Super 8 hype

May 07, 2010 20:34

The Super 8 trailer in front of Iron Man 2 is a Cloverfield prequel. No it's not. Yes it is. No, it's actually a sequel-prequel. No, it's totally unrelated. Wait, no it's a squeakuel. Nope, not related at all. That's what the papers said.

It just happens to be directed by the producer of Cloverfield, put together by the same production company as ( Read more... )

Nazi-zombie just seems like a bad match to me-- if nazis are to be paired with any overused horror trope, I think nazi-vampire is a far more logical choice.

I think I agree (though I think the movie would still suck).

Dead Snow was terrible.

I actually don't think this will be Cloverfield 2. Slightly similar style maybe but I really believe this will be a different project.

Still writing out thoughts on Iron Man 2.

BTW, you said 4 films? I saw references to Thor, Captain America and The Avengers. What other one did you mean?

Nick Fury.

IMDB records an 87% jump this week on this project. That's pretty ridiculous in IMDB land. And you KNOW Hollywood can't resist any vehicle featuring Sam Jackson. He's signed for 9 Marvel movies. Let's count the ones we know:

2 Iron Mans
1 Hulk
1 Thor
1 Captain America
1 Avengers

That's room for 3 more. One of them is likely to be an Iron Man sequel. Another is likelty to be another Avengers movie (who goes through all this troubel and only does one?). The last, though not in this order, is probably going to be this Nick Fury project. They might sneak a Black Panther or Namor in there, but I doubt it.

True. I'd more or less forgotten there was going to be a SHIELD movie. Nick kinda just blends in there. BTW, you getting the impression that Agent Colson will turn out to be more interesting down the line?
