Pardon my niggling, but pray what is the Fingal dopple we are bounding to avoid bungling/fumbling/bobbling?

I do not know why people in the 90s were OK with paying money to see Jim Carrey do things in movies, and I say this as somebody who was alive and paying for movies in the 90s.

Very soon we'll get a whole load of 'pop culture' that references Ace Ventura and Dumd & Dumber in the same way that guys like Seth McFarlane reference 80s comedy movies. So many guys in their 20s grew up on that poo poo (:ssh: I was one of them)

I have all the characteristics of a human being.
As someone who actually recognizes Nova (that team up with Spider-man vs the Tri-Sentinel), I would think the best public reaction to Nova Corps stuff would be "Oh, so like Green Lantern, but yellow. I'll pass."

Also what does it have to do with Overdrawn at the Memory Bank?

The public has very little clue that the Green Lantern Corps is even a thing. If there was a Nova movie, and it did really well, the Green Lantern Corps would likely be seen as a Nova Corps ripoff.

Which would be hilarious, of course.

That said, the new Nova series is pretty good so far. It would probably make for a fun movie.

Casting you can theoretically do after you start animating stuff, although it's probably a bad idea.

And 11th hour casting can work out. When doing Fellowship of the Ring, Viggo wasn't cast as Aragorn until principal photography was already underway.

According to that article, the licensing to use Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver is kind of weird. If Fox wants to use them in a movie, they can and if Marvel Studios wants to use them, they can too.

Yeah, Kevin Feige said in a interview last year that they both fall into the rare area where either studio can use them.

They probably won't be mutants in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

I really don't want Scarlet Witch, or Quicksilver in these movies. I'd vastly prefer Carol Danvers and a lesser known character join the cast in their stead. I've never really found those two all that interesting.

Quicksilver was awesome because he was the first character that I read as a kid who was an outright dick to everyone. Wolverine sort of tried but he always had good intentions. Quicksilver was just a cocky, impatient motherfucker to everyone and I was like 'woah, you can be an rear end in a top hat and a hero'.

I assume he was a hero at some point, he fought bad guys sometimes right.

It could also be a calculated move by Marvel/Whedon to do a speedster before Warner Brothers can get to making a Flash film. Not that it would stop WB but it'd be easier to do Quicksilver before Flash came out.

They should just make a B team Avengers Movie that's made up entirely of characters that are fall in that grey area of both the Fox and Sony deals.

Bonus points for any characters that "copy" DC properties but make it to the screen first.

A big budget, summer blockbuster Squadron Supreme coming out before Warner can get their poo poo together and make a Justice League movie would be hilarious.

Yesss...though it won't happen I kinda do want the creepy Millar Witch and Quicksilver vibe. Do something creepy Marvel. If we can't get Sins Past in the Spider-man movies (that would rule) then let's have this with subtext handled by Joss Whedon. It'd be amazing.
