that is true. My one issue with Supes is that he has quite a poor rogues gallery...There's Brainiac, Silver Banshee, Metallo, Luthor, Bizarro, Toy man, and God knows who else....I do think Supes would fit better as a series and not as a stand-alone movie.

Found this under 'fanboys' in fandango....

New Captain America Pics
This is definitely the ULTIMATE version of the classic character...

Ahead of its first trailer due out this Sunday during the Super Bowl, a few more images from Captain America: The First Avenger have appeared online. The images come to us courtesy of Empire, and they feature Chris Evans in a variety of heroic poses. We also get a nice look at Hayley Atwell with a gun, as well as Evans (and his bulging muscles) putting the scare in the character Heinz Kruger (no relation to Heinz ketchup).

Check out two images in this post and the rest over here.

Samuel L. Jackson Talks The Avengers, Plus More Cameos

While on the Jimmy Fallon show last night, Samuel L. Jackson spilled the beans by admitting that he’s filming cameos on both Thor and Captain America: The First Avenger. He has no idea whether his cameo will appear in the after-credits sequence of each film, but he does know that he’ll be asking both characters to join The Avengers.

He also said that he’s about to begin screen testing with actresses for an as-yet-unknown role that he describes as his assistant who follows him around the whole film. THR followed that up by producing a list of actresses who they’ll be looking at – including V star Morena Baccari, Jessica Lucas, Cobie Smulders and Mary Elizabeth Winstead, the latter of whom starred in Scott Pilgrim vs. the World. They claim Marvel is looking to lock a lady up for a 9-picture deal, so we expect this role is a little more important than just some random secretary.

The Dark Knight Rises DP Says Script “Will Blow Your Mind”

Speaking to the Kevin and Josh Movie Show recently (via First Showing), The Dark Knight Rises cinematographer Wally Pfister had this to say about the script for what has to be every geek’s most anticipated film of 2012.

"I asked the same question. I read the script two weeks ago, and he's done it. Plain and simple -- he's done it. It's a phenomenal script. He's still in the process of cutting it back because it's a very long script right now, but it's really phenomenal. And he actually had me go back and wanted me to watch, in IMAX, 'Batman Begins' and 'The Dark Knight' again. When I watched those I had read the script for 'The Dark Knight Rises' and was like, 'Dude, it is a perfect trilogy.' I think that was his intent, to work off those two pictures -- and they are very different pictures. And it's funny, we all had different opinions about which picture we like better."

He added, "Our goal is to shoot as much in IMAX as we can. We're going to put in on the screen, and put it on the screen big. And I really encourage everyone to see it in IMAX if they can because we're really going for it this time. In terms of the action, we are all scratching our heads right now trying to figure out how we're going to do it, how we're going to do it in the amount of time we're going to do it in. The opening scene of the movie will blow your mind."

Tell me that doesn’t get you excited …

How do people feel about D.J. Caruso directing a film based on the dark, intelligent, anti-religious, and irreverent series Preacher?
Read more here and here.

And here's the first look at the new actor playing Superman in Zack Snyder's upcoming reboot!

Discuss!

I knew it! There was no way Darren Aronofsky would do a "Wolverine" movie! http://blog.movies.yahoo.com/blog/933-the-wolverine-loses-its-director

by Count_Orlok_22 Posted march 18, 2011

LMAO! You beat me to this one. I was just about to post that same article. I wouldn't be surprised if Aronofsky went on to do another comic book film since he's been fighting to do one for well over five years. His reasoning makes sense between the earthquake and being away from family for so long.

I cannot even discuss this I'm so disgusted... Patrick Dempsey as Doctor Strange?
Johnny Depp, get your act together and stop making Pirates sequels. The role that fans want to see you in is about to pass you by!

Villain cast in new Superman movie: Zod again?!http://movies.yahoo.com/news/movies.reuters....-superman-movie-reuters

As for Patrick Dempsey...meh.

by Count_Orlok_22 Posted april 11, 2011

Yes, I know, I too am tired of General Zod. I'd much rather see Brainiac in a live-action film.

As for other comic book films, here's the new theatrical poster for Thor...

It looks cheesy as could be, and, I know, maybe I'm being pessimistic, but I don't think so.

by woopak_the_thrill Posted april 13, 2011

Not sure, I reserve judgment for Thor. As I've said, it looks like the "Ultimate" version of the Thunder God with the outfit given him by Copiel. The Captain America trailer does look good though.

New Green Lantern Images: http://videoeta.com/news/3210

by Count_Orlok_22 Posted april 30, 2011

Um, yeah, I won't be seeing that one.

by woopak_the_thrill Posted may 01, 2011

I hate it when they make Green Lantern look like some sort of metrosexual superhero what is up with that?!

by Count_Orlok_22 Posted may 01, 2011

I'm more annoyed with how generic the special effects look and how bad the acting is.

by woopak_the_thrill Posted may 01, 2011

why does Hollywood seem to associate 'fearless' to reckless and cocky and a jerk?

by Count_Orlok_22 Posted may 01, 2011

Good question, most male action stars are like that now, but nobody knows why.

by woopak_the_thrill Posted may 01, 2011

even Captain Kirk became that way in the new Trek film? I guess they're too lazy to develop 'fearlessness'?

by Count_Orlok_22 Posted may 01, 2011

Don't get me started on that awful Trek flick.
