NOt to sure bout the Wasp design but hey...could last.

[mitchables]

so cap gets fourth billing after iron man, giant-man and wasp?

suck out my farts, marvel

[dronepool]

That is what it sounds like to me too.
No complaints from me..I love that costume.

[Kalyx triaD]

That Avengers cartoon totally snuffed Cap. Sign of things to come?

[Rammsteinmad]

A lot of comments I read that claiming that it's loosely based on the film, in which Iron Man will be leading. :nono:

[Miotch]

How any of you can already write off the new X Men film when it has only just been mentioned is laughable.
You all got insider knowledge that no one else knows about?
Didn't you see the director with the good track record?
Well considering that there hasn't been a GOOD X-men movie since the first, is it really that much of a stretch to expect this one to completely suck as well?

[The Destroyer]

You didn't like X2? Welcome to a small minority.

[Kalyx triaD]

A lot of comments I read that claiming that it's loosely based on the film, in which Iron Man will be leading. :nono:

Unlikely, this cartoon was in production for a long time, way before any movie outline was around. The movie would be based on the cartoon if Iron Man ends up leading.

[Kalyx triaD]

80% legit. And if it's just a work based on the recent textual descriptions it's a) a damn fast, high quality render and b) something they should use regardless because it's badass. However, I have a gut feeling that this is in fact the Cap's costume.

It is, however, rather 'advanced' in a way - which raised suspicions as to which movies it's supposed to be for (a certain team-up maybe).

OR it could be some cool random fanart, what do I know.

[BigDaddyCool]

My picutre was legitter. It actually happened.

[Jeritron]

Given the shield, the chest emblem, and just about everything else he's wearing, I don't think it would be so ridiculous to include the wing emblems on the sides of the helmet.
I don't care enough to bitch about it, but to act like that's unrealistic and doesn't fit compared to everything else is pretty ridiculous

[.44 Magdalene]

Saw it on Kotaku. The pants look a little silly, the rest of it's fine. Do sorta want the wings back, though... helmet looks a little empty.

[Kalyx triaD]

Perhaps white wing symbols where they would be traditionally, not actual wings.

[Rammsteinmad]

That costume looks fucking badass!

Cannot wait to see what it'll look like in the actual movie.

[Kalyx triaD]

The "Leaks" Don't End With Cap:

http://www.collider.com/wp-content/uploads/thor_concept_art_chris_hemsworth_01.jpg
http://www.collider.com/wp-content/uploads/thor_concept_art_chris_hemsworth_02.jpg

With the render style being similar to Cap's pics, I'd reckon that this is Marvel feeling transparent about their next two big heroes coming to screen. The design of the hammer reveals that the one seen in Iron Man is the same (I thought that they were allowed to use an early prop). Looks good, and we can imagine better how these heroes will look together. There seems to be a stylish aesthetic between Cap and Thor, maybe to have them mesh with Iron Man better. Overall I'd say Cap had a better transition than Thor, but they both look good.

[Jeritron]

Not a huge fan of Thor's look there, if that is indeed legit. He looks a bit plain. In fact, he looks a bit like Magneto from the first X-Men film, aside from the head and hammer.
I would assume there will be another costume for his medieval armor? I would hope so, since that getup looks modern as hell.

[Miotch]

You didn't like X2? Welcome to a small minority.

X2 was alright I guess. The 3rd and 4th films were just so bad that I guess it taint's my opinion a bit.

[Fignuts]

I like Thor's look. It's kind of a cross between his recent outfit, and his ultimate look. They definitely look like they are being designed to mesh well, into iron man's semi-realistic universe, which is good.

Also, Jeritron, throughout most of Thor's history, a lot of asgardian technology and costumes have looked very high tech, and almost alien, with a bit of viking flair. So it's not really far off from the source material.

[Kalyx triaD]

Cap's shield and Thor's hammer are gonna go big in merch, though I don't think they'll hit Hulk hand levels. Where's those Iron Man Repulsar gloves at?

[Jeritron]

No headgear of any kind for Thor?

[Kalyx triaD]

He has the helmet.

[Reavant]

http://cache.gawkerassets.com/assets/images/8/2010/04/500x_thor_01.jpg

Spot on.

No headgear of any kind for Thor?

guess not

[Jeritron]

I guess the thing I don't like is that his suit looks so rubbery, as opposed to armor.

[Kalyx triaD]

He has the helmet.

[Jeritron]

What does that have to do with whether or not the costume looks rubbery?

I don't hate it. I just don't really like it that much. If the movie is good I could really care less, but it's underwhelming.

I really like Cap aside from the lack of wings on the side of the helmet, but that's very minor.

[Kalyx triaD]

Somebody asked about the helmet. Just wanna make clear he does have it.

[Jeritron]

I did. I had got your answer though, I thought you were responding to my next post

[Kalyx triaD]

Nah, nature of stacked replies s'all.

[Jeritron]

I'm curious about what Josh Halloway is going to be in all of this, if he's indeed involved. Maybe he'll be some kind of villain or side character from SHIELD or something.

Hawkeye seems like a strong possibility, but I had seen someone else mention that there was someone else in the running for that.

I feel like their biggest obstacle in this movie is going to be keeping it from being too crowded. I think they have enough on their plate trying to make a movie with a bunch of superheroes work. That's why I'm of the opinion that characters like Hawkeye and Vision should be held off on until a sequel, but if they can get it to work then whatever.

[Kalyx triaD]

I think they could streamline the whole thing by focusing on four main characters (Cap, Thor, Tony, and... Ms Marvel?). Have two lesser characters. One villain for the second act (almost surely Hulk) and a major villain for the whole thing (rumored to be Loki or Skrulls). I think they could still keep it tight.

[Jeritron]

Hulk as a villain is interesting, though if that happens it would almost undoubtedly lead to him joining the group.

War Machine and Black Widow are probably going to be the lesser characters. And Nick Fury of course.
Maybe Hawkeye could fit in there.

[Kalyx triaD]

It's about time Fury starts shooting shit up.

[Fignuts]

They should save hawkeye and vision for the sequel. If they are going to have any heroes make their debut in the first movie, they should be Giant Man and Wasp. Original roster. Adding Hank Pym also gives you Ultron as a villain, who is one of, if not the avengers' greatest foe.

[Fignuts]

I've said this before, but I think using Loki as the main villain for avengers would seem cheap and lazy, given that he will already be the villain for Thor. Most audiences will find it silly that an entire team of heroes is needed to take out someone thor alone will handle in his own film. Ultron is the way to go, imo.

Also, I think Hulk can start out as a villain, and possibly the reason they come together, but by the end, joins in, to fight the main villain of the movie.

[Kalyx triaD]

I'm fine with Pym in the movie but God leave Giant Man out. Way too silly, even in a movie where thunder gods and super-soldiers rub elbows.

[Fignuts]

lol Hulk and Thor are far sillier than giant man, come on.

[Jeritron]

I'd rather see what Edgar Wright and Simon Pegg do with Ant Man first, and then have him show up in the sequel, along with Hawkeye and perhaps vision.
That's really as far as I'd like to see it go for the roster.

[Kalyx triaD]

lol Hulk and Thor are far sillier than giant man, come on.

Disagree.

[Jeritron]

Well, they're better characters and seem more normal due to how familiar they are. They also have better names.
Almost all superheroes are silly. I think cultural standing has a lot to do with how silly they seem to us.
Tons of people would probably think Ant Man is silly, but Spiderman is perfectly normal.

[Kalyx triaD]

I'm just saying, giants are fucking stupid. Not attractive at all.

[Fignuts]

Giants aren't that interesting on the page, unless you have an awesome artist like Ivan Reis, but with modern cgi, it would be cool to see him in motion on the big screen, plowing through buildings and stuff.

[thedamndest]

Hey everybody, Fignuts thinks earth x is awesome. Eleven "o" awesome.

[Blitz]

Jeremy Renner is close to signing on to Marvel’s Joss Whedon-directed The Avengers movie, according to The Hollywood Reporter. They say Renner would play Hawkeye, a villain turned Avenger, alongside heroes like Iron Man (Robert Downey, Jr.), Thor (Chris Hemsworth), Captain America (Chris Evans), and Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson).

[Reavant]

so i walked into a comic store today and saw this comic called "Dark Reign Wolverine" was real confused because it was a wolverine with two claws in the back of the hand and one coming out of the otherside of the arm so it looked like a wicked tripod. He also had an arm tattoo and a mohawk. I guess its wolverine's son? This canon for the regular marvel universe or is it different. what the hell is going on here?

[The Destroyer]

It's Wolverine's son, Daken. He's been around for a few years and yes it's the regular Marvel universe. He took over Wolverine's regular title during the Dark Reign event.

[Reavant]

nice

[Kalyx triaD]

I hate Daken. It's the claws, can't get past them.

[Kalyx triaD]

Robert Downey Jr's been spotted in a Hollywood comic store buying a crapload of Avengers comics.

[Rammsteinmad]

No way!

[Nowhere Man]

Nice to know the guy does his homework. Either that or it's some new form of viral advertising.

[Jeritron]

Wouldn't Marvel provide him with that material if he wanted it?

[Kalyx triaD]

Many cases show writers, directors, and actors simply buying the material. Though yeah, you'd think Marvel would give him whatever back log he needs.

[Kalyx triaD]

That poor excuse for a rival from Jumper might be the new Spidey.

[Skippord]

that guy is a good actor

[parkmania]

Stanley Tucci has been cast as Dr. Abraham Erskine in Captain America: The First Avenger, Marvel Studios announced today. Erskine was the German scientist behind Project Rebirth, the experiment that resulted in the creation of Captain America, in the early comics.



Tucci joins Chris Evans in the title role; Neal McDonough was the most recent other addition to the cast, as Dum Dum Dugan (see “Cap Casting”).

[thedamndest]

According to Entourage you are correct.

[parkmania]

Twentieth Century Fox has offered the task of directing a Deadpool movie to Sin City helmer Robert Rodriguez. According to Playlist, the Austin-based Rodriguez, who was also offered a reboot of Planet of the Apes by Fox, but rejected it, is “considering” directing the X-Men spin-off.



Ryan Reynolds, who is currently shooting the Green Lantern movie, is still on board to reprise his role as Deadpool from X-Men Origins: Wolverine (see “Deadpool Movie in Development”). The fact that Fox offered the film to Rodriguez indicates that the studio is basically happy with the script from Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick, who penned the highly amusing, genre-bending horror comedy Zombieland (see “Deadpool Movie Gets Writers”). Reese and Wernick appear to be an excellent match for Deadpool, the fourth wall-breaking mercenary anti-hero who is known as “Merc with a Mouth.”

[parkmania]

The Hollywood trades are reporting that Nicolas Cage is in negotiations to return to the big screen as Johnny Blaze in a sequel to the 2007 Marvel Comics-based Ghost Rider film. Sony is in a hurry to get the production underway by this fall since the rights to the character could revert back to Marvel via a “use it or lose it” clause unless production begins this year.



The sequel, which is now titled Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance, will be based on a script by David Goyer and directed by the team of Mark Neveldine and Brian Taylor (Crank, Gamer). Neveldine and Taylor also penned the adaptation of DC’s Jonah Hex that is due to debut this weekend.



Sony’s eleventh-hour attempt to hold on to the Ghost Rider rights comes in spite of the fact that the 2007 film, which cost $110 million and earned $229 million worldwide, didn’t quite break even theatrically, though it probably ended up in the black thanks to nearly $100 million worth of DVD sales. Sony, which with the exception of Spider-Man has been able to develop any comic book-based properties, is hoping to improve its chances of profitability on the Ghost Rider sequel by keeping the production costs down.

[Kalyx triaD]

Ghost Rider 2 LOL

[Rammsteinmad]

To be fair I didn't mind the first Ghost Rider film, nothing amazing, but I could watch it again. If there's a sequel I'll watch it and eventually buy the DVD.

The main news here however, is a fucking DEADPOOL MOVIE!!! :D:D:D:D

[Kalyx triaD]

I have a feeling Deadpool will parody Marvel's post-credits scene to hilarious effect. He's in a marvelous position to totally rip the superhero movie genre. This movie cannot lose because of Deadpool's very nature.

[Lock Jaw]

It can easily lose.

[Funky Fly]

If he doesn't get those fucking swords out of his hands and optic blasts out of his eyes, I'll be a little worried.

[Kalyx triaD]

Been established some time ago that Barakapool will not be the star. Whether they will explain his change to classic 'Pool or if it just a complete retcon who knows. Almost certain they'll lampoon it, though.

[Funky Fly]

Good, because god help them if they fuck this up. :mad:

*nerdrage*

[XL]

I thought one of the Wolverine post-credit scenes was the "actual" Deadpool picking up/looking at the head of the apparantly cloned mutant 'pool!?

I think that was just a rumor.

Sources for Latino Review say Marvel's looking into an ingenious way to introduce crowds to its "secondary characters." Does "secondary" mean B-list? I'm thinking it does...

Got a scoop from a well trusted source that Marvel/Disney are looking at doing 10 minute short films in front of their feature length movies that will introduce secondary characters like Black Panther, Luke Cage, Dr. Strange, etc.

...says LR HERE.

I can easily imagine this happening. 'Twould be a high-visibility, low-impact means of not only exposing audiences to characters not as familiar as, say, IRON MAN or CAPTAIN AMERICA - and would also serve as an excellent mechanism for gauging public and fan interest in seeing those same characters revisited in a longer format.

LR pointedly reminds us to consider this a "rumor" until more information is gleaned, but it's a fascinating (and fun) idea that I'd love to see put into motion.

Interesting idea.

[Kalyx triaD]

Yeah, DC Animated is already rocking that. Can't hurt.

[parkmania]

Marvel Studios has assigned Thomas Donnelly and Joshua Oppenheimer to write a script for a Dr. Strange movie, according to Deadline Hollywood. Donnelly and Oppenheimer wrote the Conan movie (see “Ratner Helming Conan”) and an early draft of Cowboys and Aliens.



A Dr. Strange movie has been in development for a long time, including a brief period when Neil Gaiman was moving toward writing a script for a version to be directed by Guillermo del Toro (see “Gaiman Wants to Write Dr. Strange Movie”).

[Rammsteinmad]

To be honest I don't think Dr. Strange is a big enough character to really make much of a movie. I'd love to be proven wrong, but I doubt many non-comic fans have any idea who he is. However, the Dr. Strange movie from the 70's or whenever is absolutely awful, so a decent DS movie would be cool.

Also, just for the record I really liked the animated Dr. Strange movie from a few years back, so if it's anything like that I'm happy.

[Reavant]

Liam neeson = dr strange

[Rammsteinmad]

Liam Neeson playing Dr. Strange would be fucking sweet. Then again, Liam Neeson playing any comic character above the age of 35 would be fucking sweet!

[Lock Jaw]

Comic Book Movie's Bryan Kritz hears Hank and Janet may have already been cast. "A well trusted source close to Marvel Studios is saying that Nathan Fillion ('Serenity') will be playing Dr. Henry 'Hank' Pym. The actor is in final negotiations for a multi film deal that would start with 'The Avengers' in 2012. Eva Longoria ('Desperate Housewives') will play Janet Van Dyne as has long been speculated ever since leaving Marvel with a stack of Avengers resource material (that's comic books to you and me) in 2008. This would actually make her the second person cast for the movie, only behind that of Robert Downey Jr," he writes. He also notes it is unknown at this time if Hank and Janet will have superhero indentities or just appear as S.H.I.E.LD. agents. Of course, I'm always a little more skeptical of "well trusted sources" and "studio insiders." In the past, I've called them cover identities for Mysterio ... and really, why stop now?

Of course Whedon is gonna try to get some of his "crew" in there.

[Inadequacy]

I love Nathan fillion but I've never liked Hank Pym.

Aaarrgh

I like Pym as a civilian super-scientist who hates Mr. Fantastic, but Ant/Giant-Man is fucking lame.

[Kalyx triaD]

Alice Eve is in talks to portray Emma Frost in First Class. On wait, not the Emma Frost that appeared as an early 20s girl in Origins Wolverine? I guess it is more reboot than prequel. That will make for three sub-universes Fox is producing; First Class, Wolverine, and Deadpool. It's a step back into territory we're already used to, but it's an odd reversal that one continuity actually splits into different parts - in any medium.

[Kalyx triaD]

Marvel Entertainment, LLC announced today that it has appointed Jeph Loeb as Executive Vice President, Head of Television, a newly created division of Marvel Entertainment. In this new role, Mr. Loeb will work alongside Dan Buckley, Publisher & President of the Print, Animation & Digital Divisions, Marvel Worldwide, Inc., to translate Marvel’s popular characters and stories to the television medium, in both live-action and animation formats. In addition to these responsibilities, Mr. Loeb will oversee the development and distribution of live-action, animated and direct-to-DVD series.

[parkmania]

It looks like the stunning Alice Eve (She’s Out of My League) will play Emma Frost in Matthew Vaughn’s reboot of the X-Men film franchise, X-Men: First Class, which features a younger version of Professor Xavier’s mutant team than the one depicted in the first X-Men trilogy.



Created by Chris Claremont and John Byrne, Emma Frost (aka The White Queen) first appeared in Uncanny X-Men #129 (January 1980). Known for her dry caustic wit, Emma Frost is a telepath who made the transition from one of the X-Men’s most dangerous foes to one of its key members.



According to The Hollywood Reporter, the British born actress, who also auditioned for the role of Peggy Carter in Captain America: The First Avenger, is in final negotiations with Fox to star in X-Men: First Class. Eve will join a cast that includes Michael Fassbender as Magneto and James McAvoy as Professor X (see “Magneto Cast”).

Marvel Studios announced today that Oscar-winning actor Tommy Lee Jones will play Colonel Chester Phillips in Joe Johnston’s Captain America: The First Avenger. Jones will join a cast that includes Chris Evans, Hugo Weaving, Hayley Atwell, Sebastian Stan and Stanley Tucci in the Marvel Studios production that will debut on July 22nd, 2011.



It was actress Hayley Atwell who first leaked the news that Jones would be appearing in the Captain America film (see “Tommy Lee Jones in Cap”) back in May, but the role that the Oscar-winner would be playing was not revealed. It turns out that it will be a key one. In the Captain America continuity it was Colonel Phillips who recruited Steve Rogers for Project Rebirth, the secret experiment that created the Super Soldier who became known as Captain America.

[Rammsteinmad]

Sounds cool. Captain America is getting a lot more big names than I actually thought it would. I'm actually pretty excited to see Chris Evans as Cap.

[Fignuts]

Yeah, he's pretty underrated imo.

[Swiss Ultimate]

Anybody else notice that in Iron Man 2 Tony Stark had possession of the Captain America shield?

Marvel Studios has revealed that Dominic Cooper (An Education, Tamara Drewe, Mamma Mia!) is joining the cast of Joe Johnston’s Captain America: The First Avenger, which will be shooting this summer in England, and is slated to debut in theaters on July 22, 2011. Cooper joins a cast that includes Chris Evans, Hugo Weaving, Hayley Atwell, Sebastian Stan, Stanley Tucci, and Tommy Lee Jones (see “Tommy Lee Jones Confirmed”).



Cooper will portray the younger version of Howard Stark, the father of Tony Stark (aka Iron Man) and the founder of Stark Industries. John Slattery (Mad Men) portrays the elder version of Howard Stark in the current box office blockbuster Iron Man 2.

Jeph Loeb had a few general points to make about Marvel's new TV ventures. All shows will either air on ABC or ABC Family, which makes sense considering they're all under the Disney corporate umbrella. They'll mostly be looking to do one-hour dramas along the same lines of Smallville, and the key will be finding Marvel characters that lend themselves well to storytelling on a TV budget.

Origin, easy. But that's me. Also, some new Alex Ross art:

http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/.a/6a00d8341c630a53ef0134852f778a970c-pi

[Lock Jaw]

Isn't ABC supposed to be doing a "Fables" series as well? Hopefully they don't drop it in favor of Marvel stuff.

[Kalyx triaD]

Can't imagine why they would drop anything for it, especially with networks wanting to have a lot of the same thing on air.

[Kalyx triaD]

Chris Evans Speaks:

"It’s an amazing costume. Given the fact that his costume is red, white and blue, and it’s tight, and it could be kind of flash and over the top – and given the fact that the movie takes place in the ‘40s and ‘50s – they’ve done a really good job of making it look really cool."

"I think everyone that’s going to see it is going to say, 'Okay, well done. Well done. I think they got the costume right. The casting they completely ruined, but the costume they nailed!'"

In comparison to his lithe, skin-tight Fantastic Four costume, Evans says: “[In the FF suit] …you could move around quite well. This is a little more cumbersome. It doesn’t exactly breathe the way the Fantastic Four costume breathed, but it’s the way it should be. Any type of World War II uniform would be a little chunky, and I think that’s what kind of gives it its character.”

“We’ve been testing a lot of shields. Last time I was in London they had six shields and I had to hold each one, see if I was comfortable with each one, see which one we all thought had the right look. The thing is pretty heavy, so I’m not sure I can throw it that far! I’ll give it my best shot, but hopefully they’ll have some sort of stunt shield when it comes to actually chucking it!”

[Fignuts]

Alex Ross is so fucking awesome.

Having him do the opening credits for Spider-Man 2 was the shit

[Kalyx triaD]

Kingdom Come and Justice. That is all.

Edward Norton will not be reprising his role as Dr. Bruce Banner, reports HitFix, who say that Marvel Studios plan to cast an unknown in the part.

The report theorizes that a deal could not be made, despite Edward Norton wanting to join the ensemble cast that will include Robert Downey Jr as Iron Man, Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury, Chris Hemsworth as Thor and Chris Evans as Captain America.

Fuck.

Deadline New York is reporting that Kevin Bacon is negotiating to play the villain role in X-Men: First Class. They don't say who the villain may be.

This must happen.

[Jeritron]

lol at the kid cast as Beast.

Also just read that Kevin Bacon is in talks to play the main villain of the movie, whoever that may be (it's not Magneto)

[Jeritron]

Remember, Beast isn't blue at this point.

Blue, white, rainbow colored, I don't care. It's a Disney kid cast as Beast.

[Kalyx triaD]

I wanted Vanessa Hudgens for X-23.

[Funky Fly]

Blue, white, rainbow colored, I don't care. It's a Disney kid cast as Beast.

He might have talent. Who the fuck knows?

[Blitz]

Blue, white, rainbow colored, I don't care. It's a Disney kid cast as Beast.
What about him is Disney? Because he's a young kid?

[Jeritron]

I'm just not feeling the X-Men in high school approach

[Blitz]

Fair enough, but don't criticize the actor for it.

[Jeritron]

I didn't say he couldn't act. I was criticizing the casting decision to cast a character like Beast as a teenager. The Disney thing was more of a joke about his age.

[Jeritron]

I can't believe James McEvoy is Professor X...

I will give them Michael Fassebender as Magneto. He was incredible in Inglorious Basterds.
I'm just not very high on the idea of going as young as possible. I feel like they're really going for a Twilight thing here, which they'll probably laugh all the way to bank with, but shit on the property in the process.

[Jeritron]

Same with Spider-Man, if reports are correct

[Kalyx triaD]

Ya know the X-Men were originally a group of teenage superheroes. They met the original Teen Titans once as their concept were so similar.

[Jeritron]

They weren't originally a group of teenagers. They had history with Professor X that dated back to their youths (in some cases), but that was always the backstory and not the main incarnation of the X-Men.
If that backstory was exploited as the main focus of a story later on, then so be it, but it's not their original form.
That's like saying Darth Vader was originally a podracing slave.

[Kalyx triaD]

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/3/3b/Magnetodebut.png

I'm fairly certain they were teens, or at least young adults, even in their debut books.

I was always under the impression that they were adults in the Jack Kirby era. Prof. X and Magneto were certainly their normal age

Originally yeah, they were teens and whatnot. It's been established later on tho that some members of the X-Men (not just the original 5, mind you) have encountered Xavier in prepubescence. Storm and Jean Grey immediately come to mind.

[Jeritron]

I knew they had long histories with Xavier. I didn't know they were so young in the early books. Were they? That changed quickly.
I'm more familiar with the 80s and 90s X-Men.

Still, I don't think the studio's intentions are so noble as to be true to the first issues.

[Danny Electric]

The boy who's playing Beast is famous in the UK, he was in a series called Skins which is massive over here and he was the boy in About A Boy with Hugh Grant.

[XL]

But more recently got rave reviews for his perormance in A Single Man opposite Colin Firth and was in Clash of the Titans.

[Rammsteinmad]

I'm pretty sure Iceman was only 16 when X-Men first debuted. The other X-Men were probably between 19-23 ish...

[Rammsteinmad]

Not that I give a shit about his age, all this rebooting shit pisses me off, especially if this new continuity is being born from the Wolverine film, which is a prequel to the old continuity.

If they find a way to link First Class to the X-Men Trilogy then at least it'll make some sense.

[Lock Jaw]

I actually liked the various X-Men: First Class comic books.

[Jeritron]

Yea I eat my words about them not being originally younger. I honestly never gathered that. It didn't look it.
I still don't like the direction though. I feel like the intention here is not to be true to the origin comics but rather to bring youth to the franchise and take it in that direction.
Either way I'm just feeling the 80s-90s style of X-Men, which I feel is the version of X-Men that most people have wanted to see and has gotten them to where they are now.

I can deal with them starting over too. I think they screwed the franchise up enough after 2 that going the Batman route is acceptable at some point. I just don't think this is the place or way to start it.
I'd rather see them enter the story in the adult years, and just approach the material differently.

[Funky Fly]

I'm pretty sure Iceman was only 16 when X-Men first debuted. The other X-Men were probably between 19-23 ish...

Nope. The original 5 all graduated high school under Xavier. They were all teens, with Iceman being the youngest.

[Kalyx triaD]

Have a feeling Bacon will be Nathaniel Essex in First Class. I have absolutely nothing to back this up but my gut.

[Funky Fly]

Did sinister ever appear in First Class? I figured he could be a Lucifer flashback.

[Kalyx triaD]

Continuity? Go rent X-Men 1 through 3 as well as Origins and see what Fox thinks of continuity.

[Jeritron]

Is anyone going to say anything about the whole Ed Norton/Avengers debacle going on right now?

[Funky Fly]

Um it's gay?

[Jeritron]

Sounds like Marvel's trying to save a few bucks and slammed Ed Norton, probably to try to defuse the fan complaints.

[Kalyx triaD]

I'm surprisingly indifferent about it all. Sure I expected them to strive for continuity (kinda the point of their current agenda) but I guess it helped that I half expected them to downplay Banner for Hulk altogether anyway.

[Jeritron]

I think a recast is pretty lame though. The whole attraction here is that they built towards this super-movie with individual installments, so to cast a new actor in the role for the first time takes the whole thing down a notch.
It's not disasterous, since it's only The Hulk, but it still sort of feels like they'd be better just leaving him out of it altogether, unless they only show him in Hulk form.

[Kalyx triaD]

I rather they just use Hulk form if Norton couldn't be cast. Norton not making it makes recasting any of the other heroes possible (no matter how small). This is something Marvel should fight to work out. As you said is severely misses the point they were getting at.

[XL]

A recast would make it the third guy to play Banner in as many films. Shitty.

[Reavant]

the rumor is that joaquin phoenix might be bruce banner

[Lock Jaw]

Meh. I love Norton and all, but don't have a problem with recasting Bruce Banner.

[Reavant]

so far the heros in avengers will be:

iron man
captain america
hulk
thor
war machine
nick fury
black widow

missing anyone?

[Funky Fly]

If you're going by founding members, Ant-Man and Wasp. Gotta wonder if Widow will be an actual member or just one of the Shield liaisons but ends up getting in on the action.

[Kalyx triaD]

Hawk Eye.

Not really digging Loki's look.

[Funky Fly]

Well, maybe if his clothes were a little more golden and he had his little horn hat...

It's just not easy to turn his original look into something not retarded irl.

[Fignuts]

this

[Jeritron]

I think it's the alien look that's a big turn off to people. I know that has roots in some versions of Thor, but I think the majority of people wanted/expected the ancient looking Norse epic.
I suppose this was a decision based on what would translate best into the universe they're establishing for Iron Man and Captain America.

If the movie works, it works. I am definitely not high on any of the costumes or sets I've seen though.
Conversely, I'm loving everything I see from Captain America.

[LuigiD]

I am a bit sad they did not take the old Norse approach..but I am not upset with that semi-steampunk look they have going. Could be interesting.

[Fignuts]

Doing the ancient norse look would have been taking the easy way out though. As someone who has read all the thor books from his first appearance on, I'm very happy they are showing respect to Kirby's work by going this route with the visuals. Tells me the people working on the movie are legit fans, and gives me hope that the movie will be good.

[Jeritron]

Just looks hokey to me. I have not read all of Thor, but speaking from a strictly visual sense I'm not feeling it

[Kalyx triaD]

I dig it. Could be worse.

[Funky Fly]

Just looks hokey to me. I have not read all of Thor, but speaking from a strictly visual sense I'm not feeling it

[Jeritron]

No. Come on dude. There are more than 2 options. This movie could be bomb deluise. Who knows? I'm just saying that I'm not digging the look. Just like I wasn't when the first pics of Thor came out.
I feel the same about the Spidey and X-Men reboots, but I'm also not a huge pessimist because I look forward to and praise plenty of "Marvel news" that comes out. Not trying to hate here. I feel like most negative reaction in comic threads is taboo.

[Lock Jaw]

I wanted the horns at least in some fashion.

[Fignuts]

Probably will still get them. Thor's helmet is in and we havn't seen it yet. Possibly the same deal with Loki.

[parkmania]

Apparently Mark Ruffalo is close to being named the new Hulk.

[Funky Fly]

No. Come on dude. There are more than 2 options. This movie could be bomb deluise. Who knows? I'm just saying that I'm not digging the look. Just like I wasn't when the first pics of Thor came out.

I'm not coming down on you, it's just that the actual iconic look would be pretty ridic in real life. Marvel's been trying not to stray too far from the source material. There's really not a whole lot more that could be done, short of making them look like actual vikings, which would piss off comic nerds everywhere and probably not translate well on film, leaving casual audiences uninterested.

[Jeritron]

Fair enough. I guess I would be more fond of something a bit more medieval and rustic. It's all a bit too futuristic and Ultimates to me.

[Funky Fly]

Seriously, if some fruitcup in green and gold pyjamas with a prissy accent was threatening the world with mass chaos, most people would laugh.

[Jeritron]

I think the thing I miss most from Thor's costume is the helmet

Joss Speaks About Avengers:

I'm still writing the outline. I am at the stage where I am reworking and reworking. What I love about this is that there is no way that these people should be in the same room together, let alone the same team. And that, to me, is the definition of family.

He gets it.

[Kalyx triaD]

Jennifer Lawrence talks about being the new Mystique:

“When I got the part I dedicated a whole day to watching all three movies, and I really liked them. I was still a little worried, because I didn’t really understand the whole mutant thing. But the script cleared some of my questions up, and knowing that James McAvoy and Michael Fassbender were already on board gave me confidence.”

She had meetings with Vaughn and Co. in London this week. Today, it”s “I have to do 12 hours of prosthetics. Oh man.

“I have to take Mystique back to the beginning, before she became who we saw later. I don’t know exactly what I can talk about, but this is going to be fun.”

She says the prep work is physical, which knowing Mystique’s image, we can believe. Gym time. How does she look in blue?

“NOBODY looks good blue. Well, maybe Zoe Saldana. I am very curious to see how I’m going to come off in that suit.”

[Fignuts]

Honestly have no interest whatsoever in the new x-men movie.

[Funky Fly]

When does Fox lose the license?

[Kalyx triaD]

After their first bomb. X-movies print money.

[Funky Fly]

Is that the actual agreement? Sounds fucked up. Figured it would be "X amount of films or Y point in time, whichever happens first"

[Kalyx triaD]

It's been over a decade, man.

[Funky Fly]

Well, if they were licensed for say 10 films, it would take over a decade to put them all out.

[Kalyx triaD]

I was hoping the franchise would switch hands after X3 (as much as I love Hugh, Patrick, and Ian). Along with Spidey after Spidey 3 so they could be included in Marvel Films grander plans.

Neither happened.

[Funky Fly]

I mean, you'd figure they'd want to use the New Avengers somewhere down the line (3rd or 4th Avengers movie, maybe?), which means they'd need Spider-Man and Wolverine free to join the team.

[Kalyx triaD]

Or deals of historical proportions.

[Funky Fly]

Yeah, no doubt.

Or better yet, massive dickery involving lots of lawyersand broken promises.

[Kalyx triaD]

Hugh's gonna film Wolverine 2 next year, imagine he pulls some shenanigans and walks on the set of Avengers - in garb - for a quick scene. Fox would probably sue him and everyone involved, but the epicness can never be undone.

G4 will be the exclusive U.S. television home of four brand-new anime series featuring some of the most successful and iconic brands from the Marvel Universe. Produced by Madhouse for Marvel Entertainment and Sony Pictures Entertainment Japan (SPEJ), these four original series will feature iconic characters from "Iron Man," "X-Men," "Wolverine" and "Blade" in an edgy new anime world. These series will premiere on the network in 2011, it was announced at the San Diego Comic-Con.

"We are excited to partner with Sony Pictures and Marvel to bring these incredible icons to G4," said Neal Tiles, President, G4. "Marvel has shattered box offices around the world and captured the imagination of our G4 viewers. Combine that with the passionate following the world of anime brings with it, and we believe this project has incredible potential for the network”.

Jeph Loeb, Executive Vice President, Head of Television at Marvel Entertainment said, “Bringing Marvel and our characters to G4 is such an awesome opportunity. The size and scope of the animation from top-flight studios Madhouse and Sony Pictures Entertainment Japan is nothing short of mind-blowing. We look forward to the start of a beautiful friendship and can’t wait to see the reaction from our worldwide fan-base.”

Each of the four new anime properties - "Iron Man," "X-Men," "Wolverine" and "Blade" - will air as standalone series made up of twelve 30-minute episodes. Guided by multiple Eagle award winner Warren Ellis, the four shows will feature a matrix of interlinked storylines and shared guest characters that further enhance this intellectual roller coaster ride for G4 viewers.

Iron Man - In an effort to make amends for his weapons manufacturing past, Tony Stark has dedicated himself to building the world up rather than tearing it down. Traveling to Japan to build a new arc reactor that will deliver unlimited free energy to the Japanese people, Stark is challenged by the Japanese government and the media when he attempts to import the necessary nuclear priming device. And when the reactor-in-construction is repeatedly attacked by the mysterious Zodiac consortium, Stark must gather his allies to take on Zodiac and its mastermind.

X-Men - The X-Men are reunited following the death of a teammate, and are summoned by Charles Xavier to Japan following the abduction of Hisako Ichiki (Armor). There, they confront the U-Men, a lunatic cult that steals and transplants mutant organs to further strengthen their own army, and the battle for justice is on.

Wolverine - Based on the popular graphic novel by Frank Miller, the series begins in Japan, where Logan is challenged by Shingen Yashida, the notorious leader of a powerful mafia clan. When Shingen's employee Yukio, a female assassin, falls out of Shingen's favor, she must kill him or be killed. Teaming up with Logan, the pair seek out the villain to exact their revenge.

Blade - Eric Brooks -- known as Blade -- seeks revenge on Deacon Frost, the vampire lord who killed his mother while she was still pregnant with Eric. With all the powers of a vampire and none of their weaknesses, Blade's quest leads him throughout Southeast Asia in search of Frost, and, in Vietnam, he discovers a vampire plot that threatens to take down the whole world.
