The only thing this flick needs now is Mike Patton to do the OST.
Maybe we know a different Neveldine and Taylor, but I remember them as being involved in the awful Gamer and the extremely awful Jonah Hex adaptation? Not to mention the weak Crank/Crank 2? So, why should I be excited that directors with bad credentials are now involved in a sequel to one of the worst films of the past decade? Plus, have you even seen the writers involved? AT least one of them you hate with a deep dark passion (at least considering your many post in a certain thread on this forum)...

It certainly doesn't help that Christopher Lambert is involved with the film...Ciaran Hinds as the Devil could be fun though...

(That being said, since when is Elba an "up and coming actor"?)
