I don'y know about the rest of you, but I am really enjoying the recent upswing of movies based on the comic books I grew up with. Spiderman, X-Men, Daredevil, Batman (well, I never cared much for DC Comics...)...

Anyway, Here's a site I hit every few days to stay updated on what's coming, what's going on, and what is being discussed as far as movie possibilities.

Check it out and post back what you think.

Meh, I hate it when theres a big wave of 'trend' based movies. "Oh lets make a movie out of every comic ever created".....either that or lets make a sequal out of something that DEFINITELY should have not been made.

Spiderman was good, they stuck to that pretty well, xmen was good, Daredevil was a complete bomb, so why they went and made 'electra' is beyond me.

Sin City is a graphic novel a bit different than a comic book, but they have done good on that one.

The new punisher sucked balls, shoulda left the old one with dolph in it and let it be.

It more of a chase that every thing else has been done. I do feel that alot of the other movies are lacking originality.

DareDevil was not that bad. Better than the HULK movie.

I used to read punisher, and I was less than impresed.

**** Boy good. They are going to be the second one.
The X-Men movies have been really good too.
I am looking forward to seeing Sin City, Batman Begins and Fantastic 4.

Other project that they are working on that I am looking forward too are :-
* Iron Man
* Grendel
* The Watchmen

James Cameron is doing Battle Angle Alita. And if that goes well, he might do total of 3 movies for Battle Angle Alita. But we are not going to see any of that until about year 2007.

Ugh I forgot about hulk, that was another terrible one.

Don't know about another batman, it's been so played out and overdone especially with a new actor every time.

Like I said sin city is a graphic novel not really a 'comic book' per se, plus frank miller was there to direct it and they kept real strict to the novels.

Lets just hope they don't screw up fantastic 4

As for the FF:

Cast: Michael Chiklis as Ben Grimm/The Thing, Ioan Gruffudd as Reed Richards/Mr. Fantastic, Chris Evans as Johnny Storm/Human Torch, Jessica Alba as Susan Storm/Invisible Woman, Julian McMahon as Dr. Doom, Maria Menounos as a Nurse, Kerry Washington as Alicia Masters, Laurie Holden as Debbie

Of course, their origin is a little different for the movie (no one ever sticks with the original story...), but it looks good.

I personally hated the hulk!

Spiderman 1 was alright.....I wasn't too impressed with Spiderman 2.

X-Men movies were great! I enjoyed those movies........all the rest aren't really worthy to be mentioned.
