Talk Lounge: June/July/Aug 2014

Fox was close to losing the rights to FF so they announced the reboot and have proceeded as if that is the movie they were making but it's not like any other comic book movie before it but really it's just like Nolan's Batman trilogy or Snyder's Man of Steel in that they are trying to make it more believable and grounded. The actress that is playing Sue was told not to read any of the comics, I'm sorry but if I'm going to be portraying a character from a book, comic, or even an old tv show I would want more than just what is in the script to go off. So much that's been put up about this movie and shown makes it harder and harder for me to want it to suceed. I could help in it's failure by not going to see it but most likely I will see it in the theater.

Yup! Looks like Andy Serkis is playing Ulysses Klaw, which could mean Black Panther.

That would be amazing.

He was involved with BP's origin story so I'm hoping! I saw a couple women in the scene where Ultron came out in the broken up body, looks like Jane Foster and Maria Hill but I saw Rhodey too.

I thought I saw Sharon Carter somewhere in the trailer, but I may have been wrong, there. Although they did set her up in Cap 2, so possibility.

She's with the CIA now right? Perhaps they'll play a bigger role now since SHIELD is gone.

James Spader's voice is PERFECT for Ultron, I can't stop rewatching that trailer! I have to say, though, I really like the orchestral theme that starts kicking in over the No Strings On Me song until the end. It's so haunting and foreboding!



Yeah, and if it's Andy Serkins, we can most likely expect a pretty stellar performance. Even if it's just maybe... I dunno, a brief introduction scene and maybe something else at some point in the movie.

I love Spader dude is awesome in The Blacklist.

Well I know Klaw becomes made of solid sound so that'll lead to mocap work for Serkis which would be awesome.

There ever been a Transformers RP here? Like a War for/Fall of Cybertron type one that doesn't take place on Earth? Just a thought.

Not on here but I remember one when we used to RP on Comicvine.

I see. Twas only a thought, occurred to me. Been playing Fall of Cybertron a lot lately.

Ah, how is that?

Fun. A little on the short side per the campaign, though. I mainly play Escalation and Multiplayer these days.

I heard it was a pretty fun game, never played it myself.

Heard it was pretty fun, too!
