LMAO! Then I guess David Goyer DIDN'T announce that he's directing the Flash. What a joke.

Why does he have to be a moron? First of all, why write Marvel off just b/c you didn't like their last couple of outings? Why can't there be room for both? I'm not even gonna tell you not to count your Kryptonians b4 they emerge from their birthing matrix, but slow your roll.

DC may be coming back, but I don't see them grabbing Marvel's spot yet. Let us see how Batman Begins and Superman Returns turn out first, then we'll talk.

He is a "moron" (and a troll, IMO) because his argument was not that Marvel would continue to make superior films, but rather Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, The Flash, and Green Lantern are all unpopular characters. Considering they are among the most popular superheroes ever, that's an insane statement.

Secondly his use of the English language is amazingly poor, which means (unless English isn't his first language), he is uneducated, which could also be termed, as The Batman said, a moron...though I wouldn't be quite as crass in the wording.

And how the Flash, etc. turn out as well.

Though, BB's going to rock, I can promise you that.

Spider-Fan · 03-13-2005, 11:57 AM

Have they said when Flash will be out. Anyway, I don't get caught up in these DC vs Marvel things, because really I like both. I hope all movies on both sides turn out well.

The Flash is aiming for a 2007 release

Spider-Fan · 03-13-2005, 12:19 PM

That makes sense. Thanks btw.

I still think that's extreme. And when I see terms like "Marvel moron" flung about I tend to think the person using it feels that way about ALL Marvel fans.

Ah, yeah, well to me, HighVoltage represents the stupidity of biased fans of both publishers...though, in this case, it just happens to be a biased Marvel fan.

1). I never called you a moron, The Batman did. In fact, I clearly stated I would not call you that. I merely said you had terrible language skills, and ahorribly illogical argument.

2). I didn't say you are a troll because you're a Marvel fan. I said, you're biased in your thinking that any Superhero who is not connected to your favorite publisher, sucks. That you're a Marvel fan has little to do with it.

You are a troll. You ranted on DC's upcoming slate of movies and I proved your wrong on many points, including the fact that Superman is a widely known character. He's an American icon for Pete's sake!

Thanks for reminding me about that.

*looks at sig*

DarthPlagueis · 03-14-2005, 02:30 AM

I guarantee that Superman Returns WILL make more money then Batman Begins. But thats all DC basically has, those two characters. All the others are whatever to the mainstream. Anyways, its been forever since we've had a Superman movie. The anticipation alone is more then BB. The general audience will be confused by this BB restart cuz most of them don't even no it is one. Personally they should have taken Brian Singer's approach with Batman; IGNORE parts 3 & 4 and make a sequel to parts one and two. The first two had that bad ass dark tone to them. Even though part 3 made a lot of money. I think if Val Kilmer returned for Batman & Robin they would made Batman 5 in 2000 and we probably would have been on part seven already. You people also forget that Marvel still has X-3, Spiderman 3, Hulk 2(with a lot a Hulk Smash), and they STILL got one more BIG TIME character not unleashed yet, Captain America.

I dunno Darth...I think a Wonder Woman film done right could...well, do wonders for DC's case.

The problem with DC/Warners is that they are afraid to take chances...they like their comfort zones. The only reason they are venturing out now is because of the widespread success of Marvel's films, and that's a fact.

Marvel has become a trendsetter in launching multiple titles simitaneously.

Warner Brothers is afraid to get wet.

He types like a moron, comes off as a moron, is ignorant like a moron.

Sounds like a moron to me.

I didnt say there couldnt be room for both. I'm saying that marvel fanatics are getting mad because they're not the only ones making big franchise movies now.

Ant-Man · 03-14-2005, 05:31 PM

DC makes one movie (BB) that is supposedly good (how can anyone know absolutely for sure yet?) and is all a sudden the king of comic book movies. If I don't recall their last 3 comic book movies were Catwoman (terrible and that's being nice), Constantine (average, nothing to get over excited about) and Batman and Robin (need I say any more).

Marvel has definitly had missteps but I wouldn't say that D.C has taken the edge from them. That has yet to be determined.

The Batman · 03-14-2005, 05:35 PM

and recall the last three marvel movies were Blade Trinity, Elektra, and Man-Thing, which was supposedly so bad it got put on the sci-fi channel instead of in theaters. whats your point?

So what-anyone who makes up their mind based on the publisher rather than the merits of the picture itself is stupid? That would nullify this entire thread.

Somewhat. Anyone that hears about a Marvel movie and goes "oh that sucks!" (or vica versa) has a very unintelligent mindset, IMO.

And the thing about HighVoltage is...it's not just that. His argument appears unintelligent from every angle:

1). Horrible grammar
2). Horrible spelling
3). Biased opinions
4). Illogical opinions not at all based in fact
5). Horribly organized arguments

How could you not say this guy's not too smart?

No, it's not that. It's that they have such a killer line up of movies coming. Like I said, Batman, Superman, The Flash, Wonder Woman, Green Lantern, V for Vendetta and Watchmen is an all-star line up no matter how you look at it. The question is...will they be good? And that's exactly where I agree with your statement below:
