The Avengers was fantastic. That must have been killer to see in theaters.

[GoGo Yubari]

Oh, it was.

[LL!]

Get it while it's hot and blurry, folks! The Avengers: Age Of Ultron Comic-Con teaser:

Batman prequel series, focused on Jim Gordon, coming to Fox.

As with almost all of DC's adaptations, I just feel mostly indifference. Hopefully it will make me eat these words later.

[Damian WayLNKe]

I would love if it adapted The Black Mirror storyline instead and Dick Grayson could be in it as Nightwing.

[Benjamin]

Because LL's one has been blocked.

A bit of speculation, but as it looks like Iron Man's helmet in the beginning being modified into Ultron's, could it be that Pym isn't introduced until after Avengers 2 and that Stark is credited with creating Ultron?

[TKz]

It's already been confirmed by Joss Whedon that Hank Pym won't be in Avengers 2. And yeah, seems a lot more likely he'll be a Stark creation in that case. A lot of theories going around that Jarvis will become Ultron, based off the fact that he's slowly becoming more and more human throughout the last few films.

And now it's Constantine who's getting his own show.

OK, this one... I'm actually interested in.

[TKz]

Considering how much they let Hannibal be gory and dark, I'm kind of excited at the concept. Constantine would definitely fit TV better, though I think something more like HBO's 10-12 episodes would be a better fit. Not sure how much you can fill out 22 episodes. But then I guess Supernatural managed it pretty well for like, 4 seasons. And this is basically that with less Jensen Ackles. (and thus, inferior)

[GoGo Yubari]

I'm only interested if Constantine is British and blonde. Fuck Keanstantine.

[Benjamin]

I understand the British part but would hair color really be a deal breaker?

[Johnny Latino Heat]

Honestly, I enjoyed the Constantine movie. Of course, I saw it before I ever read anything related to the character, and now I cringe a bit when I watch it because I can't help making comparisons, but if I forget that it's a Constantine movie and just try to enjoy it as a separate movie, I like it. It's not a masterpiece, but it's watchable.

But yeah, they better get the casting right this time.

You know what? It's not impossible to see them getting Keanu to reprise the role. It's not like he's doing anything.

[Ant]

What a fall from grace Keanu has had.

[LL!]

No way. Keanu is doing what he loves. That guy is chill as fuck as and as far as he's concerned he's on top of the world.

[livid]

Keanu is doing what he loves.

Nothing?

To be fair, I share this view with Keanu.

Yep. Nothing.

47 Ronin has been in the can for awhile. It's been pushed back a couple times already. Plus, there's really no way that thing makes its money back. The other two (Man of Tai Chi just came out here), are pretty much just announced castings and don't really mean anything other than the fact that he was once attached to play those roles.

My hyperbole aside, I don't see how anybody could be arguing that Keanu is in a position to be turning down (presumably) steady work.

[LL!]

Generation Um was a project he wanted to do. 47 Ronin was a project he wanted to do. The guy doesn't live a rich lifestyle. He gives away a ton of the money he makes. The guy wouldn't give a shit about "steady work" cause he picks the projects he wants to do.
