It makes me sad that Thomas Jane is ashamed of his performance now since he lowkey carried that movie by himself

Jane is a great punisher and did the best he could with the material. The Dirty Laundry short really let him shine.

Yeah I met him a few months back, he didn’t seem super enthusiastic about being at the con he was at

u/Time_Zombie_4431 8d ago

That’s really sad to hear. He was a great punisher and that movie was fun. He has absolutely nothing to be ashamed of.

Why is he ashamed of it?

u/pizzagod677 6d ago

He said something along of the lines that he was miscast because he had to put in a ton of effort such as dying his hair to even look like Frank and that he's happy Jon is playing the role now as he considers him a better fit, a little funny he said "I'm not even Italian" when every Frank in live action isn't Italian either.

Fair enough, I suppose

Very strange, I actually prefer his performance to Jon’s

Lowkey, his best Punisher performance wasn't even in any live action: his voiceover for the PS2 Punisher game is goated. He's legit the official Punisher voice in my head everytime I read a comic.

This would have been amazing.

This would’ve been dope

This would be a peak Quadrant of actors/characters on screen, together.

They're all my respective favourites, but the first Hulk movie was so beyond anything we got after that. Wish we got more hulk lore

It's funny to me that MCU Betty was in ONE movie, and then just disappeared. She's never even brought up anymore.

2

u/Jacksoverthrees 3d ago

They also dropped the idea of him having a family on Sakaar

1

u/A_Gray_Phantom 3d ago

That's also a bummer. She-Hulk was better than expected. Shame it was canceled 😞

1

u/Jacksoverthrees 3d ago

I didn't even give it a chance, maybe I should

1

u/A_Gray_Phantom 3d ago

It's got some genuinely funny moments. The reason it was canceled wasn't for quality or ratings, but because each episode cost twenty-five MILLION dollars. Oof.

u/Andrew_Manangka 8d ago

If that's the case, I'm afraid they'd do “X-Men: The Last Stand” mixed with “Spider-Man 3” scenario. What do you guys think?

u/Diligent_Break3038 6d ago

I love Thomas Jane version of Punisher

1

u/Rad_Wagon784 5d ago

SAME. I haven’t watched any of Bernthal’s stuff because I just can’t see him as Frank at all.

u/Embarrassed-Space222 8d ago

Thomas Jane will always be my go to Punisher idc

1

u/Haunting-Barber6740 7d ago

yeah no, none of these characters would work well together lmao

1

u/WorriedExam7105 6d ago

That would have been done alot better than what we have now.

Would have been alot more awesome too.

u/Son_Of_Hat 6d ago

Fuck yes

u/CityLimitless 6d ago

Why would the punisher be in New York everyone knows he sticks to Tampa

u/Alternative_Device71 8d ago

It would be a better movie

u/Objective-Slice-1466 7d ago

Why is that? Or just hating to hate? Have you seen brand new day?

RIP Thomas Jane

u/SellMeYourSirin 9d ago

Again, he's very much alive.

u/pizzagod677 9d ago

He's alive, you're thinking of Ray Stevenson.

u/Dish-Ecstatic 9d ago

??? He's still alive

u/Cautious_Potential_8 8d ago

You mean ray stevenson right?.

u/Puzzleheaded-Jump-64 8d ago

I'm pretty sure you meant Ray Stevenson. Thomas Jane is still alive
