Tom Rothman

[Orko Is King]

OK, I don't visit these boards very often, so sorry if this has been discussed. But who exactly is this guy and what'd he do?

 

[DarknessOfDeath]

He's the head of FOX... and he screwed our Cyclops....

 

[Optic Rage]

He is the son of satan.

Plus he has one of those faces youd just love to hit.

Rothman is satan´s rectum, Hitler´s testicles and Jessica Simpson´s brains. he´s the man who did everything possible to screw up X-Men 1 and only didn´t because of Bryan Singer, which he still managed to lose to Superman ater the guy created the studio´s best post-SW cash cow... The man who butchered Daredevil from a character and plot-driven movie to a seizure-inducing MTV video... Who decided it´d be great to make Fantastic Four as the poor man´s Men In Black meets lame family sitcom... Who put poor Brett Ratner in a schedule so rushed to make X-Men The Last Stand that Stanley Kubrick himself wouldn´t turn it into a masterpiece - that it isn´t a train wreck is something I will admire Ratner for ages to come... Rothman heads a studio that holds back filmmakers and vision, that believes fast pacing, silly humor and non-stop action should ALWAYS be privileged over character development and storytelling.

WOW...
All I can say.

 

[Super Flight]

but really did rothman REALLY have the finally say on weather cyclops will die or not? or was that Zak Penn and the other writter????

 

[KenK]

What I don't understand is why anyone with even a tertiary knowledge of X-Men would want to kill Cyclops. It really makes no sense. Xavier, I can see it, but Cyclops?

 

[Rac]

Wasn't Satan fallen angel? Well, if God created angels too.

But yes, I was just toying with the idea that someone more evil than Satan could create Satan. You know?

exactly... cyclopse doesnt die during the dark pheonix saga! Not even Close! only in FOX's minds does he die, so they want to put it in the movie...bastards

yes I know, his name is Rothman

Rothman the fat cat at fox, who doesn't give two ****s or a **** about us, he cares about money and adopting vietniese children only to turn them into sex slaves for his dog, which he tapes, then sells on the interent for a profit, which he used the money to fund seal clubbers, who kill baby seals, and then send the seals back to rothman who eats the seals, and then poops it out, and make a salad out of the poop, which he gives to the poor, the poor then puke, and start robbing mcdonalds, which puts them out of business, which makes people skinny again, which makes plastic surgeons go broke, which makes them homeless eating puke salads, robbing fast food place, causing caos

 

[KenK]

It's just sad, 'cause you think about the first movie. . .NO ONE DIED!! For a comic book movie, I was so proud of the filmmakers for doing that, and at least think about the possibility of future installments, instead of killing a character off just 'cause they were the bad guy.

 

[Avalanche]

Tom Rothman is a personal favourite of every Cyclops fan.

[Spider-X]

...can anyone here please give an unbiased report of the man without using the words Satan, sex with pigs, gluttony, and Rosie O'Donalded (*quiver*).

 

[KenK]

The decisions he's made regarding the X-Men franchise are enough without making up stuff about how evil he is. The first X-Men was restricted by its budget and it's time for filming. They didn't care about how the film turned out as long as they could chuck it on the summer schedule, figuring any action-related summer movie would net them some cash. X2 was a result of Singer and his team gaining more clout after X-Men's commercial success. The result proved even more commercially successful, and this time around, the film got critical acclaim as well. But they FOX figured they could throw anything at a wall and make it stick. I mean c'mon, X2 makes 85 million it's first weekend and you as the studio head don't IMMEDIATELY renew Singer's contract? Superman would still be in development hell, and while Singer was waiting for FOX to make up its mind, WB saw what this guy did for X-Men and decides to throw a lotta money at him. He's got no choice, 'cause FOX still isn't re-upping with him. Then FOX decides to lock in a release date for X3 WITHOUT A DIRECTOR!!! How do you set a release date for a film before you even know if you can find a director?!?!?

I'd love for X3 to be a great movie, even a good movie, and I'm sure I'll still end up enjoying it, but every decision FOX has made regarding the film tells me they don't care if it's good or not.

sorry that can't be done

 

[FieryBalrog]

He's basically just a ****ing prick. Calling him "Satan" gives him an importance thats just not there.

 

[Karea07]

wow, mods havent closed this yet?

 

[JokerNick]

wow, mods havent closed this yet?

they all agree with my opinion, that's why!!!!!

 

[nathajoon]

These kind of guy can destroy entire franchise by their desire for money, it is a real shame when this guy is ALREADY rich! Sadly, they just don't care.
