Personally, I'm a huge X-Men, Avengers, and Daredevil fan.
Cool to know...although I'm personally for X-Men above all others. I just recently came to have a love for the Avengers, but that's due to seeing them in their later incarnations...and IMHO, they can never compare with the sheer level of depth as with X-Men.
Both are cool...and as it concerns Daredevil, he was pretty slammin. ANyone who can kick butt as a BLIND man and stays fighting crime in the hood is radical, IMHO
I hope there will be a reboot of Daredevil as has been speculated. I heard Marvel is considering it. I like that about Marvel studios. They're not afraid to reboot just like DC isn't afraid to reboot their Batman stuff. They rebooted X Men and Spiderman, so I hope Daredevil will get the same opportunity.
It often depends on how many fans are demanding such...and although Daredevil is considered amazing by many, he's simply not as popular as the other groups combined.
If they did a Daredevil reboot, they'd probably have to stick closer to the script of the comics--as many felt Ben Affleck wasn't the best actor for the part--and some were really upset that a black man (Michael Clarke Duncan) played Kingpin ..even though I thought he was good. SOme are sticklers.......
The Batman reboot has been rather excellent, on the same level (if not better in some respects) as the one by Burton with his version with Michael Keaton (Catwoman being one of the greatest representations I've ever seen in that version)---but with the one with Christian Bale, if the same director over that were to direct DareDevil, it could do well I think.
Matt Murdock is different from the other superheroes. He has a depth, a complicated sense of guilt and duty, his Catholic side versus his justice side that conflict. I like the depth. Plus, Daredevil is just plain COOL!
Cool indeed....although I'd not say he is different from the others as it concerns depth. Nightcrawler had just as many conflicts as being both Mutant and Catholic---and others as well, like Wolverine or Xavier. But with Daredevil, he does have alot of struggles with villglante Justice. He's just not willing to use deadly force.....different from others that were vigilante and yet Catholics, such as the Punisher.
Honestly, X-Men should NOT have ended so abruptly with X3. While I thought it was awesome (I'm in an ultra minority! Most people I know HATE the third X Men flick), killing off everyone so soon, dumb....That cast was superb.
To my knowledge, the only ones killed off were Phoenix and Xavier--and I must admit, I was bothered by the fact that Xavier was killed. ALthough I was rooting for Jean to come back to the good side, when she killed him, I was like "Girl has to die...you just don't do that."
But in many ways, they needed to bring the series to an end and have some level of resolvement. I can't say that I really was saddened at the loss of Cyclopes, as I didn't care much for him in any incarnation.
Right there with ya, by the way, as it concerns actually enjoying the 3rd film
and not really feeling that it was at any point that it was a HORRIBLE film. I think alot of people were upset that it ended as it did.....but the cast was wonderful. What they did with Phoenix was a good depiction as well...
I think where they messed up was going backward with the "Wolverine: Origins" movie...as to me, that was sheer GARBAGE!!!!! Good on some things...but overall, not remotely memorable.
I think Ian McKellan, though I TOTALLY disagree with his gay lifestyle, is the GREATEST actor of our time
and just for Gandalf and Magneto, the man deserves a lifetime medal of achievement from sci-fi and comic fans!
He's definately good..Gandalf being one of his greatest impressions...and the man is truly hilarious. Saw him once on something called "Extras" and was blown away:
Nonetheless, if I had to pick, I'll take Patrick Stewart any day, however. But at least they're good friends and are hilarious together
