When I was browsing imdb after watching Super, I noticed Kevin Bacon is due to star in this with Ryan Reynolds, Jeff Bridges, Marisa Miller and Mary-Louise Parker. Of course, the cast got my attention, but the synopsis sounds pretty cool:
QuoteA recently slain cop joins a team of undead police officers working for the Rest in Peace Department and tries to find the man who murdered him.

It'll be directed by Robert Schwentke. :clap:

Dead Heat did it before :redcard: Not original :laugh:

But yes, sounds like it could be fun if handled with enough black humor.

So basically it's Men in Black with ghosts?

Stills looks kinda fun though.

A movie kalled R.I.P.D with Ryan Reynolds basically screams for a movie poster like this:

Abraham Lincoln once said The trouble with quotes from the internet is that you never know if they're genuine.

Exactly what I was thinking... :laugh:

Looks like it could be good entertainment for 2 hours though. But it also looks like I will ultimately stick with Dead Heat.

Jeff Bridges is overdoing is accent a little though. Or is this basically meant to be his character from True Grit...? :headscratch:

I haven't looked into it, but I assumed he would turn out to be some famous historical lawman, like Wyatt Earp or something.
It took me a couple of watches before I could figure out what he was saying though.

Maybe carrying on his Wild Bill character

That's what many people said about True Grit as well :laugh:
