Jonah Hex Footage Description


The preview that was shown at yesterday’s panel. Here the highlights.

We’re told about Jonah Hex as we see him and someone asks how he got his
scar. He says that he’s never told anyone the story, though we see a flash of
him being branded. A voice tells us that, since then, he’s walked with one foot
in life and one foot in death. There’s a magical/vooddoo quality to some of the
shots, including a live crow crawling out of Hex’s mouth.

There’s a lot
of Megan Fox. One guy grabs her and says, “I own you.” She knocks him down and
says, “Never was much for being owned.” We see her doing a lot of fighting and
there’s a shot of her from behind, nude with Hex in bed.

Post-title, there’s a scene of another guy asking what happened to his
face. Hex says, “I cut myself shaving,” shoves an axe in his head and says,
“What happened to yours?”

I’m watching G4’s live coverage as I’m writing this post and later on tonight, I’ll be attending the Watchmen BD-Live event with Zack Synder.

On the Megan Fox issue. She’s too young to be playing a whore for the scared faced bountyhunter. Despite that, everything else about the movie sounds awesome. Especially with the last bit about with the axe. This better a hard R, not another victim of the PG-13 trend. Because if that happens, my enthusiasm will drop severely.
