Comic-Con: Thomas Jane Unveiled a New Punisher Short Film With Special Guest Ron Perlman

Collider:
Do you know the difference between justice and punishment? Thomas Jane does and he proved it to the relatively small audience gathered at a Comic-Con panel for RAW Studios. In an intimate setting in a small convention room that wasn’t titled Ballroom 20 or Hall H, Jane ran the show for the independent studio presentation. Their projects included a Bad Planet videogame adaptation of their comic series with gaming studio Red Flag, a short conceptual film for a Western they’re producing called A Magnificent Death from a Shattered Hand and, to the delight of Punisher fans in the audience, a fantastic short film featuring Jane as the Marvel anti-hero. That was awesome enough, but a special guest star also joined the presentation: Ron Perlman, who recently proved how great a human being he is, had a small cameo in the film. Hit the jump for a recap of the Punisher short film featuring Jane and Perlman. (Chad St. John, Dirty Laundry, Indie film, Phil Joanou, Ron Perlman, San Diego Comic-Con, The Punisher, Thomas Jane)

Thomas Jane should have stayed as the Punisher when they did the second one...I thought he was great in the first one.

Great stuff.

I don't care what people say...Thomas Jane was a great Frank Castle. Sure the movie had some issues, but he did a great job with the character. Wish they'd bring him back with it.

I thought so too...I loved that movie with him playing the part and he should have continued with it.

yea he was great Travolta was bad. Even the charcter around travolta mostly his right hand man was well played i thought just travolta was over the top.

I absolutely loved Thomas Jane as Punisher.I wish Hollywood didn't suck with reboot crap and kept him on......

As much as I liked War Zone more, I always enjoyed Jane's portrayal of the character too. Both him and Stevenson approached the character with COMPLETELY different takes that I don't think would be fair to compare.

Jane was going for the emotional side, which was a little too much for my liking and Stevenson the over-the-top violence, which was AWESOME, but had little to no story.

I'd like a proper mix of the two, which this short seems to be doing.

MAKE MORE PUNISHER STUFF

i cant wait for another punisher with jane. i liked the dolph lundgren punisher but when jane did his it made it the best punisher. war zone is a real crappy movie its like the two incredible hulk movies.

This short was awesome. Marvel wake up, get Thomas Jane back, and let him work with someone to make a Punisher movie. just keep it away from Avengers and it won't need to be a PG rated action movie.....

thomas jane was OK as the punisher but i think there might be a lot of other actors that might be better. they should make the movie at least PG-13 because i dont even know if punisher has a huge fanbase such as spiderman, hulk and others...it might be at par with blade..and blade movies were better done than the punisher movies..excluding the third one of course. an r-18 movie might cut down significant target market of audience. they should have controlled violence such as dark knight to make any upcoming punisher movie work.
