When Your Career Is Over….

Filed under: Film Flickers > Vin Diesel

wenn50776002.jpg

Talk about a shiteous idea!

Apparently, Columbia Pictures can't come up with anything new, so they're resorting to making sequels…..of really bad movies.

The studio is now in discussions with producer Joe Roth to create a new version of XXX.

And to make it even better, they want to bring back baby daddy Vin Diesel.

The 2002 original was bad enough, why make another????

The second flick, titled XXX: State of the Union, starred Ice Cube and was directed by Lee Tamahori.

The third flick is said to be titled, XXX: The Return of Xander Cage. It has no script yet.

According to reports, Diesel has agreed to return, as has director Rob Cohen.

Funny that Viesel has decided to do a sequel.

He didn't join the XXX sequel which had Ice Cube in it - he was asking for too much money!

He also turned down The Fast and the Furious sequel, and instead opted for a cameo role, and he skipped appearing in the third flick all together.

However, now Viesel is returning to XXX and he's also rejoining for the fourth flick of Fast & Furious, which will be released next June.

Looks like someone is REALLY desperate for money now.

Hey, beggars can't be choosers!

    Umm.. Xander Cage was killed off (they used a stunt double for Diesel) in the DVD release [of the first] "XXX".. I believe that was done after they had chosen Ice Cube to replace him in the 2nd movie.. So how are they gonna explain this?? jeez.. LOL



  2. 2

    first!

  3. DALE says – reply to this

    Hey! isn't that mr. clean! He can always go back to scrubbing toilets.



  4. 4

    First and no he was in the 3rd



  5. 5

    I'm sure it'll be great. Huge box office hit.



  6. 6

    I don't care if he can't act, but I like Vin Diesel….



  7. 7

    He was in the third at the very end just for a minute but he did show!!!!



  8. 8

    he was in the first F&F skipped the second and cameo'd the 3rd. Considering it was the movie that brought him to fame - I thought he would be a little more proactive and be in the 2nd - whatever



  9. 9

    God bless America. Canadas closest neighbour and friend. May a state of mutual respect & cooperation exist between us forever. Vote McCain

    Vin Diesel is sooo sexy



  11. 11

    OMG, I have to say XXX is the only movie I have walked out of since the 70's



  12. 12

    THEY KILLED HIM OFF IN THE 2ND .. lol what idiots



  13. 13

    He should have been in those movies to begin with!
    I am VERY HAPPY that he's coming back :)
    Vin has plenty of fans, sweetie.



  14. 14

    who cares



  15. 15

    I remember when he was at the oscar's and the MC made fun of him and they could not believe Vin Diesel was in the front and Mickey Rooney was in the back of the audiotorium.



  16. 16

    Perez, i love you, but..
    it was the third fast and the furious "Tokyo Drift" that Vin made a cameo in,
    and 2 Fast 2 Furious was the movie that he completely skipped out on!\
    just so you know



  17. 17

    maybe it won't be too bad! LOL

    *******Aimee Muschamp fan forever**********



  18. 18

    hollywood=no creativity



  19. 19

    i love vin diesel, shitty sequels and all. id let him fuck me in an instant.



  20. 20

    I DONT CARE HOW HE'S COMING BACK AS LONG AS I GET TO SEE HIS PHINE ASS!



  21. 21

    He doesn't know what the hell to do with himself! His career will tank. I think he's a bad actor and very ugly. I wouldn't pay for any of his crap films. The only one I liked was Pitch Black.



  22. 22

    "The third flick is said to be titled, XXX: The Return of Xander Cage. It has no script yet."

    LOL nor will it have a script when opening in cinemas! A script would just slow the Vinmeister down since he prolly can't read anyhoo.



  23. 23

    He was too big for the sequals. Never bite the hands that made you famous!



  24. 24

    What happened? Did all the writers run out of good coke?



  25. 25

    i don't remember him in the 2nd, but he had the CAMEO in the 3rd @ the END



  26. 26

    maybe you should get your facts straight, perez! He skipped the second and had a cameo in the third at the end. He decided not to do the second of XXX or the fast and the furious because they wanted him to do the chronicles of riddick, and couldn't do all of them, so he chose riddick, which was a good idea!



  27. 27

    He appeared for a cameo in the third film not the second. Jeeze, I thought you knew this sorta shit. Psht…



  28. 28

    Vin is awesome and I'm super stoked for the next Fast and the Furious. I'll keep watching! Also, he was not at all in the scond, he made his cameo in the third.



  29. 29

    SO HOT!



  30. 30

    Yeah, because your career, Pez, consists of covering the "shiteous" careers of people like Vin Diesel. So even in a bad spell, Vin is still doing better than you careerwise.



  31. 31

    Vin Disel likes pink nipples in his mouth



  32. 32

    Re: Cottonquinn – Dude I can't believe you spent time even registering on here!!!
    I know I know it's Diesel



  33. 33

    He's sooooooooooo U G L Y!!!!!!! Why would any movie studio even want to hire him. Not to mention his acting skills are worse than Arnold Schwazzeneger…atleast he was believable as a robot in Terminator!



  34. 34

    I think your assessment of Vin Diesel's career is incorrect. He's not running out of movie offers. When that happens, THEN his career will be over. For now, he seems to be in demand. Babylon AD is still in theaters.



  35. 35

    Nooooo, Please Please Please do another "Pitch Black/Chronicals of Riddick" now that would be AWESOME!!!!!!!



  36. 36

    Wow, check your facts. He was in the first Fast & Furious movie and had a cameo in the third. They totally left the third one open for a fourth though. I'm not sure how they're going to pull of a vin diesel to ice cube to vin diesel thing for XXX, but its a cheesy action movie and they can get away with it.



  37. 37

    i am no fan of the guy but your info i all wrong…

    (fast & furious) diesel was not in part 2 because he was working on another movie, the cameo was in part 3 because he was unavailabe during filming untill the end so they asked if he wanted in so he did.

    no they are making a fourth one indeed and no comment on that ;) just wanted to let you know.

    all that aside, perez you rock!!



  38. 38

    I thin the XXX sequel should of had him in it it would of done better, He's in the fourth and I cant wait. I dont think his career is over just because your dont act in every single movie like a whore doesnt mean your not in demand.



  39. 39

    The man is HOT, HOT, HOT! Imagine that voice whispering in your ear as he made sweet love to you! I heard he was well endowed in the meat department to boot. PURE HOT! Forget the haters…. more for me!



  40. 40

    his old gay ass?
    one tired queen.



  41. 41

    Re: TylerDurden

    Vin is most certainly not ugly. Ugly is Marilyn Manson. Vin is ethnic looking definitely but not ugly.



  42. 42

    Re: smarty-pants

    Yeah, his voice is sexy. And when he wore nothing but a towel in that scene in The Pacifier…that alone made that movie worth the price of admission. You're right, all the haters be damned…Vin is plum manly.



  43. 43

    Well

    He's hot.



  44. 44

    So true ..those roles made him..I guess he thought he was too good for them..lol..well he can always do a pacifier 2.



  45. 45

    I love Vin Diesel. He can be in any movie and I'd go see it. Not for the movie content of course…just to look at his body for 2 hours straight. :)



  46. 46

    The Xander Cage (original XXX character) was supposed to be killed in the Amazon jungle or something. I guess he never died after all, then.



  47. 47

    yum
    this dude is my
    ho
    my bitch
    we did coke together
    and I appove this message.
    hilary who?



  48. 48

    Actually he opted out of the sequels to XXX and Fast and the Furious to do the Riddick Trilogy. He actually turned down more money for those movies than what he was getting for doing Riddick.



  49. 49

    Is it just me or does he look like Michael Phelps??



  50. 50

    I don't know why he's not doing gay porn. I'd pay to see him get the snot knocked out of his bottom.



  51. 51

    That's terrible! He should make a part 2 of The Pacifier, that was a cute movie….XXX sucked!



  52. 52

    SHUT UP PEREZ, YOU OF ALL PEOPLE SHOULDN'T BE TALKING ABOUT WHAT PEOPLE DO FOR MONEY!



  53. 53

    He's hot.



  54. 54

    His big mistake was dumping the first sequel to XXX in favor of the Pacifier. Now that he made stupid decisions, he wants to go back to another sequel of XXX and another sequel of The Fast and Furious. People forget fast; remember that Vin Diesel!



  55. 55

    Is that Corky…. all grown up?



  56. 56

    Not a fan. I sort of like actors and actresses that can ACT.



  57. 57

    I realize this has already been said but…
    Perez, you fucked up. Diesel was in the 1st Fast N the Furious, skipped the 2ND, and had a cameo in the 3rd.



  58. 58

    Actually he wasn't in the 2nd Fast & Furious movie at all and made a quick cameo in the 3rd one at the end.



  59. 59

    Just wanted to point out that Vin did make a cameo in the 3rd (of a horrible series of movies) Fast and the Furious…. meh He should prob get a new agent …and better movies
