Sequels What would you prefer: Emma Frost Or Gambit Movie

[chaseter]

Gambit...Gambit...Gambit...Gambit

 

[Quing]

I want to see a Gambit movie. But i'd like to see a Rogue one...because we'd see the real Rogue and Gambit as well.

Having a Gambit movie for the sake of ROMY would be a huuuuge mistake. Don't get me wrong, I'm a big fan of the whole ROMY thing, but there is so much more to both of those characters and when they have them together, the actual character development tends to disappear completely. And both characters are too good to waste like that.

Remy can hold a movie and, more importantly, his powers are very visual. If they want an action flick, then Gambit is the obvious choice given his background and powers. They could do it like a spy movie (except, obviously, he's a thief) and I bet people would see it. Everybody knows Gambit. Anyone who grew up watching TAS knows and loves him, and people would go see it.

On the other hand, Emma offers something that Gambit doesn't - a hot nearly naked chick. And while everybody loves a good naked woman, that gimmick doesn't work as well when it comes to carrying entire movies as people think (Catwoman, anyone?). If they did a sort of history of Emma Frost, an origin thing, people would just be wondering who the hell she was the entire time. Comics fans might like it, but it wouldn't appeal to as large an audience as a Gambit one would.

If they do it right, whichever (if either) they do, should lead into the next X-Movie; end with some connection to the X-Men in the current movieverse so that if/when they do another film, there'll be an easy way for the characters to come in without worrying too much about backstory.

maybe they could combine the two in a movie?

 

[Hulkster]

They shouldn't do a spin off of Emma or Gambit because it's not gonna work, look at what happened to Hulk, Punisher & Elektra those three have some huge fanbase but look at what happened, it fails. Emma and Gambit are not that popular they are known because of the title X-men so they should appear in an X-men movie not a spin off.

Do i have to answer?

 

[Hulkster]

[Bishop2]

Emma absolutely.

OMG Punisher was not bad WTH is with ppl acting like it's a greek tragedy

Hulk's fault wasn't that of the character but Director.


Elektra- No comment.

 

[Matt.S99]

I didn't say Punisher was bad, all I'm trying to say is that it didn't turn out to be that great as many fans expected. And it didn't become a box office hit.

Hulk - For me Hulk is a good film, and Hulk has a huge fanbase, but it didn't turn out great aswell.

Elektra - No comment

Emma or a Gambit movie would turn out to be just like a Catwoman movie.

i totally disagree both of the characters are very interesting and given what we know about Gambit he can really make a good movie just on him.

It all depends on good writing and directing.

 

[Hulkster]

I also disagree on what you said, a Gambit solo movie will be boring even if they have the greatest writer and director, first of all Gambit's fame started with the X-men, and I hate to say this but, Gambit is not that popular compared to Wolverine.

And what will Gambit do in his movie? be a thief? and a hero at the same time? Catwoman did that already and it sucked.

Gambit is one of my favorite characters but I don't think he's that popular to have his own movie.

 

[Abaddon]

neither.

 

[tgfy]

Well I would prefer a Gambit movie, but really and truly neither one of them should have thier own movie unless it can stand on it's own. You can't even define them as spin-offs since neither one of the characters were featured in the 3 X-men movies. I agree with people that say save them for X4.....and then they can develop a spin-off on one or both of the characters.

He doesn't have to be a Hero and being a thieve with powers is fine and how are you going to compare him to Catwoman if his character is alot more popular so he isn't Wolverine who cares Wolverines overrated anyways, i think alot of X-Men not just Gambit can hold their own in a movie.

Im sorry i don't want to say you attacked me but you where awfully quick to respond and the Catwoman comparison that was bad.

Edit- another thing they havn't been in the X-Men movies so they won't have to suffer as a spin-off

Sorry man, I think my replies are a bit harsh. I like Gambit better than Catwoman, and I only compared them because they have a little similarity.

I think Gambit is very blessed because he doesn't appear in the 3 Wolverine movies and maybe someday he can be portrayed by a good writer and director on an X-men movie.

 

[ljr]

I don't think either should have their own movie,their just can't carry one.Have them in the x-kids spin-off.

 

[Lactose]

Neither.

Spinoffs shouldn't happen at all, let alone for a character that never appeared in the movies.

Why weaken and cheapen it further? Gotta agree

Lactose the Intollerent

 

[mad_harleyq]

emma but its not like it really matters, gambit is no where near being or having a movie

 

[vindrow]

Neither one deserve their own movie.

 

[MovieKing]

NEITHER OF THEM!!! think of the success of the x-men movies as a whole....the success of one movie tells whether there should be antoher....the emma idea is pushing it seeing that this generation really doesn't read comics as much and wouldn't know who she is...and gambit,please noooo! why?! what would the plot be?...i say they either keep the x-men sequels going or just stop at 3....spin-offs are DUMB...WHAT'S THE POINT

 

[DarknessOfDeath]

niether...why? cause neither of them were in the first 3 x-films. nuff said.

A Gambit or Emma movie technically wouldn't be spin-offs
and as far as making a movie for them it can be done and better yet i would prefer they don't even emphasis their X-men status just that maybe they are in the same world.

So? they are character on their own and have had their own titles.

 

[blind_fury]

A Gambit movie could be better than a James Bond movie if done right. And the way Hollywood works these days that's a BIG "if".
