It doesn’t matter if it’s a song by Lindsay Lohan, an album by Fleetwood Mac, or a gay nightclub located in Grand Rapids, Michigan, people love rumors. People also love movies and talking about movies, and talking about movie rumors. So we here at the MFNP have gone through and found the juiciest movie rumors to share with you, our loyal fans.
Who will Direct Marvel Studios’ Ant-Man?
One of the biggest recent stories is the departure of Hot Fuzz and Shaun of the Dead Director Edgar Wright from Marvel Studios upcoming Ant-Man movie. Wright’s departure has set the internet abuzz (close enough to an ant pun, assholes!), with what big name director will take the reins of the upcoming superhero spectacular. /film even named ten directors they think should take over the future Summer Tent-Pole. Well we here at the Midwest Film Nerds Podcast have done a little digging and we have found the name at the top of Marvel Studios head honcho Kevin Fiege’s list: That’s right it’s Hollywood’s own Magic Johnson! Don’t believe us? Let’s take a look at the always reliable social media, and inspect some of the famous Point Guardian of the Galaxy’s recent tweets.
His wife, Cookie? Hmmm I wonder what cookies attract? Ants maybe?!!? Very interesting indeed.
You know who didn’t have a great Memorial Day Weekend? Edgar Wright. Because you took his job.
Here’s the clincher though (Click on image to actually see the joke):
Who will Play Marvel Comics Dr. Strange!?!
Another huge upcoming movie on the Marvel docket is that of Dr. Strange. In the comics, Dr. Stephen Strange is a former neurosurgeon turned Sorcerer, whose duty is to protect the Earth from mystical threats. Most importantly though, he’s a comic character created in the 1960’s, so he’s gotta be played by a white guy! Here’s a list of white actors who might take up the mantle of Dr. Strange:
George Clooney
Jon Hamm
Matt Damon
The guy that was in the Hunger Games
The other guy that was in the Hunger Games
Al Pacino
Bruce Dern
The guy from Mean Girls who kind of looks like that dude that played Superman a few years ago
Criss Angel Mindfreak
All hot choices!!!
Kevin Smith said whaaaaaat about Batman V Superman!?!
Cop Out director Kevin Smith has 75 podcasts, so he says a bunch of stuff and all of it is important to Batman fans. Here are his most recent comments on the upcoming superhero extravaganza:
“I like Batman and Ben Affleck was in a couple of my movies, you guys gotta see his suit, man! It’s so cool. Uhh weed. Fuck. I’m writing Clerks 3”
Ghostbusters 3!?! Indiana Jones 5!?!?! Blade Runner 2!?!?
These are all movies that would be sequels to past movies!!!!
Let’s see… what else can get us more page views? Oh yeah…
