The All About Comic Book Movies Thread

My ideal movies would have The Joker as the main villain in The Dark Knight, and introduce Harvey Dent and maybe The Penguin as supporting cast. Batman 3 would introduce Two-Face and maybe The Riddler, with Joker and Penguin as supporting cast. Leaving Batman 4... (yes, a fourth one) with Bane as the main villain who breaks open Arkham. I would have loved this.

Interesting. I have a copy of their Plastic Man script and I presumed it was an abandoned project. I don't like Keanu as Plastic Man though.

No. No Keanu. I'd take Jim Carrey or Johnny Knoxville, someone along those lines but for some reason they think it's a good idea to have the most emotional and wacky character in comics played by 'Whoa'.
 
A review of The Spirit trailer by someone from ObsessedWithFilm.com (including trailer):
Ah, Mr. Frank Miller - I didn't realise your solo directing debut was actually for a commercial. Good job on the weird psychedelic images, the "beer commercial" music and the over the top short story of a guy who is attracted to all kinds of women.
Is this a commercial for The Spirit, a new kind of deodorant?

Because this can't be a trailer for a movie, can it?
That is just bizarre.
If you are at all a fan of Will Eisner's original incarnation of The Spirit universe then it's officially time to get pissed at this. As has happened so many times in Frank Miller's writing career in comics, his own desire for promoting his own voice through other people's material has resulted in an absolute mess which does nothing but appease Miller's weird artistic taste.
Is this really the movie you have been itching to make as your long awaited solo film directing debut?
Everything seems awkward, the backgrounds are horrible… it's so ****ing boring. Nothing is going on, what is Denny Colt's motivations here? He is suppose to be a detective coming back from the dead to fight crime in the shadows, not some kind of porn star who is trying to bed as many women as he can.
This is insulting. What the **** have they done with The Spirit?

Casting anyone other than Jim Carrey as Plastic Man would be a sad, pointless little gesture.

Sorry P-man I have to disagree. There is another









































Think about it, Who else would be more convincing as man of plastic?

Jake Gyllenhaal suddenly seems like someone they should be considering for Thor.

Dye that hair blonde/dirty blonde and he could make a good Ultimate looking Thor (the look they should go with).


But as for that for Price of Persia? Looks cool.
 
I think all the grief that picture is getting across the Internets has something to do with the fact that he's not exactly posing for a promo shot, and as a result we have to see him look candidly unpleasant and squinty.
