, posted Thu 20 Jun 20:25
I was looking forward to this movie a lot....but now..... The Daredevil costume is good, I like it....but then I saw the Elektra costume, and it was a big departure, but still, I was pumped about the movie....but now that I've seen Bullseye and Kingpin for the movie (Bullseye looks cool and I like Colin Farrel, but it's just not quite right in my mind) and my problem with Kingpin is that Michael Clark Duncan is playing him (He's a great actor, don't get me wrong, but looking at the picture, it's just not Kingpin. I'm a comic book freak, and it just doesn't seem like Kingpin to me...) Maybe I'll still like the movie....

If you ask me that's a good sign! Think about it, did the Green Goblin really look like the Green Goblin? did Anyone in X-Men really look like their comic book selves?
I think when a Marvel villian is changed and the heros get an 'improved' look for the movies it's a sign it will do well (I mean look at movies like Punisher, Captain American, and the unreleased Fantastic Four... looked like the comics do, but were SH*TTY!!!!)
I am however worried about the Powerpuff Girls movie... techncally they're DC heros and Mojo Jojo's new look looks like ass (he's less monkey like and more pointy) and if Batman 3 and 4 and "the Adventures of Lois and Clark" have taught us anything change a DC villian and you're kicking your sales in the nuts
Hmm, Green Goblin still had a similar facial look. Cyclops looked like Cyclops to me....Wolverine looked like Wolverine to me.....Professor Xavier looked like Professor Xavier to me....If you mean the costumes, well, the X-men are always changing costumes, so it's not a big deal, as say if they were to change Spidey's costume or Superman's costume (I'm talking about all superhero movies, not just Marvel). And I liked the 3rd Batman movie (I love Val Kilmer). The Punisher in the The Punisher movie DIDN'T look like the comic book. I think that they could've done well making Elektra look as she does in the comics, and Kingpin coulda been white...ack, I don't like saying that, it makes me sound racist, but I think you all understand what I mean. As for Bullseye, I have to admit it looks interesting. I will still see Daredevil, have no fear.

While the Movie GG had a similar face to comic GG, but movie Kingpen has a similar suit to comic one... Wolvie looked like Wolvie, but his claws came out of the wrong part of his hands still... and even though they change costumes often it wasn't until after the movie they had a look like that in the comics (I look everyone hated until the movie came out I might add).... Klimer was an okay Batman, better then Clooney and fit Bruce's "pretty boy" side better then Keanton but he needed a younger Robin (it was looked like a 5 year age difference! if you thought Batman and Robin were lovers in the comics that movie all put proved it..) and better villian ("Hi I'm Jim Carey! This movie marked the begining of the end of my career!")... well then I guess the Punisher movie sucked because Dolf was in it... I sort of agree about Elektra, but since two red clad heros would be distracting and her outfit would look silly and undignified on a real person I let that slide.... Kingpen COULD have been white, but name a white actor whose that big and that talented?
and don't worry, I don't think anyone is taking what you're saying as 'racist'... if they made Black Panther movie that's currently in planning, and Wesley Snipes backs out and is replaced by say, George Clooney you would be complaining that Black Panther is black and shouldn't be played by a white guy... that's not rascit, you're just being a comic purist which is all fine and dandy.

I think when you finally see the movie and you'll see Michael Clark Duncan at the end of a BIG table full of mob guys, you'll love it.
I think I'll enjoy the movie.
