Raging Bull II?!?!

Apparently Jake Lamatta is getting this film up and going, although MGM is suing him and trying to stop filming. The cast seems pretty decent with stars like Joe Mantegna and Paul Sorvino and William Forsythe playing Old Jake Lamatta (I think that's spot on casting to be honest).

What do you guys think? It obviously won't be as good as the original but hey it's a boxing movie and perhaps it will be decent.

funny how they're trying to sue the guy for trying to get another movie done about HIS OWN FRIGGIN LIFE

Perhaps it has to do with the naming of the film or something, either way it is reminiscent of CCR suing John Fogherty for "Old Man Is Down The Road" (written & performed by Fogherty) for sounding too much like "Run Through The Jungle" (written & performed by Fogherty while he was with CCR).

Wow is that true? I loved Creedence. One of the best ever bands to come from your side of the atlantic. Fortunate son is one of the best songs ever too!

As for Raging Bull II. For me it's the greatest boxing film ever and to make a sequel may just take something from it! Will this be filmed in black and white?
