Sequels "Gambit" starring Channing Tatum? - Part 3

[psylockolussus]

I think Gambit warrants his own film. He has more then enough stories outside of X-Men for solo movie.

He only warrants a film when the actor attached is proven to be a success in an Uncanny X-Men film. He's not an Iron Man or Captain America. He's more of a X-Men staple than a solo herowho is just a part time member of a superhero team.

Yeah, Nicieza is my favourite Gambit writer too.

Here is interview with Fabian about Gambit movie.

You’ve written for Gambit, any insight into the upcoming film? Is Channing Tatum a good or bad Remy LeBeau?

Nicieza: I think Channing Tatum is a great choice quite honestly. I happen to like Channing Tatum a lot. I really do. I think he’s a great choice not the least of which is that he likes the character and wants to do it. I have no idea what they are going to do with the movie. I just heard a rumor today that Mr. Sinister may be in it which makes a lot of sense. My personal preference for Gambit was not necessarily doing the adventures of Gambit as a feature film, my personal preference for a live action Gambit was always teenage Gambit. Romeo and Juliet with the Assassin’s Guild and the Thieves Guild as a television series. That was always my preference… I was actually working on a Gambit novel in the early aughts but the whole contract got pulled between Marvel and the outside licensor…I always thought quite frankly Gambit worked better outside of the X-Men then he does in the X-Men. My only hope is that they do a really really stylish, fun heist movie but also create an interesting core character conflict where there is no right answer for him because those are the best stories for him.

That sounds like something people would watch, a Gambit TV show about two star-crossed lovers. Much like Sookie and Bill in True Blood!

Iron-man never was huge before Robert Downey. Noone knew about Ant-Man, Guardians and others too. Most people who watch movies never even read comics.

Gambit has solo stories and has them enough for solo movies.

 

[psylockolussus]

But you see the likes of Iron Man, Ant-Man, Hulk, Captain America, Spidey and Thor were created as solo heroes not as a member of a team. And most of those Avengers have their own rogues gallery and mythology. While Guardians were never part of the Avengers.

That can't be said to Gambit. Gambit spent most of his time as a member of the X-Men. He's not the only X-Man to get a solo comic book. Rogue, Storm, Cyclops, Iceman, Nightcrawler did too but like Gambit, they should be utilized (first) in a X-Men film.

If you don't really see the difference between Gambit and those Avengers, then okay. Gambit isn't also Deadpool.

If you think Gambit don`t have his own rogues gallery and mythology then it seems you never read his solo stories or just trying to underestimate him.
Now I can`t take your posts seriously. Also compairing Gambit solo stories amount and history outside of X-Men to Rogue, Storm, Cyclops, Iceman, and Nightcrawler are at least funny.

Just because Gambit was created in comics in team book means nothing for X-Men movies. Timeline is different. Characters is different.
Cyke teen will never be a leader whith old Mystique, Gambit or other old characters in X-Men team movie.

Flash news to you, Gambit is more essential as a X-Men member than a solo hero. That's like releasing a Karnak movie before introducing him in the Inhumans film or making a Chun Li film before introducing her in a Street Fighter film. The only reason why this film is being made in the first place is they got a big actor wanting to do it and co produce it.

And since this is going to be released by Fox, its not a guaranteed success. Gambit is one of my favorite X-Men, but he's no Deadpool and Wolverine. Not everyone should get a film because unlike the comics, it takes more time, money and effort to release one. Gambit is better off with the X-Men and Rogue. It's not like he has already appeared with the X-Men for a handful of films and needed to be spin off in his own film. Nope!

Gambit movie took no time, money or effort from X-Men team movies. It has zero impact on X-Men Dark Phoenix which is the next X-Men movie.

I would love to see Gambit with Rogue in X-Men. The truth is that there is no place for old Gambit and Rogue in teens X-Men saga that are in past. How old Rogue will be in Dark Phoenix? 6 years or 10 old?

Not everyone gets movies. Just the ones who has the most potential for solo and that has solo stories in comics and outside of X-Men. And it is definetely Gambit.

Channing Tatum Teases ‘Gambit’: 'Wait Till You See What We’re Going To Do'

There was a con recently that Claremont attended (maybe the same one where he did a panel with Simonson) and he talked about how invested he was in the Gambit movie (presumably because he also worked on it). So he seems to be looking forward to that.

I know Jim Lee was as equally disappointed with Origins as Liefeld was, so I hope Jim Lee gets his moment in the sun with his creation Gambit, as Liefeld and Craig Kyle and Bill Sienkiewicz seem to be getting with some of their creations.

I would like to see Claremont be invested in an Uncanny X-Men film.

since you hate all the x-men films why do you care what fan of x-men films thinks or says.

You post as if you've never visited this forum before. I have more posts in favour of X-Men films than nearly anyone else. All the history is there if you want to check.

For the record and so you know where I'm coming from:

I like X1, The Wolverine and First Class a lot.

I absolutely LOVE X2, DofP, Deadpool and Logan. The first 3 are among my favourite and most rewatched CBMs of all.

I would like Apocalypse a lot if they had done a better job with the look of the main villain (they cast one of my favourite new actors). And so glad they got Psylocke right, even if she needed more screentime.

XMO:W is the worst entry in the series for me and I can enjoy X3; it's only the implications of all the decisions taken into the run up to it and the longlasting impact of that that has been a big deal to me. Aside from that the budget cuts in the early days were a big concern and who knows how much better the effects for the films and the ambition/scale of the overall project could have been without that, but regardless, Bryan Singer did a great job of bringing the X-Men to film at a very risky time post B&R.

 

[psylockolussus]

They only got Psylocke's look right, her role is completely a slap to a face.

well odds are you and haters who have been jumping for joy on x-men cinematic universe likely ending and x-men becoming part of mcu.

and when you consider how ant-man and wasp was treated in mcu who knows who will be part of lineup of mcu X-men.

films like x-men,x2,DOFP,and logan never would be made by disney.certinly not r rated deadpool.even first class since while lighter than ot,and dofp has this thing elurding most mcu films since disney bought marvel.balance
between drama,seriouasness,and lighter moments.

 

[Iceman]

Hater of what? There's one film I can categorically say I didn't love in the whole history of X-films and that's XMO:W (I just laid it out in the post you quoted). But the X-Verse has a lot of restrictions on its future due to the different ages of characters cast and characters stranded in different time periods. So I wouldn't mind seeing a reboot some day which would make anything possible, especially if that comes with larger budgets to improve on visuals (which are also important in a visual medium).

if x-men universe didn't end you really think now tht original cast is done they would continue to let ending scene of dofp limit them.colossus in deadpool shows that.who knows how kinberg will end dark phoenix.jean might die again though it really doesn't matter since x-men will be rebooted once disney and feige get x-men

since x-men and x2 are both erased i say fox already had reboot.so soon another one is coming.

as for gambit if it gets made now any sequel or franchise building will be for noting.Tatum might still get his dream to play gambit for one film but he won't get another chance.

If Fox eventually reboot or start a new set of films with access to all X-characters at the right age (by using time travel or whatever to deal with any continuity issues) and give it the right budget, that also works for me. It's not like I only want them to go to Disney. Any solution that can make that happen is fine, and some great films have happened under Fox.

They can just reboot everything in Deadpool universe. Like they rebooted Colossus. No reason to time travel.

I hope Gambit is in present with Deadpool, X-Force and New Mutants.

Yeah I don't need time travel. I don't even mind if they ignore continuity. Whatever works and whatever they need to do to justify being able to get all the core characters in the same time period at the right ages relative to each other.

that isn't going to happen.everything is going to be rebooted when disney gets it.sequels to another studio's films with actors from another studio lol

and deadpool is part of x-men cinematic universe.

they will be no time travel r dimension stuff.it will just be rebooted and thus those who hate X-men cinematic universe will be happy.now x-men-dark phoenix or gambit will be gone forever so x-men in mcu can happen.

Dark Phoenix is surely too far along to be affected even if any deal went through.

 

[marvelrobbins]

Dark Phoenix is surely too far along to be affected even if any deal went through.

dark phoenix will be last or second to last in X-men cinematic universe.though selling to disney assures failure why should anyone except die hard first class fans see it since x-men will be rebooted and thus events of dark phoenix ilrelvent.
