Transporter 3 Trailer Premiere

[twonunpackmule]

I love this series with a furious passion. They are so stupid, but so much fun. It knows exactly what it is, and never pretends to be anything more. It also doesn't piss in other people's pools.


Transporter 3 is coming...and I'm stoked!!!

I saw an international trailer a few months ago. I'm all for mindless action films.

I'm still kinda of curious why they chose a song about being submissive.

I love the Stooges...but "COME ON!"

Bad joke....I know.

Same, good news about this Transporter is that the distributor has changed and its not Fox anymore, its Lionsgate, which means there is a higher chance that the film will be more violent . I personally loved the first Transporter, second one was okay but nothing special, so I hope they make a comeback with this one.

The first one was fun, the second one was basically just the fight scenes because the rest of the movie was crap and had probably the most ridiculous ending I can remember recently.

Wait, so Fox is only distributing the flick?


Hmmmm, did Fox also give up the rights to the franchise? You know, like Sony did with the Hellboy series over to Universal?

I think Fox totally dropped out, and Lionsgate is the new distributer for this one, and possibly the upcoming films. And yes, it seems simular to the Hellboy situation.

Lionsgate Picks Up 'Transporter 3' Package
Thanksgiving release set for Jason Statham vehicle
June 3, 2008

Lionsgate has grabbed domestic (and Canadian) distribution for "Transporter 3," starring the studio's guardian angel Jason Statham.

The first two "Transporter" films were distributed by 20th Century Fox and they've combined to take in roughly $130 million worldwide.

Olivier Megaton is taking over the directing chores from Louis Leterrier, but the "Transporter 3" plot is expected to be every bit as lean as on the first two. In fact, Lionsgate just says, "Jason Statham returns as Frank Martin, the ex-Special Forces operative who specializes in high-risk deliveries."

Fair enough.

The sequel's cast also includes Robert Knepper ("Prison Break") and Francois Berleand ("Place Vendome"). The project, produced by EuropaCorp, shot last month and has moved into post-production with a Nov. 26, 2008 release planned.

"We are thrilled to be in business with EuropaCorp and to also partner again with Jason Statham, who from 'War' to 'Crank' and its upcoming sequel, is a well known and well-loved leading man in so many of Lionsgate's high octane action films," says Jason Constantine, Lionsgate's head of acquisitions. "We are delighted to add another film in the exciting 'Transporter' action franchise to stand alongside such other iconic Lionsgate franchises as 'Saw,' Tyler Perry and 'The Punisher.'"

EuropaCorp COO Pierre-Ange Le Pogam adds, "Lionsgate is a dynamic group, who we know will more than do justice to our dearest 'Transporter' opus 3. Everyone here is working hard to get ready to provoke and inflame the market for Thanksgiving."
