It's a shame they're going to dumb down the second Hulk movie :(
I never saw this one coming,but DH says that a script is being worked on for a Magneto movie: :wtf:

Twentieth Century Fox has picked Sheldon Turner to draft "Magneto," an action-thriller spin-off based on the villainous character played in the first two "X-Men" films by Ian McKellen according to Variety.
This would be the third "X-Men" movie project currently in development alongside a third "X-Men" penned by Simon Kinberg and a separate "Wolverine" spin-off by "Troy" scribe David Benioff. Turner recently scripted the Adam Sandler remake of "The Longest Yard," rewrote "The Amityville Horror" and drafted a prequel to "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre."
The film will be a prequel as such to the first "X-Men" film and start off around that film's prologue which showed him as a child being led to a concentration camp by Nazis. As the character will be young, it's not clear whether McKellen will be in the film at all.
The storyline will heavily involve Professor X who was a soldier in the allied force that liberated the concentration camps. The professor meets Magneto after the war, and while they bond over the realization that they are alike in their special powers, their differences soon turn them into enemies.
I don't think Magneto warrants his own movie. Just do an R rated Wolverine Marvel and that's it.
Meh.
Wolvie makes sense, this, not so much. Not like they should really be hurting for Marvel franchises to draw from before resorting to somewhat questionable spin-offs.
Batman > Marvel's entire catalogue
Batman > * (excepting Wesley Willis, who whupped his ass)Quote:

A Captain America movie would be a hit with the gay and pedophile communities, if Bucky's in it.
More like Batman's rogues gallery > Marvel's entire rogues gallery.
Hero-wise I like Spidey a little better, but Batman has better villains than anyone, and a hero's only as good as the people he has to outsmart and defeat.
I'd like to see Omega Red in the Wolverine movie.
Well DC only has Batman and Superman to bank on for their smash hits like Marvel has Spiderman and X-Men so they HAVE to make those two character films awesome. DC could make a really awesome Flash movie if they tried and even a Green Lantern/Teen Titans one.
Well it won't be Lady Deathstrike, since they burned that bridge in X2.Quote:
