True Grit's an incredible movie and he gives a very interesting performance. I don't know what he does in this because I have never and will never watch it.
I forgot just how stacked the cast of The Losers was. Idris Elba, Zoe Saldana, Jeffery Dean Morgan, and Chris Evans back when JDM was the biggest star of the 4. Crazy.
I was actually invited onto the set since I have a Jonah Hex blog (Matching Dragoons, shameless plug). The Netherworld fight was the original ending, I believe. There was a LOT more film that was shot with Mike Shannon along with a big scene in a New Orleans graveyard. I don’t know why so much was cut. Talking to folks on set, the makeup guy talked about using a branding iron on a pork roast for research on how yo make the scar, almost everyone had fake rotting teeth prosthetics, and this movie ALMOST made the list for Best Makeup Oscar. The movie is terrible because of the supernatural stuff and inverting the characters motivations (Turnbull wanted revenge on Hex in the comics). The books have so much good content that they ignored.
I did notice and like the teeth thing. I also like how tough they made hex in this, he takes a lot of punishment (double barrel shotgun to the chest) i thought they combined a lot of the classic DC stuff, the HEX comic stuff(the hightech weapons) , and the vertigo stuff (Which is more supernatural ) but maybe that was too much for one movie
My initial impression of this movie was that it was originally gonna be rated R and a lot was cut out hence the short runtime I feel like there was supposed to be a sex scene with Jonah and Lilah but just a weird cut to them laying in bed lol
I feel like someone was trying really hard to cash in on a Comic license by trying to make a Pirates of the Caribbean "supernatural history" style action adventure and just fumbled the ball at every step. Which is a damn shame because I tend to enjoy a lot of Weird West stories.
I saw (most of) this movie in theaters when it came out. When it got to a little bit past the mid point of this horrible film I noticed two people next to me get up for what I assumed at the time was a bathroom break. About 10 - 15 minutes later they didn't come back, so I turned to my wife, who I was dating at the time and said, "I think we can just leave." And she said "Yes". Only movie I've ever not stayed for the whole thing.
@@AlexGonzalez-gf4oz he was too polite. He wasn't sure if he should let staff know they were leaving early so they can just stop playing the movie and have the theater cleaned ahead of schedule. He was being very considerate.
This film came out while I was working at a movie theater in New York and I could have seen it for free. I absolutely feel great for never having seen it.
Hah! Good call. Slightly related, I also worked at a theatre and took some friends to go see Ghost Rider 2. Upon leaving, one friend said to me ‘I got to see that for free, and yet I still want my money back.’
Dark Tower and Jonah Hex having the same production company adds a lot of context to both movies. Obligatory, Jonah Hex was in the Batman Animated Series and it was awesome (or atleast more consistent than this movie)
@Luis Z It's Jonah Hex. WWW has more fun and redeeming qualities to it. To some folks (myself included) it's a pretty enjoyable flick. I don't know ANYBODY who talks about liking Jonah Hex lol
No worries you will forget this movie. I watched this movie once 10 years ago and I literally only remember the Gatling gun scene and him shooting the dude in the bar. I remember this movie so little that I can’t even remember if I hated it or if I was meh towards it.
Every time I look at Jonathan Hexagon all I can think about is how uncomfortable it must be to do literally anything mouth related with that fused skin flap across his lips. Like, just cut it dude 😕
Hollywood exec decision-making always baffles me. "Hey, we spent a bunch of money on a property that people like, with decades of experimentation and refinement shaping it into what it is today." "Great, let's change it."
Batman & Harley Quinn is probably the most disappointing DC release in the last 20 years lol. At least BvS was a new thing and didn't have anything to tarnish
Hex's origin story is Dances With Wolves, but the chieftain's bio son resents the white guy for being better than him in every way, so he challenges him to a religious honor duel and sabotages his equipment, leading to Hex's exile and his face being branded. The character has always been a guy that supernatural stuff happens to, not that does supernatural stuff. He's literally just a decent gunman who has to deal with ghosts, demons, and getting thrown through time like Samurai Jack. Like, if in the next Justice League movie they're having a climactic battle on Apokolips, he could just be in the background capping parademons with a space gun while riding a robot horse, with several of the Female Furies draped on him like a Frank Frazetta painting, with no explanation or acknowledgement whatsoever... that would be the truest depiction of the character EVER.
Well, if you go by the Batman: The Brave and the Bold episode "Duel of the Double-Crossers", Hex DID hook up with Lashina at the end, so yeah, spot-on there!
That’s how Americans pronounce Megan though, so she probably calls herself ‘meegan’. Either that or may-gon But the true way is ‘meg-an’ Meghan is an Irish name and it’s pronounced like M+ egg 🥚 + Anne
They didn't mention it in the video, but the editor of the movie uses the same damn clip of Jonah Hex riding a horse every time they have him traveling long distances. By the third time that it happens, it comes across as comical.
wait, Boba Fett had a magic lizard come out of his nose just like Jonah Hex had a magic bird come out his mouth. does that mean Book of Boba Fett is just as good as Jonah Hex?!
I loved how they explained the scar on Jonah's face in Crisis on Infinite Earths crossover. Ezra's Flash, Ellis' Constantine and Jonah Hex - All unexpected!
Not sure what u mean by that. The Jonah hex from the crisis crossover is a different earth’s Jonah hex (earth 18). He’s not the same one from previous episodes of legends of tomorrow. The earth 1 Jonah hex was scarred by Quentin Turnbull after he set a church on fire with hex and the entire town of Calvert trapped within it.
@@thewerewolff7248 yeah you're right, the alternate Jonah didn't have the scar and Sara made the joke saying "I guess you were gonna get this scar eventually" when she mutilates him to make him submit
One of the only movies I’ve ever walked out of in the theater. I usually try to stick it out even when they’re bad, but I realized I’d rather do literally anything else with the next hour and ten minutes of my life than watch the rest of Jonah Hex.
It's amazing that not only did this movie not turn Josh Brolin off being in another comic book movie he actually went on to create two incredible characters, one of them I'd even call iconic, in different movies that came out the same year.
@@elmandarin1002 I was talking about in terms of how serious and brutal it was. It we are talking more specifically, I think Outlaw Josey Wales, 3:10 to Yuma and Hell on Wheels are good templates for what a good Jonah Hex movie could be like.
The original script was almost 100 minutes, but they didn't have the bollocks to do that. It might have been another _Ghost Rider 2_ situation, written by the same _Crank_ guys. Balls were shot off, Zombies were running rampant, etc...
I remember seeing this in theaters with my grandpa and my only knowledge of the character was from Batman the Brave and the Bold and BOY were we confused by this film
Worth it for crazy tattooed Fassbender character and that hot Megan Fox scene; [Jonah and Lilah are tied up] Jonah Hex: You still have that Derringer in your bustle? Lilah: They took it. Jonah Hex: You still have that snake in your garter? Lilah: They took that too. Jonah Hex: You still have that...? Lilah: They took it. Jonah Hex: Damn girl, they searched you pretty thoroughly, didn't they? Lilah: Wouldn't you?
I kind of want to hear your thoughts on "Cowboys & Aliens", but maybe another bad western from the 2010s with surprisingly A-list actors so soon is a bit much.
Richard Gatling is actually a relative of mine. Like a great great great great uncle or something to that effect. So now I can also say that Mr Sunday Movies has insulted my family. It’s quite the honor actually.
Jonah Hex...like Spawn, is one of those comic book characters who should work on the Big Screen...the only problem is to properly do either justice is to do a grimdark hard R film with barely a glimmer of comedy. Hex should be done as a serious western like how Logan was really a grim neo-western that just so happen to have comic elements.
I thought the idea of Hex having a link to the supernatural by communing with the dead was an interesting idea, kind of like Pale Rider. Unfortunately, I think it didn't work for the movie and derailed the character.
You're not far off: Brolin actually played scenes from High Plains Drifter for the WB/DC execs, telling them that's the sort of movie he wanted this to be.
@@claymathewselevator8121 - Johnathon Schaech has loved that character since he was a kid (his dad introduced him to the comics). He always had a blast playing Hex.
I have a crush on every boy! ARROWED!!!! "You must be girls" "I think I have a chance at this guy!" BAT! BAT! BAT! BAT! BAT! (Also, I never noticed the alien with the bat is named Thomas. w00t!) I forgot how funny the first few are. Reminds me of summer 2003 after freshman year of college.
There's nothing wrong with you, this movie was fine for what it is, Like you don't watch movies based on comic books expecting art house films. Don't get the hate for the film honestly.
"The Losers" is almost a good movie. Its a great cast, decent script and decent story. The problem is it is about Mercenaries with bloodless headshots and fake swear words. "The Losers" would have been amazing if they went full John Wick with the blood and swearing. When you watch it, it was clearly supposed to be Rated-R but was made PG-13 in the board room.
So I have to know.... Is there really a scene in this movie where his scar is randomly on the opposite side, or is it some weird editing in this video. I am not gonna watch this movie but I feel like I need this answered. It's around the 4 ½ minute mark btw
I think the editor of the film flipped the shot for visual continuity purposes, something which is fairly common, but it left the scar on the wrong side
This reminds me, I must get round to watching Gallowwalkers, the Wesley Snipes Morricone-crossed-with-2000AD zombie Western that totally flopped. I saw the second half of it years ago on TV and actually thought it was a lot of fun, so I ordered the DVD. Never watched it though. I think I'm afraid it might have been bad after all.
Hayward implied in interviews that they weren't concerned with ratings when shooting, but the closer the movie got to release, the more obvious it became that, while he wasn't concerned, the studio was. I think that may've also led to the flick getting so chopped up.
Corsets aren’t actually that restricting. This idea that they make women pass out is kinda crazy, if you’re passing out from a corset then you’re wearing it wrong.. it’s essentially a bra. Women used to wear them to do sports in lol
Also fun fact Matt LeBlanc, of Joey fame, has a producer credit on this movie. Apparently he had a movie production company that he had barely anything to do with and had no idea the movie was being made, but they slapped his name on it.
This is so weird as a film. Like... jonah hex is one of those heroes who is big enough to be in multiple animated shows with dedicated episodes and a movie... but he is too small for DC to care what you fo with him.
@@susanhillwig5784 the (pre-TV show) Moon Knight of DC. Before the show he was big enough to keep coming back but not big enough for an ongoing or for anything from the last run to be kept. After the show all the moon knight comics will be forced to be like the show.
I always joked that Cowboys vs Aliens should have been the Jonah Hex movie. Instead of mystical stuff, just cowboy with space tech and a robotic horse fighting aliens.
Hex also appeared in an episode of Batman the animated series where he fights the son of Ra's Al Ghul. The episode "Showdown" is also the final acting performance of Elizabeth Montgomery aka Samantha from Bewitched.
I'm going to be honest... I've seen this movie and I really can't understand why Mason is such a big fan of it... not great imo, but Nick Mason does love it and I suppose he's entitled to his opinion.
I watched this movie once when it was passing on TV, I confess that the only things I remember was the bird coming out of the mouth, Josh Brolin and the prothestics.
Dunno about DC graveyard, but I recall an 'avengers' movie made during the 90's with Sean Connery as the main villain. Really don't remember much of it other than Sean and all his cohorts being dressed up in giant teddy bear costumes.
DO GREEN LANTERN. Or don't, I'm just a guy who definitively knows whether or not there are more doors in the world than windows and chooses whether or not to tell people.
Just the utter hilarity when Maso is talking about the corset and Lawrence pulls the zoom in shakey cam while Maso stumbles on his words shit like that is so small and it makes me laugh my ASS OFF! everytime 10/10
Barbie Nutcracker movie is the best Barbie movie I was forced to watch. I say you do it for Christmas in July, and watch other straight to dvd children's Christmas movies for the month.
I watched this the first time I took an edible and ate 2 dozen hot wings and spent the last half of the movie swaying back and forth in front of my toilet as the movie still played on my laptop the room over
The CW version was awesome. But I remember liking the Josh Broccoli version when I watched it way back. I was surprised to learn that it flopped so hard.
The sequence with Richard Gatling deliriously bumbling his way around time and space was some peak comedic editing.
I was riding the bus home while watching and had stop before I cracked up in public
Went to the comments to say this and behold the first one I see.
Can’t believe that you guys got Richard Gattling on the show! I’m a bit worried that he might have dementia though.
Gattling is such a diva on set.
He
@@vicmatthews7747 ???
Can't believe this movie came out the same year as True Grit. TG was such an excellent Western. And josh Brolin was in both films. 😆
In a similar vein, Eric Roberts starred in both The Dark Knight and A Talking Cat?!? the same year as well.
And Toy Story 3 came out, that's got a Cowboy.
I literally thought True Grit WAS Jonah Hex until 30 seconds ago
True Grit's an incredible movie and he gives a very interesting performance. I don't know what he does in this because I have never and will never watch it.

One of my favorite Batman The Animated Series episodes; they had a zeppelin!
I just realized that Jonah Hex is the plot of Wild Wild West without the giant iron spider.
A giant robot spider makes way more sense than Malkovich's dragon ballz
I was about to comment "this looks like a worse, less fun version of "Wild Wild West", and that's not a thing I thought I'd ever say".

Of all performances in Brolin’s career (because nepotism) this was certainly one of them…
"The Losers" is almost a good movie. Its a great cast, decent script and decent story. The problem is it is about Mercenaries with bloodless headshots and fake swear words. "The Losers" would have been amazing if they went full John Wick with the blood and swearing. When you watch it, it was clearly supposed to be Rated-R but was made PG-13 in the board room.
So I have to know.... Is there really a scene in this movie where his scar is randomly on the opposite side, or is it some weird editing in this video. I am not gonna watch this movie but I feel like I need this answered. It's around the 4 ½ minute mark btw
I think the editor of the film flipped the shot for visual continuity purposes, something which is fairly common, but it left the scar on the wrong side
Watching it again it looks like they flipped the prior shot of the ‘tussle’ starting. That makes two shots they reused, the movie is even SHORTER!!!
Love The Losers... Was always on one of the movie channels for a while and would pop back up every once in a while.
This movie just jumps around so much, I feel like the finale came out of absolutely nowhere, but who doesn't love some Gatling during battling?
Wow I am shocked that this film had THAT stellar of a cast. How did this happen
Someone help me out here please, what's the movie being shown at 10:00?
This reminds me, I must get round to watching Gallowwalkers, the Wesley Snipes Morricone-crossed-with-2000AD zombie Western that totally flopped. I saw the second half of it years ago on TV and actually thought it was a lot of fun, so I ordered the DVD. Never watched it though. I think I'm afraid it might have been bad after all.
I always assumed they were planning a R rating, but had to cut most of the movie to get it to PG-13
Hayward implied in interviews that they weren't concerned with ratings when shooting, but the closer the movie got to release, the more obvious it became that, while he wasn't concerned, the studio was. I think that may've also led to the flick getting so chopped up.
I’ve read a ton of Jonah hex comics. I love the character. This movie is laughable but watchable garbage. Wish we just got a dark western drama.
I agree with you James. Really disappointed in Mason. Can't believe this is his 2nd favorite movie
You mean after cartoon Robin Hood because he's a furry, right?
This reminds me of another weird 2010 western, The Warrior’s Way. Watch that!
RIP lance
Corsets aren’t actually that restricting. This idea that they make women pass out is kinda crazy, if you’re passing out from a corset then you’re wearing it wrong.. it’s essentially a bra. Women used to wear them to do sports in lol
Also fun fact Matt LeBlanc, of Joey fame, has a producer credit on this movie. Apparently he had a movie production company that he had barely anything to do with and had no idea the movie was being made, but they slapped his name on it.
This is so weird as a film. Like... jonah hex is one of those heroes who is big enough to be in multiple animated shows with dedicated episodes and a movie... but he is too small for DC to care what you fo with him.
That is an absolute perfect way to put it. Jonah has tons of fans, but the comics don't sell that well. It's a crime.
@@susanhillwig5784 the (pre-TV show) Moon Knight of DC. Before the show he was big enough to keep coming back but not big enough for an ongoing or for anything from the last run to be kept. After the show all the moon knight comics will be forced to be like the show.
I always joked that Cowboys vs Aliens should have been the Jonah Hex movie. Instead of mystical stuff, just cowboy with space tech and a robotic horse fighting aliens.
Hex also appeared in an episode of Batman the animated series where he fights the son of Ra's Al Ghul. The episode "Showdown" is also the final acting performance of Elizabeth Montgomery aka Samantha from Bewitched.
That little clip from Eclipse was genius. I want these clips to be snuck into every vid from now on.
I'm going to be honest... I've seen this movie and I really can't understand why Mason is such a big fan of it... not great imo, but Nick Mason does love it and I suppose he's entitled to his opinion.
Ahem Legends of Tomorrow also did this entire storyline but better and more fulfilling, and with a better Jonah Hex
(much like how they did Constantine better)
I watched this movie once when it was passing on TV, I confess that the only things I remember was the bird coming out of the mouth, Josh Brolin and the prothestics.
Dunno about DC graveyard, but I recall an 'avengers' movie made during the 90's with Sean Connery as the main villain. Really don't remember much of it other than Sean and all his cohorts being dressed up in giant teddy bear costumes.
DO GREEN LANTERN.
Or don't, I'm just a guy who definitively knows whether or not there are more doors in the world than windows and chooses whether or not to tell people.
💚
Nice of you to finally review Mason’s favorite movie!
Just the utter hilarity when Maso is talking about the corset and Lawrence pulls the zoom in shakey cam while Maso stumbles on his words shit like that is so small and it makes me laugh my ASS OFF! everytime 10/10
You know when a 1 hour 20 minute movie fells like 3 hours its a bad movie
“feels”
“it’s”
Barbie Nutcracker movie is the best Barbie movie I was forced to watch. I say you do it for Christmas in July, and watch other straight to dvd children's Christmas movies for the month.
How does that scar even work...how do you get a new bit of skin.
I actually remember liking this movie. Only saw it once. Should prolly give it a rewatch.
I watched this the first time I took an edible and ate 2 dozen hot wings and spent the last half of the movie swaying back and forth in front of my toilet as the movie still played on my laptop the room over
Idk why but I think 14:22 is one of the most genuinely hilarious things these guys have ever said, the sincerity is so fucking funny
He’s riding a sensible horse.
I actually didn't mind this movie when I saw it a couple of months ago.
Andy Kaufman’s surreal psychological thriller: Emailing John Malkovich
“I’m Richard Gattling, where do I live?” 😭😭😭
The CW version was awesome. But I remember liking the Josh Broccoli version when I watched it way back. I was surprised to learn that it flopped so hard.
Top notch editing again lads.
You guys are without a doubt the most entertaining channel on RUclips, love you fucks
