24 movie to start filming in Spring 2012! (hopefully)

[ChrisMC]

Woohoo! One of my favorite shows of all time. I loved how ridiculous it got, and it was probably the most addicted I've ever been to a TV show. Brian Grazer is gonna be producing this so it may actually happen this time.

Just read about that too.  Awesome!  I've been missing Jack Bauer something fierce!  Can't wait to see him kick some terrorist butt on the big screen.  :)

[Jobydrone]

Yes!!!  Also one of my favorites.  Serious geek crush on Chloe, too.  Hope she's in it.

I wonder if the movie is going to use the clock bit at all. Initially, that was the real hook of the show but I think eventually it was more about Jack Bauer and how much of a complete badass he is. I just wonder if they are going to go for the"real-time" aspect...they did it when they had the 2 hour TV movie 24:Redemption. It worked O.K. in that.

[Rico]

I could see it go either way.  I watched every season of "24" but I would be ok if not everything was real time.  Perhaps they just pop the clock in at key points.  As long as I get to see the patented Jack Bauer choke hold a few more times I'll be happy.  :)

[ChrisMC]

Yeah, the clock has to show up so Jack can yell "There's no time!! Tell me who you're working for!!"

Nobody chokes a terrorist like Jack Bauer. Let's not forget the famous wall-run into a choke hold from the season 2 finale.

LOL!  I think I need one of these t-shirts.

Ha! I'm getting that for my friend for Xmas, he'll love it!

[Rico]

And,.....it looks like it's off again - for now.  Dang nab it!  I want JACK BAUER BACK!  And on the big screen choking guys and kicking butt!!!   :biggrin
