Dirty Idea for Harry?

Joey here....not sure if everybody is aware yet, but it seems that between getting Oscar voters weak in the knees with his films, Clint Eastwood has possibly decided to make another Dirty Harry movie! Nothing has been confirmed yet, save for an article on Aint it cool news getting some play on the web (and as always, anything on that site needs to be taken with a grain of salt at first, though kudos to them if they turn out to be right), but it might be interesting to see how this film (called Gran Torino) would play to today's audience.

What do you guys think? Should Eastwood feel lucky (punk) or should he leave the franchise ressurection work to Sly Stallone?

Lemme know what your thoughts on the matter are!

  1. The real question is, if the sequel is made, will it win best picture?

    I think Eastwood could remake Pokemon the Movie and still be nominated.

  2. he could pull off Showgirls 2: Electric Boogaloo and make it seem like high art

  3. The Clint Factor lives.

    There are a few rumors going around about this one. I think the Dirty Harry story is one of them. At least I hope so.

    Clint is supposedly acting in this one and I can't imagine him being very convincing as Dirty Harry anymore. Dirty Harry the desk jockey.

  4. it may turn out to be just a quiet drama involving an old car (as i've also heard) but until we know more...who knows?

  5. It is called "Grand Torino" and it is NOT a "Dirty Harry" movie.

  6. actually, Gran Torino is the proper identification for the film ( http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1205489/ )

    and yes, it seems like it's unlikely to be a Dirty Harry movie, but there's still no true word one way or the other
