Sequels FOX Shared Universe

[MakeMinesMarvel]

Loved Vulcan and the Shi'Ar Arc. Fancy reading that again now

Brubaker gets a lot of love for Winter Solider and Iron Fist but his scripts with Tans pencils were so awesome to me.

What a great X-Men team he created

Havok
Polaris
Nightcrawler
Rachel
Warpath
Darwin

Sooooooo cool

 

[CyclopsWasRight]

Brubakers Iron Fist was awesome though. Hope they do K'un Lun for their Netflix show

Rightly so. Shouldn't have to watch movies about other characters to know what's going on in a movie at hand. They handled it great by having it as its own thing, common sense really.

The Guardians I read never met the Avengers, they were their own thing and didn't need interacting with Earth heroes, Sadly it won't last for the movies and theyll force Guardians to Earth or Avengers to space so they meets up

You didn't read much Guardians, obviously. The version the film was based on went up against Avengers villain Kang in one story, former Avengers Mantis and Moondragon were main team members, and Star-Lord himself ended up at prison 42.

Basically, you're wrong.

 

[MakeMinesMarvel]

I thought GotG was a New team around Annihilation crossover? Rocket and Groot aren't in infinity wars?

 

[CyclopsWasRight]

^ correct They went up against the Church of Universal Truth and the Annihilation Wave and War of Kings arc and never set foot on Earth. Though I stopped reading after ROK when the Hardcorvers took forever to come out.

But I never stated which guardians I read (nor did I state it should be exactly like my Guardians) so could not be wrong in that post as a particular antagonistic member states

 

[Eddie]

Basically any Guardians comic you could have read involves characters and concepts that were originally from other comics, including a ton of stuff from The Avengers. You're ludicrous statement that Guardians shouldn't tie in is, therefore, a silly, silly thing to say. Even if you were referring to old school Guardians (you weren't) it still ties into the greater Marvel U.

 

[MakeMinesMarvel]

GotG fits well with Avengers and they fill Silver Surfer role(Star-Lord). Hopefully Tony Stark hooks him up with a iPod.

 

[MakeMinesMarvel]

Speaking of Silver Surfer..

Spoiler

how cool would those N-Zone rumors be?

He'll get a lot of use out of the iPod, but those Turtles, Transformers, and JOE films will just be a disappointment.

BTW, Apparently a new X-Men comic has some dialogue that some are taking as a reference to the rights situation.

Marvel at it again.

 

[marvelrobbins]

Marvel at it again.

of course they are

 

[psylockolussus]

I'd rather not. Let Wolverine 3 focus on some new characters, such as Omega Red. Great chance to introduce Dark Star, one of my faves.

Big yes to Omega Red!

Fox will likely move their planned June 2017 Marvel adaptation (currently set to be a FF sequel) to a later date. The World War Z sequel has been announced for the same date.

Remember when there was talk of trouble during production of the first World War Z movie? How it went over-budget and had to do a lot of reshoots and the studio was not happy? How it was gonna bomb?

Wait what movie was I talking about again?

That movie had Brad Pitt and zombies, so it would have had a difficult time making NO money...

Also, I know a few of the folks here don't like to head over to the FF forum, so I guess I'll throw out here that we got some news today. There's a new promo video and image, and the site that's doing the promotion is saying that the film is only 2D. The 3D conversion seems to have been cancelled.

Yeah if that movie proved anything it's that a director can completely ostracize himself during production, lose opportunities all over hollywood, and be unceremoniously sidelined on his own film and have it all turn out okay. Remember how people were freaking out when WWZ had their post-conversion job cancelled, which is pretty much unheard of? And how the studio themselves had to admit that there were some "bumps in the road"? And pay an absurd amount of money to repair a house because of damages the director did?
Wait, that all happened with WWZ right?
Oh, it didn't? And the two situations are hardly even comparable? Hmm...

At the end of the day why does it matter if Trank trashed his rental home? Why is that relevant here? What does that have to do with the movie?

Like I've said before I have no horse in this race, would be totally fine if F4 didn't do that well, tbh. Just means either Fox would be more open to talks about bargaining for more X-men stuff in exchange for F4. Could also mean Fox wouldn't be too trusting of Kinberg with these franchises. Wouldn't care in the slightest if F4 rights reverted to Marvel.

Or you know the rebooted F4 could turn out good...

You people stress out too much.

 

[Orba]

The problem I always have with the World War Z comparison is that it was a horrendous adaption of the original material, beyond a couple of names the film and the book it was supposed to be based on have nothing in common. Even the zombies in the film are different.

I don't think they're stressin', they're obsessin'...

For anyone to be that persistently fixated on this sort of stuff suggests a campaign.

Anyone going on and on with such negativity and passive-aggressive sniping about F4 and Fox and rights reversions THAT MUCH clearly has a vested interest. These people must be connected to Marvel/Disney in some way. They won't convince me otherwise, they're just going on a bit too much for it to be anything else.

It can't just be insane fanboyism. I see that on social media and it's very different. Loads of people on Facebook have mental health issues that make them manic and obsessive and OTT and their behaviour is soon very obvious. What's happening here has a very different undercurrent.

They may as well just wait for the movie to come out and see what happens. If F4 goes back to Marvel, so be it... as it may well mean TV or merchandising rights for X-Men in return.

 

[marvelrobbins]

Here the thing.If ff bombs the rights stay with fox for 7 years.Now what in marvel's recent behaviour towards X-Men and FF makes you think they would offer anything.

If fox is devil as some claim why would they do anything with marvel.and turning everything FF related to marvel to get one X-Men tv show approved is very lopsed deal in favor of marvel.

Here is crazy notion the FF may be a success.

Some people who post on FF section drowning those out who actully want to see film act like paid employees of marvel/disney.And i just don't understand consently posting in section for film they claim to have no intrest in seeing.

It's gotta be that. No other reason here. I've never seen such negativity and praise for failure for a CBM specifically because it's not being made by a certain studio company.

I've got another reason. It's a little out there, so be sure you're sitting down before you read it. Ready?

We are FF fans.

There are actually some people out there, myself included, who are huge fans of the Fantastic Four. It's true! The World's Greatest Comic Magazine was the first comic I would grab during my weekly browsing through the spinner rack, and I have been waiting a long time for a well made film based on my favorite Marvel characters. Instead we've been saddled with the Corman version, two awful Story films and the cheap rights grab commonly known as FFINO.

We don't want a "contemporary reimagining" that bears no resemblance to the classic source material. We don't want twenty-something Reed, his tiny buddy Ben, their bloggin' pal Domashev, their African American chum Johnny and his adopted sister Sue. We don't want plodding rock monsters, vents and springs. We want the Fantastic Four, and it's a disgrace that in the golden age of comic book movies we are not getting it.

As soon as anyone mentions FF... y'all jump out of nowhere with three or four paragraphs of venom lol

I don't get where this "cheap rights grab" thing is coming from. It's not like they're making a single movie just to keep it away from Marvel. They have plans for them. Already have a release date for the sequel and everything, and possibly crossing them over with the X-Men.

You want the Fantastic Four. You got that with the first two films and they weren't good. Why try the same thing over? Why not try something different with the property? What's wrong with going in a different direction if the first one didn't do so well?

It's way past the point of ridiculousness, but it's w/e at this point. These debates are just gonna keep on going until August and the film finally comes out.

I tend to "jump out of nowhere" when posters suggest that I must either be a company shill or insane.
