Getting all emotional here, but that could have been one of my favorite Smallville scenes, ever. Still remember the first time seeing that.

There are people who actually get emotional over memories of Smallville? :tounge:

... and after a few minutes, looks like it's fake.

It's an early April Fool's prank.

Yup. Weird that even an Aprils Fool Prank leaks early on the net too.

Captain America: The winter soldier doing great in reviews. I sorta knew it would. I loved the look of the first and it looks like they nailed it with this one. Hope Spidey 2 does is as good as this, since he´s my favourite superhero.

 

[RFX45]

Eh, everyone raved about IM3 too and it was one of the worst Marvel films to date. I'll wait and judge myself.


On another news...

According to BoxOffice.com, Fox has scheduled an untitled solo Wolverine film for March 3, 2017. This will James Mangold's follow up to The Wolverine which he tweeted, "I'm shooting the next Wolverine after X-Men: Apocalypse (May 27, 2016)." Hugh Jackman is expected to reprise his role.

While Josh Trank's Fantastic Four, which will star Michael B. Jordan as Johnny Storm (aka the Human Torch), Kate Mara as Sue Storm (aka the Invisible Woman), Miles Teller as Reed Richards (aka Mr. Fantastic) and Jamie Bell as Ben Grimm (The Thing), doesn't hit theaters until June 19, 2015, Fox already is planning the film's sequel. They plan to release Fantastic Four 2 on July 14, 2017.

Fox announced that an untitled Fox/Marvel film will be released on July 13, 2018.

Additionally, Fox decided to push up Matthew Vaughn's The Secret Service to October 24, 2014, from March 6, 2015. Their Frankenstein film, that will star Daniel Radcliffe, was moved from January 16, 2015, to October 2, 2015.

DofP - May 23, 2014
F4 I - June 19, 2015
XMen: Apocalypse - May 27, 2016
Wolverine II - March 3, 2017
F4 II - July 14, 2017
Unnamed Fox/Marvel - July 13, 2018




I like it that Fox is finally planning it all out, DofP just needs to straighten everything out. For the unnamed film, it could only be Deadpool or XForce, right? Unless it is a third XMen film since the Apocalypse film is being called an "in-between-quel" whatever that hell that means.

 

[Neo_Version 7]

Deadpool is corny. XForce could work. But it would make sense for them to do a Fantastic Four // X-Men team-up, right? Fox owns both properties anyway and has a hard-on for Marvel/Disney's approach to crossover movies

 

[RFX45]

At this point, they can certainly mash-up XMen and F4 and I think that has been brought up by someone at Fox too. It's a possibility to give Galactus some justice, who cares if the Avengers aren't there to help, F4 and XMen should be fine and badass.

I'm just not sure yet if they can pull it off. Going to have to see how DofP turns out and the new F4 reboot works.

 

[Neo_Version 7]

Whatever Fox decides to do, at least they have a decent amount of characters and storylines to use with F4 and mutant universe at their disposal. God bless Sony for attempting to build a cinematic universe around Spider-Man

 

[RFX45]

I'm actually excited to see a stand-alone Venom film. Sinister 6 too, I mean they only have a right to SpideyUniverse and it;s a cash cow so why not?

So far, Sonys been much better than Fox when it comes to Marvel films anyways.

Marvel/Disney > Sony > Fox

 

[Neo_Version 7]

Yeah Spider-Man 3 did wonders for Sony

 

[RFX45]

Yah but S1, S2 and ASM are all good, S2 is still one of the best comic book films out there. They are 3-1.

X1 and X2 are good but are getting a bit dated now. X3 and Origins almost killed the whole X-franchise while F4 and F4:2 already killed that franchise. First Class was good and I liked Wolverine though this seems 50/50 with people. Daredevil and Elektra are actually made by Fox too. So far Fox is really 4-6.

Then you have this to look forward to with DofP:

While Marvel simply goes, yah Quicksilver is just a member of the Enterprise and still be 100x better than Fox's version.

 

[El Argentino]

Was just going to comment on the Quicksilver dilemma on seeing that mag cover again and the concept art video, but beat to it.

 

[Neo_Version 7]

I must be in the minority then because I thought Amazing Spider-Man was pretty bad. The only good thing about that movie was Denis Leary

 

[RFX45]

SM is 50/50, it's like the MoS film. Plenty hated it and thought it was unnecessary reboot and people are even more mad that his slogan wasn't used (with great power, blah blah blah). On the other hand, others love it because it is a "truer" Spidey due to him actually joking around and being more sarcastic than ever and other just really hated Tobey and the Emo Peter really got under peoples skin.

 

[SixOhNine]

When's that Ant Man movie with Paul Rudd supposed to be released?
