When looking at the history of comic book movies, I'd much rather they take proven story lines that people love and make them in to movies, then attempt to force feed a conglomerate of stupid bullshit mixed together from the 60's, 70's, 80's, 90's, 2k. Like I decided to reread through the original Spiderman series and holy fuck I never realized how much the first spiderman trilogy took from the early 60's comic books, it's sad.
I didn?t mind that they made Super Paltrow, what I did mind was the wrap up at the end. So Tony Stark cures her and himself in the last two minutes of the movie so that it all ends on a happy note.
Yes I know one of the best comic book stories EVER got retconned.
Jesus...he's unstoppable!
"Oh yeah, I cured Pepper. So basically we can now cure any injury with no repercussions. But we won't ever bring it up again."
These movies are worldwide blockbusters and super hero comics readership is the tiniest of niche outside the english speaking world. So there is that...
Top selling comic of the last 10 years is apparently the Spider-Man Obama issue.
Unless Electro and the Green Goblin are exchanging roles, I doubt it.Gwen Stacy is probably dying in the next Spider Man movie.
his 95% data is wrong, in the sense that yes, more than 95% of the audience has read once in their lifetime a comic book, but 98% of said audience have read it like you read the meaningless articles in some stupid gossip magazine while waiting for your appointment with the doctor....IE you will forget it like 10 seconds later
