    Last time this was brought up I'm pretty sure the source got debunked.

    However I still think COulson faking his death is a pretty good possibility.

    A contract with the Senior Partners does not terminate upon death.

    Gonna be straight with everybody.

    If it is revealed that the guy that played Gunn is also playing Gunn in this and Buffyverse is being folded into Marvel Movie Universe I will freak the fuck out in the happiest possible way.

    I don't know where else to rant so I am going to do it here.

    The new TMNT movie, is about aliens that make the turtles? Megan Fox is April? Danny Woodburn is splinter? The Turtles are CGI?

    What. The. Fuck.

    I would say that Iron Man 3 is more comic booky than the last two films. You can apply even less real world logic to this movie than the last two.

    Although, it was weird how
    Killian forgot that he could breathe fire when he fought Tony.
    It looked like he had to heat up quite a bit to do that, so I figured he wasn't because he didn't want to overheat and explode

    The script with the aliens was rejected.

    But anyway why does any of that matter? This aint movie worth seeing. We knew this the second Bay got his mits on it.

    Can't we just ignore it?

    The script with the aliens wasn't rejected, it was modified so that the turtles are no longer from space, but apparently aliens are still around. I was just surprised with the casting because it's horrible. It won't be ignored, it's a freaking TMNT movie.

    Moving on to Superman, not sure if it's in this thread, I didn't see it, but the new poster was relased. Much better than the first one, kinda hope to get one to frame for my wall.

    I love TMNT, I can't ignore it. I'll end up watching it. I just.. love TMNT. Not as much as I love Superman... I have an unhealthy obsession with Superman.

    That poster will be mine.

    Oh and here is a minimal version with just the title (fan edit):

    But he used the fire breathe quite casually against Rhodey and Rhodey wasn't a threat at all. So why would he take such an unnecessary risk?

    When he was fighting Tony, it was a life or death situation. It would have made much more sense for him to take that risk in that situation since h needed every edge he could get.

    RE: Fire in IM3
    When he used it on Rhodey as I recall he seemed to be putting quite a lot of effort into it. Walks slowly up to him, lights up slowing, breath deep, fire.

    Because sometimes giving things a shot results in being pleasantly surprised if you're being honestly open minded and not dismissing things outright. Not saying the new TMNT will be good at all, but I'm willing to give it an honest shot.

    We arn't even talking about people giving it a fair shot. We are talking about people paying attention and keeping up with the movie just to complain about what they are doing.

    Don't see no point to it.

    You know, even though it's a really shitty story, I'm surprised my copy of the Essential Ms. Marvel doesn't include Avengers #200. It includes Avengers Annual #10, which discusses the events of 200 (and basically rips the story a new asshole) but I was kinda confused until I read a wiki article.

    I'm sure the reason it wasn't included was partly due to page count (200 was the conclusion of a story arc that began in 197, and 200 was double-sized, so that's another hundred-plus pages right there) and partly due to the fact that fans of the character aren't really interested in reading an extended storyline that ends with her eloping with her rapist while her teammates cheer them on.

    Every time I see the Superman Trailer, and hear the new score, I get a little more excited than I probably should be.

    I'm amped up to expect this movie to be "pretty damn good" levels of enjoyable now, instead of "maybe it'll be okay" like I was 2-3 months ago. I'm hoping so much I'm not disappointed.

    Re: Turtles

    Wouldn't Krang and the denizens of Dimension X be technically classifiable as aliens? I mean, from a "modern adaptation" point of view, I could see them doing that. And if that ends up being the "aliens" I'll be fairly okay with it.

    Yeah I knew about that, I was talking about the rewrite where they fixed the origin but apparently still have aliens.

    The best Superman movie that I have seen up to this point is All Star Superman. It really shows off what is so great about the character. I can only hope that they can capture that kind of vision of the Man of Steel, a man that is not only super, but a good person as well. If they can do that with Man of Steel, I'm sold.

    does TMNT still have a big following? I mean I loved them as a kid and will therefore always have a certain level of interest in reboots or whatever, but I didn't think that franchise was still pulling much weight.
