Peyton Reed announced as the frontrunner for the job now.
Interesting.....Reed was originally going to make the first Fantastic Four film years ago..... http://www.thewrap.com/yes-mans-peyt...rvels-ant-man/

Peyton Reed directing. Adam McCay coming in to "contribute" to the script. Whatever. |

This movie looks to be way beyond my initial expectations after the firing of Edgar and rewrites by Rudd and McKay.
I thought it would be an unmitigated disaster but it looks really good, IMO. |

I am still a bit worried about it... I think we are looking at a solid, good but not great movie. Paul Rudd is so likeable though that he alone might change that calculus.

IMO, it all be about the story. If it works, it might be this summer's "Guardians of the Galaxy". If it flops, it'll be the Hulk. |

The first, which was just called "Hulk". I own the second movie and really like it. It's too bad that Norton didn't work out but they hit a home run with Ruffalo.
That said, both movies had similar box office returns but that was before Iron Man, which pretty much changed everything. |

Still on the fence. I think the cast will keep the numbers up, but I expect this will be the lowest theater showing for Marvel so far. I know I'll be waiting for reviews before going to see it (or waiting for Netflix). Most other Marvel products are an opening weekend event for me.

Ironically, considering our Mad Men discussion. Hamm and Rudd are both working on Wet Hot American Summer for Netflix as we speak.

The latest trailer is better than the earlier teasers, but something still looks and feels off about it. I sort of get the sense that they never figured out what the movie is, so everything about it feels off. It's not totally drama, it's not totally comedy, it just looks like a bland mix of random parts. Hopefully my read turns out to be wrong.

I think after The Avengers, Ruffalo IS The Hulk. End of story. No knock on Norton, but it's like a Brando Corleone thing.
To my mind, as good as De Niro is, he's a young gangster that led to the era of The Godfather, not a young Vito. Brando is Vito.

Universal gets a cut of any solo Hulk films made. There is nothing roadblocking it other than sharing a piece of the pie. Marvel probably feels that there is no story worth telling at this moment, and the piece of the pie is too big.

I actually think the "cut" they get is distribution. I'm not sure, I'd have to ask my Marvel guy on that. (I just like saying that I have a "Marvel guy"! I actually may be headed back to Atlanta in a week or so to help him set up for Cap America 3 like I did with Ant Man... and no I am not Dane style cool, I just wrote some custom software that they'll be using for databasing digital shot data.. so the closest I get to the actual film is a trailer full of computers.. very un-sexy)
