Hey, ANT-MAN... you got red on you...

make mine Marvel by khashooggi	Sep 8th, 2005 03:30:00 AM
It seems as if they are starting to dig deep to get characters from the Marvel Universe. What about Giant Man???
Ant-man? by Minkey	Sep 8th, 2005 03:31:33 AM
I suppose there's a glimmer of hope if Edgar Wright is onboard. But do we really want an Ant-Man movie?
giant man by SnowMann	Sep 8th, 2005 03:36:44 AM
Ant-Man is Hank Pym, aka Giant Man. I think that it could be cool if they do this movie right, but once you make a comedic Ant-Man, it'd then be hard to utilize Giant Man in a future Avengers movie. Of course, they may be better off sticking with their bigger (no pun intended) heroes in an Avengers movie, and leaving Giant Man out of it altogether.
If Wright is directing it...than yes, yes we do. by Red Grant	Sep 8th, 2005 03:37:26 AM
I've loved the Marvel Universe all my life and this is EXACTLY the type of take on an Ant Man film we need. Jack Black in a Green Lantern comedy this is not. While I'd love to see Hal Jordan on the big screen...not in a comedy, thank you very much WB.
I'm going to go ahead and say this will never happen by zikade zarathos	Sep 8th, 2005 03:39:29 AM
Marvel Enterprises -- oh, sorry, Marvel ENTERTAINMENT -- will find a way to screw this up. I'm sure we'll see an ANT-MAN movie (and a DEVIL DINOSAUR AND MOONBOY movie with the way they're carting out old, long-dead properties), but Wright will either jump ship or get kicked off once he starts making it good.
So how does sex work for Ant-man? by antonphd	Sep 8th, 2005 03:45:03 AM
What if during sex he accidentally shrinks? Where would he wind up? Would he be floating in air. Stuck inside of... something? What if it takes him a moment to realize he shrunk and he goes big again before orienting himself? If he is inside... something... he could kill the other person. I don't want to see that happen in a movie. I don't think anyone does. So why are they forcing this on us. We ask for quality superhero movies and they give us this. Fucking suits. When are they going to learn to think before they act.
I used to like those Ant-Man & The Wasp stories in the old Tales by FrankDrebin	Sep 8th, 2005 04:03:51 AM
They were like The Thin Man's Nick & Nora. They'd bicker and banter, them beat-up some bizarre baddie, like the Kreature From Kosmos (who crawled out of a tv set, Ringu-style), or The Living Eraser (he didn't shoot people, he erased them...with an eraser).
I'd be there. by CoursinLarry	Sep 8th, 2005 04:04:31 AM
I have never heard of Ant-Man, but simply by attaching Edgar Wright's name to the movie, I'm dying to see it.
Have you guys seen Edgar Wright? by Flummage	Sep 8th, 2005 04:22:25 AM
On the Shaun Of The Dead/Spaced extras, you can tell Edgar's got some serious contact lense issues going on. He's the worlds most bleary eyed man. How's he even gonna see Antman? I have no idea who Antman is, but I dont want him to be trodden on by a weepy eyed Edgar late one night, that just doesn't seem fair now does it? For either of them. PS I so want the guy who directed Spaced - a fundemental part of my early teen years - become a bigshot Hollywood director. That would be truely beautiful. GO EDGAR! GO ON SON!!

I'm much more looking forward to the Dr. Strange and Cloak & Dagger movies that they plan to make.
so.....no one's going to question? by RealDoubleJ	Sep 8th, 2005 05:11:11 AM
why is it, Moriarty already knew about Edgar Wright having a shot at Ant-Man, but decided to wait until another website broke it before confirming he already knew??? WHAT A SCOOP! And anyways, an AICN Talkbacker broke this news two days ago after Moriarty decided to be vague with the knowledge he he has. Out of all the projects i've heard of Wright wanting/being attached to, this is my least keen. I'd rather he finishes up another Simon Pegg collaboration before attempting a "break (into) hollywood" movie. Hot Fuzz still sounds like a decent idea to me, Simon Pegg & Nick Frost as 70's coppers!
What A Very Non PC Choice by Red Lantern	Sep 8th, 2005 05:24:12 AM
I'm surprised they're making this. The first wife beating superhero movie. I wonder if they'll address this, or clean it up for the kids?

Fuck, there goes the 3rd season of Spaced...... by doglips	Sep 8th, 2005 05:34:04 AM
My love for all things Wright and Pegg is huge, so I hope that Edgar is not going to get involved with Marvel.....I'm sure their original ideas would be better than any license.....As mentioned by RealDoubleJ I also hope Hot Fuzz makes it to our screens soon...Still if an Ant-Man movie is going to be made I suppose comedy would be the best way to take it and i'd certainly sit through a movie with Pegg as Ant-Man...Actually sounds right up their street doesn't it? The trials and tribulations of a down trodden miniature superhero, finding it hard to make his impact on the hero world, whist trying to balance his lovelife and family at the same time.......I mean if Wright does get the go-ahead who else would he want for his hero?, I can't imagine him doing it without Pegg.......
The Astonishing Ant Man by Nabster	Sep 8th, 2005 05:42:39 AM
Saves the world by marshalling his ants in an epic battle against evil cockroaches controlled by Roach Man. This movies is going to be amazing.
My only complaint would be... by fiester	Sep 8th, 2005 06:09:57 AM
I think Wright is such a talent I'd like to see him given a bigger property than Ant Man. Give him The Avengers or Iron Man or Deadpool. But if that's what he really wants, they hell yeah! Wright is one of the few directors that I think really have the sensibility and the chops for comic book flicks. I hope Simon Pegg gets a role.

No, PresidentEvil is right by Drunken Rage	Sep 8th, 2005 07:21:26 AM
"Shaun of the Dead" was only marginally good. I don't have any desire to see an Ant-Man movie, but with this director attached my desire is even less.

I liked Shaun of the Dead but... by Zino	Sep 8th, 2005 08:10:05 AM
...were none of you just a little bit disturbed by the fact that Shaun, in a pathetic attempt to get his girlfriend back, manages to get all of his friends and his family killed. This mass-murdering stupidity is then rewarded when she agrees to take him back. It never sat right with me. It wouldn't have taken much of a script tweak to put them in a position where they are forced to leave the safety of their flat and take refuge in the pub. Just imagine...if he had only remembered to book that table at the restaurant, she wouldn't have dumped him, he wouldn't have felt the need to try and prove himself, and they would all still be alive. Talk about your butterfly effect. I think too much about these things...

Who needs Ant Man... by hamgravy	Sep 8th, 2005 10:11:20 AM
when you have The Incredible Shrinking Woman, Honey I Shrunk the Kids and every other fighting off the rats with matchsticks movie? Can this imagery ever be fresh or funny? On top of the fact that by the time this comes out Superhero comedies will be as burnt out as Gangsta Flicks in 2000. Maybe I'm not that imaginative, maybe I thought Shaun of the Dead was a grandiose fan film, but man after seeing the whole list of potential Marvel properties I don't think I need or want to see any movie ever again. Right now, good movies are only not as bad as the bad ones. Give them to some Thai or Japanese or Chinese filmmaker and at least they'll make something wierd out of it. Actually, I take it back, Hulk sucked. Stop making movies until you come up with an original idea.

Stupid idea, comedy or otherwise..... by Hairy Nutsack	Sep 8th, 2005 11:33:34 AM
Seriously, how funny can this be? Ant-man is stupid when presented seriously, it will be double-dumbass stupid when presented as a comedy. The jokes are obvious and lame as hell. Who wants to place a wager against me that Ant-man will fall into the cleavage of his love interest? Any takers? Doesn't matter now, they'll take it out of the script now that I revealed their one big gag, but I guarantee you it's in there right now. What else? OH NO ANT-MAN FELL INTO THE TOILET BOWL!!! Help me Ant-man, I lost my engagement ring down the storm drain!".....and comedy/adventure ensues? NOT! Who's going to be his enemy? Let's see, how about Pesticide-Man or the dreaded Little-Kid-With-A-Magnifying-G lass-Man?

Hank Pym by Immortal_Fish	Sep 8th, 2005 12:21:37 PM

I still like this if its not a superhero story by Gheorghe Zamfir	Sep 8th, 2005 12:55:28 PM
But just kind of sci-fi, I mean the premise, or origin story I guess, isn't really superhero stuff, basically a guy who figures out how to shrink himself and then gets lost in an ant colony, I think that could be a pretty interesting story on its own, just forget the whole superhero angle.
Edgar Wright by halfmadjesus	Sep 8th, 2005 01:01:47 PM
If Wright actually likes the character, then this might work, even as a comedy. I'd rather they took a shot at "light-hearted action/adventure" instead, just because going the full comedy route seems kind of obvious and not really all that interesting to me. More or less like making an Aquaman movie where the other heroes stand on shore and laugh at him for 120 minutes - you can only wring so much comedy out of the "I'm lame" premise. And it doesn't really do much to build that character up in the eyes of an audience, except maybe as a walking joke. For better or worse, Ant-Man was never a humor strip. It may be quaint, campy, outdated, possibly even ill-conceived, but it was played straight. Anyhow, the truth of the matter is that ALL superheroes are kind of ridiculous on the surface. The reason most fanboys disregard Ant-Man in favor of, say, Spider-Man, is because nothing interesting was ever done with Ant-Man. Stan Lee handed the strip over to his brother Larry Lieber early on, and Kirby's art was replaced by Don Heck's. No wonder Ant-Man wasn't a smash hit. It's not really the character's fault, though. And if the strip HAD been a hit in the 60's, and followed the pattern of getting his own book and so-on like all the other Marvel Silver Age heroes, then the fanboys here would be clamoring for Ant-Man: The Movie instead of making fun of it. It's that simple.
Chickychow, I hope that is right, that would be great! by Big Jim	Sep 8th, 2005 01:15:44 PM
And no, I do not think a lot of screen time needs to be spent on the origin of Sandman or Venom. I think they will keep it simple and have them created by Harry who is putting together a villain team to defeat Spider-man. Spider-man 3, 3 villains, works for me.
Maybe they can have Star Jones play the Wasp. by mrfan	Sep 8th, 2005 01:19:35 PM
Then have David Chappelle play Ant-Man. Oh that would be so funny.
Anyone hear about this new movie 'Henchmen vs. Sidekicks? by Ribbons	Sep 8th, 2005 01:31:39 PM
I'm sort of pissed at Hollywood. If there's any particular reason why superhero movies will get lame it's because a lot of people don't really respect the genre. Look at the "original" superhero entertainments that have been spawned since Marvel's boom: 'Sky High,' 'Zoom,' and now this, 'Henchmen vs. Sidekicks.' That's really the best they've got? Even your run-of-the-mill underwear-on-the-outside fare is more complicated than that. It's almost insulting; they're like stereotypes of superhero entertainment. It's probably why the genre's also basically a plug and play exercise as it is. Get people who are passionate about the source material or who connect to it in some way to take care of these things, and even if the end result isn't always great, it should at least be interesting. Well, that's not necessarily true either. But you know what I'm saying, dammit.
You know... by Charlemagne 2.0	Sep 8th, 2005 02:02:25 PM

I don't understand why anyone would be interested in this. Hank Pym is a decent character in the context of the Avengers or Ultimates, but as the star of a movie? Whether it's played straight or for laughs, it just does not appeal. "Haha, a lame superhero with goofy powers! Chuckle!" No. And fuck Moriarty for sitting on this one. If the nauseating cretins who "write" for this site are in so deep with their schmoozing that they can no longer bring the scoops, then they need to step down.

The Badger by halfmadjesus	Sep 8th, 2005 04:56:01 PM
The Badger is great, because he represents what a superhero would be in real-life - bat-shit crazy. Actually, in the post-Burton Batman wake, Badger was in-development. Buck Henry, of all people, supposedly wrote a script. I've always wanted to read that just out of curiosity.

Because it's not a scoop yet by Ribbons	Sep 8th, 2005 08:14:13 PM
"Sources" are reporting that Edgar Wright is in talks to write and direct 'Ant-Man.' Firstly, "in talks" means that it's not official. Weren't any of you here when Moriarty had it on good information that Eric Bana was GOING TO BE James Bond? Maybe he didn't want to speak too soon again (and if he was wrong he'd probably get shit from some of the same assholes who are accusing him of sitting on info). Secondly, how do you know this is good information? Suppose that people have written that Edgar Wright would be a good choice for 'Ant-Man' elsewhere, for all you know the "scooper" could have read Moriarty's post, done a little looking around, and given the "scoop" based on other people's conjecture. So calm down. IF this is confirmed, then it'd make more sense to ask Moriarty for a response. As much as some of you love to hate the establishment, I don't think he was withholding a scoop just for the sake of being coy.

So yeah.

FROM LATINOREVIEW DOT COM: It was recently announced that Marvel Entertainment has secured a $525 million loan package that will allow it to produce 10 films based on its comic book characters, specifically Captain America, the Avengers, Nick Fury, Black Panther, Cloak & Dagger, Dr. Strange, Hawkeye, Power Pack, Shang-Chi and Ant-Man. Paramount will distribute the films, which will carry a price tag somewhere between $50 million-$165 million each. Well today IGN FilmForce has learned that British filmmaker Edgar Wright is poised to direct Ant-Man. Wright apparently plans on making Ant-Man a comedy. Do we really REALLY need a Nick Fury movie?
