^{WATCH THE TRAILER FOR TAKEN AFTER THE JUMP} 

Taken (co-written by Luc Besson of The Professional fame) stars Liam Neeson as some kind of hardass who goes on a kill crazy rampage after some thugs kidnap his daughter (who’s played by the annoying-but-not-as-annoying-as-the-Australian-blonde chick from Lost).  The script looks fairly paint by numbers, but this could be good because Liam Neeson growls like a lion, and revenge flicks always have potential.  After all, revenge is the most universal human emotion.  Or maybe it was love…  Wait, is hunger an emotion?  Anyway, I love to eat.  Touch my food and I’ll fuckin kill you. 

Opens September 19th. 

Note: Every time I watch this it cuts out at the 1:24 mark. I have no idea why it’s doing that.  Robots, maybe?

This is the trailer for Taken, starring Liam Neeson and that blonde chick from Lost, the only character that was almost as annoying as the other blonde chick.

A former spy (Neeson) relies on his old skills to save his estranged daughter (Maggie Grace), who has been forced into the slave trade.

It was directed by Pierre Morel who did District B13 and written by Luc Besson of The Professional and The 5th Element fame.  I don’t know if this will be anything like The 5th Element, but I do think it’d be really sweet if the Dallas Cowboys were renamed Corbin Dallas.  I just don’t think the other football teams could handle 11 dudes sporting bleached-haired Bruce Willis helmets. 

Also, The 5th Element is kind of a ripoff of Captain Planet, because if you think about it, in the end, the fifth element was really heart.
