I would love an early 2000's MCU:

Ben Affleck as Daredevil
Jennifer Garner as Elektra
Thomas Jane as The Punisher
The original X-Men cast
Tobey Maguire as Spider-Man
Nicolas Cage as Ghost Rider

:o

With the Multiverse anything is possible now...

All joking aside, if they made an MCU Multiverse movie with the above plus the Story FF and Snipe's Blade as others have suggested (CGI could easily de-age some of the characters), I would watch the **** out of it!

For real :yay:
 
90s Spider-Man did the MCU better than the MCU.

Y’all wasn’t ready.

That Spider-Man / Wolverine fight...One of the most exciting moments from these 90s shows for me :D

Oh absolutely, it would be crazy and it would probably melt our geek brains :funny:
 
I decided to rewatch Captain Marvel today because i only watched it once in theater and never looked back. I mean no offense to anyone who loves this but this felt like such a nothing “blah” movie. Everything is so aggressively mediocre like they just wanted to get this thing out the way (which they probably did). Everything from the story to the action to the cinematography to the elevator music-like score to Brie Larson’s dead eyes in every scene to the incredibly baffling decision to turn the Skrulls into Australian stand up comedians just made this movie painful to sit through FOR ME.

Not to mention the infuriating (pun intended) creative decision to turn the origin of Fury’s eye into a punchline. Wow. Im shocked Feige signed off on that.

Anyway thats just me. Opinions and all that. Lol

*ahem* they're Australian stand-up comedians.
 

This doesn’t surprise me. I couldn’t believe that they fridged her after years of movies receiving well-deserved backlash for that very thing.

Also, I still find it funny that something that happened in an obscure Green Lantern comic book in the early 90s has become rooted in the public consciousness. It’s a trope that’s happened so often in popular movies since then, but the term fridging has endured even though I doubt most people are even aware of that comic. I’m not complaining about it; I just think it’s interesting that Kyle Rayner’s early stories have had such a long-lasting (and unintended) legacy.
 
At least Vanessa got to be a developed character in a flick before Leitch and Reynolds decided to off her. A far worse example was Magneto's family in X Men Apocalypse. His wife and daughter were just props for yet another heel turn.

It would be an interesting but complicated experiment for sure!

For example, Disney doesn't just own the film rights for X-Men, FF, Daredevil, and Elektra. They own the actual films now that were previously produced by Fox, with the possible exception of the Corman FF (no idea who owns that).

However, Punisher, Ghost Rider, and Blade are trickier. Disney now owns the relapsed rights to those characters but they don't own the 2000's films that were produced by Lions Gate, Sony, and New Line respectively. Of course Maguire's Spider-Man is still owned by Sony...

I'm just curious how it would work. Would Disney need the permission of the previous studios to rehire Cage, Snipes, and Jane? Would the actors have to play different versions of the same characters with no mention of the original films? Rights reversion is a complicated thing...

It would still be awesome though, assuming Disney could pull it off :cool:
 
Marvel owns that one as well. Avi Arad bought it and either buried or destroyed the original print.

Really? I honestly did not know that!

I'm oddly relieved. I'm a completist so it's good to know that all previous movie versions of the FF are now owned by Disney/Marvel...

Thanks for clarifying :yay:
 
Jesus that horizontal poster for NWH is horrific. How is it that one of the most successful movies in the world has had some of the worst film posters in existence.

Meindering's art is great as always though. I wonder if and when the "Art of" book is coming out. I have the ones for the other two as well as a bunch of other MCU films.

On top of that, it would be interesting to see which actors would actually want to return. Affleck I assume would not want to play Daredevil again, while someone like Cage would probably be game for a return as long as there's a good paycheck involved :o
