SMDH..... Really??? Why are they casting like this? Why are they not even hearing a bit to their fans? More and more feels like a piece of my childhood being stripped away for money. No doubt will have great special effects and fighting sequences, but their casting picks alone is killing this movie....

I don't know... I kinda think they should have waited to do The Winter Soldier for Cap 3. Zemo would have been a better fit for Cap 2. Since Zemo was the root to why Bucky "dies" and turns into him from the comic. The pic looks good, but story arc is just a bit off to me. I understand things change for the big screen. I know the movie will be kick ass. I also will be watching with a smile the entire time no doubt. But, just simply saying based on comic book arc, seams slightly like a Tarantino film. Skipping Zemo's connection all together, and no doubt lead to Zemo in Cap 3.

wrote a comment about the news item Gangs of New York TV Series Coming from Martin Scorsese and Miramax
I remember seeing the film for the first time. It had me pulled in at the beginning with its historical application of gang life mixed with form of bigotry. DDL was hard to hate, with his characterization of his roll. He is hands down one of, if not the best actor in the world. Leo was great, but I feel DDL worked circles around him, with out even trying. A TV show would be great, with the right cast. But 11 years after the film, is a long time to decide to do a show.

I know they would have never got any big names for this show, but I thought they could at least get a few familiar faces to be in the leads. This will fail on just on the fact there are no actors known on it.

wrote a comment about the news item Dolph Lundgren to Possibly Cameo in Masters of the Universe Remake
@skywise Hunnam looks close, but I do not see him, A; being bulky enough, and B, how they could cover all his tats good enough for the roll. I agree a unknown, or someone who doesn't bring Thor to mind would be a better fit. But when Dolph took the roll, he was known for his roll in Rocky 4. So even though he was relatively unknown, he still had a major movie out. Hemsworth is hands down, Thor. But he has also did other movies like Red Dawn remake. So to me, it depends how soon He-Man will be made with the Thor movies and Avengers all being done also. Hunnam in Sons of Anarchy is a great example of his acting. But I think I need to see him beef up to fit the He-Man mold so to speak. @Roberto-Mata Same thoughts on Padalecki and Duhamel. They could do the roll, but could they beef up enough? I do think Bill Nighy and Ralph Fiennes would both be excellent selections for Skeletor, as much as Hugo would be. But top two to me, be Hugo and Ralph do to their experience with acting with makeup similar too Skeletor. I think Liam Neeson would be a great fit for Man-at-Arms...Thing is, who think Frank Langella who was Skeletor, could return or should return in the same role? Just a though considering he was so great in it the first, despite the flawed planet travel story. But we all should remember, He-Mans mother, was a Earthling. So the story was not so far fetched to a point. I myself wonder which characters will be included in the reboot?

@Roberto-Mata I agree. Hugo would be the best fit for Skeletor. But, with those current stock of action movie actors, who could play He-Man? I think Chris Hemsworth who pulled off Thor, who is a similar type of character, would be a great selection.

wrote a comment about the news item Creator Kevin Eastman Promises Ninja Turtles Will Respect Longtime Fans
Ok. Casting of Fox as what looks to be April. Changes Mutant to Aliens origins. Removes Teenage from title. And that is just what I can remember at this time. And he says it will "Respect" long time fans? How? May we get a more en-depth reason, on these "tweaks" on Turtles foundation the movie will be? I am one who loves to watch a movie with out knowing every single plot point. I do not watch the "FIRST 10 Minutes" clips of movies posted cause it ruines the start of a movie for me. But, when it comes to something such as a HUGE childhood piece like TMNT, and looks like it is being raped for profits. I just want to know as much as I can to decide to support and watch, or boycott and be apart of the complain department...

wrote a comment about the news item Is Christopher Nolan Developing Justice League with Christian Bale as Batman?
Wow... Some saying the possiable idea of super humans to much a fantasy, while others actually sound like they either hated TDKR to a point they would rather not ever see Nolan and Bale come together for any Batman related movies. I would personally like to know how Superman and other "alien" powers and tech is so far fetched, but Batmans plane, and other tech in Batman such as the ultra sonic thing used to track down the Joker is so realistic? Facts are, even a ultra unbelievable subject like Superman can be done, in a realistic way. I do not know how, but for X-men, they used the biology idea behind mutation, in the movies, to explain the possibility of mutation. Mutation is a real thing. But to the degree of powers is fantasy, to where science was used in the movies, as a way to describe how it could be real. Iron Man used science in the same vain, but did not need the degree of explanation, cause we all already think a suit of such tech is a possibility. Depending on Superman, I think if anyone can make a JLA movie seam, realistic, it is Nolan. But, I for one, would rather see more Batman movies with Nolan at the helm, then a JLA movie. Avengers has the good graces to have two HULK movies, 2 Iron Man movies, a Thor, and a Captian America film, all before Avengers was made. JLA, has a poorly acclaimed Green Lantern, three Batman's where the idea from those involved is its done and needs a reboot for a JLA, and a Superman movie not even out yet. No Wonder Woman, No Flash, No Aqua-man, Nor Green Martian, ect... Only way a JLA movie can be done at this point is make another Green Lantern film to put in place a better story, put out two more movies on two other JLA main characters, and keep a Nolan Batman. That's a 3 year plan. Other wise JLA will need 7 years or more to re create all needed with out a Nolan Batman and re intro Green Lantern as some may want.

In all other pics, I never noticed his pants was cameo, with the Chinese like dragon on them... He also has dog tags hanging on a bar next to him.. Looks both, silly, and kick ass... Kingsley is a great actor, but has a bad record with comic movies. I have little fear on this one, because it's not director by Bowel...lol

@narrator Exactly what I been saying on a movie based with them as main characters. The story could be about the same time frame after 6, that was between 3 and 4. That's about 20 some years. Age would take place...

wrote a comment about the news item Could Justice League Be Delayed Until 2021 Following a Batman Reboot and the Man of Steel Sequels?
@felipe-11 The fact you think your point was proven in what I said, to me, shows your misguided... I said they was no reboots. They was sequels, written as if the first film did not take place, despite using key elements they used in the first film. Translated that means they was sequels. Just like Iron Man 2, we all was forced to take the change in Rhodes on who played him on screen, they wrote the sequels of Punisher Wars Zone and Incredible Hulk with the same view, but on the story.
