Oh fuck. Well, my speculation remains if the character is recast.

There should really be more speculation than what I've seen since this was announced.

In fact, people just sorta glossed over news of a direct fucking link between Sony's new Spidey-verse and Marvel/Disney's Movie-verse. And now a known Hydra villain is going to play a part in The Wolverine - a story very much based on the Japan arc, making Viper a delayed even off-tone inclusion.

Why was that?


Because while Viper has connections to hydra, she is more of a stand alone villain than say Baron Von Strucker. You can easily do Viper without even mentioning Hydra.

Oh okay.

It is an alien shoe that makes the wearer run superfast. They are using it to introduce Quicksilver into the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Even though he should be owned by Fox with their X-Men rights, they somehow found a loophole to use the character because of his Avengers connections. Obviously his origin has been changed.

Kalyx triaD 07-18-2012 11:32 PM

Also Batman is in it.

Krimzon7 07-19-2012 12:57 PM

And Spawn.

Shadow 07-19-2012 04:44 PM

And also Ash.

Lock Jaw 07-19-2012 04:51 PM

Stop trying to confuse the poor guy.

What about Chuck Norris?

dronepool 07-20-2012 08:24 PM

Chuck Norris is an asshole.

Looks a little better than in the Comic-Con display. Still too much gold, though.

Kalyx triaD 07-28-2012 01:40 AM

Dammit, Superherohype. I thought that was adjusted.

Sixx 07-31-2012 11:50 AM

Does anyone know if there's a good version of Avengers to download already?

Kalyx triaD 07-31-2012 01:09 PM

DVD rips should be out in a few months.

Lock Jaw 07-31-2012 04:33 PM

Scheduled for release on "Home Video" on September 25, so there probably won't be anything until closer to that time.

Sixx 07-31-2012 07:06 PM

Damn, you could usually find whatever versions other than cam like a month after the movie premiere.

Waiting till Sept. 25 is gonna suck.

Lock Jaw 07-31-2012 07:28 PM

Sometimes you will find an R5 leaked version way earlier than the DVD release, but I have not seen any from Avengers.

Sixx 07-31-2012 08:14 PM

I'd appreciate if you let me know when you do.

Lock Jaw 07-31-2012 08:25 PM

You could have just seen it in the theaters.

Schlomey 07-31-2012 10:08 PM

Anyone have thoughts on the new Marvel NOW initiative beginning in October? If you don't know what it is go to Marvel.com they have a lovely front page story with interview.

Inadequacy 07-31-2012 10:22 PM

As long as Dan Slott stays on Spiderman I don't really care what happens

I was already trying to have a smaller pull list because of my deflation in enthusiasm and interest in most books, I can actually wait longer to pick up my monthlies without being on the edge now. I mean sure, I'm curious to what happens in Marvel and how characters I know evolve but it doesn't feel like I 'must' stay on top of things every week.

So this news of 'relaunched' books doesn't get my that excited, sure I'm enjoying Avengers vs X-Men (I still need to pick up issue 6 and 7) but I have no desire to go for the long haul on any of the new books so far unless the ones I already get end up getting relaunched (Uncanny X-Force, Deadpool, Amazing Spider-Man) If anything, I can just pick up a few trades at half price 2 or 3 months later and if I like it, keep buying the volumes over singles.

SICK BURN

Polish prisons suck, as they didn't think of having theaters.

What kind of treatment is that?

loopydate 08-01-2012 11:25 AM

It's still in some theaters.

Sixx 08-01-2012 11:26 AM

Oh.

I'd say cruel and unusual!

Schlomey 08-02-2012 08:10 AM

Picked up The Avengers: the initiative books 1 thru like 14 at my public library. So far so good!

Kalyx triaD 08-02-2012 11:50 AM

Get used to this guy:

http://img.gawkerassets.com/img/17uq...g/original.jpg

...And the fact that Christopher Eccleston (GI Joe: Rise of Cobra's Destro) will portray him.

Also the sequel to First Class will indeed be based on Days of Future Past. I suspect they will use to this to fully reboot/remix/combine their two main X-Men movie timelines. Bryan Singer also mentioned diverging Fox's X-franchise into it's own Cinematic Universe like the Avengers movie-verse. While this pretty much shuts down any chance of seeing Wolverine in the Avengers, it does mean there could be movies highlighting our favorite mutants (a proper Gambit and Deadpool for sure).

DaveBrawl 08-02-2012 03:46 PM

Finally a reason to care about Venom.

Sixx 08-02-2012 03:48 PM

What's the point of this session?

Kalyx probably has a boner for Venom, cause he's black.

Kalyx triaD 08-02-2012 03:51 PM

Venom's a white jock now. I like black jocks.

Sixx 08-02-2012 04:28 PM

I meant the symbiote.

Kalyx triaD 08-02-2012 04:50 PM

There some connection between black people and alien slime I don't know about?

Sixx 08-02-2012 04:56 PM

Both are black.

And both love watermelon.

Kalyx triaD 08-02-2012 05:14 PM

Ah the racist thing. I missed that. Very good show.
