trailer looks great!

really excited for this...

Ozymandias · 10-25-2008, 08:38 PM

looks crazy in the trailer, sure to be an awesome display of angry acting

My first car was a '75 Gran Torino. Paid $450 for it in '82.

Sorry for the thread-jack.

I hate gangs, I hate immigrant Asian gangs even more. What's the point of coming to the U.S. if all you're going to do is start a gang and engage in criminal activities?

Good for Clint Eastwood to make a movie like this. I will definitely be checking this one out.

don't think it was a thread jack since in the movie he drives a Torino.

He sounds like Batman in TDK. Ha!
Looks great. Can't wait.

LOL! Thats kind of how he sounds now. All his bad as* characters have come back to him.

"Why didn't you call the Police"?
"I prayed that they would show up, but nobody answered"

Best line ever!

Clint has sounded like that before, take a look at Heartbreak Ridge. I think Batman (Bale) had been watching that film before he decided on the Batman voice in TDK.

Looks cool

And we know Clint can really get ominous like in Unforgiven. Unstoppable.

I'm so excited to see this!

All the reviews I've read have been positive.

Argento Fan · 12-12-2008, 02:48 AM

Clint could still make another Dirty harry, and have it "credible". The guy is just awesome. Take that Mr. Spike Lee

Crim122 · 12-12-2008, 02:48 PM

Wow I had no idea it was coming out today (limited) hopefully it comes out here so I dont have to wait until January to see it

mikejet · 12-14-2008, 06:30 AM

BRILLIANT ****ING FILM. Clint is the man in this. There is a lot going on the in the movie and nothing happens the way you would expect. I kind of think this is Clint's personal feelings on the current PC state of affairs in the world.

Everyone should watch this. It's kind of like Crash but if it was made by a ****ing bad*** mutha****er.

I had heard early that there would be Oscar buzz for this but that's died down a bit lately. I'd love to see Clint get a nomination

GreenScar · 12-14-2008, 05:31 PM

I just read that over the weekend Gran Torino blew everyone out of the water with a Per Theater Average of $46,250!

That's over $277k for the six screens it's being shown on!

Simply amazing

Great movie! Eastwood was awesome in this. Even my gf enjoyed this and shes pretty picky.
