Vin Diesel's not gay, he just likes laying under glass tables and watching dudes lay cleveland steamers.

The "You're Welcome" at the bottom is so fucking legit.

[Abraham Smashington]

yep. Marvel is doing this movie right so far.

[B_Metal]

I'd put that poster on my wall.

If presented timidly, this could look to the untrained eye like utter shit. But presented with this much balls out confidence, it has to look cool as fuck, to even the uninitiated. I really hope they can follow thru on the promise.

Dr. Strange is ramping up.


They brought in DreamWorks Animation guys to tone down the original BKV script, since it was treading R rated area.

What I've got outside of yesterday's already outdated director announcement.

  Spoiler: I'm better at reporting Marvel stuff than yo' friends. 

Final three for director slot are:

Mark Andrews (Brave, John Carter)
Jonathan Levine (Mandy Lane, Wackness, Warm Bodies)
Foreign Dude (A Royal Affair)


Foreign dude is only being courted as a courtesy to Mads Mikkelson. He's read for both Doc Strange and Baron Mordo. If cast, he'd shoot it between Hannibal Season 2 and 3.

The rewrite serves two purposes. Get the rating to a PG-13 and to find a way to logically shoot some of the heavy CG scenes. There's going to be a fuckton of CG in this, so they want a director who is experienced with it.

One of the last Infinity Gems/Stones will be the push of the movie. There is talk of including some form of Marvel's Illuminati in the picture. Not sure how, but I guess it gives them a way to sneak in other characters.

EDIT:

Who the fuck thumbs downed me? Seriously? What the fuck is that shit? I didn't even know that was an option. I want names and BLOOD!

[Matt]

digging the idea of Mads Mikkelson as Dr. Strange. Really digging it.

[BillyG]

OMFG Levine and Mads? SKEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET

[Ben Thomas]

Yep, Mads is great.
