News On Future Films Based on Comics/Paranormal/Sci-Fi

turning down 50 mill
eek.gif


that cant be true.. dude JUST did that terminator movie just couple years ago
 
They wanted Christian Bale to return. They aren't distancing themselves at all. They hope the Nolan trilogy helps bring in sales to this one. I guarantee the general publc won't even know they switched creative teams

Technically I still think they are distancing themselves. But you're also correct that they wanted to get Bale to bring in sales because of his association with the Nolan-verse Bats.
 
Bale being offered $50m was a rumor, same with Jackman being offered $100m to do 4 more Wolverine films.
 
If the rumor is true it must be a good feeling to be able to turn down $50 mil.....

Kevin Feige Talks More About Marvel's 2016/2017 Plans; Confirms NAMOR Is Still At Universal

Talking to Empire Magazine at the recent D23 Expo, Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige cleared up a few rumours and teasingly addressed the future of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. When asked when we should expect to hear some solid news on which characters will be filling those recently announced 2016 and 2017 release date slots, he said: "Next spring is when we really sit down and start to decide what we announce for 2016 and 2017."

So, in that case, it could be as late as next year's San Diego Comic-Con when we find out! Either way, Feige was quick to point out that he's still keen to exploit the popularity of the Hulk ("I think we have something special with our Mark Ruffalo Banner, and we'd love to see where we could take his stories"), adding that the Green Goliath will have "a significant role" in The Avengers: Age of Ultron.

Speaking of which, he's not the only member of Earth's Mightiest Heroes who will have a big role in the sequel. So will Hawkeye! "Joss has a great storyline in mind for him that shows a deeper side and further fleshes out our favourite archer."

Finally, Feige added that there are still no plans to introduce Ant-Man and Wasp in the movie, adding that when it comes to their next wave of movies, "There are three or four slots. We've got six or seven things going. We've got to choose which four will go. It's a Battle Royale!" Will one of them be Namor? Nope. "That's at Universal."



F!!!! Stop with the Hawkeye and Black Widow obsession! :smh:


Also, if Hulk has a bigger role in AoU, then he might actually get one of those slots as a solo film?

Clint Barton having a deep backstory, eh

Hulk getting justice, yes. Planet hulk film is becoming more and more of a possibility
 
They currently cant use half of the illuminati and hulk has no problem controlling his powers in ACU. Don't see how they can make a planet hulk film without those two VERY important elements. You guys might as well watch the animated planet hulk movie and call it a day.

Besides the events from him being banished to another story arc and jim coming back to earth to handle his business would stretch more than 1 film. Marvel simply cant do planet hulk justice. It wouldnt be any better than the animater film which was okay at best.

I think it is possible, they do not really need to be by the "illumanati" that sends him out, it can just be SHIELD. They are ready with him with his cage in the hellicarrier so they could have a more extreme precaution in A2. Maybe with a help from... AntMan! WOuld be a good teaser for his solo film following A2.

Problem is it'll be a full CGI Hulk doing the acting for majority of a solo Planet Hulk film and I am not sure people would be happy with that.

It would be great as the plot for A3 though and just further tease Thanos for phase 4 or 5. They can also further expand their characters but they'd need Sentry for it, I think Marvel has the rights to him. GotG is already setting it up to expanding the world to move cosmic being by introducing the Nova Corps and Ronan the Acusser and the Collector. Black Bolt wouldn't be so farfetch afterwards. Doc Strange is supposedly part of Phase 3 too and with that could also contain more magical beings? So I think they can fill out the spots here and there for a whole World War Hulk story, just loosely base it on that instead of copying page for page, Marvel doesn't really do that anyways, they just use inspiration for the most part.


I haven't really thought much about it so just throwing ideas in my head there but I think it can work.

I dont see why SHIELD would send him out. They use and abuse him all the time. I guess their writers can work on it.

Nova Prime is confirmed for Guardians. I defintely see a Nova Corps movie coming out by Phase 4. Inhumans would be the next logical step after Guardians. I bet we are looking at 7-8 Movies for Phase 4.
 
I don't think they're doing a Planet Hulk movie at all. Yall gonna keep hoping til the 2030s for that imo. They don't need all of the Illuminati to do it anyway. They can just add in Fury and BP and call it a day, by that time they'll have Strange going as well most likely.

Also the reason they sent Hulk off planet wasn't cuz he couldn't control his powers. It was cuz they were tired of him wrecking **** (this was when Hulk was categorized and being treated as a force of nature). They could always have Hulk do something wild to justify sending him away. They may change the story and have villains do it anyway. I don't see a World War Hulk film coming where he curb stomps all of the heroes and destroys NYC. There aint no Sentry to buy Iron Man time to defeat Hulk anyway.

I wonder what Ben gets paid for this.

If they really offered 50 mil to Bale and he declined, A, that's unbelievable :wow: and B, that's a poor move on his part, imo. Yet another reason I give credit to Jackman that he actually wants to do the character as much justice as he can and honor the role. Bale does his 3 and dips right when we reach a point that we've ALL been salivating over for years and years? :smh: I know it's easy for me to say Bale should do this and that, and the workouts, role, the costume and what not is a burden, but damn, 50 mil to do one last picture?
DC didn't want a guy to come in for one last film. They were always planning some sort of soft reboot of the Batman franchise to start a string of solo movies as well as the JL movie.

I'm fine with Bale leaving. Hopefully if he ever gets the superhero itch again he'll fine something he can be more involved with so that his acting muscles can really be flexed on all fronts.

Hell with Nolan looking like he's gonna be working with Legendary more he might do it there with him, away from Goyer, that way the other Nolan brother can write something better.

It was ppl in SHIELD that convinced Tony of doing it in the first place. This happened when Tony was running SHIELD after Civil War.


Robert has always been a shining star and one of the best actors of his generation. Ben has been mediocre with only moments where he has shown to be above average most of which that have been recently. Rob being down and out had to do with his personal problems not a history of bland performances. Comparisons don't jive but hopefully Ben is like a wicked ****** wine that's aging really well.
JGL for Daredevil :smokin

JGL should be Nightwing or Red Hood if they are going with an older batman
DC aint doing that and I wouldn't even want to see that.

JGL is good enough to be more than a sidekick/partner or super-villain. Let son shine as a superhero.

SHIELD always has a back-up plan of sorts and I am sure they can write something worth of sending Hulk into space, when Hawkeye attacked the hellicarrier and surprised Banner, Hulk lost control. Also, it could be as simple as mind control. If that is they're plan, they can make it happen.

7-8 films for phase 4 probably won't work, Marvel only does 2 films a year, making 8 films in between means 4-5 years before the next A4? Not only are the actors getting too old but they really can't let it lapse that long w/o an Avenger film. That is way too far in advance to think about though, I guess.

You seem obsessed with the Inhumans. :lol: I just want to see lockjaw. :D

The villains are just as important as the heroes and Nigthwing isn't a sidekick (unless you mean **** grayson as robin). I would love a Red Hood movie. The backlash at anyone else playing the joker other than Heath in a Nolan Batman movie would be 10x the backlash they are getting from affleck announcement. AT LEAST 10x

All of them are sidekicks to me and Batman imo should keep rolling solo. Teaming up with Nightwing isn't gonna help when he should be solo anyway. It doesn't matter who it is; Grayson, Todd, Drake, Damian. The majority are all just potential fodder for the story anyway.

DC/WB aint making no damn Red Hood movie. The Red Hood started off as a villain, then after Todd's death and resurrection he takes the name and becomes an anti-hero. Not seeing DC/WB do that.

Unless they're making the villain show up in every sequel then no, JGL shouldn't be regulated to a villain. Son should be the main star showing up in each sequel as things develop from there.

I'd much rather him slide on over to Marvel. They know what they're doing. If he's DD they can start there own Marvel Knights/Defenders line and if he's Doc Strange he'll most likely be the vocal point of the entire MCU as far as Avengers go from here on out and Iron Man is phased out/in to the background a bit.

When I said Red Hood movie I meant Red Hood as a villain. I know who he is. As long as David Goyer is the writer it would be a great movie and I don't need to say why. I never said it should be a batman and sidekicks movie either. They would be limited to appearances the same way Hawkeye was in Thor.

You want him to shine but you would rather he play a garbage hero like DD? The Red Hood is over 1,000,000x better than DD. DD is bad and if Marvel tries to reboot it they should feel bad.

This is coming from a guy who hates DC (and fanboys over Marvel stuff) cuz 90% of their characters a blatant ripoffs of Superman and Batman with the occasional gender swap. Bizarro, Doomsday, Supergirl, Superboy, Nightwing, Batgirl, Batwing. They are all ******g lame. Red is Hood is the only non batman like sidekick and they should take advantage.

NOOOOOOOO! Bring it back to Chicago.

lol if you think the few million dollars they will get from this movie will help a practically bankrupt city

Like I said I doubt they'll do one and they wouldn't make a Red Hood villain movie when they can just stick with Joker unless you want someone else to be the Red Hood.

I think he sucks major balls as a writer so I'm fine with you thinking you don't need to say why.

Spoken like someone completely ignorant about Daredevil. Don't let that trash DD movie fool you and if you don't like the comic, just agree to disagree cuz to me it'd seem you're not a good judge of what a good street level vigilante superhero is.

DD >>>>>>>>> Red Hood
The Red Hood is over 1,000,000x better than DD.
:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :stoneface:
DD is bad and if Marvel tries to reboot it they should feel bad.
They can feel bad making multi-millions off a DD movie which they would when they eventually reboot.

So you have a bias against DC but still have a terrible idea of the potential Daredevil has a movie franchise and at the same time think a Red Hood solo villain movie would work with the current regime of DC/WB, w/e man.
 
Also what current regime of DC movies? The ONE movie that is part of their current cinematic universe? I am sure they would need to bend over backwards and jump through hurdles to fit any character in. Would be practically impossible.
 
^Says the guy who likes Kevin Smiths writing.
:rofl:

At least we can skip that argument. :smh:
I never said I liked Kevin Smith's writing. I'd just prefer him over Goyer's typical trash.

Goyer is that bad but you seem to like that type of low quality writing. He only has like 2 or 3 good movies to his name and most times he tends to ruin franchises quality wise when he stays on for a trilogy.

Also what current regime of DC movies? The ONE movie that is part of their current cinematic universe? I am sure they would need to bend over backwards and jump through hurdles to fit any character in. Would be practically impossible.
The same regime that gave us Green Lantern, Jonah Hex, and a plethora of other trash and failed non-starts. I guess you're not paying attention or erased these abominations from your mind cuz they were that bad.

It don't really matter if they're starting over. You're looking for a solo villain movie starring the Red Hood :lol: at the end of the day.

DC COMICS HAVE TURNED LOBO INTO A MALE MODEL

So, you know how we often criticize the way female comic book characters are overly sexualized? And how some at DC were altered specifically (and drastically) for the New 52 reboot? Well it looks like it’s finally happened to one of their male characters. Ladies and gentlemen, this is your new Lobo. Hit the jump to see the full look and see a comparison with the old version.

It’s not a bad design from Kenneth Rocafort by any means, but it certainly isn’t this:

They went through a few styles before settling on this one (see them all on the DC Source Blog). The new Lobo will be explored by Marguerite Bennett (who we recently interviewed) in Justice League #23.2: Lobo.

What do you think of the updated look?
 
Surrreee.

No. Didnt care to see Jonah Hex. I can't take people seriously who thought that would be a good film. I doubt Green Lantern is part of this new DC Cinematic Universe.
