God Exists, Demands Gerard Butler Come Back For ANGEL HAS FALLEN
Headstab: The Series will continue.

Unfortunately for Thursday and Friday, this week just peaked.

What more can I add than what you read in the headline? There is going to be a third …Has Fallen movie, this one called Angel Has Fallen, which is the best goddamn title I’ve ever heard. This thing is already well on the right track.

Gerard Butler will come back as perhaps the most gleefully violent action hero since the ‘80s Mike Banning. This time, the bad guys are after him specifically and it appears their target for getting him is Air Force Once, nicknamed Angel.

If you’ve been out of the loop, this would be a good time to remind you that while not as good as Olympus, London Has Fallen wasn’t some lazy, no-good sequel either (like, say, the new Jack Reacher). It knew what kind of movie it was and even supplied a new kill move for Banning - the super slow stab! - while also giving us an exemplary one-shot shootout that already feels woefully forgotten and underrated.

Hopefully they can do it again. There’s no word yet on who will direct this thing. I doubt we’ll be so lucky for an Antione Fuqua return, but the sequel did okay without him, and I have faith this one will too.
716904, Can't wait for Longo's reaction to this.

altho London Has Fallen was just okay, and the new Reacher was excellent.

I saw the first one and didn't even see the second.

Did these movies even do well?

The most interesting/hilarious part of this is the movie being hyped like it's John Wick 4.

Gerard Butler is NOT that dude.

I like the title also. It deserves a better movie.
734974, Can't wait

These movies are just stupid fun. I'd try to give it Die Hard comparisons but it's more cartoonish like the Simpsons McBain movies. Gerry Buttler doing Old Man Action can do no wrong, just give me Den of Thieves 2.
735697, London Has Fallen is the best one in this trilogy.

It's exactly what you'd expect. Nick Nolte's grenade bombs rule.
