Glass Ass: The OFFICIAL JGlass Thread

I've heard talk about that ever since the last one came out, but that is indeed exciting news, especially if it means we get to see a little bit of Cable! The Days of Future Past storyline is one of my all time favorites, though.

All time confusing as fucking shit, too. Though I do agree, some Cable action (and possibly Bishop) would be fuckin badass. I donno though, the X films feel far too shittily done for serious and complex stuff like that.

Did you see First Class? It took a far more serious tone than the first three X-Men movies, and I'm pretty sure this film is going to be a sequel to First Class.

It was confusing, but as they do with most storylines, the writers will almost certainly dumb it down. I'd be okay with that if it means there's more time for Cable to be all sorts of badass. It would be awesome if this could be a launching pad for him to have his own movie.

I havent. Mostly since it does not feature my two favorite characters. I have heard it was high quality, though, and takes itself more seriously.

Also, I have read that development on a possible Cable franchise was one of the things Marvel hired specialized development teams to research (as well as Black Panther, Bishop, and X-Factor)

Who are your two favorite characters? How haven't we talked about this before?

I've heard that too, but I kind of took it as Marvel gum flapping, with eyes bigger than their budget. I don't know how I'd feel about a Bishop movie or and X-Factor movie, but an X-Force movie where Bishop was the bad guy... now that I could get into.

For me, this would be a big mistake by Marvel. Certainly if they invest a pile of money into it and especially if Bishop appears in another movie as a hero.

Mixing things up like that is a sure-fire way to put non-comic book fans off, as is going too in-depth with paradoxical, alternate reality-creating time-travel, which is a big part of the Days of Future Past comic.

I have seen nothing that indicates that Cable will be in this movie yet, though I don't think the entire cast as been put together yet either.

Not only that, but setting up World War Hulk and then executing it would require it to be about 4 hours long. The beauty of The Avengers was that the villain took almost no time to set up. "This is a bad guy, and now his alien army is attacking the city." World War Hulk is a pretty complex storyline.

There are so many issues the more you think about it, Planet Hulk is a storyline than ran for like a year, the tpb for the thing is thick as hell, & if they were going to leave most of the story in it would likely have to be split into two films. Then you get to WWH where they would have to change a huge chunks of the story, since Marvel doesn't own the film rights to many of the characters Hulk & his Warbound fight (pretty much anyone connected to the Spidey, FF, or X-men franchises is out), & they would have to introduce a ton of characters whom haven't made the leap to film yet, some of which are pretty obscure these days. I think WWH might be able to work in the animated platform if they were to devote an entire season of the Avengers cartoon to it, but as a live action film they'd really have to make a lot of changes for it too work.

Why? At this point Bishop's acts of heroism have almost been completely outweighed by his acts of villainy. He'd make a pretty badass bad guy too.

I'm suggesting an X-Force movie completely separate from Days of Future Past and the First Class universes. After all, it's hard to have X-Force without Wolverine.
 
Wolverine, by like one million, and Gambit.

Soft spots for Cable and Bishop as well.

Outside of the X-Men, Punisher (as you have born witness) and Thor (obviously)

3/6 of those are my favorites too (Cable, Gambit, and Punisher). I'm also a fan of Deadpool, Daredevil, Cyclops, and The Thing.

All this comic talk is making me miss reading comics. Good thing I just got a $25 giftcard to Newbury comics. I was going to spend it on DVDs, but a Punisher TPB wouldn't be a bad purchase either.

Yeah, my chats with Norcal and co. on history just encouraged me to drop £60 on Roman history books...

That and they will be helpful in my book writing.
 
I always identified with Wolverine and Rapheal (TMNT) when picking out who I liked best when I was little. Hm.


Im hot and cold on deadpool. Too abundantly smarky for my tastes as a regular thing.

And in both of our literature there will be multiple gruesome killing. Charming.

The hot headed rebels that are at their strongest when enraged? I can see it.

I'm not sure what you mean by smarky, but I know what you mean by blowing hot and cold on him. I like Deadpool a lot when he's made to be a more of a joke than a badass, and I don't find him particularly interesting when his writers are trying to make him out to be just as deadly as any of Marvel's other main heroes.

Smarky in that the majority of his fanbase likes him because they are "too smart" for comics, IE he breaks the fourth wall and takes the piss out of everything all the time.

Ever seen the animated film Hulk Vs. (its two seperate ones....Vs Thor, and Wolverine)...Deadpool is awesome in the Vs Wolverine story
 
I'm fucking pumped for Days of Future Past. That cast is going to be killer. It's a super ambitious project though. If Singer can nail it, I'll sing his praises.

I don't think you'll see Cable in this movie. They have cast a black guy named Omar Sy, which I feel is going to be Bishop, which I'm fine with. Dinklage is the only one that's a real headscatcher. He could be playing Bantam, or Fitzroy, or a combination of both. Plus there is the Sentinel rumor as well with him voicing the sentinels, Nimrod, or Master Mold.

Also Singer danced around a big question that Apocalypse will show up in this movie at some point. I don't care, the fact that we have Sentinels, maybe Nimrod, maybe Master Mold, maybe Fitzroy, and Maybe Apocalypse? I'm so fucking sold already, and I hope they attach a teaser to the Wolverine movie.

Also Fox wants to do spinoffs of all of the X-Team books. X-Force with Cable and Deadpool, etc. They just have to right the ship. X-Men should be in it's own universe away from the other Marvel characters, so I really hope Fox pulls this off.
 
As long as Singer ultimately retcons X-men the Last Stand, well be good. Killing off Cyclops off screen was such a bitch move. They also really need to recast some of the older characters. Famke is too old to be playing Jean.
 
Singer is suppose to be Joss Whedon of the Marvel owned Fox products as of now. I've never been a huge fan of the X-men side or universe of things but I'm excited for the possibilities of movies this could potentially bring.
 
I'm sure I posted in here, scolding you for burying Rey Mysterio criticism in a sea of... something. Did I not do that?

  1. Daredevil
  2. Thor
  3. Kid Omega

They in general need to recast an asston of characters. Not a big fan of the bigger stars portraying such cannocal characters. Going with well trained unknowns has shown itself to be pretty fucking successful with the recent series of GOT, Spartacus, and The Bible(the history channel show, not the book lulz) among many others. I always felt kind of jegged with Halle Berry, Patrick Stewart, et all being involved.
