unlabelledView post →On my fourth rewatch this year, I’m starting to think that the movie Jonah Hex (2010) isn’t very good.
unlabelledView post →2024 Top 10 Comic Pickups #8 All-Star Western 10 This is the 1972 first appearance of Jonah Hex. 💥 After the Josh Brolin film from 2010, this book sank but with James Gunn now in charge of DC films, we could see Jonah done right. 💫
unlabelledView post →JONAH HEX (2010, DVD, #film) Eighty-one forgettable minutes of shambling money-bonfire nonsense. Drenched in flop sweat as the edit whips through unfinished scenes, temp CGI, and a mutilated, unoriginal script. It's a shame because there's some good makeup, stunts, pyro, and costuming to be had.
unlabelledView post →Section 31 is the worst science fiction movie I’ve seen this year, and I’ve watched Jonah Hex twelve times.
unlabelledView post →No AI in 2024 is putting twin vampire emperors, Dundus, and Denzel Washington in a screenplay. This movie came from the same anomalous dark hole Dracula 2000, Jonah Hex and Catwoman came from. It's peak human IDGAF creativity, and it should be celebrated as such before it goes extinct.
unlabelledView post →While I'm extremely disappointed this is happening... Seriously, fuck AI... This IS by the director of both Crank movies, Gamer & Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance... As well as the writer of the Jonah Hex movie. Honestly, this movie never really had a chance. (Hellboy deserves so much better!)
unlabelledView post →I would watch a proper spaghetti western-style Jonah Hex movie. The one they actually made *was not that*.
unlabelledView post →I saw a video of a dude doing a musical montage of every live-action DC movie ever made from Superman and the Mole Men (1951) to Superman (2025), including the Swamp Thing films and Constantine. Three films were omitted from his tribute: Steel (1997) Catwoman (2004) Jonah Hex (2010) Still nice.
unlabelledView post →Watching the Jonah Hex movie and man, did they miss the boat with this character. Feels like they didn't trust the character so needed to add to it, and by doing so, really took away from the appeal. Should have just been a small scale story of about a man's quest for vengeance

unlabelledView post →Not exactly his main villain (that would be Quentin Turnbull) but the 2010 Jonah Hex movie trimmed out many scenes involving Doc "Cross" Williams (Michael Shannon's character) because they suddenly decided they wanted to save him for the sequel. Just one of many dumb decisions!
unlabelledView post →Supergirl is FAR from the worst comic book movie. It's not Jonah Hex or Elektra (two movies I saw in theaters btw 🤮) It's very much the Captain Marvel "it's aggressively fine" space, even though I enjoyed it more than CM.

unlabelledView post →Can't decide if it was weirder for The Flaming Lips to do a soundtrack EP for the Ender's Game movie or Mastodon doing one for Jonah Hex
unlabelledView post →They gave two stars to Jonah Hex which barely a functioning film. Imagine watching the Lois and Clarke scene and thinking yup, two stars. Very strange.
unlabelledView post →The problem (for Hollywood) with making movies about comics characters like Jonah Hex or Sgt. Rock is that they aren’t and shouldn’t be superheroes. The Hex movie should have just been a straight Western, and a Sgt. Rock story doesn’t need some Red Skull-like Nazi mad genius.
unlabelledView post →What's interesting is that it feels like Jonah Hex is a riff on Josey Wales (ex-Confederate with a scar down his cheek, etc), but Hex predates the Josey Wales film & novel
unlabelledView post →I love Jonah Hex, have a big collection of these. I only wish the movie adaptation would have been better.
unlabelledView post →Oh Jonah Hex…how the fuck did you get a movie before 95% of the rest of the DC Universe? I know he’s popular, but I didn’t think he was THAT popular
unlabelledView post →Giving the Jonah Hex movie a go.

unlabelledView post →#ACenturyOfCinema continues, 2010. The comic book movie JONAH HEX infamously had a troubled production but like The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen there is a lot to like in this brisk revenge story. Not a classic by any stretch, but enjoyable & entertaining. #filmsky #comicbook #actionsky

unlabelledView post →It's been 15 years since this movie came out...can we PLEASE try and make a new Jonah Hex movie that stays truer to the character?
unlabelledView post →Jonah Hex is officially the only movie prior to Superman 2025 that will remain part of the D.C. comics cinematic universe after tomorrow.
unlabelledView post →If #Superman is a hit and the DCU continues, some projects I'd eventually like to see are.... -A Jonah Hex TV series for HBO MAX -A Justice Society of America movie -A Teen Titans Movie -A New Gods TV series on MAX. -A Detective Chimp cartoon on [Adult Swim]
unlabelledView post →This is my biggest problem with the Jonah Hex movie. (Among other problems.) It was about some kind of magic canon balls, and Hex can talk to dead people. It was a superhero movie set in the old west, not a western with weird elements.
unlabelledView post →Morbius and Venom have the same vibe as, like, the original Nick Cage Ghost Rider or the Jonah Hex movie
unlabelledView post →Studio suits forget that it has always been common to make a bad superhero movie. The good ones are unicorns. Every suit who greenlights a $300 million budget should be forced to first watch both Ghost Rider movies, the three Punishers, every Fantastic Four, Jonah Hex, Spawn, Green Lantern, Elekt
unlabelledView post →The letter clipped here was one of many sent in to the Jonah Hex comic in the early 1980s as fans started up a campaign to (unsuccessfully) get Clint Eastwood to star in a Hex movie, unaware that he nearly had in the 1970s. screenrant.com/was-jonah-he...

unlabelledView post →So, what actually happened with the Jonah Hex movie that it went from having a pretty respectable script and on target to be good and then it wasn't? Just poorly-considered reshoots?
unlabelledView post →I can't take anyone seriously when a new Marvel or DC movie comes out and they say "this is the worst superhero/comic book movie ever" when Elektra and Jonah Hex exist.
unlabelledView post →Mastodon fan discovers they did the Jonah Hex soundtrack and freaks out. Film at 11.
unlabelledView post →Imagine if we got a mid-2000s origin movie about him. In the style of Ghost Rider or Jonah Hex.
unlabelledView post →Not a very good movie but it might have been the first movie I streamed on Netflix around 2010 when they first started streaming, so it was an experiment. But it also might have been the Jonah Hex movie, now that I think about it. It did not stream well but not sure if it was Netflix or our gear.

The Specter - grind house horror Jonah Hex - Western Green Arrow - 80’s Action Movie (very diehard-esque) Blue Beetle (Haven’t seen it but looks like a Saturday morning cartoon)
unlabelledView post →Someone should make a good Jonah Hex movie
unlabelledView post →Loved reading Jonah Hex as a kid (along with Scalphunter). So disappointed with the Hex movie when it came out, though.
unlabelledView post →The "How'd you get that scar?" gag was introduced by Lansdale and has since become ingrained in the Hex mythos, with the "Cut myself shaving" answer making an appearance in the 2010 Jonah Hex feature film.
unlabelledView post →I was so mad at that Jonah Hex movie At that time I was really into the comics, had read almost everything, and I expected too much from that movie
unlabelledView post →One of the only good things about the Jonah Hex movie was its haunting and largely forgotten soundtrack.
unlabelledView post →We got that in the Jonah Hex movie for some inexplicable reason. Soundtrack by Mastodon though, so it wasn't all bad.
unlabelledView post →To be fair, "Jonah Hex" is technically a superhero movie by a very loose definition. It is also godawful.
unlabelledView post →This article is lined in the CBR piece, but I wanted to post it separately because I got to help out with it. Author Nathan Cabaniss contacted me, as he was looking for more info about a 1980s write-in campaign to get Clint Eastwood to make a Jonah Hex movie. 1/ screenrant.com/was-jonah-he...
unlabelledView post →Still hoping one day we’ll get a proper Jonah Hex movie. Maybe we can get DC / @jamesgunn.bsky.social to rectify that? Would love to see Brolin back. Such a good actor for the role.
unlabelledView post →I mean, I didn't think it was a great movie, but my low bar is Jonah Hex and most MCU stuff tends to slide just above that. Anywho, welcome to the new world. =^D
unlabelledView post →I thought I recognized Heather’s husband. He’s that pretty Jonah Hex from Legends. Not that bastard movie version. #TheLastDriveIn #MutantFam
unlabelledView post →Hm, if it's only ONE story...Jonah Hex. He counts as well-known - he had a movie, such as it was. (And to be clear, it would be the HEX version.)
unlabelledView post →Thinking about the best and highest grossing movie of all time pre-Morbius, 2010's Jonah Hex.
unlabelledView post →Translation: "#HellUniverses goes to the universe where the 2010 Jonah Hex movie was based on the character's comic book, which took place in an apocalyptic future!!! aheuaheuaeha" Frankly, I think they just made a better movie!
unlabelledView post →Now about this "Jonah Hex - The Movie", who had the "brilliant" idea to give him the power to talk to trapped souls in dead bodies? Was it Neveldine/Taylor? William Farmer perhaps? I hadn't read much Jonah Hex before seeing that dumb movie, but I was positive he didn't do that shit.
unlabelledView post →I want to see DC and WB attempt another Jonah Hex movie, but this time with no dead resurrection powers or Megan Fox. Just Jonah Hex being a badass hunting down criminals in the Wild West.
