And there came a year unlike any other, when Earth's mightiest heroes, the end of a dark trilogy, and an amazing reboot found themselves united to entertain a common audience. On that year, the cinemas were filled to make the revenues no single movie could achieve! Through the year, studios have prospered, announcing many new films, but their glory has never been denied! Heed the call, then — for now, the 2013 comic book movie thread ASSEMBLES! 2011 Thread Marvel Iron Man 3 Nope, Still Not "Demon in a Bottle." Stop asking.  Release Date: May 3rd, 2013 Cast: Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark/Iron Man Gwyneth Paltrow as Virginia "Pepper" Potts Don Cheadle as James "Rhodey" Rhodes/War Machine/Iron Patriot Jon Favreau as Happy Hogan Paul Bettany as the voice of JARVIS Guy Pearce as Aldrich Killian Rebecca Hall as Dr. Maya Hansen James Badge Dale as Eric Savin/Coldblood Ashley Hamilton as Jack Taggert/Firepower Ben "It's Okay! He wasn't from India, either" Kingsley as The Mandarin Directed By: Shane "Kiss Kiss, Repulsor Blast" Black Plot: Based on Warren Ellis' Extremis storyline, with a bit of Mandarin thrown in. Iron Man has to adjust to a post-Avengers world. Close To The Comic? Yes and no, but close enough where it counts. C'mon, we've been here before, gang. Fake Trailer Real Trailer Kick-rear end 2 More Mark Millar Malarky Makin' Mucho Money  Release Date: June 28th, 2013 Cast: Aaron Taylor-Johnson as Dave Lizewski/Kick-rear end Chloe Grace Moretz as Mindy Macready/Hit-Girl Christopher Mintz-Plasse as Chris D'Amico/The Mother Fucker Jim Carrey as Sal Bertolinni/Colonel Stars and Stripes Donald Faison as Doctor Gravity Lindy Booth as Night Bitch Clark uke as Marty Eisenberg/Battle Guy Augustus Prew as Todd Hayners/rear end-Kicker Olga Kurkulina as Mother Russia Morris Chestnut as Marcus Williams Lyndsey Fonseca as Katie Deauxma John Leguizamo as Javier Directed By: Jeff "Not Matthew Vaughn, And I'm Mad About It" Wadlow Plot: Kick-rear end has inspired the city to become superheroes, but his old enemy, now the mother Fucker, has assembled an army of the world's first superVILLAINS, ready to kill and destroy what Kick-rear end has built. Also, Hit-Girl must decide whether to stay retired or kill once again. Close To The Comic? JETPACK JETPACK JETPACK. So probably better. Fake Trailer Other Fake Trailer The Wolverine Add an article, subtract your memories of Origins.  Release Date: July 24th, 2013 Cast: Hugh Jackman as Logan/Wolverine Hiroyuki Sanada as Shingen Yashida Tao Okamoto as Mariko Yashida Rila Fukushima as Yukio Will yun Lee as Kenuichio Harada/The Silver Samurai Svetlana Khodchenkova as Viper (wait really?) Directed By: James "Not Darren Aronofsky, But He'll Do" Mangold Plot: Based on the Claremont/Miller 1982 mini-series and technically a sequel to X-Men Origins (but, uh, I don't think they'll mention it too much), Wolverine (not a but THE Wolverine) travels to Japan and finds ninjas and love. Close To The Comic? All reports make it seem as much. I'm looking forward to silver armor and electric katanas. Fake Trailer Other Fake Trailer Thor: The Dark World Stop! Hammer Time!  Release Date: November 8th, 2013 Cast: Chris Hemsworth as Thor Natalie Portman as Jane Foster Tom Hiddleston as Loki Stellan Skarsgård as Dr. Erik Selvig Kat Dennings as Darcy Lewis Idris Elba as Heimdall Zachary "Well, now I'M not tied up in TV" Levi as Fandral Tadanobu Asano as Hogun Ray Stevenson as Volstagg Jaime Alexander as Sif Rene Russo as Frigga Anthony Hopkins as Odin Clive Russell as Tyr Christoper Eccleston as Malekith the Accursed Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje as Kurse Directed By: Alan "The Tool Man" Taylor Plot: Thor is reunited with his lost love Jane Foster, but just in time for Malekith to come for revenge on the Aesir. Can Thor Mjolnir them into submission? Probably. Close To The Comic? As close as Thor was, which was pretty close! I'm anxious to see where Loki goes here. Plllleeeeassseee give us Kid Loki... Fake Trailer Other Fake Trailer DC Man of Steel Doomed Planet. Desperate Scientists. Last Hope. Kindly Couple  Release Date: June 14th, 2013 Cast: Henry Cavill as Clark Kent/Superman Amy Adams as Lois Lane Michael Shannon as General Zod Kevin Costner as Jonathan Kent Diane Lane as Martha Kent Laurence Fishburne as Perry White Russel Crowe as Jor-El Directed By: Zack "Just... Watch, Man" Snyder Plot: Clark Kent must come to terms with his place in the world just as that same world comes under attack. Close To The Comic? No red undies? RRRGGGGHHH Fake Trailer Real Trailer Other Bullet to the Head I Swear Stallone's Made This Movie Already  Release Date: February 1st, 2013 Cast: Sylvester Stallone as Jimmy Bobo Sung Kang as Taylor Kwon Christian Slater as Marcus Baptiste Directed By: Walter "48 Hrs., The Warriors, annnnnd, uh, Brewster's Millions?" Hill Plot: A hitman and a detective team up to get revenge on some criminals. Close To The Comic? Based on a French graphic novel entitled Du Plomb Dans La Tete, I haven't read this one. So maybe? Fake Trailer Real Trailer Oblivion Tom Cruise Should Just Legally Change His Name To "Jack"  Release Date: April 12th, 2013 Cast: Tom Cruise as Jack Harper Olga Kurylenka as Julia Rusakova Morgan Freeman as Malcolm Beech Directed By: Joseph "Also The Writer" Kosinski Plot: A man repairs drones that protect Earth from invading aliens, but then it turns out EVERYTHING HE KNEW WAS WRONG!!! Close To The Comic? The director is the writer of the graphic novel, so probably. Fake Trailer Real Trailer R.I.P.D. Zombie Cops? Dog Cops Was Better.  Release Date: July 19th, 2013 Cast: Ryan Reynolds as Nick Cruz Walker Jeff Bridges as Roy Powell Kevin Bacon as Bobby Hayes Mary-Louisde Parker as Procter Directed By: Robert "I Have No Idea How To Pronounce" Schwentke Plot: A recently slain young cop joins a team of undead police officers working for the Rest In Peace Department and tries to find the man who murdered him. Close To The Comic? I dunno! I haven't read it yet! Sounds neat, though. Also, every cast member's a comic book movie veteran. But then, I think everyone in Hollywood is at this point. Fake Trailer Other Fake Trailer 300: Rise of an Empire THIS! IS! A SEQUEL!  Release Date: August 2nd, 2013 Cast: Eva Green as Aretemisia Sullivan Stapleton as Themistocles Rodrigo Santoro as Xerxes Directed By: Noam "I Have No Idea Who This Is" Murro Plot: A prequel based on Xerxes' rise to power and the historical Battle of Artemisium. Look it up! Close To The Comic? It'll probably try harder to ape the original film. Fake Trailer Other Fake Trailer RED 2 Hey, Remember Homage Comics?  Release Date: August 2nd, 2013 Cast: Bruce Willis as Frank Moses John Malkovich as Marvin Boggs Mary-Louise Parker as Sarah Ross Catherine Zeta-Jones as Miranda Wood Directed By: Dean "Never Give Up, NEVER SURRENDER!" Parisot Plot: CIA Agents are played by actors who shouldn't be playing actiony CIA agents. Close To The Comic? I don't think there was a sequel series to the original, so I'm assuming their script is pretty much not connected aside from the characters. Fake Trailer Real Trailer 2 Guns Training Day 2 (guns)  Release Date: August 16th, 2013 Cast: Mark Wahlberg as Stig Denzel Washington as Bobby Directed By: Baltasar "Björk! Björk! Björk!" Kormákur Plot: It's DEA Agent vs. Naval Intelligence Officer, as both believe the other is stealing money from the mob. Close To The Comic? How could anyone know this? Fake Trailer Training Day Trailer I, Frankenstein Andrew Bennett Will Sue  Release Date: September 13th, 2013 Cast: Aaron Eckhart as Adam Frakenstein Yconne Strahovski as Terra Directed By: Stuart "Beattie Davis Eyes" Beattie Plot: Based on a comic by Kevin Grevioux, Frankenstein's monster gets involved in a war and fights stuff. Close To The Comic? Maybe? I've honestly never heard of it, but if it's like any of Grevioux's other comics, I sure hope not! Fake Trailer Real Silent Film Oldboy A Coat of White Paint  Uhhh.?Release Date: October 11th, 2013 Cast: Josh Brolin as Joe Doucett Elizabeth Olsen as Marie Directed By: Spike "Not Stan" Lee Plot: A man is kidnapped and put into solitary confinement for ten years. He's then let loose, so he seeks revenge. Close To The Comic? Like the original manga, but with white people, probably. Korean Trailer (Just Go Watch This, It's Good! Fake Trailer Sin City: A Dame to Kill For Frank Miller Gets More Money To Donate To Parties You Don't Support  Release Date: October 14th, 2013 Cast: Jessica Alba as Nancy Callahan Jamie Chung as Miho Rosario Dawson as Gail Jaime King as Goldie and Wendy Michael Madsen as Bob Mickey Rourke as Marv Directed By: Frank "Please Forget Holy Terror" Miller and Robert "Please Forget Sharkboy and Lavagirl" Rodriguez Plot: A sequel to the first film! More fun colors! More pulpy noir! MORE MARV! Close To The Comic? The first was as close as you clould get. I'm excited! Fake Trailer Other Fake Trailer The Future 2014 Captain America: The Winter Soldier The Amazing Spider-Man 2 X-Men: Days of Future Past Guardians of the Galaxy 2015 Ant-Man Justice League Avengers 2 The Fantastic Four And probably a lot more! Remember, this thread is about superhero/comic book movies ONLY. Speed Racer doesn't count,Indiana Jones doesn't count, etc. I don't care if you're catching the midnight show opening night in a stained Johnny the Homicidal Maniac T-shirt, I don't care if Dynamite is doing a three-issue adaptation of "Forgetting Sarah Marshall," only movies based on comic books or superheroes here, PLEASE.But other than that, have fun, and if there's a movie missing from the OP, let me know and mock me for it!

Can we talk about Comic book tv shows too? Content, I'm really looking forward to Wolverine, thought I would have preferred if they had done the Logan and Kitty in Japan storyline.

Official short list for Peter Quill in Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy: Joseph Gordon-Levitt Joel Edgerton (Warrior, The Great Gatsby, Zero Dark Thirty) Jack Huston (Boardwalk Empire) Jim Sturgess (Cloud Atlas, 21) Lee Pace (The Hobbit, Lincoln) Eddie Redmayne (Les Miserables) Zachary Levi (Chuck) Also rumored to have been offered the part: James Marsden Garret Hedlund (Tron Legacy) Sullivan Stapleton (Gangster Squad)

I would be very surprised if Joel Edgerton did not get the role. Joe Carnahan has said he was also the guy that he was going to push for Daredevil.

muscles like this? posted:Official short list for Peter Quill in Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy: What an absolute embarrassment of riches that list is. Maybe not the rumored section, but really any of the ones above would be great. Though I'm not counting Levi, it would be odd for him to be two characters in the same continuity. But not too odd. Personally Edgerton, Redmayne, and Huston would be top picks. The only reason I don't say JGL is because he's been in so many awesome films lately I'd hate to see him overexposed. But hell, if he's up for it then whatever.

Might there be legal issues with JGL being in a Marvel and a DC franchise at the same time (provided the Batman rumours are true)?

None at all, if nothing else Ryan Reynolds has already worked on films based on books of both companies. Actors can work on whatever project they want, so long as they're union gigs.

You can add Michael Rosenbaum to the list as well. Apparently he just read for the role and is a good friend of James Gunn. So the embarrassment of riches continues.

So I just had a pretty awesome conversation about Deadpool with a few customers and I thought of something that I don't ever recall being discussed before, Donald Glover as Deadpool. He's a great actor, loving hilarious, amazing comedic timing, can sing, dance and since DP is scarred and wears a mask 90% of the time the color of his skin is not an issue. Thoughts?

And Natalie Portman is in it so some of it is happening on Earth. But yeah, they'll probably get 17 minutes of screen time in this film.

Are any of the other Avengers set to make guest appearances in either Iron Man or Thor? I know that the movies are supposed to be set during a period where they're not together, but with Iron Patriot showing up I imagine they'll throw Cap into at least a quick scene or two in IM3.

I figured Asgard would use the Tesseract to help fix Bifrost by the time Thor 2 takes place.

Yeah I'm not a fan of the fanwank easter eggs because ultimately they don't get developed because 99% of the audience didn't notice that Hank McCoy appeared in the background on a tv screen for 3 seconds.

The Gamma expert and the colleague he was planning to contact are two different people. The dialogue's a bit confusingly set up, but he's talking about both Banner and Pym.
