The Comic Book Film Thread *** SPOILERS ***

- No, they didnt and no where has this been mentioned
- You are assuming they are being rushed. You have no idea how long this has been planned for
- Its a DC movie, not specifically Superman. Its certainly a follow on from Man of Steel but Avengers was a follow on from other Marvel movies but you couldnt call Ironman, Hulk or Thor "secondary"
- Again, you have no idea what the overall plan is. Just because they havent released any details yet does not mean they haven't already made plans
- Maybe, but we still have no idea what the extent of this means. Its likely not to be much

- Yes they did.
- No I'm not. It has been rushed. It definitely was't planned before 2012. They had been trying to get Nolan and Bale in on it.
- It's been called a Superman sequel. That's what it is. The director has stated that.
- http://www.denofgeek.com/movies/30049/david-s-goyer-on-the-dc-movie-universe Goyer stating it's 'too early' and 'I'm not sure'.
- Doesn't matter, it wasn't an assumption. I sourced my information.

On another matter I've got a double pass for the X-Men premiere on Friday. Looking forward to it.

If that truely is the new batsuit then I am not a fan. I was hoping they would go with a more armoured look like the Arkham game series

 

[Springs]

The car looks fantastic. The batsuit looks ordinary. Looks like a Halloween costume.
If he does fight Superman like has been said then hopefully he gets some armour.

Early reviews for X-Men looking good.

So I just read that Channing Tatum is going to play Gambit in XMen Apocalypse. Way to ruin my favourite XMen character.

 

[Dutchy]

Why?

Taylor Kitsch was a good Gambit in XMO Wolverine.

Days of Future Past is awesome. They did a very good editing job with the complicated plot. It may seem overstuffed with characters but it mostly focuses on Charles, Eric, Wolverine, Mystique and Beast. Wolverine may be the central character but the main story is the relationship between Charles and Eric. The scene between young Charles and old Charles was my favourite of the film.
The ending is just fantastic for all fans of X1, X2 and First Class.

Spoiler: ending spoilers

Some nice cameos at the end. X3 and beyond is officially retconned.

Fan Bingbing is in the film for maybe 10 minutes and has one or two lines but that didn't stop her almost getting swamped by the masses of asian fans on the red carpet. How insane some people become for celebrity.

Stay behind for the end credit scene. A great teaser for the next one.

9/10

I don't know why. They already have a ton of stars.
Kitsch was fine as Gambit I thought. Would fit nicely into the First Class timeline as well.

Also heard a rumour that Marvel is looking at casting Zac Efron.

One of my favourite things about Gambit is that he always tries to pick up the ladies (Rogue mainly) and gets shot down.

Now, going on by the way my missus and almost every other female I know, no woman would say no to Channing Tatum.

I agree with the above, the last guy to play Gambit was good.

 

[Eelementary]

I think Channing Tatum is under-rated tbh. Because he's a good-looking guy, people assume he's shit, but he has charisma.

I recall people shitting on Heath Ledger as Joker...and he was phenomenal.
