Rubin Farr Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Guardians of the Galaxy looks like the one to beat, but that Ant Man helmet is pretty cool: http://m.ign.com/articles/2013/04/03/first-pictures-of-marvels-phase-two-movies-ant-man-guardians-of-the-galaxy-thor-the-dark-world-and-captain-america-the-winter-soldier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Gary C Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 (edited) Ant-Man is the only good thing about Phase 2. Seriously. Did anyone else catch that 20 second long piece of teaser footage? I don't think it's online any more, but it was good. Edited April 3, 2013 by Gary C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackdust Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Yeah the Test footage for Ant-Man was amazing. Test footage in the past has always been low budget but this test footage could have been pulled straight from the film is was that good. Edgar Wright can do no wrong... yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rubin Farr Posted April 3, 2013 Author Share Posted April 3, 2013 the test footage for Tron Legacy helped get that movie done, actually that clip was better than half the movie! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
awepittance Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 im looking forward to Guardians of the Galaxy, probably moreso than the new Star Wars movie. At least it will be an epic space alien movie with no shitty ties to the prequel trilogy with boring horribly characterized jedis who speak in monotone or whine. I think it's a huge missed opportunity on Marvel's part to keep making solo hero movies before Avengers 2. Like why in the fuck can't Iron Man 3 be a buddy movie with Captain America? Or Thor 2 starring Hulk? It seems bizarre not to do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blir Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Really looking forward to Thor 2, I loved the first. My favourite pre Avengers movie easily. It has a good chance of being utter shit though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

awepittance Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 i mean characters that appeared in the most successful Marvel movie yet, the Avengers. It doesn't even make sense to me from a money perspective why they wouldn't team up characters from that movie in their respective 'solo' titles. I don't want to see another solo adventure of Iron Man or Captain America with a bunch of other side characters no one gives a fuck about after the Avengers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

psn Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 Thor was the worst film I have seen in my life. Enjoyed Avengers and Iron Man quite a bit, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest zaphod Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 why do all these movies look the exact same? the comics don't. the movies should have different styles, color palettes, etc. and i agree with awepittance, why aren't the heroes teaming up for standalone films? seems like a giant waste not to.

Rubin Farr Posted April 23, 2013 Author Share Posted April 23, 2013 I'm still hoping for Silver Surfer or Dr. Strange Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Frankie5fingers Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 after the atrocious second Fantastic Four you really want Silver Surfer in a stand alone? as for Dr. Strange, i really liked that animated movie they did a couple years back. And they plan on having him for live action during Phase 3 of the Marvel line-up. most likely just an appearance though. not his own movie.

awepittance Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 Downy Jr. could play dual roles, like Peter Sellers in Dr. Strangelove Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rubin Farr Posted April 23, 2013 Author Share Posted April 23, 2013 Silver Surfer in a cosmic movie away from earth could be sick, think of all the space heroes he could hook up with. It won't happen though bc Marvel doesn't have the rights to FF related characters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zazen Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 ant man footage still online http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aO08YpEgSM0 That sorta looks cool but I have no idea whats going on once he gets inside the guys mouth. Why does he turn his head? What kills him? How does microscopic ant-man throw the other guy through the window? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

delet... Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 No one mentioned black panther yet. But he's a key figure that was going to get a run in the 3rd wave innit. Maybe in the 2nd avengers.

Guest abusivegeorge Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 (edited) I made a seperate thread for my content in this post http://forum.watmm.com/topic/78740-marvel-cinematic-universe/ but have been referred here also, might be of interest :-).I've been researching recently into the latest Marvel comics movies and learnt something very interesting. Marvel Cinematic Universe is a relatively new franchise and they have only been going since 2007 with their first movie release in 2008 (Iron Man). This franchise has the comic book creators at the heart and they expressed distain at the X-men and Spiderman movies in particular being unhappy that they did not follow the Comic books close enough. One particular relationship being that between Gambit and Rogue who are desperately in love but cannot have a physical relationship due to Rogues mutation. They've only produced and released 7 movies the most recent being Iron Man 3. The other 6 are Iron Man 1 and 2, The Incredible Hulk, Thor, Captain America and The Avengers. However they are the 4th biggest grossing franchise of all time, even surpassing the Tolkien franchise (LOTR, The Hobbit). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marvel_Cinematic_Universe http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_highest-grossing_films#Highest-grossing_franchises_and_film_series It's been an interesting sunject for me lately because one of my closest friends father is John Higgins http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Higgins_%28comics%29 who was the colourist and part illustrator for "Watchmen" and he's worked woth Alan Moore (V for Vendetta, Watchmen, The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alan_Moore closely on a few projects. I am becoming increasingly fascinated with comic books and the realm of fantasy they bring. Edited May 4, 2013 by abusivegeorge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
funkaholic Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 (edited) I recently bought the first volume of Knights of Pendragon which was published by Marvel UK, has anyone here read it? I grew up with issues 6 & 7 which I always loved & freaked me out. Its a superhero comic (Captain Britain) but its not super hero comic at all, its basically a political & environmental story. Its absolutely superb and I highly recommend it. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knights_of_Pendragon I haven't read anything after 9 as the editor was fired for various reason, swearing at aimed at someone, red blood (instead of black), captain britain beating someone to death, not enough super heroes. Also issue 6 cover is amazing (the guy who did it also did the excellent Batman VS Judge Dredd): edit: Forgot to say, imagine they made of a film of it!?
