The production company behind it apparently has a ton of projects in development but nothing broadcast yet (Except for "Ice," a drama about the diamond business on...AT&T's Audience Network, which I just learned about.) Still, being stewarded by the producers of the 2012 movie is encouraging. (The involvement of the former head of programming for Syfy...more of a mixed bag.)

To be honest I was holding out for a TV series as I think it's a better vehicle(no pun intended) for Dredd. I seem to remember there had been talk of doing one anyway if the last movie had been a success. However I'll be treating this as vapourware until we actually see some names attached. So many similar projects get talked up in the very early stages before coming to nothing, like every Blake's 7 reboot that's ever been announced.

FXX is getting an animated Deadpool TV show with Donald and Stephen Glover as showrunners and animation by Floyd County (Archer). Really curious to see how this turns out, especially because Marvel has the animation rights to all of their characters. [Edit: gently caress, this is why I shouldn't take hours to make a post]

Looten Plunder posted:Isn't Deadpool Marvel? Are you saying that FXX or whoever bought the animation rights for Deadpool? Marvel's been limited with the characters they can use in their films and on TV because they sold some of the rights to some of their characters to Fox and Sony ages ago. Fox has rights to *most* of the X-Men and Fantastic Four characters for TV, film, and merchandise (but not all of them, which is how Marvel was able to make a Legion TV series). Sony's got the rights to Spidey and his associated characters, but since they're batting 1/5 with the Spider-Man films (Spider-Man 2, fight me) they traded the film rights to Marvel for Civil War and Spider-Man: Homecoming in exchange for the merchandising rights for the character. This... complicates things quite a bit when it comes to movies and TV shows featuring Marvel characters, even ones that Marvel makes. It's incredibly unclear about which characters, exactly, fall under the "X-Men" banner, since a LOT of Marvel heroes have had the reason for their powers identified as a mutation. This has actually lead to some characters having the source of powers retconned in the comics Marvel publishes (a recent issue of Squirrel Girl, published when buzz about her getting a TV show was first starting up, explicitly stated that she was not, in fact, a mutant). However, Marvel and Marvel alone holds the rights to animated versions of all of their characters, and they're the ones making this new animated series. This means that, in the upcoming animated series, we could very well see Deadpool, Spidey, and The Thing team up to kick the poo poo out of Namor (movie rights owned by Universal). Here's a neat graphic showing which companies own the film rights to various Marvel characters:  [Edit: If you want to get really confused, the DC hero you think of as Captain Marvel is now known as Shazam, not to be confused with Marvel Comics' completely unrelated character called Captain Marvel. Comics are confusing as gently caress.] asecondduck fucked around with this message at 02:35 on May 11, 2017 |

Marvel actually has the rights to Namor while Universal has the distribution rights to Hulk (hence why they don't make Hulk movies) The Watchers are also joint custody with Marvel and Fox apparently.

How the hell did Namor somehow get off on his own like that? Did some movie exec somewhere along the line really go "You know the one comic character I really want to make a movie of? The Sub Mariner."

Goddamn it, I thought I had everything right.Really Disney should just throw a billion dollars at Fox and Sony and get all of Marvel's characters into the house of mouse, if only to make things less confusing. [Edit: Maybe the most amusing thing to me is that, despite DC owning all film/TV/merch rights to all of their characters, they're really quite bad at making successful film adaptations of their properties (besides the ones based on Batman), and all their TV adaptations are currently drowning in mediocrity on the CW (besides Gotham, which was dead on arrival). That said, they did produce Justice League and Justice League: Unlimited, which are still my favorite comic adaptations to date.] asecondduck fucked around with this message at 02:47 on May 11, 2017 |

I love The Americans, but I feel like nothing has happened for this entire season. It's like they had a story ready and were like "poo poo, we need to save this arc for the final season," so they are just stalling for an entire season...

Yeah people don't realize just HOW BAD of shape Marvel was in during the 90s. Literally any attempt they made trying to make a movie flopped, while DC had consistently mediocre to good films, they lost some of their best and brightest artists along with Rob Liefeld with the Image debacle, etc. 90s comics were style over substance, and they lost their style. Back then liking comics was generally not an acceptable thing. It was for us nerds and dweebs. So Marvel had to do what they could to stay alive. Then good ol RDJ came along and made comic movies cool and the Titanic unsunk itself, but they sold off their best characters to Fox and Sony, and had to rely on the B team of the Avengers to bring things back.

We're going to keep getting terrible FF movies outside the MCU forever just so Fox doesn't have to give up Doctor Doom. Although I do have hopes that the Spider-Man deal will work out well enough for Sony that it leads to the same thing for FF/Fox. But they'll probably just reboot things again and write it off with another X-Men movie. I'm kind of surprised they've never just had Doom fight Wolverine.
