Wolverine and the X-men. Yep, he's the whole team again. I liked the X-men when it wasn't just Logan and this weeks X-man vs. this weeks villian.
The rest looks alright.

Honestly, it's like they're throwing out all this stuff to make up for dropping comic sales or something.
I love Marvel, but damn, it's just getting ridiculous. I mean, honestly, we're getting a Moon Knight tv show.
Moon Knight aka White Batman
Next thing we know, the Falcon will be getting a tv show or movie.
At least Ironman is gonna rock, past that, I'm not sure I have faith in any other Marvel films.

Have faith in PYM!
I have faith in Ant-Man, but I may be a little biased since i love Henry Pym.

But an entire movie? There are so many other characters they could use ahead of him.

I love Ant-Man as well. But from a live action standpoint.
The movie will turn out one of two ways.
At best it will be a comedy version of Willard
At worst, it will be Blade Trinity all over again, only this time staring Will Ferrel.(Which if you think about it, that is highly possible)

If Ferrel gets attached to this then I am staying far away from it.
I hate..HATE...HATE Will Ferrel. I don't see how people find him funny. Everything he does seems so forced.
But, I happened to like Blade Trinity. It wasn't as good as Blade, but it was a lot better then Blade 2

Avengers live action sounds awsome. One thing I've found disapointing in the Marvel movies so far(haven't seen Blade 2/3 or Fantastic Four 2 yet) is the lack of continuity between films. I know they're supposed to be seperate entities, but a nod to another superhero movie would be nice, and it'd be cool if the Daily Bugle was the established New York newspaper you always see like in the comics. At least Franklin Richards name appered in a database in X2, that was cool.
And here's hoping Hulk 2 is better than the first one! The first one was just way to boring in my opinion, and the origin sucked.
Any idea when Moon Knight TV is suppsoed to start in 2008? I didn't really like the Blade TV series cause I'm not a Blade fan, but Moon Knight might be more my style.

Bout time, I've waited all my lif...
Wait didn't they already do that with David Hasslehoff?
Ahhh!! This is gonna be crap.
If they are gonna make garbage like that,
the least they could do is give us another Killer Tomato movie.
At least those had substance.

From what i've read (and someone can correct me on this), it's not really Hulk 2. I've gotten the impression they're simply not acknowledging that OTHER Hulk movie and that this is a fresh start again.

Now that I think about it, think I heard about that too. I guess that proves that the general consensus was that the last Hulk movie was pretty poor. I mean, some kind of variation of Absorbing Man being his father, come on!! Would have been cooler if Bill Goldberg(the former wrestler) would have been Absorbing man, cause I do remember reading years ago he was being considered for the part.
Nick Fury.

Actually, I watched that movie again earlier this year. That was my first reaction too, but when I watched it again and took it for what it was(a low budget made for TV film), it's actually pretty entertaining and quite comic accurate. And Gary Chalk, the good old voice of Optimus Primal/Prime guest stars in it, so that's always cool.
