yep
people are sheep....
the last time they made money from me  was iron man 2...
no more... i prefer to keep my memories of the superheroes were in there original form in comics...
and not the version some dumbfuck hollywood director..who  KNOWS nothing about the character churns out...
eg
1 why was kingpin in the daredevil movie black
2 why is hemeidell in the upcoming thor movie black..
3 why does spiderman not use web shooters as stan lee wrote it and comice for decades have... why is he shoot web out of his hands..

4. why si thor who is one of the strongest beings in marvel universe punching a normal human full force and that human isnt coming out the opposite end of china... why make him weak


how does any of those fuckups enhance the characters or story...
movies like this shouold be bootlegged and copies sold on the street for there real worth..
next to nothing


Why ask why?
As far as Michael Clark Duncan as Kingpin, he fit the bill of a big mofo, who can act...unfortunately, there are no white actors out there...who were they gonna get at the time, KANE?
And even MCD didn't fit the exact discription---Kingpin is a BiG ROTUND dude, more fat than muscle---althogh he has been drawn as muscular/and round.

You have good points other than that...
But, many times they have to change stuff up for the mainstream---things that urk the fanbois like you and me. Like Wolverine is 5'4 and diesel, Hugh Jackman is like 5'11 and cut.


I tell you what, they BETTER NOT eff up the Deadpool movie....that is my shit, and if they ever get around to making a Darkess movie, they better not eff that up either.

The only thing that has changed is making sure minorities are covered in everything so no-one gets their vaginas out of place.

The thing about Davedevil is they made the black guy the criminal. But i guess a Mastermind Criminal is ok.

Not to mention the  fucking character he played is WHITE, they butchered that movie, a black kingpin.. WTF?!?!

Deadpool Creator Robert Liefeld Comments On Tim Miller Directing The Big Screen Adaptation!
Robert Liefeld, who created "Merc with a Mouth" along with Fabian Nicieza, shares his thoughts on Tim Miller directing the Deadpool adaptation. Check it out!
Via Twitter, creator Robert Liefeld shared some of his thoughts regarding Tim Miller, a director who will bring Deadpool to the big screen, in his own comic book adaptation.


"The Deadpool director, Tim Miller has an outstanding CGI/FX company, Blur Studios. Miller has all the instincts, tools and tech to pull off the most crazy aspects of Deadpool film. And Miller had to run the gauntlet, getting the blessing of writers Reese and Wernick, as well as Ryan Reynolds AND the studio. The Deadpool script calls for some CRAZY visual sequences - needed a director with extensive FX mojo. Looking forward 2 Tim Miller's direction.

Trust me, having read the script a thousand times, I had legitimate concerns over directors being able to handle the requirements of DP. I believe the DP film scared the crap out of some prospective directors. As a matter of fact I know some of them were intimidated. Seriously the action and direction imagined by Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick is crazy complicated. Think the best of Kill Bill, Matrix, Woo.."


With Ryan Reynolds still attached, Deadpool is probably going to start production this year.

Which ones are going to be good?  i vote DKR, and the rest will be jokes.  2011 lineup - Thor comes to America without his powers, Green Lantern has popcorn special effects, Cap America and a bunch of 1-liners and Xmen still refuse to get magneto right.   


2011- Thor, Green Lantern, Captain America, X-men First Class..

2012- The AVENGERS, The Dark Knight Rises, The Amazing Spiderman Superman: Man of Steel

2013- The Justice League, Iron Man 3



Also can they please caste people with muscles as heroes?  ryan reynolds sucks ass.

The Wolverine To Start Filming This October; Set To Be Released In 2012!
Following the announcement that James Mangold will helm the movie, Hugh Jackman has now let slip that the movie will start filming later this year in preparation for a 2012 release...
After Black Swan director Darren Aronofsky pulled out, the fate of The Wolverine was left up in the air, with many believing that we wouldn't see the movie until as late as 2013 or 2014, despite the announcement of James Mangold being chosen to helm the project. Well, not so according to star Hugh Jackman. Here is an excerpt from The Playlist.

Speaking yesterday to the hugely irritating Darren Osborne of the Toronto radio station CHFI about his upcoming stage show coming to the Canadian city, Jackson let loose about the plans for the comic movie. "We shoot in October, so it will probably come out a year after that. That’s usually around the timeline," Jackman said.

Untrue... This was true years ago... Not true at all in the current continuity.

Marvel Moving Forward With Dr Strange
Word is that the script has been handed in and a shortlist of directors put together. No names as of yet, but Twitchfilm reckon the movie is now on track for a 2013 release...
Seen by many as a second tier character in the Marvel Universe, Dr Stephen Strange is nonetheless one of it's most popular. And fans have been crying out for Marvel Studious to give The Sorcerer Supreme the big screen treatment for years now. Last we had heard Thomas Donnelly and Joshua Oppenheimer were brought in to draft a script, but aside from the likes of Kevin Feige and Stan Lee confirming that the wheels were in motion, we haven't had anything else solid until now.

From Twitchfilm..
Twitch has learned that Oppenheimer and Donnelly have now turned in their script and Marvel is pushing forward with the property. Marvel has drafted a short list of directors to approach on the title and is forwarding the current script to each to try and sign someone up to 'oversee continued development'.

If this is on the level, and you can pretty much bet it is, expect a look at that shortlist soon enough. Twitch feel that Marvel's commitment to the character means we could see the movie released sometime in 2013. Guess we shall see. Aside from Patrick Dempsey, no one has really thrown their hat in the ring to play Dr Strange. Who do you guys think would do a good job?

Laurence Fishburne Signing On For 'Perry White' In Zack Snyder's Man Of Steel!
Recent reports suggest that The Matrix Oscar-nominated actor Laurence Fishburne is the latest to join Zack Snyder's Superman reboot, Man Of Steel as Perry White. Check it!

The folks from Entertainment Weekly, as well other reliable sources, are reporting that Oscar-nominated actor Laurence Fishburne is rounding out the star-studded cast of Zack Snyder's 'Superman' reboot, Man Of Steel. Filling in the shoes of Daily Planet editor-in-chief, Perry White, the site states verbatim:

Lois Lane and Clark Kent just got their boss: Laurence Fishburne will play Daily Planet editor-in-chief Perry White in Man of Steel, EW has learned exclusively. White has traditionally been a hard-charging, old fashioned newspaperman, who relies on his ace reporters, Clark and Lois, to get the big scoop.

Laurence Fishburne, 50, gave an Oscar-nominated performance as 'Ike Turner' in What's Love Got to Do With It, alongside leading actress Angela Bassett. And hes also appeared in The Matrix, Mystic River and Apocalypse Now.

Like EW suggests, Perry White is the abrasive, old-school newsman who lords over the the Daily Planet. However, while Fishburne is evidently African-American, in the comics, the character is portrayed as a Caucasian. What do you think?

UPDATE: First Look at Superman Costume!
As filming begins on Man of Steel, Warner Bros. have released an image of Henry Cavill in full costume as Superman (minus pants?!) giving us our first look at the actor suited up and seemingly tearing off a vault door of some kind...
Well, I don't think any of us were expecting this to appear today! Regardless, Warner Bros. have unveiled our first look at Henry Cavill in full costume as Superman, in the first official still from Man of Steel. Many thanks to Twitter's @RIMBreaks for the heads up. Be sure to share your thoughts on this image by using the poll, the "Like" and "Dislike" buttons, and the comments section below!

Press Release

Warner Bros. Pictures and Legendary Pictures have provided the first look at the new “Man of Steel,” revealing star Henry Cavill as Superman in the film from director Zack Snyder. The film also stars three-time Oscar® nominee Amy Adams (“The Fighter”) as Daily Planet journalist Lois Lane, and Oscar® nominee Laurence Fishburne (“What’s Love Got to Do with It”) as her editor-in-chief, Perry White. Starring as Clark Kent’s adoptive parents, Martha and Jonathan Kent, are Oscar® nominee Diane Lane (“Unfaithful”) and Academy Award® winner Kevin Costner (“Dances with Wolves”).

Squaring off against the superhero are two other surviving Kryptonians, the villainous General Zod, played by Oscar® nominee Michael Shannon (“Revolutionary Road”), and Faora, Zod’s evil partner, played by Antje Traue. Also from Superman’s native Krypton are Lara Lor-Van, Superman’s mother, played by Julia Ormond, and Superman’s father, Jor-El, portrayed by Academy Award® winner Russell Crowe (“Gladiator”).

Rounding out the cast are Harry Lennix as U.S. military man General Swanwick, as well as Christopher Meloni as Colonel Hardy.

“Man of Steel” is being produced by Charles Roven, Emma Thomas, Christopher Nolan and Deborah Snyder. The screenplay was written by David S. Goyer, from a story by Goyer and Nolan, based upon Superman characters created by Jerry Siegel & Joe Shuster and published by DC Comics. Thomas Tull and Lloyd Phillips are serving as executive producers.

Currently in production, “Man of Steel” is slated for release on June 14, 2013 and will be distributed worldwide by Warner Bros. Pictures, a Warner Bros. Entertainment Company.

The official synopsis for Man of Steel reads as follows: "In the pantheon of superheroes, Superman is the most recognized and revered character of all time. Clark Kent/Kal-El (Cavill) is a young twentysomething journalist who feels alienated by powers beyond anyone's imagination. Transported to Earth years ago from Krypton, an advanced alien planet, Clark struggles with the ultimate question - Why am I here? Shaped by the values of his adoptive parents Martha (Lane) and Jonathan Kent (Costner), Clark soon discovers that having super abilities means making very difficult decisions. But when the world needs stability the most, it comes under attack. Will his abilities be used to maintain peace or ultimately used to divide and conquer? Clark must become the hero known as "Superman," not only to shine as the world's last beacon of hope but to protect the ones he loves."
