Chuck has another movie comin out.

Sign in to disble this ad
Only took nine years but sounds pretty ossim!

http://chuckpalahniuk.net/movies/choke-movie/choke

I've read Fight club, Survivor, Invisible Monsters and Choke. Saw Fight Cub before I read it but I saw it seven times in the theatre. They're talking about Invisible Monsters I think next. They tried to do Survivor but since it involves hijacking a jet and crashing it they decided against it. After Fight Club Invisible Monsters is my fav. Hope they get that done. I think someone tried to do Survivor. Saw a trailer for it on youtube, looks really low budget. Well I think I'm gonna go buy me a book.

I like this guy. Fight Club was cool, but choke is kind of a cool social commentary. I actually started reading this book and then accidently left it on the airplane, and never got around to picking it back up.

I think I'm the only person that doesn't like Chuck Norris. I'm cool with Palahniuk though.

This is why I didn't refer to him as Chuck.

He's a pretty big douche in person. I was in martial arts for 7 years and he was my judge at a competition called The Battle of Atlanta. He gave me a good score but afterwards he was talking to us and proceeded to tell us about all of his awards and whatnot.

On a positive note though, Evander Holyfield was another one of my judges and was a great guy.

I have a bad feeling that choke(the film) is gonna blow really hard.

The book was amazing but I don't think whomever is directing this is gonna get it right.

Nobody has been excited about a Chuck Norris movie since...

Yep. And besides, it wouldn't be news--doesn't Chuck Norris put out a new straight-to-DVD flick every week or so?

No one ever got excited about a Chuck Norris movie? You forget:

Lone Wolf McQuade.

One of the GREAT B-movies. Chuck-fu, karate-fu, Supercharged Dodge Ramcharger-fu, .44 Magnum-fu, Texas Ranger-fu.

What more do you need???

I actually own this movie.

I watch them for the comedic value (I owned Firewalker before the Norris craze even started).

My recommendation is with Hitman. The tagline was something like "He's so far undercover he may never come back". Plus he has a kickin' mullet.
