For a movie called "The Fighter", I really expected a bit more fighting in it. And honestly, this is the lamest thing I've ever heard. Who the hell makes freakin sequels of movies based on a true story? Titanic was the second highest grossing movie of all time, but you don't see Hollywood makin a damn sequel of that.

I really liked the fighter i think the fighter 2 would be cool and interesting if they stuck to the arturro gatti ideas.

The Fighter wasnt meant to just about fighting in the ring.

...cuz they didnt show the gatti fights in the first one?

Dont like the idea, i just dont think they could show the greatness in the fights between gatti and ward in a movie

What was Micky Ward known for? The Shea Neary fight? No, he was known for the Emanuel Augustus war and the Gatti trilogy and I think if they really want to capture what the 'fighter' was about, they need to include those...

And, if they really wanted to boost blu-ray/DVD sales, when the Fighter II comes out, they could make it a major combo pack, including both movies and the Gatti vs. Ward trilogy on bonus discs (or even just the first fight which Ward won). I know I am dreaming but that would be something I would pay for regardless of cost.
