RUMOR CONTROL...THESE ARE THE FACTS

[B_Metal]

You know I love ya, B.

Mutual of course.

It's now looking like Affleck passed. Waiting for an official statement to come out, so Finke can act like a mass email is a Deadline exclusive.

Haha, I get a case of the giggles sometimes at what sites will put "exclusive" on.

[Ben Thomas]

Good for him.

What happened to that POV movie he wanted to shoot?

[Matt]

Agreed, good for him. He's got far too interesting of a directorial career going to have JLA on.his docket. Besides, that's got the stink of GUARANTEED FAILURE all over it...rhey need a sacrificial lamb to take that one on.

Get Stephen Sommers for it.

[B_Metal]

Still can't wait for Argo, and yeah from what I've read since yesterday he certainly had some trepidation with effects heavy movies so probably for the best he passed.

[Martin]

I love that.

[Anderson]

So, FOX fucked up a sure thing just to spite Marvel/Disney.

FOX had better hope that the public love affair with mutants continues. It's just the level of fucking spite that it took to make that deal collapse is epic.

[B_Metal]

Ego's a bitch sometimes.

[gravedigger]

I'm not even a big Daredevil fan but I would watch the hell out of a Carnahan-directed take on the character. ESPECIALLY if it was going to be '70's cop movie style.

[B_Metal]

Check out the sizzle reels that are out there.

[Timothy225]

All honesty? Not a huge fan of the X-Men anyway (though I do like the majority of the films), so I'm glad Daredevil's going back to Disney/Marvel. Far as I'm concerned, Fox can keep the X-Men. Disney/Marvel are still getting money off the back end of that franchise anyway, right?

Now, if Fox would just give up the Fantastic Four franchise...

[FilmNerdJamie]

Keep digging that grave, Shia.

[B_Metal]

Meh, celebs complain, it happens all the time.

[FilmNerdJamie]

Yeah... about the movies that earned him tens of millions of dollars. Years after release. Poor guy.

[Captain Russ]

LaBeef is an accurate bastardization of his stupid last name.

[B_Metal]

Yeah it's so strange he wouldn't complain WHILE making all those millions. O_0 He's proven before that he's an ass so this shouldn't come as some surprise.
