I lied. I dont really like the V for Vagina flick. BUT it's okay. you still have good taste
I dont see what constitutes it as a bad movie as much as what constitutes it as a movie for idiots.
It's an ACTION movie.
In the opening of the novel, V kills three finger men and bounces with uh. His love or whatever.
In the movie equivalent he pantses a guy. You gotta admit everyone loled there. That was funny. Lol.
It doesn't make sense. Who in hollywood would want to make money off V for Vendetta? The story doesn't really spell prostitution. Why couldn't they just make another matrix sequel?
It was really good. The animation was a bit wonky in some places, but was smooth as a whole. The story was a very good re-imagining of Stephen's traditional origin, and Stephen himself was a huuuuuuge douche until he goes through his spiritual experience.
Nice nod to the fans at the end too.

Easily Marvel's best animated feature to date.

Frankly, I think at this point I like the V for Vendetta movie just as a big fuck you to Alan Moore.
That's right. Fuck Alan Moore.
If you don't want people tampering with your shit, then find a way to maintain intellectual control over it. otherwise, quit being such a bitch about it.

HHH as Thor so he can fight The Rock as Captain Marvel when they adapt Marvel vs DC as a movie

well, that's not the way the publishing world works all the time, sadly
and fortunately, he took your advice and now he'll only work with publishers that don't try and pump you in the butt for movie rights
I won't be upset if McKidd is cast, he'd do a damn good job.
I'd just prefer Bean.
Also, a "script review" of Thor, that is likely fake, but might as well be posted:
THE SPOILERS DOTH BEGINETH BELOW
THOR begins, simply enough, with a black screen and mystical narration, describing THE CREATION OF THE NINE WORLDS. The NINE WORLDS and its inhabitants are then introduced, each paragraph becoming so much more overwhelmingly verbose, that one can nearly hear the film's producers
scratching their collective heads from here.
From the inky void, the seers URD, VERDAND and SKULD describe the populating of the worlds, including A HUMONGOUS COW that feeds YMIR, the first FROST GIANT and his family. GNOMES and FAERIES come into the picture, followed by THE GODS OF ASGARD. There's some godly begetting that goes on - ODIN KING OF THE GODS follows and finally he begets our hero THOR. (Oh yeah, ODIN creates Man and Woman to worship him, too - lucky sod.)
The narration ends, and we are introduced to the adult THOR and LOKI , THOR'S BROTHER, THE WARRIORS THREE (FANDRAL, HOGUN and VOLSTAGG) ASGARD's MOST POPULAR BOY BAND - just kidding here, and BALDER, his advisor as they ride their great horses through SVARTALFHEIM in search of IVALDI, KING OF THE GNOMES.
At some point in the middle of THOR's thrilling battle with a HELL STAG (page 15, I think) I dropped my Norse Mythology for Dummies book in disgust and chucked my battered Engelsk-Norsk dictionary into the wastebasket.
They were slowing me down. I had a script to read and a review to write. Meanwhile, during the hell staggy conflict, THOR saves many gnomes, but his great wooden hammer is destroyed. IVALDI promises to make him a new hammer.
THIS ENDETH THE SPOILERS
THOR is a meaty script. Without doing any serious research, it certainly appears writer Protosevich has worked to recreate the legend as "accurately" as possible.
Nevertheless, I wished I had called Judy at Time-Life books and ordered their seventeen volume set of Norse Myths and Legends. I was already lost in the great confusion of so many throwaway names for so many things. Two pages after reading it, I couldn't even remember if LIDSKJALF was ODIN'S THRONE, or the Ligonberry jelly I bought at IKEA.
But this is not your father's THOR. It's not even Vincent D'Onofrio's THOR from Chris Columbus' ADVENTURES IN BABYSITTING. This is not THOR the superhero as portrayed in the Marvel comics - a god on Earth who performs super-heroic feats, rescues damsels in distresses, fights supervillains and does all of the usual stuff straight out of the “How To Be A Superhero Handbook.” This is the tale of THOR, son of Odin and Prince of Asgard and his journey from arrogant boob (not the good kind-sorry folks) to the true
heroic ideal.
This disappointed me. Despite the well-drawn characters and thrilling adventures , as I was reading the script, I kept wanting to see THOR in present day New York.
Another key element that was missing from the script for me was its portrayal of ASGARD somehow. I was hoping this ASGARD would be some how influenced by the work of THOR co-creator, the late great comic god Jack Kirby. But no, this version will give its Production Designer(s) the chance to create stunning richly detailed Nine Worlds more "realistically", and again, as a comic book geek I was disappointed. I really wanted to get my Kirby on here.
THOU ART MORE SPOILAGE BELOW
THOR gets his new hammer Mjolnir, goes a little bit nuts with it and is banished from Asgard, allowing LOKI to get all GRIMA WORMTONGUE and make plans to take over as ruler of ASGARD.THOR is humiliated and plot plot plot THOR is joined by THE WARRIORS THREE, plot plot plot and regains
his hammer. Theres are a lot of special effects as ASGARD goes to war and THOR faces the treacherous LOKI and there is the obligatory "A New Hero Is Born" ending.
THIS ENDETH THE PLOT SPOILAGE
The hard PG-13 / light R rated telling of THOR's story may be spectacular, but I can't see the movie becoming the next Spider-Man or even the next Ghost Rider for Marvel Films. I simply can't imagine a line of THOR action figures, fast food tie-in toys or any merchandising outside of a soundtrack. Not to mention there's no product placement possible with this script. Well maybe Scandinavian Airlines System or SAS, could get some ancillary action and offer THOR flights to famous fjords (like the one with
Slartibartfast's signature on the glacier)!

aren't you happy now
Yes, I'm very happy. Good for him.
Part of being a commercial artist is having your work turned into movies. If you don't like it, fine, go cry yourself to sleep on your money filled pillow.
The thing about Alan Moore is that he will always bitch about everything anyone ever does with his work, but that's his own fault for selling out. He could have just as easily drawn all these stories on the inside of discarded Big Mac containers while living under a bridge.

Ive really been enjoying the new Marvel animation releases. Ultimates 1 was very satisfying, but the sequel fell a little flat. The Black Panther is not an interesting character IMO. Iron Man did a nice job of making Tony look like a prick. I hadnt realized Strange had come out yet. Definitely adding it to Netflix.
hijinksensue I hope that your webcomic is made into a movie and every character is played by Abigail Breslin because Thor is awesome and Matthew Vaughan is a pretty rockin' director.

Also, man, Black Panther is pretty cool.
Black Panther never did anything for me. And I hope Jonathan Lipnicky stars opposite Abigail as the male lead.
and you have really bad taste, the first three Marvel movies were Average at best.
Dr. Strange is the first really good thing to come out of their animated movie line.
Bad taste...different taste, I suppose its all the same. 90% of comic adapted movies are shit and you know it. Cuddle up with a nice copy of Blade Trinity, some anal beads and a box of whine and make a night out of it.

I can like the movie and the book at the same time.
blasphemy! drag him out of town so we can stone his ass!
now the league of extraordinary gentlemen movie...there's a huge pile of crap
I hope I'm not the only one who wanted to punch Shane West in the face every time he was onscreen.

Well, it's not blasphemy so much as V not being a watchable movie when judged on its own merits.
It's because of that piece of crap I actually ended up calling two of my friends idiots.

HHH looks like Thor.
Yeah, we get it. However, he can't act for shit.
Matthew Vaughn is a competent director. He's not gonna cast a person who can't act as the title role.
But he has his own hammer! That kind of experience dosn't come along everyday.

Go watch Rome or Kingdom of Heaven and listen to him speak.
Just based on voice alone he should get the part.

Yeah the red hair and hideous looks definately fit you perfectly.

Jimmy is a likeable guy though.

Is it because it's a comic book movie? If Robert Downey Jr. and Ed Norton can do it I'm pretty damn sure Sean Bean would be willing.
i am also rorschach's height and have a serious look all the time
i'd need training
but it would be perfect
except i would pet the dogs instead of killing them
I'm basing it off of official unofficial rumors.
Now if in the next few weeks Timmy's Official Super Movie Rumor Site says that Sean Bean is currently in talks about the movie, I'll change my tune.

Matthew Vaughn is directing and he did some fantastic magical things in Stardust.
If the "leaked" script is any indicator it's focusing on the mythological aspect of Thor as opposed to the superheroic aspects.
and if the rumors prove true McKidd could be Thor which would be great casting.
Also, man, Black Panther is pretty cool.
Dr. Strange is the first really good thing to come out of their animated movie line.
