Director John Dahl has backed out of Punisher 2. Not that I really care, there's no way in hell I'm seeing the sequel to a shitty movie that was a remake of another shitty movie.

"I love the idea of a kickass vigilante that's got a really black sense of humor, that can throw three people into a trashcan, light them on fire and walk away while they're screaming.

Wow, dude sounds pretty harsh. I like him already. I'm glad he's off the movie, because saying things like that might actually tempt me to see it.
