X-MEN Origins: Wolverine


This is a perfect example here of the mythos. Heroes from villians. Classic.

SHOOTER



Markie Markz takes aim at the genre with the director of training day. This poster could be for this or the happening... Watch out for the trees!!

HAZE - TTHTKNTWHD is not just for movies anymore!


A video game that follows our theme to the T.  Song by Korn, Jonathan Davis...  The plot thickens.

FIrst Blood


CLICK TO BE IN AWE

Maybe a bit of a stretch, but I think this is in the pocket. They did train him to kill and then try to kill him. Oh Stalone.

La Femme Nikita


This one was suggested by D.Backs...  Can't leave the girls out of the mix.  Shout out to Eric on this one,  memba seeing this at the petite 3.

GLADIATOR TWO'FER Spartacus and Gladiator


Two great specimens.  From the Spartacus press release we find "They trained him to kill for their pleasure…but they trained him a little too well…"  Which places this securely in the our sights.  The film is directed by Kubrick so that's no suprise, but who knew ridley was one of the enlightened ones.  Yum. 

Wanted


YOU know what they did...  And You know how they want him.  The genre keeps on giving.  So much to learn...

SHORT CIRCUIT




This is from The Jimmer (The director of the upcoming badass doc called "FLOORED") as our first submission.  Great call on this gem.  Easy to overlook but important clue. Johnny 5 is truly alive.

SILENT TRIGGER

SILENT (mother grubbin) TRIGGER

FROM THE BOX>>

"Dolph Lundgren is a former Special Forces commando now working as a highly trained, heavily armed assassin for a covert government agency. But when a top-secret mission goes terribly wrong, Lundgren and his beautiful, but lethal, accomplice suddenly find that they are the agency's prime targets. They trained him to kill, now they want him dead."

RED SCORPION



RED SCORPION

Here goes a classic by the GREAT ONE himself.  HAIL DOLPH!  

JUDGE DREDD



JUDGE DREDD

Man I forgot how awesome this movie was.  I hope they never remake this one.

BOURNE IDENTITY



BOURNE IDENTITY
What can you say but yes.  This fits very nicely.  Several mysteries at work in this film, not the least of which is how this guy keep getting to direct action.  Hey Doug.

Welcome to 'THEY TRAINED HIM TO KILL NOW THEY WANT HIM DEAD" Blog.



Here in we will archive and praise all films that can be sumed up with that holy phrase.  TTHTKNTWHD (They trained him to kill and now they want him dead.)

We will start with a classic.

I remember this one from the drive in.  TTHTKNTWHD at it's finest.  Arnie's first entry but not his last I imagine.

 Post suggestions in the comments.
