    Aye saw that yesterday. A Punisher series would be a dream, can't wait to see him in Daredevil.

    Just finished Jessica Jones yesterday. Really enjoyed it.

    Looking forward to Daredevil Season 2. Having the Punisher in it should be good.

    Jessica Jones has just been renewed for a second season!

    Netflix and Marvel just know what they're doing.

    Kurt Russell has been cast in GOTG 2. Everybody seems sure of who he is playing...

    Thor: Ragnarok trailer is out, looks class. Different, a Guardiens of the Galaxy feel. Are they due to make an appearance?

    These aren't MCU related but not sure where else to put them.

    Judge Dredd is getting a TV show called Judge Dredd: Mega City One.

    Deadpool is also getting a TV show - with Donald Glover at the helm.

    Hellboy is getting rebooted on the big screen. David Harbour (the sheriff in Stranger Things) will be playing Hellboy.

    The only comic book stuff I'm really hyped about just now is Wonder Woman. Looks phenomenal and different to what we've seen. A sword and sandals/WW1 epic with gods and *.

    I think we're finally reaching that stage though that the oversaturation will start to kick in. Like any and every character will get some form of film/series now.

    The new xmen series looks awful, the DC CW is *. The Inhumans stuff looks even worse. And the MCU Netflix stuff is pish. Stuff like Luke Cage gets so much hype simply because it's a black guy. If you compare it to other tv shows it's poor. Same with JJ being a woman etc. Now you've got Deadpool and Dredd getting a series.

    Would love HBO to adapt a series actually make it on a level with the other best shows.



    I'm not even a fan of the Hellboy movies, but why reboot those? Especially when Pearlman and Del Toro want to make it?

    Looks like the Zombieland director might be directing Venom as well. Off to a promising start.

    Love Zombieland.

    They will obviously, but I really hope they don't bring Tom Holland into this universe. Really can't take to him as Spider-Man at all.

    I've never been a big Spider-Man fan but to be fair, Tom Holland is exactly who I picture when I think of Spider-Man. An awkward teenager just having fun being a superhero.

    Thought he was very good in Civil War. He was the highlight of the film actually.

    A standalone Venom movie, in a separate universe from Spider-man, is genuinely one of the most stupid ideas Sony has ever had - and that's saying something.

    Venom isn't character that particularly warrants a standalone movie anyway, particularly if the end up going with the version I think they will.

    As much as I appreciate a lot of the movies that came from the Marvel Universe, at the same time I almost resent them.

    Marvel Universe has only led to lazy writing. It's became easy, predictable and safe money for investors and production houses. The source material is already there thus negates the need to write out a new story.

    Evidence? Look at the amount of reboots that have surfaced too...

    New trailer for Thor looks unreal. Genuinely already think it's going to be my favourite Marvel film.

    Watched Dr Strange to other night. Wasn't too impressed tbh. Good for one watch, but nothing special.

    Planning on re-watching all the MCU properties before Infinity War comes out in April. Started with Iron Man last night and it's still proper top class.

    Whoever decided on getting RDJ to play Tony Stark deserves a medal. Genius decision.

    Fallen right away from the MCU, and superhero stuff in general.

    Only one I'm looking forward to is The Punisher on Netflix. Out in 10 days.

    Dont pay the movies much heed at all, love the * orientated Netflix stuff though, on another level!

    Cant believe the punisher is finally being done properly, I'm mad into comics and he's always been my favourite character!
