Marvel is currently deciding whether or not to remake a daredevil movie because they just obtained the rights to him from fox.  I also heard they are trying to work out a deal with fox to trade daredevil back to fox in exchange for certain villains in the marvel universe.  Sounds awesome.

sweet!

That villain is Galactus, who they want to use in the Avengers.  Right now Fox has the rights for the Fantastic 4.  Man I sound like a nerd saying this but Galactus in an Avengers movie would be pretty cool.

depends on how the movie presents Galactus.  the comics version may not be acceptable to non-comic-reading movie goers but the version in the Fantastic Four II movie sucked (literally and figuratively).

Galactus should not be a villain in an Avengers movie but he is important to a thanos/guardians of the galaxy story line.  I heard the trade was Daredevil for Galactus and Silver Surfer.  That would be key.  Really excited for the next 6 years of marvel movies (phase 2).

I want a Dr Strange film directed by Guillermo del Toro and a Fantastic Four film directed by Brad Bird.

I enjoyed the DK Rises quite a bit.  Anne Hathaway, you now have permission to dropkick my face.  Fun film.  Sleek. 

I thought the Spidey reboot was hot garbage.  Lizard's design was disappointing.  I was hoping for a McFarlane style design but not as extreme.  The kid who played Spidey was great in The Red Riding trology and Boy A--he was pretty good here too.  I didnt like the high school setting, origin was try-hard.

I hated The Avengers.  I thought it was very boring.  Special effects fatigue set in quickly.  Predictable dialogue, unlikable characters.  Snarky. 

I dont think film as a medium is very suitable for comics which are serialized.  Trying to smash a 14 issue story into  120 minutes compresses everything down like spam in a can.  Thats why I like the DC cartoons so much.  I wish they would do the same treatment to mature comics, televised in a episodic format rather than a cinematic one.

while I clearly don't agree with you about the three movies, you might find this interesting

That is definitely interesting.  I would give that show a shot.  I like how Whedon can balance different plot threads and juggle cast chemistry in his shows and comics.  Might be a great fit.

How come DC hasn't released a Wonder Woman or The Flash movie yet?

How stupid are they to not capitalize on the super hero movie success. I mean, Green Lantern wasnt even that great and it still made money. C'mon DC, we're talking about Wonder Woman here (and that better be Jessica Biel playing Princess Diana).
