mr insomniac Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 Thor Strikes Hollywood I took this job because I thought you were just a legend. Just a story. A story to scare little kids. But you're the real deal. The demon who dares to challenge God. So what the hell do you want? Don't seem to me like you're out to make this stinkin' world a better place. Why you gotta kill all my men? Why you gotta kill me? Nothing personal. It's just revenge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blarghagh Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 Excellent! Soon they will run out of financially viable superheroes and end up making a Deadpool movie! Of course, it will be a terrible cash-grab. *cries* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkan Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 Come on...you really didnt see this coming? "Of course the people don't want war. But after all, it's the leaders of the country who determine the policy, and it's always a simple matter to drag the people along whether it's a democracy, a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism, and exposing the country to greater danger." - Herman Goering at the Nuremberg trials "I have also been slowly coming to the realisation that knowledge and happiness are not necessarily coincident, and quite often mutually exclusive" - meta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaftan Barlast Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 Oh FFS!! Thor is one of the most retarded superheroes Marvel has ever created, what kind of sales statistics glitch caused this idea to surface? I know the Fantastic Four films were done because issue #1 of Ultimate FF sold more than Spiderman(but then plummeted like a drunk seagull), but this is just crazy. I doubt I'll even bother to download this. THOR?!!! WHAT ARE THEY THINKING?!!

SteveThaiBinh Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 THOR?!!! WHAT ARE THEY THINKING?!! That people will pay to watch any old tosh? You don't really see that many films of the old Greek, Roman and Norse legends, do you? Aside from Clash of the Titans, perhaps. Maybe that will be the next money-grabbing formula once (and this will probably be very soon) the superheroes have had their day. "An electric puddle is not what I need right now."

Kaftan Barlast Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 But we're talking a comicbook character so unpopular and so out of touch with the times that Marvel killed him off years ago.

Musopticon? Posted August 13, 2007 Share Posted August 13, 2007 Also, did I read wrong from that news post or is Will Smith doing "I Am Legend"-film? Because if he is, I'm going to eat his face and piss on his grave. There'll be never, ever be a worthy movie rendition of the book, never. Please don't take a leak on my favorite books constantly, Hollywood, you are doing such a bad job at it. kirottu said: I was raised by polar bears.

Kaftan Barlast Posted August 13, 2007 Share Posted August 13, 2007 (edited) Wade Wilson is awesomest. The problem with a Deadpool movie is that Im not sure it would survive hollywoodisation. Theyd cast Jim Carey as Wilson and then force a completely inane lovestory into it Will Smith definently suffer from reversed-midas touch, he effectively ruins every movie he's in. I bet he wouldnt even manage to pull off a credible performance if he so played himself "Fresh prince in Bel Air, the movie".

Oerwinde Posted August 13, 2007 Share Posted August 13, 2007 Personally I'm extremely excited about this. The script is supposedly the best of any comic movie to date. Deals mostly with the origins and dealings of the norse gods, ending with Thor's fall to earth and imprisonment in a mortal body. The area between the balls and the butt is a hotbed of terrorist activity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaftan Barlast Posted August 13, 2007 Share Posted August 13, 2007 I think Hollywood should leave our gods alone. Personally I'm extremely excited about this. The script is supposedly the best of any comic movie to date. Deals mostly with the origins and dealings of the norse gods, ending with Thor's fall to earth and imprisonment in a mortal body. ...after which he spends his time battling giant robots, dr doom, the latest skrull invasion, moleman and other common staples of norse mythology. I really liked the Ultimates version of him where he's just a derranged norweigan guy callen Thorleif who thinks he's the god of thunder (yes, then they had to go ruin that by making that be Loki changing reality around and Thor actually being Thor.. which was totally gay.)

mr insomniac Posted August 13, 2007 Author Share Posted August 13, 2007 Is anyone else mildly irritated by how mainstream normals have adopted comic books and the Lord of the Rings? I spent the best part of my youth being enthusiastically mocked for enjoying both and now suddenly my contemporaries are taking their kids into it? Pshaw I say. Other than reading Batman as a kid I was never really into comic books much. But "mainstream normals" getting into Lord of the Rings doesn't bother me so much. They are entertaining movies, and have encouraged people to read the books, who otherwise might not have ever picked it up. Nothing wrong with that, as it's a great story. To use my niece as an example; she's 11 and has nearly finished reading The Hobbit, where normally it's tough to get her away from her video games. I took this job because I thought you were just a legend. Just a story. A story to scare little kids. But you're the real deal. The demon who dares to challenge God. So what the hell do you want?

There doesn't even have to be a plot, just swordmurder and wacko quips and constant breaking of fourth wall. I've always had a vision of how a possible Deadpool movie would end. He would narrate something to himself about how "his work was never done" and run away quickly. The next shot would be from in front of him, and he runs into the camera, which breaks and goes to black. In those last few moments before the credits begin rolling, Deadpool will exclaim "ow".

WILL THE ALMIGHTY Posted August 13, 2007 Share Posted August 13, 2007 Who's Thor? Its bad enough they made a movie about "Underdog", now I've barely even heard about this superhero. Whats next?

I don't want your damn lemons, what am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life's manager. Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons. Do you know who I am?
