he's a guy that stole Pym's gear during the Civil War, while Pym was out being Yellowjacket. He used the gear to do stupid shit that you'd imagine the average guy who wasn't a super hero but could shrink to the size of an ant would do. He kept getting tangled up in superhero and supervillian stuff though.

Quote:

Eric O'Grady is a low-level agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. who stumbles upon Dr. Henry Pym's latest incarnation of the Ant-Man suit in S.H.I.E.L.D.'s headquarters. A man of very few morals and willingness to lie, cheat, steal, and manipulate in order to get ahead in life, Eric immediately steals the armor for his own selfish plans, which include using his status as a "super-hero" to stalk women and facilitate his thievery. He eventually has a change of heart, and resolves to become a better person and renounce his past life.

I wouldn't mind seeing this happen if it is true. The first Daredevil and Ghost Rider were mediocre at best, but I still have hope for a decent sequel. They are both interesting characters, and if they follow Dark Knight's example they could both be great.

I kinda liked daredevil. Ghost Rider was Baaad though.

my friend keith watched it after eating mushrooms though, and to this day it is still the funniest thing that I have ever witnessed.

"his.... hands are ON FIRE! oh fuck his FACE is on fire!"

I may have mentioned this before, but mushrooms + Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II will make everything else in the world stale and unsatisfying due to the unsafe amounts of hilarity it provokes.

I must try this.

28 days later was a huge mistake on my behalf.

If they're doing another Ghost Rider it has to be completely different. No fucking Nick Cage. The first movie should be about the Johnny Blaze comics, and then there would be a sequel about the present version.

A spin-off Venom movie is under development! Scriptwriters Paul Wernick and Rhett Reese have been working on the screenplay of the film

Paul Wernick told to Sci-Fi wire:

“We’ve written two drafts of Venom, and the studio has it, and they’re pushing forward in whatever ways they push forward.”
Scriptwriter Paul Wernick

No word about the story would be linked to Spiderman 3 or Spiderman 4…

There should be a movie of the Venom/Hobgoblin team up.

I agree, Carnage really fits Raimi's warped sense of horror/humor.

not really. raimi is into anamatronic skeletons and trees raping rednecks. it's more slapstick. carnage is known for tearing people apart and bathing in their blood.

they will NEVER be able to successfully put carnage in a PG-13 movie.

you know i'm not much of a blood n' gore guy and yet carnage is my favorite spidey villain. Go figure. BTW FNJ, is Maximum Carnage in trade paper back?

no need, apparently it has been put into trade paper back. If it's still in print is the question. I'm going to guess yes since it is one of the better know Spiderman arcs from the 1990s.

Almost everything has been put into a collected volume and is still in print, you may have to order direct from marvel though.

Everything EXCEPT Zen and Violence, fucking DC.

"The Flash" movie out of interest by the WB?

It may be in development, but it looks like the project bringing DC superhero "The Flash" to the big screen might be on the ropes.

Producer Charles Roven told IGN: "Warner Bros. came to me and said, ‘The work that you’ve been doing hasn’t yet resulted in something that any of us, including the filmmaking team, feel could be greenlit as a movie. We’re trying to accomplish something that takes into account the entire, rich DC character world, and we’d like to pull it back.".

Recently they changed producers and an additional writer, will it get the greenlit? Time will tell...

Gary Ross to write and (possibly) direct 'Venom'

Venom might be one of Spider-Man's arch enemies, and Gary Ross will be writing the script for the movie... and possibly to direct the film, which would be his first since 2003's "Seabiscuit".

The studio who are making the Venom movie, are not commenting Ross' role at the moment. Gary is already writing for the next Spider-Man movie.

How do you go from Dracula to a movie about a boy who looks 40 but is actually 10?

Take that?

Sooooo from what I understand they're wanting to make the Lobo movie PG-13. Also this guy is going to be Thor.

On the bright side, Ryan Reynolds is playing Hal Jordan. I can actually see that one.

All I want is a 3 part Infinity Gauntlet movie is that so much to ask? lol

Posted: Oct 12 2009 09:21 pm

I don't think PG-13 is good. If the movie is not flooded with unnessesary violence it will have no reason to exist......
