We really need someone with manipping skills on this thread:-

 

[Rich Santoro]

I am your man... oh, wait... I thought that you said, "Man-upping skills". never mind...

 

[Brian Braddock]

Lolz.

 

[Brian Braddock]

I can't imagine it being that hard though:-

 

[Rich Santoro]

manipping??? Yeah, I have seen some great MS Paint manips on the Thor thread t:

 

[Brian Braddock]

Yeah, that's about the extent of my manipping prowess.

Damn, that pic looks like it could have come straight out of a DD movie. Morning after a big ass fight.

 

[Brian Braddock]

Yeah, covered in lots of cuts and bruises from the previous nights heroics.

 

[spidey-dude]

he seems like a decent choice, fits the bill well

 

[Brian Braddock]

Indeed.

 

[Brian Braddock]

Btw, the 'villa liverpools number 7?????' piece.

Very Nice.

 

[SuperKoala]

I think ray park could be a good bullseye, but they're probably looking to do a different villian

 

[marcvader]

and a real actor as well

 

[Brian Braddock]

Heh;

 

[SuperKoala]

oh c'mon, what they gave him in star wars he handled well

 

[Brian Braddock]

His speaking part was dubbed and Martial arts choreography is his strong suit; of course he handled that aspect well.

Bullseye needs to be played by a viable actor who can project a real sense of menace.

I'm going to be very upfront about this.

I really like the Daredevil movie. I own both the theatrical release and the Director's Cut. I have not one problem with Ben Affleck as Matt Murdock and even less of a problem with Michael Clark Duncan as Kingpin. In fact, I think Michael Clark Duncan's Fisk is superior to the comics version.

I would welcome a sequel with all of the above. The fact that Daredevil let a man die doesn't change anything for me. The movie is about him learning to be a better man and he does learn that. A sequel would begin with that better man.

That's why I went with the semi-sequel. Let it be known that the first movie happened, but recast where necessary (and I think Murdock isone of the one's who needs recasting I'm afraid) and have the character have undergone (or during the first act undergo) some major character development

 

[marcvader]

I think the recast for Matt would happen regardless as Affleck said he'd never do this type of movie again.

 

[DavidTyler]

I think the recast for Matt would happen regardless as Affleck said he'd never do this type of movie again.

I never saw a quote from Affleck where he said that and, frankly, I'm a little surprised because he and Matt Damon are well known to be comics geeks.

From IGN Movies: "In a report that has been picked up by various European news outlets, Affleck told the press at the London premiere of his new film Hollywoodland, "By playing a superhero in Daredevil, I have inoculated myself from ever playing another superhero. ... Wearing a costume was a source of humiliation for me and something I wouldn't want to do again soon."

Christopher Carley (from Gran Torino) seems to have kind of a Foggy Nelson vibe.

I stopped reading after this..

The facial characteristics in those two pics Jordacar posted are uncannilly similiar; it's like Cary Nord used the left one as reference.

Except that was some of the worst acting I've ever seen.
