Comments on: Mark Wahlberg Talks Aronofsky’s The Fighter, The Departed 2 and 3 http://www.slashfilm.com/2008/06/30/mark-wahlberg-talks-aronofskys-the-fighter-departed-2-and-3/ Blogging the Reel World Fri, 5 Dec 2008 03:21:15 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.5.1 By: BAD BOY ON THA STREETS http://www.slashfilm.com/2008/06/30/mark-wahlberg-talks-aronofskys-the-fighter-departed-2-and-3/#comment-469373 BAD BOY ON THA STREETS Fri, 19 Sep 2008 21:39:24 +0000 http://www.slashfilm.com/?p=12696#comment-469373 The Departed IS a masterpiece!, there should definitely be a follow-up to the movie, even though most of the characters from the movie were shot and killed or should I say "DEPARTED" Dignam and Alec Baldwins Captain Ellerby survived. I also think Brad Pitt should star in the sequel, since he produced the first movie anyway. He also was going to play the role of Collin Sullivan, but something happened so it is only right that he is allowed the chance to play as one of the baddies or as a corrupt cop or some southie thug who is somehow connected to the new bad gangster boss in The Departed 2. Brad Pitt hasn't played as a bad guy in a long time, since Fight Club. Edward Norton should also be a part of this movie, Robert De Niro as well and so many great actors, u name them. I believe William Monahan can come up with a very interesting, suspenseful cool story for the sequel. The Departed 3 should also be a straight sequel, not a prequel. Maybe the prequel can be made in the form of a book after the sequels are made. that's my opinion. Make the SEQUEL Scoresese, for all your humble fans.

Of their 3 fights, the very 1st one is considered to be the best fight of all time by many people and Ward DID win that one.

If you haven't seen the original Infernal Affairs film, you must be living under a f'n rock. The Departed is an awesome remake of the original but combining the two females characters from the Hong Kong version into one in The Departed was the dumbest mistake. Overall, good film. Sequels, bad mistake. The Departed sequels will be just as pointless just like the original Hong Kong-Infernal Affairs sequels.
