Yeah, Iron Man 2 didn't make quite as much money as expected, but I read it was enough for another sequel.

Fan-made poster! \:D/

The Green Hornet trailer broke last night. \:D/



Definitely a more... comedic approach to the character. ;) But I was expecting that as soon as they cast Seth Rogan in the lead. Not really known for his comic books, Green Hornet was a popular radio serial back in the day as well as a short lived TV series on at the same time as the old 60's Batman tv show (they had a cross-over at some point). Wasn't the greatest show ever... but it was Bruce Lee's first major role that catapulted him to his short-lived fame in the US, so yay! \:D/

Well, he is still famous... his fame wasn't short lived, just he was. >_>

It looks... boring. I don't understand how Green Hornet is a superhero - he was just using the Asian dude's gadgets. :-k

Well yeah, but Bruce Wayne (at least the Christian Bale version) is ultra awesome and uses his gadgets to perfection, mixing them with strength and power. This Green Hornet dude seemingly just does whatever the Asain guy tells him to, and that guy uses the gadgets more than Green Hornet does. Which of them is the actual superhero? ;)

In other superhero news...
Here are two official photos of The Green Hornet:

It is rumoured that the title for the Fantastic Four reboot will be Fantastic Four: Reborn.

Here is a promotional cover for Green Lantern, releasing in 2011:

Ha, well, yeah, I did notice that... prior to the movie, the Green Hornet was pretty capable himself... I think all the gadgets were his and his sidekick Kato was the martial arts expert, but Green Hornet was no dummy. ;)

But no one would buy Seth Rogen playing anyone that isn't dumb, so obviously this is just a different take on the character. ;)

Green Lantern, though, seems like it should be good. I've always liked the character more than most of DC comics stuff and Ryan Reynolds is capable of doing a good job. I still haven't watched the recent animated GL film. :(

Perhaps this could be Seth Rogen's first step into more serious roles? If I were him I would be getting tired of doing stupidity styled comedy. It actually looks okay to me.

As for the Fantastic Four reboot, it's being done by the guy who did Batman Forever and Batman and Robin...big turn-off, I hated those movies. >_>

Speaking of Batman, the rumors are that the next film will have the Riddler! My favorite Batman villain!

Lucius Fox is in short supply, though. :(

In this regard, there seem to be a lot of superheroes who really aren't super. Batman, Iron Man, Green Hornet, Nick Fury, War Machine, etc. Cool. \:D/

Ah yes, and how could I forget The Punisher?! :inlove:

Unfortunately, after 3 films, he still is yet to have a really great movie adaption. :(

Although I liked the most recent one better than most people did. Still nothing astounding, though.
