I am so nerdishly thrilled with how they've put the Marvel universe onscreen the past few years. Some of the movies have been better than others, but the overall feel has been really great. I wish they could get the rights back for The Fantastic Four and Daredevil, etc., and blow the whole thing up to its deserved size.

But as far as the next Avengers movie, yeah...super pumped to see where they go with the villain.
Spoiler: show
Thanos
is one of my all time favorites and I can't wait to see him realized on screen.

Daredevils coming back
FF is do for a reboot
and Fox FINALLY hired on Mark Millar (the man behind the Marvel Civil War cross over event that killed Steve Rogers (to which I still say he should have stayed dead longer, that was so well written)) to come on and help over see the Marvel movies Fox owns... which means hes also working on the X-men movies, next of which, is
X-men : Days of Futures Past - which will most likely feature the cast of the first 3 movies, AND the cast of the First Class movie... (got all that?)

and The Wolverine is just about done wraping up shooting, and looks to be AWESOME!

I knew FF and Daredevil were probably coming back, but I was not enthusiastic with them being @ Fox. I have higher hopes w/ Millar being involved, but I still wish all the properties were under one studio. How crazy awesome would that be?

EDIT: Actually I just realized you meant that Daredevil is returning to Marvel Studios, that's cool.

i only had two disagreements with Daredevil


the fight he had with electra felt like a there should have been a song and dance to it. never mind the fact that matt murdock goes to great lengths not to give away he has any type of advantage.


duncan as kingpin

everything else i thought was great, the telling of the movie (starting at the end then showing how it got to there), ben affleck as lead. how daredevil deals with his wounds etc..

The story was pretty bad, average and ben affleck and that costume...my god, that was awful.

I didn't think Daredevil was that great, but I didn't hate it like everyone else.

But Avengers II is further proof that DC, aside from Nolan's Batman, can't compete with Marvel's movies.

If Daredevil gets rebooted as well as Spider-Man was this year, I may need to buy some new pairs of pants.

I think the rights deadline was sometime in November, so probably.

I also hear about a forthcoming Ant-Man movie. I really hope that one's as bizarre as it deserves to be.

Fox is already in pre-production. Supposedly Max Landis is writing the screenplay, which is really exciting if true.

I have Chronicle sitting on my dvr I need to watch it. I just read Jonathan Hickman's complete run on F4 and I loved it so I'm kinda F4 crazy right now. Wish they could interact with the Marvel film characters.

They've been hinted at in Mark Waid's DD, which was nice.
