Disney's not going to interfere with current and even future Marvel deals with other studios, they will only increase Marvel's output by producing material for heroes other studios haven't picked up yet.

Nothing changes essentially, save for extra stuff.

Rammsteinmad 03-08-2010 05:57 PM

Hey Kalyx, sorry to go off topic here, but I was wondering something today that maybe you could help me with.

The Punisher and Solo. Have they ever teamed up or fought? I'd be interested to see it.

Rammsteinmad 03-08-2010 05:58 PM

This is solo BTW in case you don't know.

From Marvelousnews.com:

Quote:

Here is the official movie synopsis for the Kenneth Brannagh directed Thor.

"Paramount Pictures and Marvel Entertainment present the epic adventure, "Thor", which spans the Marvel Universe from present day Earth to the realm of Asgard. At the center of the story is the mighty Thor (Chris Hemsworth), a powerful but arrogant warrior whose reckless actions reignite an ancient war. Thor is cast down to Earth by his father Odin (Anthony Hopkins) and is forced to live among humans. A beautiful, young scientist, Jane Foster (Natalie Portman), has a profound effect on Thor, as she ultimately becomes his first love. It’s while here on Earth that Thor learns what it takes to be a true hero when the most dangerous villain of his world sends the darkest forces of Asgard to invade Earth."

Staring Chris Hemsworth,Tom Hiddleston,Anthony Hopkins, Rene Russo,Natalie Portman and Stellan Skarsgard, Thor is slated to open in theatres on May 6,2011.

No, he's been underused in the Marvel Universe. He has interacted with many of Marvel's 'gritty' characters which makes his never meeting Punisher kind of odd. I don't like him, seems overly derivative.

Fignuts 03-10-2010 01:01 AM

Seems like a punisher rip-off.

He kind of looks like the answer to the following question:

What do you get when you Cross the Punisher with Conan Obrien?

Fignuts 03-10-2010 01:30 AM

and the 90's

Funky Fly 03-10-2010 06:57 AM

Yeah. I'm amazed he wasn't called Riptooth or Bloodclaw. Fuckin' 90s.

Rammsteinmad 03-10-2010 08:20 AM

Just for the record, I'm not a 'fan' of Solo or anything, I mean he pops up now and then and he seems alright, just kinda always thought he'd have met the Punisher by now.

The Destroyer 03-10-2010 09:48 AM

I haven't seen Solo in anything for years.

Reavant 03-10-2010 01:19 PM

wasnt there a movie called 'Solo' in the early 90's?

parkmania 03-10-2010 08:38 PM

I think so, starring Mario Peebles or somesuch.

parkmania 03-10-2010 08:39 PM

Enter Captain America:

The question of who will wield the shield is one of the most intriguing casting mysteries in contemporary Hollywood. It appears that Marvel has narrowed the field down quite a bit, though it is still unclear whether the studio will decide to go with a relative unknown or someone with a modest resume like Chris Evans (the Human Torch in the FF movies). The success that directors like J.J. Abrams who chose Chris Pine for Star Trek and James Cameron who went with Sam Worthington for Avatar have enjoyed certainly tends to indicate that casting unknown actors is no deterrent to creating a box office bonanza.



According to Borys Kit of The Hollywood Reporter, Marvel has already crossed a number of names off the well publicized list of Captain America wannabes (see “Captain America Casting Underway”) including John Krasinski (The Office), Michael Cassidy (Smallville), and Chace Crawford (Gossip Girl). Actors who are “still in the running” include Wilson Bethel who starred in HBO’s Generation Kill and is currently appearing in the Young and the Restless, Mike Vogel (Cloverfield), Garrett Hedlund (Four Brothers, Tron Legacy), and Chris Evans, who is currently shooting the movie Safety Point in Texas.



According to The Reporter, Marvel Studios wants to sign its Captain America to a 9-picture deal, with The Avengers film being the second movie. The Captain America movie is set to debut on July 22, 2011.

Reavant 03-10-2010 11:49 PM

Sam worthington would be a sweet captain america btw

Lock Jaw 03-11-2010 02:09 AM

I'm picturing Jim from The Office as Captain America and laughing.

Funky Fly 03-11-2010 08:22 AM

How is Chris Evans in the running? I've only ever seen him play douchebags. He would have made a great Human Torch, had the FF movie not been a total abortion in the first place.

The Destroyer 03-11-2010 08:24 AM

Too much Deadpool. He really does not need 4 ongoing series.

Apparently two of the Jonas Brothers want to play Cap as well. Just as well that'll never happen.

Reavant 03-11-2010 10:31 AM

why on earth is there a deadpool with lightsabers and a dog deadpool?

Rammsteinmad 03-11-2010 11:13 AM

They wanna make 9 Captain America movies wtf?! The actor will be 60 by the time they're all done.

Unless, it's cameos etc.

Jon Kano 03-11-2010 01:14 PM

I am not all that informed on Marvel, its stories, comics or characters - but as a fan of the X-Men cartoon, and in turn these movies in general, I am someone who fails to see any actual appeal in a Captain America film, I mean the character looks pretty out dated and seems to have only served as a good character/story for 'back in the day'. I just don't see the appeal in a film being made, pretty sure there are other better characters and stories to make. Would the film be set in the past or modern day?

Lock Jaw 03-11-2010 01:16 PM

Captain America rules. Probably my favorite Marvel character.

I think the film is set in the past but ends up in the modern day? Too lazy to go check.

I wasn't a Cap fan either, until Ed Brubaker took over writing it a couple years ago. Now it's my favorite book.

They're from alternate universes. Marvel's leading up to a Deadpool Corps miniseries.

Fignuts 03-11-2010 02:29 PM

I read a couple issues with the multiple deadpools, and it was hilarious.

dronepool 03-11-2010 03:38 PM

Too much Deadpool? I love him, and I agree (due to trying to get everything he's in has became mundane because it isn't a treat anymore) but I'm not pissed about it. I'm happy for him. I liked that character since like 1997 when he wasn't that big. When I got back into reading comics 3 years ago, I was so glad to see Cable & Deadpool- I was like "oh shit! Deadpool's has another book"


But just look at how many books Spider-Man, Batman, Superman are in. Deadpool is simply "hot" right now and Marvel is just being capitalist and cashing in on his cult-fueled rise to fame. I NEVER thought I'd see 4 on goings from him. But chances are, going by the sales- there will only probably be 2 main books left after the storm.

Check out the oath for the DP Corps-

"Through Lightest Dark or Darkest Light, Don't need no Bling to join the Fight, Were Mercs with Mouths and so much more, Yippee Ki Yay were the Deadpool Corps!!"


And

Lettered preview of siege #3!

CLANG

Shadow 03-11-2010 09:20 PM

That was awesome.

Jon Kano 03-11-2010 09:27 PM

looks too much like Spiderman.

For some reason I think the Noob Saibot look would work for him.

Fignuts 03-12-2010 12:40 AM

No way. Deadpool costume is tight. Besides, once you read even one issue, you'll never confuse him with spider-man again.

There was an issue of Deadpool where he travels back in time and they take an old issue of Spider-Man and recolour Spider-Man to be Deadpool and change all the dialog. Fucking hilarious.

Inadequacy 03-12-2010 07:10 AM

I remember the deadpool cameo in spider-man a few months ago and one part where he thinks to himself "People have lways thought you were just a spider-man knockoff. Kill him now and you can finally add the blue to the costume"

It is from this site called passfailstudios.com

They made a comic-parody comic for awhile and then disappeared.

Kalyx triaD 03-12-2010 08:05 PM

Why, why Do You Persist, Mr. America?:

Hugo fucking Weaving will be announced as the Red Skull very shortly.
