I just saw The Wrestler last night and believe the hype, because that movie rocks balls (review to come). After that, I think I’d watch Mickey Rourke paint a house (if only I had a time machine to five years ago). In Killshot, he stars opposite Joseph Gordon-Levitt Hyphen, Thomas Jane, and Diane Lane, as a hitman for the Toronto mob. For some reason that makes me imagine the following exchange:
DETECTIVE: He’s a contract killer for the Toronto mafia.
FRIGHTENED WOMAN: The Toronto mafia?
DETECTIVE: (Whispering) They control the moose racket.

Clayface plays a hitman.
I just came.
Rourke impresses the Toronto Mafia goomb-ehs by being able to smash an empty can of Molson just by letting it see his face, don’t ya know?
Thomas Jane and Diane Lane?
That’s insane!
I’d watch that one a plane, on a train, in the rain…
The Mighty Feklahr doesn’t get it…Rourke plays the Hitman, but the wrestling movie is already made?
*heads to corner*
Fek-
clap . . . clap . . . clap . . .
The Toronto Mob’s version of “sleeping with the fishes” is “skating on thin ice.” Because, it’s col-
Oh, hey Fek! Hand me that coloring book.
“Leave the gun. Take the poutine.”
Is Rourke handing out Chick tracks door to door in pic 1?
MIZ-there is only one colour left…shitdick brown.
A Toronto mob?
What’s that aboot. I thought Toronto was like New York but ran by Swedes…..
The Toronto mob controls the price of mayonnaise around the world.
FEK: “Look at me, Dave, look” and “Come and touch it, Dave.” –> so is Eddy curry the black HAL 9000?
I got kicked out of the mob for fighting dirty.
Honor among thieves…total bullshit.
A Toronto mob controls the worlds maple syrup.
The Toronto mob is run by Mike Myers
I got threatened by the Toronto Mafia once. They locked me in a room, played Celine Dion, and slowly dripped LaBatts on my forehead.
Bex-ROFLKOTAL! That was even funnier on this thread!
“Hey Mick, leave that poor guy alone. That’s not what ‘mountie’ means.”
I can’t wait to see Rourke deliver another award worthy performance as a Canadian hitman.
Toronto Mob Boss: Armand, I need you to go and take care of you know who. And drop him off you know where.
Rourke: Mmfffmmnfgmffmf (unintelligible)whisper aaggghhhafffrrrhem, eh?
And yes, I IMDB’d the movie to get his character’s name. Fuck you too.
The Toronto Mafia, or as they are known locally, La Cosa Snostra.
New up!
If I told you John Madden directed a movie involving hitting and Mickey Rourke, this would be the first idea that would come to your head.
This was a great book. If i were Hollywood, i’d go ahead and option all of Elmore Leonard’s books right now because they read like noir movies and he is kind of getting up there in years.
Why did they cut Johnny Knoxville’s part out of this?
this movie was supposed to come out in like 2006, then the weinsteins decided to make it gay…

Now, this might make me sound like a fucking idiot, but if The Joker is to be featured in Batman 3, young Jo-Go-Levitt could be the one to make it work.
Just sayin’.
HTFI out.
Directed by John Madden??? Well, that explains all the “BOOMS”!
