    Don't get me wrong, I'd love to see MODOK on film, zooming around shooting rockets out of his earmuffs, giving little kids nightmares. But that would be a pretty major stylistic departure from Winter Soldier.

    Then again, Winter Soldier was a pretty major departure from First Avenger. So maybe I'll just trust them to keep doing what they do well.

    Well they say the specific stumbling block is how to make MODOK work in the MCU context

    So it's on their minds

    Trick question, the answer is Dredd.

    Why watch a good movie

    When you could watch this

    Judge_Dredd_promo_poster.jpg

    No joke, I love Stallone's Judge Dredd as well.

    I've actually seen people say they like it better than the Urban version.

    Needless to say, I reported them to the nearest street judge for a sentence no less than five years in the iso cubes, with the possibility of on-the-spot execution.

    I like both for different reasons.

    But Urban's Dredd is the better film.

    That would have made sense to 15 year old me. Frank could be Old Rider with the Punisher Van as his vehicle, yes.

    But considering how many people he straight up murder's for being in the way/vaugley associated with crime, he more than likley has a few "innocents" on that leger. People pulled into crime because there was no other way/that's the environment they were raised in(see:every interaction with Frank and drug-dealers).

    My ideal end for Frank is when those "innocents"(Even though Frank dosen't percieve them that way) outweigh the good he's done and the Rider finally comes after him.

    That sounds like an awesome idea.
    The kind of idea where it's followed up by the thought "How has this not been done already?" It just seems like a natural pairing up. The Punisher becoming the incarnation of the Spirit of Vengeance once his body is so broken by his life long war against organized crime that it's the only way he can continue.

    I wonder how many undercover cops Frank has accidentally shot. I wonder if NYPD has a some sort of recommendation on if your undercover and the Punisher pops in. Do you drop cover and try to arrest him? Keep cover and try to shoot him? If he has disabled you and is about to shoot you, are you allowed to drop cover?

    just make him a giant head thing in a floating apparatus. he's constantly wheezing, can't even speak without the aid of machines. give him a voice like a cross between those things people who got mouth cancer use and Stephen Hawking. he'd be terrifying.

    A.I.M. isn't just an Iron Man villian.

    With Hydra outing itself and subsequently weakening itself, as well as the fallout after Avengers 2, the remnants of A.I.M. could see an opprotunity to step up and play with the big boys, so to speak.

    Killian was still a genius, and harvesting/salvaging his brain in order to lead A.I.M. "global subsidiaries" wouldn't be all that bad of a leap, especially since you could use that excuse for him to....not come back all that "right".

    Also the oh shit moment revealing Head Killian/Cyborg Killian/Whatever Killian as M.O.D.O.K would be TOTALLY WORTH IT.

    Because of course Killian would have a private island base and delusions of grandeur.

    Also ANXM:
    It's not really all that surprising he has no clue how to write X-23.

    She varies wildly since her original depection was "Deadpan/depressed fetish hooker who cuts herself to feel(to linkin park. Okay, she didn't, but she did)",while at the time was pretty awesome since it's basically the exact opposite of Wolverine, it's a HORRIBLE CHARACTER TYPE.

    So her solo series/every depiction since has been(understandably)running away from that at mach 30.

    She's kind of a non-entity at this point, since she varies from emotionally stunted teenager with problems who's being sheltered by Wolverine, to literally female Wolverine.

    So Bendis defaults to "Stock Woman dialoge 23".

    There's a balance there, between her NYC depiction and her literally Wolverine depiction, but no one has found it so far.

    I would have loved to have seen her and the NYC crew with the Runaways during it's prime.

    When she was introduced into the comics, she was a feral wolverine clone. Then Quesada made her a teenage prostitute for some idiotic reason. However, once she was written by Craig Kyle and Chris Yost, who created her in the cartoons, she got much better and they established her character. They basically turned her into a Spock + Roy Batty type character who's really intelligent and competent but has little real life experience and can't connect with other people on a meaningful level.

    However, things have been getting worse for her since her solo series ended. Writers keep forgetting that she's supposed to be smart and very competent, and turned up the Worf effect dial with her.

    Marvel gets the Fantastic Four rights back, and so Thor banishes him back to Midgard where he lands in Latveria, amassing a fortune over some years and learning magic before declaring himself their king.

    As cool as that would undoubtedly be, while MODOK and AIM are more than just Iron Man villains, Killian/Mandarin are not. It wouldn't sit right if Tony wasn't involved somehow, especially considering Killian would probably hold one hell of a vendetta.

    I wonder how many undercover cops Frank has accidentally shot. I wonder if NYPD has a some sort of recommendation on if your undercover and the Punisher pops in. Do you drop cover and try to arrest him? Keep cover and try to shoot him? If he has disabled you and is about to shoot you, are you allowed to drop cover?

    I would say blow your cover and attempt to arrest everyone there.

    You have a 60% chance of not only living, but everyone else agreeing to be arrested by you.

    Because getting arrested is a hell of alot better than being shot in the head by the Punisher. Also, that's incredibly interesting food for thought.
