It's a secret Marvel project. I'm not allowed to say any more, you're going to have to wait and see...I was with many members of the crew that were involved in Iron Man 3. It was lovely to see them again. It was great to be with this wonderful family.

Something else Mandarin related then?

Well... Trevor related at least. Perhaps a comical follow-up to what the technically innocent Trevor is doing after IM3.

Maybe just some voice-over work.

Would be a letdown, though.

Any chance Trevor actually some how becomes a legitimate super villain and just takes on the Mandarin persona?

Probably a long shot.

Yeah, while I liked the swerve in action (hilarious), there's a part of me who wants to see Trevor go crazy and become the Mandarin full time. It's an interesting idea in that there's probably not going to be any more Iron Man movies, but perhaps he could be a recurring villain for Agents of SHIELD?

And why would you think it's just a voice over? Why would IM3 staff be needed for that? More than likely Shane Black isn't involved, I'm guessing the people he reunited with was for make-up and more importantly costume, adding some weight to a Mandarin reprise. The MCU One-Shots offer Marvel an inexpensive way to organically react to fan reactions, and we did like Trevor/Mandarin. It's the kind of thing that gave Sharon Carter a One-Shot, and the concept birthed an entire TV Show for Coulson.

Paul Rudd.

PAUL RUDD!

Okay, it's definitely about the Mandarin. I will say no more.

Watched The Wolverine during my flight to the middle of nowhere. I actually liked Wolverine Origins more.

Third Wolverine movie looking like a go-go.

I disagree with Lock Jaw. The Wolverine was mostly good. I love the ending for it.

i liked everything BUT the ending...

I liked The Wolverine, but I'm just saying that I liked Origins better.

I don't really follow. I've heard Logan has some hallucinations about Jean Grey in this flick?

Isn't that film supposed to take place before the X-Men?

The Wolverine takes place after the X-Men movies. Wolverine Origins takes place before the X-Men movies.

Hmm, I probably figured it takes place before X-Men cause it takes place in Japan and whatnot.

SPOILER: show

This would be awesome.

He's kinda forgotten now but I remember him from my childhood as the ultimate Wolverine villain. Even more than Sabretooth.

Omega Red was tits. Hope the rumor is true.

Omega Red is my favorite!

Was gonna name my cat Omega Red when I was a kid but someone talked me out of it

That someone is not your friend.

There is no such rumor, stop that.

Every rumor starts somewhere...

Here is my counter point to that.

If it's good does it matter? I think if something is good it supersedes everything else.

He still looks good.

I'm more worried about McKellen and Stewart dying.

BURBANK, Calif., Nov. 7, 2013 – The Walt Disney Co. (Marvel is a known and loved brand that travels,” sNYSE: DIS) and Netflix Inc. (NASDAQ: NFLX) today announced an unprecedented deal for Marvel TV to bring multiple original series of live-action adventures of four of Marvel’s most popular characters exclusively to the world’s leading Internet TV Network beginning in 2015. This pioneering agreement calls for Marvel to develop four serialized programs leading to a miniseries programming event.

Led by a series focused on “Daredevil,” followed by “Jessica Jones,” “Iron Fist” and “Luke Cage,” the epic will unfold over multiple years of original programming, taking Netflix members deep into the gritty world of heroes and villains of Hell’s Kitchen, New York. Netflix has committed to a minimum of four, thirteen episodes series and a culminating Marvel’s “The Defenders” mini-series event that reimagines a dream team of self-sacrificing, heroic characters.
Produced by Marvel Television in association with ABC Television Studios, this groundbreaking deal is Marvel’s most ambitious foray yet into live-action TV storytelling.

“This deal is unparalleled in its scope and size, and reinforces our commitment to deliver Marvel’s brand, content and characters across all platforms of storytelling. Netflix offers an incredible platform for the kind of rich storytelling that is Marvel’s specialty,” said Alan Fine, President of Marvel Entertainment. “This serialized epic expands the narrative possibilities of on-demand television and gives fans the flexibility to immerse themselves how and when they want in what’s sure to be a thrilling and engaging adventure.”

“Marvel’s movies, such as ‘Iron Man’ and Marvel’s ‘The Avengers’, are huge favorites on our service around the world. Like Disney, Marvel is a known and loved brand that travels,” said Netflix Chief Content Officer Ted Sarandos. “With ‘House of Cards’ and our other original series, we have pioneered new approaches to storytelling and to global distribution and we’re thrilled to be working with Disney and Marvel to take our brand of television to new levels with a creative project of this magnitude.”

Interesting. Hope it's better executed than Agents of SHIELD has been, but hey, at least they're using the characters for something.

Internet TV Network?

So it's gonna be on TV or not?

I fail at reading comprehension.

Nah it'll be like House of Cards, season 4 of Arrested Development, Orange Is The New Black, things like that - streaming on Netflix only or so I would assume.

Oh. So it'll probably be kinda low budget I'd assume.

The good side of this is at least Jaden Smith won't be interested in playing Luke Cage.

Pretty big news if you are a fan of these characters..

I really hope they "do good by" Daredevil.

Really cool idea.

I'm interested to see how these turn out.

Not as interested in this as I am in HOURMAN. Still pretty interested, though. Looking forward to Iron Fist and Daredevil the most.
