Harrelson would be better as Hammerhead I think. I actually like the idea of Melissa McCarthy as Kingpin. Comedians tend to play good villains. (Comedy option: Dan Fogel or Seth Rogan...though Rogan would actually probably do a good job come to think of it.)

The problem with Whedon alums is their track rate. His brother Jed's on "Agents of SHIELD," Jane Espenson's got some web show, Marti Noxon is hopefully not coming anywhere near this, and David Greenwalt and Tim Minear have modest reputations as Show Killers.

Greenwalt has Grimm right now and seems to be doing pretty good :swoon:

It shouldn't be too hard to get somebody who wants to play Herr Starr. He has some of the best lines in the comic. Richard Moll as Starr would be wonderful.

Lurdiak posted:

The comic is a surprisingly good reading experience because it's got solid characters, clever writing and great pacing, but once you're done with it, the immense pile of unfunny, intolerant, juvenile Ennis garbage that accumulated makes you wonder how you even got through the whole thing.

Ennis and Millar are two people who can create great characters that I like and stick them in stories that I hate.

Tuxedo Jack posted:

He and Goldberg wrote the script, where most of the problems reside.

But I actually liked the Green Hornet movie. I thought it was a clever reimagining of the character. Back in the 90's DC was hyping a new Doc Savage book with a splash ad of a high angle shot through a cheap office window. Seated behind a desk was a big guy with his hair in a pony tail. The tag line was 'Doc Savage He's not who you think he is.' When the book came out none of that imagery was in it. It was just Doc and the Five in the future.

I still want to see a good modern day version of Doc. TV, Movie...not a DC Comic though.

For those still watching SHIELD (I think it's gotten a million times better, personally), J. August Richards' character is officially Deathlok, which is not what I expected but pretty rad.

Gaz-L posted:

It's eerie how they took a character that seemed nothing like the original at first and now he looks and in a lot of ways acts exactly like Deathstroke. The slightly greying hair is a great touch.

Yeah, time travel is kind of tricky like that. I do almost wonder if they're going to do Killer Frost or combine her with Captain Cold, because having two villains with very, very similar gimmicks seems a bit much, but you'd think Cold would've been the one to pick, being as he's the iconic Flash villain. On the other hand, having another woman in the cast is a plus, and probably why they picked that character.

They bring Killer Frost in, that means Raymond/Stein Firestorm right right?

Just got home from TWS, and the way I see it, AoS has two choices, based on the imaginary lines I'm giving Coulson here.

1. "Well, yeah, our HQ got blown up, but look at all the facilities we got still that we have visited this year alone. So, it's business as usual guys."

2. "Well, it seems like we're outta a job right now. Jet fuel kinda costs alot, and while I could call Stark for some cash, I really wouldn't want to deal with him being that smug over it. Instead, we'll all pile into Ward's 78 Camaro and travel the US fighting crime! Now, there's not enough seats, so Fitzsimmonds, one of you has to ride in the trunk"

I personally am a fan of option 2.

Option 2 is the only option :colbert:

How dumb can you go with it before it ceases to be recognizable and alienates its major audience? They are screwed because the fact of the matter is people are going to want this show to be more Batman than the executives at WB/DC will likely let them be, especially since they are about to reboot the character for movies. They should have pulled an Arrow or Flash and put in some other second stringer into a TV show.

They only have the TV rights for Batman I thought. How are they working Bullock in though? Doesn't he fall under characters WB still has control of for television?
