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

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

suck out my farts, marvel

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

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

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?

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

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.

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.

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

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.

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

That costume looks fucking badass!

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

The "Leaks" Don't End With Cap:

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.

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.

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

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.

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?

No headgear of any kind for Thor?

He has the helmet.

guess not

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

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.

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

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

Nah, nature of stacked replies s'all.

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.

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.

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.

It's about time Fury starts shooting shit up.

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

Disagree.

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.

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

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.

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

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?

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.

nice

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

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

No way!

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

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

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.

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

that guy is a good actor

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”).

It's pretty girly to bitch about that, but I hate Thor's haircut. Should be looooonger for fuck's sake.

Why was a black guy cast as Heimdall in the Thor movie?

This is retarded.

Who?

Idris Elba

Idris Elba.

Hope they don't make him into "Token Black God".

:shifty:

Yea I dunno. It should be working, it's a problem with the link. I pasted the embed code properly.

It's a behind the scenes of Thor feature from Entertainment Tonight. I give it a big NAY, tbh

Except Natalie Portman. She is fantastically sexy, but the rest looks shite.

Don't really see much, except for Odin. Who looks pretty good.

I keep getting distracted by how it looks like they aren't actually in the same room as the black guy. It looks like he's in front of a green screen picture of inside a trailer.

That guy looks like Steve Corino.

Chris is probably the biggest actor playing a superhero. Guy's fit.

New working title for the Fantastic Four reboot is "Fantastic Four Reborn". Here's hoping that means they're work with the Ultimate version. Probably not.

I didn't see the first two Fantastic Four movies, but I thought they were the Ultimate version.

Nah.

WTF?! More reboots?! :mad:

FF could use it, though. Seriously.

I liked the FF movies. :(

I want to marry Natalie Portman.

Then force choke her, right? Gotta do that.

they totally boned.

I used to have this pretense that movie/TV couples must have screwed each other sometime during production.

Still kinda feel that way.

According to Entourage you are correct.

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.”

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.

Ghost Rider 2 LOL

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

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.

It can easily lose.

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.

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.

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

*nerdrage*

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.

no its on the dvd

Oh.

They should make a Great Lakes Avengers cartoon.

Just sayin'.

Great Lakes X-Men*

:shifty:

Great Lakes Initiative, get with the continuity.

Great Lakes Champions

Michael Fassbender has been cast as Magneto in Michael Vaughn’s X-Men: First Class, according to Hollywood Reporter. Fassbender played Stelios in 300, and Archie Hicox in Inglourious Basterds. James McAvoy has been cast as the young Professor X (see “Professor X Cast”).

Interesting idea.

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