  Hardy, Bale, Oldman, Caine, Ledger, Murphy, Leto, Smith, Robbie, Shannon, Crowe, Cotillard, Eisenberg, Adams, Affleck... not a bad roster over the last decade. I'd take it.

  How is it the Marvel Cinematic Universe keeps snatching up amazing actors?

  Seems like it's the only place where quality actors can get paid a good salary/share of profits these days and still do something critically appealing. Well that, and Bond of course.

  No. Feige confirmed they're not going to bother with an origins story as it's been told already and everyone knows Peter's deal. Also, spider will be making his debut in Captain America: Civil War; which brings me to...

  Variety has some details. They also say Holland is only shooting Civil War for a week.

  With such a short shooting schedule, and the age that Peter Parker will be in this film.

  I would be very surprised if Spiderman reveals his true identity in Civil War

  Seems to me it's pretty much the same deal as with Universal and the Hulk.

  It's also good news for Sony no? They get now an important share of the Marvel/Disney earnings.

  So far, the reviw ratings for "Ant-Man" are, uhmm, OK-ish. But nothing great:

  I have a TF calendar on my wall (Total Film, not ThunderFinger). The Avengers are depicted. My 10 y.o. niece looked at The Hulk and said "Look! It s Shrek!"
• DaltonCraig007 They say, "Evil prevails when good men fail to act." What they ought to say is, "Evil prevails."

  But a 7.9 on IMDB. ;) And 91% audience score on RT. So no matter what the professional critics say, Marvel have another hit on their hands.

  I found Antman one of the best Marvel films to date. Certainly not the biggest, haha what a lousy pun, but the film made much more sense to me than for instance Guardians of the Galaxy. The casting was excellent, I liked the humor, although it wasn´t always perfectly timed, but you can´t help loving Michael Pena as he tells a story =)) .

  Check out Jon Bernthal as THE PUNISHER in Season 2 of DareDevil!

  Only 'slightly' disappointed he doesn't have the slicked back hair, and it's unknown (at least to me) if he'll have a costume per se, but that sure looks like Frank!

  Should have got Ray Stevenson back. He's is Frank Castle.

  I loved him too! A dead ringer for The Punisher circa 2000-2012 (basically all of MAX)
  but I suppose I can understand not using him since the movie pretty much bombed.
  
  ....I loved it, for the record ;)
  
  As for Jon's hair, I did forget Castle did look exactly like that in Year One, so that was why I was only 'slightly' disappointed, lol .
  He'll be fantastic. Plus Punisher and DareDevil hate each other so it should be fun times!
  
  I wonder how many guns he has hidden under that big jacket :D

  I know the Marvel comic adaptations produced/financed by 20th Century Fox are not part of the "Marvel Cinematic Universe" ("X-Men", "Fantastic Four"). But I DO think I truly love this R-rated trailer for the new Fox/Marvel-film "Deadpool" :-D!:

  On the other hand, the reviews for the rebooted Fox/Marvel flick "Fantastic Four" are destructive and utterly bad:
  
  17% on RT, 29% on Metacritic & 4.9 on IMDB.
  
  This could be the end for the "Fantastic Four"-franchise....and a possible larger Fox-Cinematic Universe together with X-Men and Deadpool.

  The reviews are bad but no one's really surprised. This movie was insincerely made just to hold on to the rights. Shame on Fox for putting out a shitty product. The rights need to ho back to Marvel.
