Sorry pal, but if Azathoth tries to eat our planet again, you’re good to go, but as it stands now, unless the lawyers make a blunder, you’re out of the group!
Well, finally saw that Avengers movie and I really have to say the reviews are right! Probably the best movie out this year! Excellent casting and great story! I think the mashup of characters was also pretty good. Oh, and this is probably the first time since the TV series that I’ve actually liked the Hulk. I don’t really get why they like messing with his scaling, like in some movies he’s 3 stories tall and yet fits through doors…
Overall, can’t really come up with anything negative.
Well… There is the whole thing about, ya know, Spiderman and Wolverine both being MIA, but what can ya do? Ok, so according to Movie Bob (go watch his vids!), dispite almost all Marvel characters being in the Avengers at one point or another, NONE of them will ever be in a movie together! Ever! This is because of the way the movie studios purchase the licensing rights. Even though they all belong to Marvel, for the purposes of making movies, the characters have all been cut up and handed out to separate studios. So Avengers is distributed by Disney (though all the individual characters are owned by Paramount), Columbia owns Spiderman, Fox owns Fantastic Four and Xmen, and so on. And unless these studios can get together, there won’t be any crossovers. A real shame, but what can ya do?
So instead of a poll, I’d like to toss out a question:
Who’s your favorite super hero and why?
and where was knight rider? (flame skull guy) also iron man and black widow favrite avengers
Ah yes, Ghost Rider… well… he’s in in the pot with Columbia so… he can do a crossover with Spiderman! but not Avengers. >\
Iron Man is always a favorite (movies). I don’t really know about black widow and that other guy, they didn’t develop their characters very well so I didn’t connect with them. probably my favorite was the Hulk, which is strange since I’ve not really been into the other Hulk movies.
Ah….again with the Greed blocking the way of awesomeness.
I suppose it is too much to hope for those Suits in the big offices to work together and create something amazing in a coalition of effort….We wouldn’t want to see they’ve grown a ”passion/compassion” *gasp* !
ha! yeah, you’re asking way too much! sadly it isn’t about the art/story, rather the money it makes or loses.
I guess it “could” be done, but it would be an absolute legal nightmare! think of all the variables that have to go into it! I mean, how would they split up the profits/costs? say you have Spiderman join the Avengers… Columbia would want a cut, so do they base it off a percentage? what if he only has a little air time and Paramount gets ripped off? what if he steals the show and becomes the best part of it, upping sales dramatically and so Columbia gets ripped off? and what if they do it based on screen time? I’m sure they would throw a fit every time spidey gets edited.
man… I just don’t know. you’d need your own super powered legal team just to work out the details. granted, it’s not impossible, but I guess the more hands you stick into the pot, the more complicated it becomes.
I wish they would all just get over it and figure something out, because a massive superhero battle with crossovers galore would be epic!
Only solution then……Marvel open it’s own studio and gather his character ownerships under it…create the Marvel Universe in the whitescreen ! ….
Yes , I am wielding my sword and shield while I am writing this and expecting and invitation for being a henchman of the bad guys in the movies……Don’t judge me ! O.o
Iron Man, Tony Stark, he’s the best out of the bunch because there’s no way to combat his “power” he’s just a genius, take away all technology from him and he’ll make a computer out of twigs.
ha! he’s like mcguyver with a goatee! but yeah, that really is his super power isn’t it? wonder how he’d fair against batman… hmm…
He actually does have one weakness, shown in both iron man movies. His nearly crippling alcoholism! So, in all actuality, you only need to give him massive amounts of alcohol or completely cut off his supply of alcohol. If he’s drunk, he sucks with his suit. And I don’t think I need to mention how functional an alcoholic who is detoxing is. ;) Just some food for thought!
lol! very good point!
my favourite superhero has to be…. teranaeus! My Champions Online archangel gunslinger….
oh wait you meant in comics?
darn…..
lol!
man, I love Champ Online! though I do end up spending more time trying to design a character than I do playing…
It’s hard to say… I guess a tie between Iron Man and Guy Gardner(Green Lantern).
I’ll second that Iron Man one! >)
After Iron Man my short list contains The Punisher, Ghost Rider and everyone’s favorite schizophrenic, the indomitable mercenary in white - Moon Knight :P
much better than the full moon knight!
Also keep in mind that the only original Avenger that was not in the movie was actually AntMan. Spiddy and Wolverine are both later addition add ons (really late additions at that) original Avengers have been Ironman, thor, hulk, antman, and hawkeye, adding black canary and the android dude later in the first year (android dudes name I dont remember)
