Standing in Line?

[lovecraft68]

A small part of me kind of wants Mel Gibson to have a small cameo somewhere in the movie...

Have him step out of a car looking half crazed and delirious steps up to Charlie Theron and says..."what's your problem sugar tits?"

Followed by a her punching him out cold and nicking his car.

Why stop there? I think she should shoot him

Speaking of cameos...I love that they put Stan Lee in every Marvel movie somewhere. Its to the point you watch everything closely to see where he pops up

The best so far was one he and Lou Feregno were security guards in the Hulk movie

Big hero 6 - painting on the wall in a mansion...it was a blink and you miss it moment.

He's also in a framed picture, dressed up as a cop, deep in the background of a police station front desk scene in Daredevil.

How anyone saw it amazes me. It's so blurry it's almost indistinguishable, but someone pointed it out, and the executive producer confirmed it.

I saw it, but when we watched it at home. MY wife swore she caught it and paused it on the scene.

He was not in Ghost Rider 2 and I don't think 1 either....that's how bad they were.

Speaking of Daredevil....anyone see the new series yet? Its up to 13 episodes, but I'm finishing the run of Supernatural before I get into another series.

I was talking about the new Daredevil series, BTW. I like to forget the movie ever existed

Make a hole in your schedule. Daredevil is excellent.

It came out on the 10th, and I finished it on the evening of the 11th LOL

Without the broadcast television restrictions, it's far more violent and gritty, but still has those funny moments you expect from a Marvel production. Street-level heroes bleed when they get punched, and they get punched a lot.

Speaking of dark and gritty....you watching Gotham? I can't imagine what it would be without restrictions.....

And yeah, Daredevil sucked. Affleck is a good actor, but he is no superhero, none...at all...

The scene where the "blind man" trying to keep his identity secret fights Electra in a playground in full view of people....yeah...

The Electra movie was actually better

The one saving grace of daredevil was Bulls-eye, Collin played a good part and The KIngpin was well played as well,,,,in fact what sucked about Daredevil,,,,was daredevil

Didn't Alfred Hitchcock do the same thing ?

I think I am going to give up on Gotham, I keep watching every week and I just cannot get into it. I have no issues with the cast, the sets are really good. But, my God how many characters do they need to squeeze in per episode. The story line needs to be condensed and more focused...I might go back if that happens.

I kinda liked the daredevil movie, it's not brilliant but has its moments, and I agree Colin Farrell seemed to be the only one having any fun.

It's possible that that was just the problem of a shitty script. He might surprise the pessimists in the Batman vs. Superman thing, you never know. (But yeah, as it was, Farrell and Duncan were the parts of that dreadful Daredevil flick worth watching.)

Batman-the recent three-are the only movies DC has done that are decent, the rest are crap and mixing Superdud with Batman is only going to ruin their one solid movie meal ticket.

Superman...first off as a lifetime comic collector who still makes money in the comic/collectible market I owe Superman homage as being the first superhero, has that comic not took the market by storm, we may not have seen others.

But beyond that....the character is too boring, too powerful, too predictable...and really has no appeal anymore.

People are far more into "human/heroes" like Batman, Daredevil, or even Captain America, guys who take beatings and get over matched, not "invulnerable" characters who can move planets

I thought that Gotham jumped the shark when her eyeball hit the floor and she stomped on it. I stopped watching then.

That story line has me rolling my eyes(I know bad play on words) I have no clue where the hell that is going except now Fish is giving the hostages to the doc one by one to save her own pathetic ass.

Also...I cannot place her character in the Gotham mythos. I was much more a Marvel buff than DC, but still know all the players....can't figure her out, I am hoping she does not come back in season two

That's what got me with the writing of the Fish character. She was written up as clever in preserving herself and finding a way of getting out of scrapes (although she seemed ready to go in the torture scene before that). If they want to write her as using others to get out of scrapes, she jolly well could have gotten out of the one she only might have been in short of popping her own eyeball. The reality response from the others at the time would have been just to harvest some other organs off her. Bad character development, I think, and jumping the shark to get at cheap shock value.

I agree...when she played that game that she was in control "downstairs" in reality they would have dragged her upstairs and done whatever, so big points off for lack of realism. In fact I think the response would have been, "really?" and they just pop her.

She was more clever in the mob manipulation game, but now....I think its like they are just trying to keep her around being that Smith is the only name actor in the series.

I find the Riddler to be intriguing and was waiting to see what set him off and of course it is spurned affection.

On the other hand Superman's come a long way from the days when writers would just produce new powers for him on the fly any time the story dictated it. I actually didn't mind Man of Steel (granted it's no Dark Knight but it was a damned sight better than a Superman movie's been in a long time). If they manage to get the Batman / Superman movie up to the standards of their animated efforts it'll probably be a win.
