How Is This Not Called Grosse Pointe Blank 2?



Here's a trailer for a black comedy starring John Cusack as a hitman with a line in dry wit co-starring Joan Cusack talking fast with a headset attached to her face. And this movie isn't called Grosse Pointe Blank 2? How is this possible? Was there some issue with the rights. Anyway, apparently it's called War Inc..

It also stars Hillary Duff looking incredibly hot and Ben Kingsley being all red-neck and character-actory, which is usually fun. One gripe though. This movie is set in Taragistan, a Middle Eastern country that doesn't exist. Why do Hollywood movies do this? They are quite happy to portray Ireland as a land of blarney and bad accents. Kid gloves for the Middle East? The terrorists have won!
