Wouldn't avengers have felt that much more complete if norton was in it instead of ruffalo? I didn't mind ruffalo though, he'd did his thing
Agree with both of you. Ruffalo was okay, at best. But Norton would've made it all much better.

Was thinking about this the other day, Marvel has been riding a comic book movie high over the last few years and this could be a test project to gauge the loyalty of the fans and the public. If it does well, Great! If it flops, they'll just recoup whatever losses they make with the Avengers 2 profits.

Kind of. It came out of left field, so I kind of agree. Not sure if making GotG a focal point in the comics (Marvel Now) was a factor. Or vice-versa for that matter. And I also co-sign with what RFX said that having Thanos didn't force Marvel's hand in making GotG. If it was so, they should've dusted off Adam Warlock as well.

‘X-Force’ Movie Will Feature Five-Person Team, Millar Teases
We know Kick-*** 2‘s Jeff Wadlow has been hired to write, and possibly direct, an X-Force movie for Fox. Beyond that, however, details are slim. Indeed, it’s not even clear which lineup of heroes the X-Force movie will feature.
But we now might know how many heroes to expect.
Wadlow and Mark Millar spoke with Slash Film at Comic-Con International to promote the upcoming Kick-*** sequel, and naturally the discussion turned to the developing X-Force. On the topic of which characters Wadlow intends to use for X-Force, the writer kept his lips sealed. Millar, however, let out an interesting detail.
“People are going to be dissecting every name as it gets released,” said Millar, Fox’s consultant on all things Marvel. “So it will be so cool when you have your five.”
Five, he says. That doesn’t exactly narrow down which characters are going to make it into the film — the modern-day Uncanny X-Force lineup is much closer to that number than the robust Rob Liefeld era — but Wadlow has made it clear he’s a fan of both versions.
“I love the current incarnation, Uncanny X-Force. I love what Rob did in the ’90s,” he said. “What’s interesting with X-Men, I mean they have an iconic lineup, so you know who’s going to be in that movie. But X-Force it’s like, ‘Who is it going to be?’ I love that people are guessing.”

Not sure how I feel about those choices, but they're good for the bottom line. Leo would of been great though.

I hope they give unknowns a chance to land the lead roles. I kinda like how the original films didn't have established stars.
I don't even know what Robotech is. Will wiki it.

Leo, Gosling, Efron.......not the right casting for Star Wars guys.
Too damn old.
Old? I think they can pass for 20 somethings, Leo might looks a bit older but he still has that baby face.
Leo and Gosling I have faith in doing well in almost any role they play, Efron though, not so much.

To do this right you want these kids 16-19 at best, so by end of trilogy you get into mid 20's.
Leo/Gosling be pushin 40 almost in 2019.

Well it depends, what if they shoot it all at once and just do re-shoots throughout the year a la LotR? Plus we really do not know what stories are being told. Didn't Disney say they are doing solo films for these characters? If that is the case, then it might not even be a trilogy and then merge into one film? Plus if Amy Adams can play a 30 year old Lois Lane at 39/40 years old, then these guys could easily stay looking high 20's/early 30's at 40.

Fox just wont let go of the X-men license #@!%
2015-17-19 is the 7-8-9 trilogy. Solo projects will fill gaps in between, but likely different eras.
For instance #7 in 2015 can have 70 year old Han Solo and 2016 spin off movie can have 25 year old Han Solo. Hence, Gosling, Leo or whoever not involved.
And they can't film stuff for 2019 in 2014, that has fail all over it.
If Gosling is playing a Solo son, we've already lost. HOWEVER, if Gosling was playing Kyp Durron, well now, then we'd really have something.
I'm waiting patient to find out what timeframe/castings they're looking at, that will tell me where they're heads are at.
They royally, tragically, horrendously ****** up the prequel trilogy. We were supposed to witness Vader in his prime hunting and slaughtering Jedi. Boba Fett being a pimp. Jabba being a bad *** Godfather type. Palpatine kickin ***. Obi Wan in his prime. Legends of all legends. Poetry on screen.
We got a ****** 8 year old boy, followed by another damn boy Boba, with Vader killing kids, and Obi Wan a stupid vag, and Jar Jar God damn Binks. Oh, and 82 year old count Dukoo. I want to beat the living **** out of George Lucas for screwing that up. Absolutely disgusting.

Cable, Deadpool, Domino are a must. Last two sports can be Fantomex, Warpath, Colossus, maybe Forge?

Sorry but I am not into Star Wars universe like that so I am really lost with your post. I'll just take your word for it. Either way, Leo is out since he wants to do Robotech/Macross instead.

With all of the comic flicks releasing, Pixar is dropping the ball by not developing Incredibles 2. There's a demand for it and this is the best time ti put it out.
Either way, Leo is out since he wants to do Robotech/Macross instead.
no worries. Like how you have comics down, I have SW. So if you ever need any info on that, just let me know. Chester McFloppy is another that knows everything SW.

Were these Episode VII casting descriptions ever confirmed to be true?

Unsure what's what. But too many vague options there. None really sound like the Solo kids or Ben, Mara, Kyp, etc.
70 could be Palleon, but not sure. 40 something could be Karrde, who I hope makes it on film.
Jag Fel could be the 30 year old, but he's fit and military/regal, so not sure yet.
Could all be random Jedi too. Background pieces.

I was unsure of GotG when announced but now that I know what angle they're approaching this from I can see it being a bigger success than most think. Most ppl didn't give these superhero movies much hope when they started out but it's clear Marvel knows what it's doing the way they capitalized off Avengers and the further success or Iron Man. I'm no longer worried knowing what characters will be involved.
It's essential because they don't own all of their character's rights and they're not about to just launch any cosmic hero to do Thanos justice. They know in order to get Thanos right they have to have a good amount of heroes going after him a la the Infinity Gauntlet event.
I really don't think Marvel was ever that focused on Ant Man and Wasp. They let Ant Man go by to give it a chance and mostly cuz they need more heroes out there to keep things going while they try to get properties like BP and Dr. Strange 100% right for the long haul.
Them animated movies take crazy long to make. Like 6 years long sometimes. So they may have already undergone a sequel.
Black Panther is not the African Batman. He's definitely not basically that.

So are they really going with that Michael B. Jordan guy as human torch in the FF reboot?
