Is Guy Ritchie up to anything new?

I love both the movies Snatch and Lock Stock...., just wondering if he's working on anything new, preferrably of that kind of crime/caper genre.

Now that he is married to Madonna, expect nothing good to come out of him. He was working on Revolver but I think it got canned. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, as I'm by no means positive.

imdb.com says 'Revolver' was delayed because Ritchie is pursuing a film called 'Six Shooters'.

That's actually Snarf.


Anyway, I think Guy Ritchie's career got hurt by making a movie with his wife (you know who she is) that was beyond awful. I tried to give it a chance on cable one afternoon; it was so bad I couldn't make it through five minutes.

I know. What, you think I google-searched for "snarch"?

PS, when you do image search for "snarch", you get this...

(And for your own sake, don't image search for "snarf" with moderate safety search turned off!)

I'm not so sure. I mean, yeah, making that stinker didn't help. But if he made another underground-England film (or anything sounding vaguely interesting, for that matter), I'd be all up in that. Perhaps that's just me, though.

You know he made Swept Away, right?

I think he's a one-hit wonder, and will wind up recycling the same old film.

He might surprise me, but I doubt it.

I'd rather he stuck to recycling the same GOOD movie over and over, than branch out into garbage like "Swept Away".

I'm not ashamed to say I love SNATCH.

Judging by his BMW films short, he's capable of other sorts of movies... And he's great behind the camera.

I must be in the minority, because I felt that beyond the car crash sequence, Snatch was nothing but a lame remake of Lock, Stock...

I had trouble getting through all of Snatch, I spent the whole time thinking about how much better all of that stuff was when he did it in his last movie.
