    I get that and all and respect that view point but I'd rather have a good actor for the part even if he doesn't exactly look the part therefore having a better chance at a better movie/performance.

    No, no, no Chuckles. You think the director's opinion for casting Giamatti and Foxx is ridiculous. I think your opinion for that is ridiculous. Whatever you're saying I am, you're doing the same.

    Depends on the role. Sabretooth in the original "X-Men" anyone? If the Rhino is going to have alot of dialogue, then yes.

    Ah...the time honored

    No its the time honored way of calling you a hypocrite, because you are. You ***** about the directors opinion and blast me for *****ing about yours. That makes you a hypocrite...at least admit it.

    And that last statement makes you an idiot. I said before - twice I believe - that I wasn't blasting you about *****ing, you whiny *****. I was saying it's folly to debate with you because you're relentless. In a way it was almost a compliment.

    But now...you're proving my point by STILL trying to win an argument based on something I'm not even saying! That my friend, makes you not a hypocrite, just a ***t. :p

    Huh? I went back and saw the post you're referring to, but I missed it and its not what I'm talking about. its this:

    You've said this before numerous times. That's what I'm talking about.

    Now, we can get into how come you thought i was talking a post I didn't quote and not about the post I did quote, if you want, but that's just gonna end with you looking...I won't say ******ed because that implies you've been tarded twice, so we'll just go with tarded.

    Ok in that example where the character doesn't have a lot of dialogue or really has to act, then 100% yes I agree with you. Get someone that looks the part. So for Sabretooth in the original X-Men, completely agree. Or for the "Bane" character in Batman & Robin. But I wouldn't want Triple H, for example, playing Thor or The Ultimate Warrior playing He-Man.

    My comment:

    Your reply:

    This is what I was referring to.

    And going back to MY quote that you quoted:

    Where is that calling you ridiculous or "blasting" you? Is your skin THAT thin? Damn...

    Is there such a thing as a tritard?

    I concur.

    See FinD? You can actually make a point and compromise even though for the most part you disagree, without having to be 100% correct and "win". It's amazing, isn't it??? :D

    We are really close to a break through here, I just need you to go back and see i didn't quote or even see the post you're talking about. I didn't respond to it or quote it.

    And while you're back there and looking that up, you'll see I wasn't that serious either, you just kept being you, then completely misunderstood the whole thing and doubled down on you being you.

    So again to be clear, I never saw or responded to this post:
    I was only giving you **** about this statement:
    You can verify that by seeing I quoted it and responded to it.

    Everything else can be chalked up to, "Pagan gonna Pagan."

    Well then when I said - a few times mind you - that I only called you relentless, someone with the vast intelligence you claim to have might have....oh I don't know....gone back to see WTF I was talking about instead of continuing to try and hammer his point home, no? ;)

    All these years and you still think I'm serious when I argue with you? smh...

    Okay, now go back to the quote you quoted before quoting this one (whoa...dizzy for a second there) where I asked you where that was calling you ridiculous or blasting you???

    Interesting piece of news below the spidey pics. Joss Whedon talking about Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch in next Avengers

    wonder if they will mention any kind of tie-in with Magneto as the father.

    I don't think there will be any mention of Magento, because his movie rights are owned by a different company. Same with Spiderman. Hopefully, someday, they'll all be back under Marvel they way they should be.

    In fact in the next X-men movie there'll be a different version of Quicksilver than the one in Avengers.

    Oh I hope Marvel can one day get Spiderman and X-Men back. Imagine all the ties in they can and would do if they had their full Marvel Universe.

    Hopefully now that Marvel is backed by Disney, Mickey Mouse will open up his wallet and dish out the cash to buy them back.

    Yeah they tried to do a tie in with The Avengers and The Amazing Spiderman in 2012. They would have shown the Stark Tower in TASM and in turn make a brief mention of Spiderman in The Avengers but the two studios could come to an agreement.

    maybe Whedon will devise a clever way to reference their Dad without saying his name. To me, half the interest of the Witch and Quicksilver was their origins.

    On another note, seems silly that Marvel will introduce Quicksilver before DC introduces the Flash.

    So much for that idea.

    Also Quicksilver will also be in Days of Future Past. He will be played by Evan Peters.

    You may know him from such tv shows as American Horror Story.

    The whole situation is kind of funny.
    You cant call a mutant character a Mutant in one film, and you cant mention his ties to the Avengers in the other.

    Sony must be pretty confident TAS2 is going to be a hit. They have scheduled release dates for #3 and #4 for 2016 and 2018 already. Doesn't look like the Spiderman franchise is going to end up with Marvel anytime soon.

    First trailer for TAS2 is out now, sorry no link. It looks ok. Nothing we haven't seen before. I do worry that it's casting overload especially with 3 or 4 bad guys in it.

    Yeah the trailer doesn't make it look better either. And I completely forgot that Jaime Foxx was in the movie too until the mid point of the trailer. Just seems like a lot of stuff is going on in the film like Spiderman 3. I had high hopes for this film, as I thought the 1st movie was pretty good but I don't really know what to expect from it now.

    Still really wish that Marvel Studios would get back the Spiderman, X-Men and Fantastic 4 properties from the other movie studios.

    God who doesnt?!

    Imagine Spidey saving the day when the avengers are failing or something?! Or a Xmen/Avengers mix up. Or Spidey and Xmen! Wolverine Vs Hulk! Jesus I dream it!

    I hope they build this movie good into the sinister six we're expected. Doc Ocs arms and Vultures wings are seen in oscorp during the trailer too.

    I finally got around to watching the first one from this series, and I liked it.

    Yes it changed a lot of things, but it got the spirit of the comics waaaaaaaaaay better then Raimi's trilogy. This trailer seems the same, lots of changes, but it still feels like the comics to me.

    I'm assuming we will ultimately see Doc Ock and Vulture since they plan to make 2 more Spiderman movies after this and continue with the same series. The one thing I really hope is we don't get another bad guy where they try to make the viewer feel bad for him. Every villain in the Remy series was treated like "a bad guy with a heart of gold deep down inside". I just want a villain who is bad just for the sake of being bad. What's wrong with that?

    Rhino looks ridiculous. Harry seems creepy(in a bad way). Questionable choice having him be goblin first. I have a feeling Electro will get the Sandman treatment alla Spider-Man 3.
