    That's right 9 days until Hitman hits the big screen, who's excited, I am!
    Been looking forward to this since it was announced, but what if it's crap?
    Seriously, the game -> movie transition hasn't really ever been easy, will this be different, and awesome?
    Hopefully :D

    I dunno. All things considered, the Silent Hill movie was the best game to movie translation so far imo. Sure there were a few fundamental changes, but it could have bee terrible like the rest of them which it wasn't....

    As long as 47 is cold-hearted while making a hit, rather than 1990's action hero, "Hey mouse, say cheese." and generally maintains that aura of coolness brought on by the games, I'm more or less happy.

    looks crap tbh. From the clips it looks like they are making the hitman way too emotional for my liking. I would of been happy with there being no love interest at all.

    I'm not exactly excited about it, but I'll still give it a watch. It might be fun.

    hmm but what if 47 does the proper 47 thing and kills her/uses her to get to his target then its the proper 47 thing and we got our good hitman movie and maybe some boobies at the same time

    Judging from the trailer it looks like they are going for the "tortured soul" aspect ... he was a cold hearted killer, until one woman warmed his heart ... that kinda thing

    Hollywood studios would never release a movie that is 100% true to the series. They just don't make movies where the main charachter is an emotionless and remorseless killer for hire. I'm still looking forward to it though.

    Looks better than the first trailer did, but still don't hold much hope for it.
    Then again, I'm not a fan of the hitman games anyway.

    There were reports going around for a few months that the film was dumbed down to get a PG rating, but it just got an 18's rating in the US so I guess they were wrong.

    I think the trailers look ok but honestly think they got the wrong actor for the job here. I'll wait to see if the movie can change my mind.
