Danny Glover? Don't remember a black guy in the novel. Hope that they don't make the mistakes as Stephen Hunter did, like "snicking the safty off" on his revolver. 0 -
"Shooter" is an action-packed thriller starring Mark Wahlberg as Bob Lee Swagger, a former Marine Corps sniper who leaves the military after a mission goes bad. After he is reluctantly pressed back into service, Swagger is double-crossed again. With two bullets in him and the subject of a nationwide manhunt, Swagger begins his revenge, which will take down the most powerful people in the country. Antoine Fuqua ("Training Day") directs.
Why does the word suck come to mind. I think they will take a good book that is pro gun and pro military and turn it into garbage.0 -
Well, they definitely played with the story...a LOT.
Hunter is a damn good writer; I hope this project has his stamp of approval...0 -
Hunter writes action movie fun stuff, but you can tell he does not personally have knowledge of rifles and such
At least he makes an effort to learn though, better than 99% of hollywood0 -
been awhile since I read POI, can anyone remember the other books, I know one was called Black light that related to how Bob Lees Dad was killed but seems there were a couple more 0 -
POI, Dirty White Boys, Black Light, Time to Hunt. Plus several more about Earl Swagger which are pretty forgetable. 0 -
And now Amazon is offering to take advance orders for the September release of a fifth Bob Lee Swagger novel. 0
