If you had a choice between working in Marvel comics as a writer or whatever or working at Marvel Studios as a producer, actor etc, which would you choose?

I would love to write for Marvel but I think I would have more fun behind the scenes on the movies oddly enough
 
Movies. I'm interested in film anyway.

Problem with comics is, they go on for a LONG time, movies usually stay under 10 films.

We all know Marvel has to keep doing stupid things to keep it going. I stopped reading comics these days because
1. They're too expensive
2. They've resorted to stupid story telling at times

I will get the graphic novels if the story looks interesting, and I do like those. It's just after awhile the stories in these comics get a bit out of hand. Like, Green Goblin was killed YEARS ago, and then he was back. I hate stuff like that. I've heard about Spider-Man making deals with Mephisto, and Captain America dying etc. Just not interesting. I prefer reading stuff from back in the 60s-early 2000's, and like I said, the occasional graphic novel.

Movie's would be a bit more simple to write for.
 
I like my comics, but they are nothing compared to watching a great movie, would love to work on the movies more anyday.
 
Yea i love my comics. But to get the chance to direct a film about one of my favourite comic characters? That would be a dream come true.
 
Comics all the way.

I'm an artist. I love to draw. I love to write. I love to make comic books in general. And to pay me for that? Amazing.

I worked in film before. I hated most of it. Everyone was so incredibly fake. All these false smiles and diabetic inducing personalities. They praise the wrong people.
 
Comics. But I might go Hollywood if the money is right. :cool:
 
Working with Scarlett Johansson or Joe Quesada?

Come on now...

Plus, give me producer money on any Marvel/Fox/Sony film.
 
I'd do movies. Your work on a comic can be buried, undone, forgotten. Movies can be rebooted (OBVIOUSLY) but your work will always have significance. And you're not shackled by 40+ years of backstory.
Plus, I wouldn't want to write a story set in a post-CW/OMD world.
