Once Upon A TIme In MEXICO!!!!


http://www.sonypictures.com/movies/o...ico/index.html



I've been waiting for this movie ever since I found out it was even in pre-production. I loved El-Mariachi and Desperado and this one has Johnny Depp as the bad guy! C'mon, this is gonna kick so much ass. This is the Robert Rodriguez I love.

I unfortunately missed both theatrical releases of El Mariachi and Desperado, but I will NOT miss this one!

So, how much was Rodriguez given to make this film, and how much of it was actually spent? Rodriguez is noted for making films for low amounts of money ($7000 for El Mariachi, and $2mil for Desperado), and I was wondering if he stuck to the same procedure with this film.

Spoiler:
If I remember, wasn't Cheech Marin's character killed in Desperado?

I saw this trailer on ET last night and the movie looked very similar to "Desperado" and "El Mariachi" with an addition of Johnny Depp character trying to catch Antonio Banderas. All of a sudden, I noticed Enrique Iglesias is in the movie as well. I'm not sure about this flick. It's going to be action packed alright.

When is this movie expected to come out anyways?

doesn't look as good as the others and Johnny Depp in this part seems off....

Yeah, but Cheech Marin is a staple of Robert Rodriguez movies. I'm sure he just cast him in a different role.


Todd, the movie comes out Sept. 12th.

Thanks for the link, Scott. I hate streaming video....

Wow, Antonio Banderas, Salma Hayek, Johnny Depp, Mickey Rourke, Reuben Blades, Willem Dafoe, Enrique Iglesias. Heck, even Danny Trejo, my all-time fave two-bit baddie! This will be one fun film!
