Avengers Assemble!!!

I cannot wait for all the Marvel movies coming out in the next few years. Hopefully they’ll be as good as Iron Man.  The question now becomes who will be in the Avengers movie? It looks like Marvel is trying to establish the characters individually before doing a team movie (unlike DC and Justice League). And I sincerely hope that they use the same actors that are in the individual movies. So based on what movies have happened and what’s coming up, it’s a sure bet that Iron Man, Hulk, Thor, and Captain America will be in it. But who else? I’m kind of hoping Wasp, Hawkeye, Scarlet Witch, Quicksilver, and Black Widow will be in it. That way it’ll have some girls, and a good mix of characters. I hope that it doesn’t become too crazy with a ton of characters so that it takes away from the story. So Avengers Assemble! (Update: PLEASE GOD, DON’T CAST MATTHEW MCCONAUGHEY AS CAPTAIN AMERICA!!!)

College graduation is almost here, as in less than a week, and it’s exciting and terrifying at the same time. What am I going to do with my life? Hopefully this degree from a prestigious school will help me move on in life, but where exactly am I moving to? Decisions, decisions, decisions. I wish someone could just point me in a direction and give me a great job that’s perfect me and what I like right out of the starting gate.

And now that I’m at the end of the year, I have to say that I hate missed opportunities. I’ve realized that there are things that I wish I had done or said during college. It went by way too fast, and I’m worried that I didn’t have a full college experience.

Quote of the Day – Homer Simpson: “What? I’m going for a Shia LaBeouf thing. Not quite a nerd, not quite a hunk! Shia LaBeouf!” (I love Shia!)

Quote #2 of the Day: Professor Navare; “Like a guy who dies from too much viagra, sometimes science fiction is just too hard.”

I had to add this link as well.  If Robert Downey Jr and Heath Ledger are nominated for Oscars for being in comic book movies, I will be the happiest comic book nerd ever. Johnny Depp was nominated for playing Jack Sparrow so it shouldn’t be that hard to be nominated for playing Tony Stark or The Joker. Please, Academy Award voters, make comic book fans’ dreams come true. I bet Oscar ratings would go up. =)

The Incredible Sexy, I mean, Hulk Poster

April 15, 2008 at 1:38 am (Celebrities, Comics, Movies) (, , , , )


This is the official poster (finally) for The Incredible Hulk, out June 13th.  I’m actually excited; the first one wasn’t that great, and I love Edward Norton and William Hurt. Please, let this be good.  I’ve also discovered that Tim Roth will now be at the Hulk panel at NYCC this weekend.  Sure, it’s not Edward Norton (which would cause me to faint), but Tim is still cool.  Plus I can ask about his weird accented singing in “Everyone Says I Love You” which has no relation to the Hulk whatsoever.  And I’m tired of at least 50 people on livejournal asking “wasn’t there already a Hulk movie” every time there’s a Hulk post. It’s called reading the responses above you! Sheesh.

And as a nice compliment to the Hulk, I had to include Iron Man as well since this movie looks amazing based on the trailers.  And Robert Downey Jr is Tony Stark. I cannot wait for May 2nd!!! (And am secretly excited for drunk Iron Man in the 2nd movie).
