Topic: A good year for geeks. | |
---|---|
So, this year there's "The Avengers" coming out, "The Amazing Spider-Man", and the much anticipated "The Dark Knight Rises".
As a long-time fan of the comics and characters, I'd call this a good year (film-wise) for any other geeks. ![]() Anyone else feel the same? Discuss. |

Pretty excited about the dark knight and avengers. Not so much Spider man. It lookks good but just catch it when it comes out on tv. I just don't like it when they reboot a movie after a couple of years. And look at the new spider man.
You mean to tell me he would be geek instead of a jock? |
|
|
|
Parker's always been a geek, of course.
The reboot unfortunately was inevitable. Sony would have lost the rights if they didn't reboot. |
|
|

Spiderman a jock? Wut.
The Avengers looks epic. Also, I haven't seen Ghost Rider yet, but haven't really heard any positive or negative reviews. And the new Underworld is coming soon, if I'm not mistaken. Yes. |
|
|
|
Its just the way he looks. Into days world(Okay well I mean the movie world) I don't think he wouldn't be considered a geek. I just think they need to find someone who looks like one.
I hear a terminator reboot is in the future. James cameron should of never gave the scirpt away. |

The new Underworld is out already I believe.
I wish I could be interested in Ghost Rider, but... they somewhat rebooted yet kept Nicholas Cage as him... what the f-ck. Granted Cage might not have been what went wrong with the first Ghost Rider, but he was still not right for it. |

Nic Cage is a huge fan of Ghost Rider so I think they would have to kill him before they could get someone else in the role.

I have to say that I was really disappointed with the first Ghost Rider film which began and ended with Nicolas Cage and Eva Mendes.
I don’t have high hopes for the 2nd film Spirit of Vengence for the very same reason but will watch regardless. I wonder if the film(s) would have ever been made if he (Nicolas Cage) hadn’t been involved...either way, he should have done a Blade and not made a PG-13 rated film. Thankfully, I’ve still got the Xmen (although wasn’t thrilled with First Class), Wolverine, the Iron Man’s - yay, gotta love me some Hugh Jackman and Robert Downey Jr ![]() Although Capt America and the Fantastic Four weren’t totally terrible...the FF films I enjoyed just because they were just on the good side of bad. I'm holding my breath that the Avengers flick won't be an ego fest ![]() |

Superman and Superman II still remain my favorite superhero flicks.

Superman 2 is my all time fav out of the Superman films but also liked Superman Returns (2006).

Although Capt America and the Fantastic Four weren’t totally terrible...the FF films I enjoyed just because they were just on the good side of bad. For so bad it's good super hero flick- nothing beats Fantastic Four, but not the one from the 2000's, the one from 1994: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r_X5C6e3ZeY |

I love Flash Gordon, the 80's movie, and the old clunky serials with Buster Crabbe.
Another great bad superhero-fest: Legends Of The Superheroes, only in the 70's would they try to make a variety show with superheroes. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bWyGdUVg-D0 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6zRQzHdAt2c |

Ah. I have to go see Underworld then. I enjoyed the first 3, I hope the new one doesn't ruin what they have going. It works.
Terminator needs to just stay retired. Ghost Rider...eh. Is it bad that I didn't hate the first one? ![]() Idk, I've always liked Spiderman more than Superman. Superman's great and all, we get it, you've got awesome powers dude, sweet... ![]() There's a Green Lantern movie? Oh. |
|
|
|
Don't get me started on Green Lantern...Ryan Reynolds..
![]() Couldn't even bring myself to watch the Green Hornet. |
