Selz Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 I can't be the only one tired of this mess.... it's like, is this the best Hollywood can do now?? I was watching a movie awards a while back and they had a section on forthcoming movies.... I swear 95% of that shit was to do with comic books Where's the Oscar-worthy Hurt Locker-type stuff?

Rock & Roll Hall of Game Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 I don't think they're for British people or females.. Comic books are a male American thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laveaux Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 it is getting to be to much now, but as long as they continue to do well at the box office they wont be going anywhere soon. I do want to see The Dark Knight Rises though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Selz Posted October 20, 2011 Author Share Posted October 20, 2011 Don't get me wrong, I loved Spiderman... for a fashion... but most of them are kinda eh. I have nothing against fantasy movies though, I loved the HP and LOTR films. I grew up on LOTR and The Hobbit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bu. Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 I'm tired of them. First it was Japanese horror remakes...then remakes in general (which they still do) and now comic book adaptations. Lame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bailey Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 Only if they're not good, it's too many sure, but some should never be made anyway, I wonder do Hollywood exes study anything about their audiences because they spend millions to make a flop?

Bailey Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 Which movie are u referring to? Catwoman? boo boo it's too many to name ergo the reason this thread exists. I mean that Wonder Woman pilot they were trying, that shit never made it past "look at her costume though" that shit Ryan Reyolds did, he needs to stick to romantic comedies. I mean it's just way too many, the last Spiderman was a mess, I read a review about it because they are talking about the reboot with the new guy, and they said the same shit I thought, too many plot lines, too much going on. The new Spiderman won't even have a Mary Jane, but Game boo, let me tell you the new guy in that costume the pic I saw his ass was on point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kidfresh832 Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 They going for a more rugged burly Superman this time.... awwwrite now Henry cavill. If he stays sweaty and shirtless half the movie it might be worth it. He got big as fuck since The Tudors, for this role. He looks better cleaned up though.

How is that a flop That's ur opinion but Spiderman didn't flop... I don't think u know what ur talking about Green Lantern Movie barely profited. A lot of these big budget superhero movies manage to have generally high gross numbers, but you have to look at the budget to try to measure it's success. For example, Batman and Robin manages to have high grossing numbers, but it was critically panned, saw a lower return than some it its predecessors, and killed any prospects of another Batman movie in the near futures.

Illi Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 I think a Wonder Woman film would've done ok, but the way that TV show was handled, probably threw any potential out of the window in near future. If this trend continues within the next 10-15 years, a Wonder Woman movie might be reconsidered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angela Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 I don't mind as long as the casting is right. The Green Lantern was an epic fail in that regard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
