serious or a joke, I don't care. This will kick ass. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spike760 16 Posted August 26, 2010 Yeah, Grindhouse is Planet Terror + Death Proof. I was reading up on this, and Eli Roth is making an actual movie based off another fake trailer that he directed in Grindhouse, Thanksgiving. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Prism 8 Posted August 26, 2010 Yeah, they're both nothing alike though, so I don't really consider it a title for both of 'em. Plus Grindhouse was always just a term for the theaters that showed these kinda movies. Blame my brother, he's lodged too many Grindhouse/Exploitation movies into my brain.

tosinn 3 Posted August 26, 2010 Grindhouse was fucking ace, so I'm definitely watching this one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mono 0 Posted August 26, 2010 This is SERIOUS and a bloody tribute to old grindhouse movies. People wanted to see it so bad they decided to make it into a movie. Danny Trejo has his first mainrole in this movie and the movie will for sure be a legendary movie. The second best movie this year just beat by The Expendables. But also include very awesome role castings. The best ever, actually. Been waiting for both this and The Expendables for a very long time now, so this will rule so hard. Both will be the manliest films ever made with Rambo 4 as a good third. Best movie year ever? yeah, it is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LIDL 692 Posted August 27, 2010 oh? It's action movie? Cos before, i've heard this suppose to be spin off from Spy Kids. U know, he was the uncle from the Cortez kids. Maybe i got missinformed? However, i am looking forward to this. Was prettay dissapointed by The Expendables, so i need a good action movie! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vurtox 3 Posted August 27, 2010 ^ Naw, according to Robert Rodriguez this Machete has nothing to do with the Spy Kids one. Joke or not Robert Rodriguez makes amazing films. Totally want to see this shit, ASAP. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
anieresus 270 Posted August 27, 2010 This is going to be so fucking awesome Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spike760 16 Posted August 27, 2010 I was reading on IMDB, and it said that Machete (character, not just the actor) was in the Spy Kids movies. http://www.imdb.com/character/ch0006776/ So are you sure they're unrelated? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
anieresus 270 Posted August 27, 2010 It was their uncle I think not sure :S Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LIDL 692 Posted August 27, 2010 Yes, he was. An uncle that provides the kids with gadgets and stuffs. But i was looking around and i found this: "Machete continues the B movie and exploitation style of Grindhouse, including in part the same footage. Danny Trejo stars in his first lead role as the title character. He also played the role of a character named Machete in the Spy Kids franchise, which Rodriguez directed. However, they are not intended to be in the same fictional universe." So Vurtox right. I just saw the trailer and it looks fine Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spike760 16 Posted August 28, 2010 That's kind of stupid. Machete, who is even named that that there would be two characters in two different movies by the same director and played by the same actor. They should be the same person, it would be funnier too, lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Karma’s Hat 3107 Posted August 28, 2010 Wonder when it's coming out in my country... I really liked Grindhouse, so i'll be expecting something really entertaining! Also Machete was my favourite from the grindhouse trailers, hope they'll get around to make the other ones as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LIDL 692 Posted August 28, 2010 ^ Regarding that, i've read that hobo with a gun and Thanksgiving are also on production, so just wait and see Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SUGIZOLOVER 1 Posted August 28, 2010 i can respect a good grindhouse. I like forward to it with a open mined Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
-D-eadStam_aliv-E- 0 Posted September 5, 2010 I m looking forward to hobo with a shotgun,i think it ll be better. (for me) At some points on the trailer it reminded me of tokyo gore police. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LIDL 692 Posted September 5, 2010 have anybody watch this yet? I haven't. Wondering if the whole thing any good? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Flame-X 441 Posted September 8, 2010 I've seen it. It's pretty entertaining especially the last 10-20 min of the film. Like the Expendables, it's your straight up popcorn flick. If I were to rate it, I'd give it 7/10. And damn... Michelle Rodriguez is such a babe. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted September 8, 2010 I didn't see it yet but I'll give it a 10/10. Didn't see The Expendables yet either, but I'll give it a 10/10. And Michelle Rodriguez is butt-fuckin'-ugly! Bad actor as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Flame-X 441 Posted September 8, 2010 Nice trolling.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted September 8, 2010 I'm not trolling. Just telling the truth. I've been waiting for both movies for a long, long time now and there's just no chance I'll get dissappointed by any of them. But I haven't seen The Expendables yet because I've been sick and not able to go to the movies. Sadly. As for Michelle Rodriguez. When did she ever do anything good? She never managed to touch me with her acting. She was always over playing everything and nothing did ever seem real. She's just shit. And no, I do not find her pretty at all. Never did, never will.
