Welcome to the main discussion thread for the Marvel Cinematic Universe! This pinned post is here to establish some basic guidelines. All of the Media Forum rules
still apply.
- This thread is for talking about the live-action films, TV shows, animated works, and related content that use the Marvel brand, currently owned by Disney.
- While mild digressions are okay, discussion of the comic books should go in this thread
. Extended digressions may be thumped as off-topic.
- Spoilers for new releases should not be discussed without spoiler tagging for at least two weeks. Rather, each title should have a dedicated thread where that sort of conversation is held. We can mention new releases in a general sense, but please be courteous to people who don't want to be spoiled.
If you're posting tagged spoilers, make sure that the film or series is clearly identified outside the spoiler tagging. People need to know what will be spoiled before they choose to read the post.

The world will look up and shout "Save us", and I'll look down and whisper "Too bad, Waluigi Time" Vote Loki 2016Dylan O'Brien? That guy from Teen Wolf? Why does everybody and their mother want him to be Peter?
Why not Tyler Posey, the dude who plays the main character in Teen Wolf, instead?

I'm not sure why some random dude on Reddit is anymore a reputable source than a shitty gossip site.
Especially when someone claiming to be an ex-Marvel employee was on Reddit the other day spouting some obviously fake spoilers.
Fancasters have limited tastes. Remember when everyone was saying Nathan Fillion should be Green Lantern? Or Ant-Man? Or Captain America?

I think he'd be good, as I said before
.
I mean, his two biggest roles combined would basically equal a non-powered Spidey, so he seems like a good pick.
So James Gunn held a Q&A on Twitter and someone asked him if he has a favorite superhero. He replied by saying yes and that he'll be introducing said character in Guardians 2.
Now he just posted this
. Hmmm....

Well, of all those names which are thrown around, Dylan whoever is the one I like the best, simply because he has the right build and the right hands (yeah, still obsessing over this point), and I think he would have no trouble with the physical part of Spider-man. But I am not particularly passionate about the casting. I trust Marvel that they'll get it right. And if they find a really young, talented actor, I would be totally okay with it. The younger, the better.
There's something I'm confused about in regards to the rights issue. I've heard lots of conflicting reports on which company owns the film rights to the Skrulls. Some people say that Fox completely owns them, while others have said that it's a joint-ownership much like Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch. So I'm pretty confused and I can't find out which one is true. If anyone could help out, that would be appreciated.

He since shot that down an said he hasn't even met with them yet
, though Deadline claims he's in "very early" talks.

He did say that, but I generally don't take such statements as absolute truth. It's possible that what he said was true at the time, but plans have changed. Or he may of downplayed the possibility of additional Earth-born heroes so they can have more fun with the reveal down the road.
I've only recently started paying close attention to movie development, but from my experiences in the video game world, these sorts of things happen all the time. If a developer wants to keep something secret, they'll not only say it's not happening but give seemingly valid reasons as to why it's not happening. But then down the road we find out that they were in fact working on it the whole time.

I thought that Gamora had plenty to do, to be honest. And how long ago was that article?
This is a pretty good resource.

YMMV. I personally found her arc and character cliché in a way that couldn't be saved by humor, and don't think she got enough fight scenes.

If it wasn't that video I posted
up toplast page that he was hinting at it's probably him revealing that he's going to cameo in Ant-Man or something.edited 2nd Mar '15 1:20:57 PM by LordofLore
