He was in Deep Blue Sea and the movie whose name I can't remember at the moment from lack of sleep that came out last year with Cameron Diaz and Christina Applegate.

The Sweetest Thing.

I hope dearly they dont F**k up The Punisher. Im sorta iffy on the plot.

I havent too much on other marvel movies, at least nothing I would take seriously.

I heard some dissappointing info on Ghost Rider, but its too early to see how they are actually gonna do it.

Actually, The Leauge of Extraordinary Gentlemen is from DC Comics, I believe.

Anywho, The Amazing Spider-Man looks great. The Hulk could be fun. Elektra is sure to rock the house. Ghost Rider should be great, since it is directed by Mark Steven Johnson. The Fantastic Four, despite Peyton Reed helming, could be exciting. The Punisher could be, hell, it is gonna suck! But....

Daredevil II is going to be one of the greatest films ever made! The first one certainly is!

[Etrigan]

My feelings about Daredevil has been wishy washy.

On one hand I liked it, nice little adaption.

On the other hand, Affleck is a hack, I'd rather of seen Damon play Murdock, since he can actually act plus he looks like the character.

And his origin...it was alot to take on that b/c your senses get amplified you become a martial artist...wha?

But hey what can ya do...Marvel is reveling in the success, what do they care of my petty little arguments.


Now im not a huge DC fan, since in the majority they can be lame, (not including wildstorm,vertigo or elseworlds).

But an Etrigan the Demon movie would be nice ;)

Then you need to see some more movies ;)

I only included League of Extraordinary Gentlemen since last I checked, it was being made by FOX, who owns the Marvel rights and released X-Men and other comic book franchises

eh i think daredevil was a brilliant movie overall...and i have seen a lot of films ;) i certainly dont think its deserving of some of the crap it gets...

mind you, this is the thing with the comic book movies, i think. you love em or you hate em.


in the case of batman and robin, its all hate. but if i am wrong, someone please own up to liking.

we havent had a lynching in ages.

:D:D

[Etrigan]

You are not alone there.

ugghhh I shudder at your mentioning of it.


I just wish hollywood would say
" Batman is a dark and cold person with a personality disorder"
then make a Batman movie without all the dumb gadgets and him angry and nearly manic with protecting Gotham.

[dindio]

will be making a Capitain America movie?
will be making a Emma Frost movie?
will be an Iron Man movie?
will be a Thor movie?

[Shockwave]

I want to see Iron Man more then any of them. I loved the character of Tony Stark being a brilliant scientist and billionare but at the same time he wasnt perfect, as he was also a playboy and struggled deeply with alcaholism and addiction. Also seeing the Iron Man armor flying around blowing up everything Terminator style wouldnt be half bad either!:D

[NotKeyserSoze]

While I'm happy that Marvel movies are making the big screen - and Spidey was at least impressive on first viewing, and some of X-Men still impresses me - I do think they're overdoing it. Daredevil, Ghost Rider etc aren't household names... and there's a good reason. Sorry, but I hated Daredevil, and for me it just signposted the fundamental, obvious similarities to Spider-Man and non-comic stuff like The Matrix. It stole from the Crow and a few other things. I just think that soon comic movies will have completely rehashed stories (we will soon be real sick of "origin story" movies, farting out whole new excuses to be superheroes) and will fast run out of "wow!" special effects. don't start me on the inevitable sequels, good original movie or not, they'll all be getting. the idea of Elektra bores me to tears, I'm deeply worried about the camp Fantastic Four, and considering X2 wasn't anywhere near my expectations (thankyou Bryan Singer for building them up), I'm losing faith in the whole concept.

no ones forcing you to go see them ;)

so far so good with the marvel comics to big screen transfers. there hasnt been a bad film so far. so i am pretty pleased with hows it turning out...

[masknslasher86]

I'm happy with the comic book movies. I was a bit disappointed with Dare Devil. I guess I felt they rushed it. I guess I was expecting it to go into detail of character kind of like spiderman. I felt they should of spent more time of him and elektra, more smaller fights, and longer villian fights.
I would love to see a Captain America movie since he was my favorite comic book charater as a kid.
I never really liked Thor.
Maybe Venom and Carnage should get their own movie.
I Think X-men 3 needs to bring Gambit, Beast, Archangel,and Cable in, I thought he was one of the coolest X-men.
Also I think it would be really cool if Hugh Jackman had his own movie as Wolverine and some cameos of X-men and maybe introduce a new villian like Omega Red or Lady Deathstrike.
Just some things I'd like to see happen.

[APzombie]

Marvel is making a shit load these days, eh? Lets hope they dont give up on comics though...

Stan Lee is also writing a new original superhero script specificly for film, no word on what kind of hero he is as of yet.

Wasn't there a Punisher movie in the mid 80's? Was it any good?

[masknslasher86]

Yeah it was with Dolph Lundren I havent seen it and I know there was also a Captain America movie too.

goddamn thats a lot of marvel movies...


with my limited knowledge of comics i can safely say theres a few there i am not familiar with...

[Zipperboy]

First of all, I'd like to say, that line-up sounds kick ass, I can't wait.

Next: I thought Daredevil was one of the worst movies I've ever seen. It had poor pacing, poor character development, no transition form past to present, in my opinion poorly casted (Sorry I can't accept Duncan as Kingpin), and worst of all they tried to cram way too much of the story into too little time. I think if it was the first episode of a series it's fine, but then (Spoiler) DD should not have taken out kingpin in the first movie and Elektra shouldn't have been in it at all. (end spoiler). Sorry, but I was flat out pissed off when I left the theatre that night... and my friends who i dragged there were even more pissed off at me!

I think the Spider-Man movie was perfect except it should be Gwen Stacey instead of Mary-Jane and I just don't like Kirsten Dunst.

Despite my complaining I have a lot of faith in Marvel and I'm really looking forward to every movie they make. I wish I kept up with the comics still, but I have to go pretty far out of my way to get them now.

[Iacon5]

Wasn't there a Punisher movie in the mid 80's? Was it any good?
yeah there was and it really sucked, his shirt didn't even have the skull on it. also i herd an interview where stan lee said that he would probubly only have a camio ine the first movies and he woulden't have one in the sequels. did he have a camio in blade?

I'm working on a Thor script as we speak, hoping to sell it for my fame and fortune. I believe after the success of Lord of the Rings, and the Gladiator movie, a dark midgard Thor movie would kick major ass, if I write it of course. That's my humble opinion. Problem is, who could play him?He's too awesome.

I absolutely agree.

[Negrotigre]

I think many just aren't familiar with daredevil, so you don't get him. Daredevil is one of my all time favorites, actually he is my all time favorite, right ahead of Silver Surfer and Thor. The Daredevil movie was a great flick, cool fight scenes, a little romance, 8/10 loved it!

[Negrotigre]

I read on Superherohype.com that Namor the Submariner(another persnonal favorite of mine) has been green lit, and they're planning a big budget release in a year or so.

The audience shouldn't need a lot of background info on the character before seeing the movie. I knew of him, but hadn't read a comic. But even long-time fans of Daredevil I know hated the movie

[Clarkey07]

I'm looking forward to seeing the Hulk on June 20. :D

[XCoRyX]

i think the hulk looks horrible and so do the majority of my friends too,we usually say it whenever we see a tv spot for it.

anyone care to let me in on what deathlok is about?

[Dead Halloween]

Damn, it seems that is official that Nicholas Cage is going to be "Ghost Rider". :mad:
Isn't him a little "old" to play this character?

It was also mentioned last week that Jon Voight is a a sure bet for the badguy. I wonder if it'll be a comic badguy or a new one?


Marvel also has movies/tv shows in dev for Scifi Channel: Brother Voodoo and 1000 Nights (Strikeforce:Morituri).

Good, then you may want to check out the Hellboy thread I started a little while ago. I just posted a link to an interview with Guillermo concerning Hellboy. 'Tis a good read

No, I'm stoked for this film as well. It looks awesome from what I can tell. Del Toro has put together a team of talented folks. Mike Mignola is helping supervise everything, and Rick Baker doing the FX and prosthetic stuff. Should be a blast.
