Not a bad get, but I would have preferred Bryan Cranston.

Only if Aaron Paul is Robin. Then he can tell Affleck's Batman how much of a bitch he's being.

Joseph Gordon-Levitt (surprise! Seriously, dude's been mentioned for pretty much every superhero role in the last 2 years) and Paul Rudd are the front-runners to get the Ant-Man gig.

I honestly couldn't care less who they choose out of those two because either would be great.

Paul Rudd is Ant-Man!

Yessssssssssssssssss. Get Rashida Jones now! GET RASHIDA JONES NOW

Perfect casting.

[TKz]

The more I hear about Batman Vs. Superman in terms of casting, the more I'm like "I don't know what the fuck is happening, but it's pretty fucking cool".

And then I hear something about it outside of the casting and suddenly I'm less excited. YOU GAVE SNYDER SOME CONFIDENCE, WARNER! YOU KNOW WHAT HAPPENED LAST TIME HE GOT COCKY!

Also, as said by others, Paul Rudd is a perfect Hank Pym.

[TKz]

You're blowin' my mind, Lok!

Really? Sandman? If that comes anywhere near a $75 million budget, I'll eat a hat of your choice.

It won't come near to 75 million budget - because it will be much more expensive.

Although Green Lantern is a established DC character, he is not on a level of a superman or batman in terms of popularity.

So is Sandman, but Sandman has a completely different target audience, that DC hits with only a few characters. And don't forget that Neil Gaiman became a huge player the last years ( HBO announced to make 'American Gods', 'Stardust' and 'Coraline' did not that bad and he writes for Doctor Who) - only having his name is already a seller for a good target audience.

The reason I made the comparison with Green Lantern is simply because both are DC characters and I expect minimum the same vfx/cgi level for it.

Green Lantern did cost $200 million (first budget was $150 million)

by the way, I'm pretty hyped for this since I saw the pitch-artwork: http://comicsalliance.com/sandman-movie-pitch-concept-art-jill-thompson/

the hat of my choice would be a Fez ...

IT'S HAPPENING

IT'S HAPPENING

Looks nuts!

[TKz]

IT'S HAPPENING

I always knew you were Paul Rudd, GoGo.

I was less aware that I was Conan, though...

[GoGo Yubari]

Let's dance, TKz!

[TKz]

We're the flyest white guys on this show!

I guess that makes Livid Andy. Or one of the other Richter brothers.

[livid]

I'll take Andy. Andy's hilarious.

Though I guess that means I'll never my own sitcom.

[TKz]

I'll take Andy. Andy's hilarious.

Though I guess that means I'll never my own sitcom.

At least you're not Emmett. There's a reason nobody likes Emmett.

Rumors of Marvel looking to cast a "physically imposing 40-50 year old man", which many take to mean

Baron Von Strucker

[TKz]

In less major news, Anna Paquin's scene has been cut from Days of Future Past, removing Rouge from the equation.

I adore Paquin and I love the Rouge character, but I'm okay with it. If anything, it makes more sense, considering the end of Last Stand involved her losing her powers. No reason she'd really be involved with all the Mutant side of things. Apparently it'll be included in the Bluray/DVD, so that's cool.

[GoGo Yubari]

Rogue, TKz. Rouge is makeup, or a video game bat.

[TKz]

It's 1am, Paul! I'm tired and Andy won't go to bed!

Go bother Jason Segel with your spelling corrections.

[livid]

Hey man, it's only 7 pm here.

[GoGo Yubari]

Deal with it.
