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

Ultimates F4 are much younger so there is a source material where they are young, it isn't exactly disrespect.

So does that mean if this does well and becomes a franchise, there's a possibility of me seeing Evil Reed Richards? I'm in.
 
I thought some characters being too young killed the xmen movies. Baby rouge, acne iceman? Pass.

Young does not mean good
 
'Doctor Strange' Heating Up as Marvel Vets Directors (Exclusive)

Among the filmmakers being eyed are Mark Andrews, Jonathan Levine, Nikolaj Arcel and Dean Israelite.

With Ant-Man in preproduction mode with casting well underway and the marketing rollout for Guardian of the Galaxy off to a rip-roaring start, Marvel Studios is tackling its next challenge: conjuring up the filmmaker for Doctor Strange.

Four contenders in particular have either met or are about to meet with Marvel higher-ups to bring the adventures of Marvel's Sorcerer Supreme to the screen: Mark Andrews, who co-wrote and co-directed Pixar's Brave; Nikolaj Arcel, who wrote and directed last year's best foreign film Oscar-nominated entry A Royal Affair; Dean Israelite, the helmer behind Paramount's upcoming sci-fi time-travel movie Welcome to Yesterday; and Jonathan Levine, the filmmaker behind Warm Bodies and 50/50.

Jon Aibel and Glenn Berger, the writers behind the Kung Fu Panda movies, are also in the mix, not to direct the movie but to pen the screenplay.

Marvel is looking to hire both a writer and a filmmaker to work in tandem, or a filmmaker who can do both tasks as it focuses on the hero first created by Stan Lee and Steve Ditko in the pages of 1963's Strange Tales No. 110.

Doctor Strange was conceived as an arrogant and selfish surgeon whose hands are damaged in a car accident. After all conventional healing methods fail, he travels to Tibet as a last-ditch effort to find a cure at the hands of a man known as the Ancient One. In an act of benevolence, Strange saves the man from the Ancient One's power-hungry disciple Baron Mordo, thus becoming the magical art's new hero.

The hero's screen appearances so far have been limited to cartoons, but he did get his own TV movie/pilot in 1978.

Marvel Studios has been working on and off on this project for several years and previously was working from an origin story draft by Joshua Oppenheimer and Thomas Dean Donnelly.

One of the challenges facing the company is making the supernatural elements mesh in a convincing way with the hi-tech and grounded elements established in movies such as Iron Man and The Avengers.

Also needing a steady hand is incorporating Strange's more outre elements, including his colorful costume and accoutrements, such as his amulet Eye of Agamotto.

Will Smith Eyes Sci-Fi Superhero Tale Brilliance

Will Smith is targeting Universal and Legendary Pictures' upcoming adaptation of Marcus Sakey's sci-fi/superhero novel Brilliance. The Wrap reports that Smith would play the lead role of Federal Agent Nick Cooper in the big screen version, to be directed by Julius Onah with a script by David Koepp.

The original book, published last year, is officially described as follows:

In Wyoming, a little girl reads people’s darkest secrets by the way they fold their arms. In New York, a man sensing patterns in the stock market racks up $300 billion. In Chicago, a woman can go invisible by being where no one is looking. They’re called “brilliants,” and since 1980, one percent of people have been born this way. Nick Cooper is among them; a federal agent, Cooper has gifts rendering him exceptional at hunting terrorists. His latest target may be the most dangerous man alive, a brilliant drenched in blood and intent on provoking civil war. But to catch him, Cooper will have to violate everything he believes in—and betray his own kind.
 
Ready to see the Eye of Agamotto on the big screen. I'm almost guaranteeing Johnny Depp will be Stephen Strange...

Johnny Storm is black in a couple alt universes off the past 10 years of comics. The recent F4/FF books had a black Sue Richards and Johnny (but Johnny was all ****** up so you couldn't tell he was black).

If he is then all young actors in Hollywood suck.


Also to your other post I don't agree with the idea that just cuz everybody is young (even the director) this will be great. Youth does not equal quality.


Images? Couldn't find anything on Wiki about this.
The black Sue Storm (or tanned) is from the recent Matt Fraction Fantastic 4 comic in the later issues coming to the end of that run. The first black Johnny Storm I remember was from the New Exiles comic. I can't find any images right now.
 
Why didn't we think of this? Credit to someone on SHH for suggesting...

He has the physique and chops to pull it off. Also, knowing that Marvel likes a little bit of comedy mixed in with their action, he would be a perfect fit.

This thread has basically turned into Marvel movie talk.
Feel free to talk some monster/E.T./Natural Phenomenon/Paranormal based films if you want. I've seen some talk of other movies that fit in here bleed in to other threads like the 300 sequel.

Thing is Marvel's just been dominating as of late so when teasers, trailers, and announcements get out it'll take up a few pgs.

Eh, they probably realized how stupid their Beast looks so might as well change things up. Seems more like Dr. Hyde/Mr. Jekyl with the serum but getting "worked up" is clearly code for Hulk gets angry.

I've noticed despite the point of Beast being the big brute that happens to also be the sophisticated well educated big brain reversal they rarely ever play up his animal instincts or animal rages as a plot point. You just usually see him yelling in fights to really remind you he's a beast. The times it is brought up it's not fleshed out.

Luckily for me there's so many X-Men and they're pretty much ruining a good deal of the ones I don't give a **** about. The ones I do love are pretty much ignored and to me that's better than what's been done to ppl like Deadpool and Gambit. So far only JLa's Mystique has me disappointed.

They are not supposed to bring up his animalism. He is there to show you how unfairly targeted mutants are. If he could hide his powers or looked normal no one would bat eye. He was often unfairly judged by looks despite being a model citizen and an excellent example of how mutants are not inherently evil.


Him being taken over by his animalistic side is supposed to be rare. "Don't judge a book by its cover" is, in short, the point of his character. His life depicts the irrationality of mutantphobia.
