""Summer Glau's character has an unsurprising tendency to speak in riddles, but she will make one shocking direct statement, and it will bring us closer to the origin story of one of the show's most important characters""
Didn't Joss say she was supposed to be a completely different character to Summer to play? Not River/Cameron 3.0? #shazam
@Belabras ate my dingo!: That wouldn't be just a quick cameo, but a serious part, and they're almost certainly going to be a mixture of animatronics and CGI, in any case. No, I think he'll be one of the goblins in the lair of the Great Goblin - perhaps the one who explains how they found the dwarves at their gate. #shazam
@Belabras ate my dingo!: There's also a whole slew of soldiers he could be since there's that war at the end... "says he'll have a line or two, and die quickly." Seems to fit the bill. #shazam
I can't wait to see Smaug. I spent a lot of time in grade 3 (my teacher was awesome and read The Hobbit out loud to us, a great way to get kids into reading - almost every one of my classmates went on to read The Lord of the Rings) trying to draw him with little success.
I really hate everything I read about the new love interests for Chuck and Sarah. It just seems so wrong considering the direction things were going at the end of season two. Still, I'll be patient and give it a chance. And as long as I get my weekly dose of Casey I won't be going anywhere.
As for V - it has promise (at least it has driven me away with boredom a la SGU), but is anyone else finding the dialogue really, really cringe worthy awful at points? There are times when I feel embarrassed for the actors. #shazam
Look, Hollywood, I love Ryan Reynolds as much as any straight dude can, but he is not meant for every superhero movie out there. I'm sure the reason Whedon got the boot from Wonder Woman is Warner Brothers wanted to hire Reynolds for the part. #shazam
@icy_one: agreed, it seems since he gave a semi-decent performance as Deadpool, the whole world thinks he should play every single super hero ever conceived. at the end of the day he's really not that good an actor. #shazam
@icy_one: when was the last time you left a theater saying "My god, what a brilliant well defined character that Ryan Reynolds portrayed." and if you say wolverine or smokin' aces i'll cut you. #shazam
@dethklokso: Just because Ryan Reynolds hasn't been in a good movie doesn't mean he's not a good actor. He has great comedic delivery and nothing else matters. #shazam
@dethklokso: I thought he was brilliant in The Nines and I really dug his performance as Hannibal King in Balde 3. In my opinion, he was the one saving grace of Blade 3. #shazam
@icy_one: let us not forget the most important aspect of his acting-the fact he is a hotty mchotpants. he gets a smash rating of 'into next week' he is just too good looking. #shazam
I'm not interested in Magneto at all, and I thought that CGI technology for de-aging was horrible and fake. It was like visual Auto-tune! Mr. McKellen just needs OTHER good roles. #xmen
@salthegeek: agreed. I was soooo worried they would try to pick up where that movie left off which would've just been stupid. Of course they botched the Wolverine movie so it wouldn't have been surprising. #xmen
@CodenameV: Seconded. Why would you not make a Magneto movie, when you have that caliber of actors to work with? McKellan and Stewart are some of the best actors you'll find in any genre, stage or screen.
Translation: "They're too old and ugly, so we don't want them in our pic." Screw that. Frakin Hollywood.
@Bigdamnhero: @CodenameV: WHY? What possible story could you tell with Ian McKellan at this stage? You can't de-age a 70 year old to a 20-30 year old, as proven by the godawful Patrick Stewart in Origins. And so you'd end up having him narrating, at best.
And even if that wasn't true, why waste good acting talent on the X-Men equivalent of the Star Wars prequels? #xmen
@deworde: Why does anyone need to be de-aged? I became fans of Stewart and Mckellan while they were old men; I'm not interested in seeing a younger actor reprise the role (I'm not opposed to it, just would prefer the originals).
In the vast archive of stories in the Marvel vault, there must be something to tell. I would like to see two of the finest actors around reprise their X-men roles, before we no longer have them. #xmen
Or instead of a full reboot, the writers could do is use a throw-away line of " The process wasn't completely grafted into his body, so only his face is screwed up."
There are dozens of workarounds for the version of Deadpool we saw in Wolverine (Crank's 'I was dead and got better' leaps to mind) and I'm delighted to hear they're looking at both that and the fourth wall stuff.
Sorry to hear Magneto may be on hold though, that had a lot of potential. Still 'First Class', handled right would fit the Harry Potter story model perfectly. It'll be interesting to see how that turns out. #xmen
i just dont get how you can take wolverine and make it as horrible as they did for the origins movie. you have tons of source material with pictures and thousands of 'experts' on the character. how the fuck do you butcher it that badly? i honestly wont give fox another dime to watch the tattered remains of the xmen universe. #xmen

I'm not quite sure if its a problem with the movie, or if he's just too awesome for it usually.
I will say that the only reason I purchased Blade: Trinity was Ryan Reynolds. #xmen
