The Official Marc Guggenheim & Script Discussion Thread (Spoilers)

[Octoberist]

yeah. Well, what I meant was that I want the humor to be funny and clever enough, that it doesn't appear to be too sitcomy..which was what the humor in the script was..

 

[Webhead2006]

I am sure campbell will be able to mix comedy and drama together.

 

[ultimatefan]

Can someone send me a PM?

 

[Webhead2006]

we cant its against the forum rules.

hmmm interesting, i doubt though ff will have anything happen in fox, with the marvel/disney deal it will probably end up back at marvel.

 

[Doctor Jones]

Fox will probably interfere and hire a ****** director. Even if he rights a good script, it'll probably crapped on.

 

[Webhead2006]

i still dont see it going probably past a script, fox only made this statement to try and keep the characters a bit longer.

 

[Octoberist]

you might be right, but it's interesting that Green is on board.

Personally, I would love to see another writer take a polish on the Green Lantern myself...

 

[Webhead2006]

will be cool if they can do something more with the characters i do like the ff characters, but just like how their was talks of them wanting to do another ghost rider, to rebooting daredevil, what has fox actually done about it. Nothing that i know of. So they likely just used the disney news to say hey marvel we still want to do these guys. But if they can make the deadline i hear which is like another 2-3 yrs it will go back to marvel/disney. And if dd/ff were to be rebooted, i rather have marvel make it then letting fox run the characters to the ground again. Personally i think they should just give up on the rights to ff/dd/ghost rider cause seriously i dont think they will end up doing anything with them in the near future. They got the handle at xmen guys, they might as well just continue to play with the xmen box as long as they can.

 

[Doctor Jones]

I'll believe it when I see when they can make an actual good movie. It's their fault they've churned out ****** films for so long so they deserve the doubt.

 

[Octoberist]

yeah, Fox needs to prove us wrong but it'll take a while.

 

[Webhead2006]

Yup but at this rate with them doing **** films its more likely the characters will go back to marvel.

 

[Doctor Jones]

At least their joint plan with Disney, it has better chances to coming back to Marvel.

 

[Octoberist]

what is possible is Disney doing a buy out of the contract from Fox..

 

[SpiderByte]

Could someone send me the script, please?

 

[Webhead2006]

we cant do that any more, as it been stated many times. SHH doesnt want users posting or sending in pm copyrighted stuff.

 

[SpiderByte]

Got the script.

It is so awesome!
I really like how

Spoiler

Pipe is Alan Scott

.

This film will be 150% pure, condensed AWESOME.

 

[Doctor Jones]

It can only get better with Campell attached. It's flawed, but solid.

 

[SpiderByte]

Definetly gonna be a hit. I think GL will be the Iron Man of DC. Slightly unknown, but come 2012 everyone will know who he is.

 

[Doctor Jones]

I think so too, if they play their cards right.

 

[Webhead2006]

totally.

 

[Octoberist]

yeah, the script is a love letter to the comics and a great gateway to the series. I think Martin's handling of the script will make it only better.

 

[SpiderByte]

I hope we get another leak by 2011. Just to see where its going.

 

[Webhead2006]

that would be nice, but i doubt they will let the more current one get out there.
