BREAKING NEWS: According to Empire, Neeson doubts a Taken 3, stating: “I don’t think it’s going to happen. I really don’t. I can’t see a possible scenario where audiences wouldn’t go, ‘Oh, come on…! She’s taken again?’”


















All Liam needs is a red headband at this would look like a Rambo poster.
I hated the fact that they re-use the whole “___ is about to be taken” line, but other than that the action photography looks pretty stellar. Both of Olivier Megaton’s previous films have been garbage, particularly Transporter 3, but he might be able to improve now that he has a decent budget behind him.
Did they just make the same movie? ‘Cus I could swear the premise was he gets kidnapped.
Dammi, he beat me on the joke.
I was going to say, “There’s only so many times you can be taken!”
Liam Neeson seems more unenthusiastic about it than the film-makers themselves. Not much confidence and positivity coming from Neeson here. Looks like the nail has already shut the coffin door on this series.
Liam Neeson might see the writing on the wall. Unfortunately, Besson assigned Olivier Megaton to direct ‘Taken 2′ rather than one of his competent directors. I read an early review that suggested the action photography in Taken 2 is as incomprehensible as Megaton’s other movies like Transporter 3. It’s a shame when Pierre Morel did such a great job on the first Taken.
