    Imagine going back in time 20 years and telling the people running Detective Comics Comics that they would make less money with a Superman movie than Marvel did with Carol Danvers and Rocket Raccoon, but at least the Peacemaker show was successful enough for a third season.

    Little help - I'm trying to remember an 80's or 90's action movie where our hero (probably a cop) is on foot chasing a bad guy down city streets and climbs up and over several cars in several shots. Any ideas on what this movie is? It's not "Point Break" or "The Peacemaker". Maybe Michael Douglas?

    Pat Boyette, best known to most comics fans for his prolific work for Charlton Comics (where, with Joe Gill, he co-created The Peacemaker), was born on July 27, 1923. (Boyette also worked extensively in radio, television and film.)

    Watched THE PEACEMAKER tonight, first time. It’s funny how a movie in 1997 that did okay business and fair reviews, over time, gets better with age. It’s a quite good post-Cold War thriller now, with moments of real intensity and interesting characters. I dug it quite a bit.

    The Peacemaker finale was unconventional. As I was watching it I was thinking "wait, is there actually one or two more episodes?" but nope; that is the ending. James Gunn is deliberately not writing any movie such that you have to have seen a TV show first, so maybe another series picks up with this

    I thought it was a big swing and a miss by Baumbach. Every character was completely unrealistic and they tried to play on sentimentality for Clooney's acting career for the finale, which included a lot of clips from like The Peacemaker. The last line of the film also made me audibly groan.

    While watching “The Peacemaker” (1997; Clooney & Kidman) I stood up, shouted at the screen “Where the fuck did he come from?! This movie fucking sucks!” It was a fair assessment. Biggest audience cheer: when the heroes remembered they had a giant damn chain sword in Pacific Rim.

    John Cena especially is an enjoyable comedy actor. His initial career tried to sell him as a pure 80s action movie throwback, and the Peacemaker TV series has a couple of serious turns, but really he shines when he's doing pure comedy, like in Blockers.
