Looks like Hellboy?
I mean reserve judgment until it’s out and seen, but the push for special effects being just so is silly to me, if it’s good it’s good, I don’t need another million in post-effects to sell me.
The problem is nothing is going to be as good as Mignola’s art, so really what was the point of any of them?
why is it so desaturated? when I think mignola I do not think desaturated, muted colors
If the Sin City movie didn’t already exist, Hellboy would be ripe for that super high contest silhouette heavy treatment.
Really though, this is what I ask about all comic movies. Like that Eternals movies—if it wasn’t going hard into the Kirbyisms, what was the point?
The ongoing Del Toro/Guy Davis connection gives him a pass though.
The fact that those are considered the trailer-worthy scenes isn’t a good sign considering how poorly acted and boring they all were, but the vibe of it being a mystery procedural movie just with Hellboy is a nice idea.
that was one of the most insane examples of modern hollywood greyification. i’m not sure if anyone’s actually tried to do kirby in another medium yet, to be honest. unless you ocunt those marvel “cartoons” from the 60s where they literally cut out the characters from the comics and wiggled them in front of a camera
back when the marvel movies (and their tie in videogames) were new, i thought a cool idea for a thor game would be a musou-type game with very stylised and cel-shaded graphics, with the intention of looking like playable kirby art.
i know he’s gonna be in it for fuckin 3 idiotic minutes or whatever but i guess i legally have to watch the dumb deadpool movie since it is technically, taxonomically “a movie with blade in it”
Hell yeah pay off that tax debt Wes
I should receive a badge or perhaps a medal from the US government in recognition of my being one of the proud few who have maintained that Blade is the best Marvel movie for all these years, in the face of the slings and arrows of outrageous haters
The Suicide Squad of Extraordinary Gentlemen?
Wow.
This is way cooler than the movie it was based on.
Also a FAR SHOT cooler than Rise.
I’m excited.
I dunno if this is “they’re casting RDJ as Victor Von Doom” or “Dr. Doom is an evil Tony Stark variant,” but there’s a certain…stink of desperation to it all, what with roping the Russos back in, too. “Gotta play the hits.”
Also guess that’s really it for Kang, huh. Like I get it, real life circumstances have made going back to him radioactive, but it’s funny to roll out one year with “and get ready for The Kang Dynasty in 2030!” to “ah hold on uh mulligan redo redo redo”
Just make him a tulpa created by Mr Fantastic’s worst tendencies and be done with it.
I will say that in the comics I am a fan of the bits of Ultimate Reed Richards who is a horrible villain as his family wasn’t there to reign in his worst tendencies that I’ve seen and this is basically the main movie equivalent they could go with so I am open to seeing how it plays.
do you know about the current (and excellent) ultimate spider-man series?
reed richards managed to go back in time and prevent every other superhero’s origin from happening, and villains secretly rule the earth behind the scenes. peter parker, in his late 30s and married with kids, gets his spider powers and learns the truth of the world in issue one
