Not necessarily. Lynch directed Dune and it turned out to be a mess - an intriguing mess to be sure, but a mess and lacked much of his trademark weirdness. I'm guessing with Lucas being the control freak that he is (especially with Kurtz no longer in the picture), he would have been micromanaging Lynch the entire time.

You're not.

I'm with you there. Also, Mr. Moffat, Tom Baker was a bit zany at first but he was immediately likeable. Plus the difference between his first season and what you plan on doing with Capaldi...well, back then the program had a showrunner who actually knew what he was doing (not to mention a kick ass script editor in…

Right? Two of the worst writers in Hollywood today.

No I hate it because it was a bad movie. It was pretentious, badly paced, badly acted, badly lit, badly filmed and badly scored. Snyder spent so much time trying to be faithful to the book (except when he wasn't) and lifting panels right out of the pages he forgot that he was supposed to be making a movie. And like…

That's just crazy talk.

Maybe he's just faking everyone out? That sounds like the kind of douchebaggery Xavier would do.

Smith got an episode of Doctor Who Confidential which was very low-key. In fact, it was billed as just a retrospective of the Doctors to tie in with Tennant's announcement of departure and they snuck in Smith - totally unexpected and as a result worked fabulously. I think with this they're just really trying to drum…

Yeah, same crap they do with trailers for trailers. Stupid.

Every character except Eccleston from what I can see.

I honestly think Jarvis will be involved too - maybe gets corrupted and Ultron is really Dark Jarvis.

Well, like it or not but Robert Downey Jr. is the main draw for non-comics fans as shown by the huge numbers Iron Man films pull in compared to non-IM films (not counting Avengers). However, I agree with you they need to wean themselves off Downey slowly or else they're going to face a big problem when he eventually…

That's because DC movies are shit. Marvel movies may change stuff but at least they turn out good (well, not the FOX ones).

In the original story it is an older Kitty who goes back in time BUT she isn't the one facilitating the time travel. I believe it's Rachel Summers and Franklin Richards (?) who use their telepathic/mental powers to astrally project her into the past, she's not doing it on her own.

I'm not.

If they got rid of Superman's underwear they'll get rid of the Flash's ears. Also expect his costume to be a dark, dark red.

For some reason they find it easier to make (shitty) films of their niche characters than mainstream: Constantine, Jonah Hex, Losers and now Sandman. I think part of it is they can probably "fool" mass audiences into thinking they're not based on comics cause obviously making movies based on comics is stupid.

One of the big mistakes of the Batman and Raimi Spider-man series.

Problem is they haven't introduced Pym yet so his fall wouldn't resonate with audiences. I'm 99% positive Stark is the new Pym as far as the creation of Ultron goes - probably some kind of Stark invention that goes haywire. Also wouldn't be surprised if Jarvis is somehow involved - perhaps he gets corrupted somehow…

I thought they had said a while back that Thanos was not going to be the main villain in Avengers 2. Probably building up to 3.
