The sequel we all wanted Michael Bay to make.

Yup. Looking forward to it.

 

[Rocket Scientist]

Both movies were good. Looking forward to the next one.

 

[Instro]

Its been "in development" since forever, and I'm pretty sure Martin Lawrence is the one that always says its happening. It's like True Lies 2 and Tom Arnold.

 

[Rockyrock]

HALLELUJAH

 

[Death Metalist]

Excited for it. I missed seeing Martin Lawrence on the big screen hopefully this would be his come back in some way or form.

The sequel we all wanted Michael Bay to make.

But this isn't The Rock II....

 

[Dereck]

Donald Glover and Jaden Smith

Only in theaters Summer 2016

[Shaanyboi]

But this isn't The Rock II....

This. The only Michael Bay movie worth a shit

 

[-COOLIO-]

Fully expect a We're too old for this shit line.
Will watch regardless of critic ratings.

Bad Boys 3 |OT| We're getting too old for this shit that got real

 

[GK86]

Soooo worth the bump.

 

[Nabbis]

Should probably be named "Old Boys 3" by this point.

How Can Shit Get Real When Our Asses Aren't Real?

Bad boys for life? Life is a rooster illusion, bad boys are forever.

While the studio signed The Grey, The A-Team, and Smokin’ Aces filmmaker Joe Carnahan to write and direct, filming on Bad Boys 3 has yet to begin and, as such, one imagines that June 2017 release date was just too tight a squeeze.

As a result, the sequel—which will see Will Smith and Martin Lawrence reprising their roles—has now been pushed to January 12, 2018 and has been given a new title: Bad Boys for Life.

Another scene line the extacy gag in BBII and it could be. That one still gets me.

Presumably they're opening it in January because they are going to open it in a dozen or so theatres in December to qualify for the Oscars a'la American Sniper.


..., seriously though, opening Bad Boys 3 in the middle of January????

 

[PhantomZone]

Sequel ?
Reboot ?
Requel ?
Seboot ?

Hmmmmmmmmmmm!!

 

[HyperCroutons]

I can't believe I'm saying this, but this is a Michael Bay film I actually want to see! Haven't said this, well, since Bad Boys 2.

 

[Ninhead]

Carnahan is really great. This is gonna be good.

 

[NealMcCauley]

I guess Summer 2018 is too packed for a sequel to a 2003 sequel to a 1995 movie. I feel old.

 

[Gabriel_Logan]

yissssssss I love Bad Boys 2

 

[Palmer_v1]

Bad Boys and Jump Street crossover, please.

 

[BattleMonkey]

Real, shit has got

 

[Soapbox Killer]

It should have the area to itself, for the most part. Biggest competition would probably be week 3/4 of Episode 8, plus it's probably MLK Day weekend (so 4 day weekend).

 

[AxelFoley]

Bad Boys 3? Yaaassss!

 

[BlazinSkatinAxel]

Is Michael Bay directing though?

Nope and it looks like its call Bad Boys For Life good title for the wrong movie.

 

[Goldenroad]

Wasn't there interview recently where Will Smith said he wanted to be more selective about the roles he takes and wanted to be taken more seriously as an actor. Don't Suicide Squad and, now this, completely fly in the face of that?

 

[What A Time To Be Alive]

Don't care unless Will Smith drops an album with the movie.

We need it.

 

[Apoc29]

How did they not save that title for the fourth film: Bad Boys 4 Life.

 

[Scorpion Soldier]

Wasn't there interview recently where Will Smith said he wanted to be more selective about the roles he takes and wanted to be taken more seriously as an actor. Don't Suicide Squad and, now this, completely fly in the face of that?

After some dissapointing box office results his agent probably told him he needs to gain some more mainstream attention.

 

[Septimus Prime]

I don't know how good it could be without Michael Bay.

 

[sammyCYBORG]

Nothing will top the Reggie scene in 2 so why both.

"Shit nigger you at least 30"

 

[El_Chino]

I don't know how good it could be without Michael Bay.

Smoking aces was pretty good.

 

[Figboy79]

I'm a sucker for Will Smith and Martin Lawrence's chemistry, so I'm down with Bad Boys 3. My real issue with Bad Boys 2 is "Michael Bay Sequel Bloat." That guy cannot do a sequel with a reasonable running time. If Bad Boys 2 had shaved about 30-40 minutes off of its screen time, it'd have been a much better film. Some of the "banter" felt forced too, like they didn't let Will and Martin just play off of each other, which is what made the sequel work so well and still hold up today, even when Bad Boys 1 is low budget and cheap as fuck. Now I want to re-watch the original...
