Apparently Robert Rodriguez is planning to turn Machete (one of the fake Grindhouse trailers) into a full length film!

If the article wasn’t exciting enough, it also says he’s completed a script for Predators (a reboot of the Predator franchise). 
That’s the kind of news I want to start ever day with.
That is fabulous news…
…now all we need is this one to undergo the same treatment, and we’ll be there 
Now i know where i recognised the guy in the machete trailer…
…he’s one of the hired goons in the devil’s rejects, as well as being the bartender in anchorman
He was also in some of Robert Rodriguez’s other films like Desperado, Once upon a time in Mexico and From Dusk Till Dawn.

My apologies - i don’t actually know how that happened :? It has now been deleted accordingly
There’s a new trailer for Machete here. Quite impressive how topical it is given that it was filmed some time ago.
That looks awesome!
Didn’t realise how many big names were attached to it. DeNiro, Seagal, Alba…
Most of all though I’m loving Jeff Fahey (Lost’s Frank Lapidus).
But Lindsay Lohan . . . wtf?!
They’ve now released a set of posters
Well, on the up side, she won’t be involved in any of the publicising, will she?! :twisted:

Ooh, I don’t see why not. They could go for the badass lesbian sidekick angle or something. In an interview. From her prison cell.
Empire also cite a release date (Oct 29), which is the first one I’ve been able to find, so assuming that it doesn’t get pushed back some more(!) this is heading right for a slot in the Spring AllNighter
Nice little piece about it from the BBC in Venice…
I definitely would not have expected them to have been “kind of” thinking about it for that long :!:
