Relax guys, FOX is righting the only Marvel ship that that matters anymore. They will be our beacon into the comic-book movie fyucha.
And then Raimi is coming back to make Spider-Man: Dance of Future Past with Andrew Garfield for 2016.
Everything is good.
fixed.

I can only imagine how hyped you will be for Apocalypse.

They can call it whatever they want, but Marvel's probably been getting cold feet for a while now, and is using a rather small transgression (like a missed deadline) as evidence to justify a parting of the ways.
wait they making an age of apocalypse film? was that teased at the end of days of future past?

We are only 14% done with the 21st century so why don't we wait a few decades before we start naming names like that.
You guys are really making this guy out to be Movie Jesus when all he did was direct a bunch of British drinking movies. You guys are making me sick. Literally NOBODY is talking about Ant-Man yesterday now all of a sudden he is the fucking crown jewel to the Marvel Kingdom. As if, they have PAUL RUDD as the lead in this shitfest yeah? The only thing that would make that movie watchable is and always will be Michael Douglas.

BuzzFeed claims that Ant-Man co-writer Joe Cornish has NOT been approached as Wright's replacement, despite popular belief.

He can do catering. Let him know that Tobey loves Tastykakes.
If I may ask, what have they been getting cold feet on? I don't recall what Marvel Studio's has been saying recently to say this so I'm curious.
As for the missed deadline thing, I think it plays more in that Marvel finally had a deadline in place for when and where they wanted to release Ant Man. Once the clock was running so was money, and I can't really fathom that by the time Marvel finally announced when the movie would be released (in Phase 3) that Wright didn't have some say in it (in that he could or could not complete it by that timeframe). If he was behind in that as rumored then that is pretty much on him unfortunately.
Now do a Daredevil and Blade reboot instead.
Been hearing talk of potentially bringing in Ratner.
They MUST make their release date!
Marvel just shot themselves in the foot.
I don't know how much the rest of you know about comic book film culture (I'm an expert), but honor and shame are huge parts of it. It's not like it is in other films where you can become successful by being an asshole. If you screw someone over in the comic book film culture, you bring shame to yourself, and the only way to get rid of that shame is repentance.
What this means is the comic book film audience, after hearing about this, is not going to want to watch Ant-Man, nor will they watch any more of Marvel's films. This is HUGE. You can laugh all you want, but Marvel has alienated an entire market with this move.
Marvel, publicly apologize and cancel Ant-Man or you can kiss your business goodbye.

The word from people on the crew is Wright got booted for being REALLY behind schedule and being ineffective at righting the ship and getting it back on track. Production has been bleeding money for a month and Marvel got fed up with him and they lost their confidence in his ability to manage a production of this size.
From the thread about this on reddit. Grain of salt of course, but it's plausible.
Gotta call bullshit. Scott Pilgrim was a $90m film. Wright isn't a noobie to big budgets.
Now do a Daredevil and Blade reboot instead.
Anyways, about this thread. I called this news. I CALLED IT.
Who directed 21 Jump Street? "Phil Lord and Chris Miller".
Pedophile gifs?
Gaf reaches a new low.
I should dig through your post history to find the proof and breathlessly post it and wait for people to comment on it so I can tell them that I was the one who dug through your post history to find it![]()

Just watched this for the first time yesterday, and I would absolutely love it if the dynamic between Superman and GL in the actual JLA movie was the same as it was in the Lego Movie.They're busying working on our Justice League sequel

It's there bro...
It was a joke though. I said his editing style wouldn't fit with the MCU so they would fire him. 100% joking but yeah...
This is offtopic, but stuff like this has me thinking maybe I need to just exit "nerd culture" (as in, online discussion of games, movies, etc) altogether. I just don't enjoy talking about this stuff anymore because everything gets reduced down to some binary extremist bullshit where everyone's rushing to cape for big faceless companies. Bleh.
It's nuts that 'consumer's; and 'fans' put so much interest in box office numbers, who really gives a shit about all thatGotta love how the only response to people disappointed in this news some can muster is "well, Wright's movies don't make any money anyway, so fuck him and fuck you." As if people aren't allowed to be upset a director they like is now longer making a movie they were looking forward to because the box office says so.

Somebody offer Wright one of those Star Wars spinoffs.
*leaves Disney*

Have you seen any of Wright's films?This is why I'm not concerned. People cried foul when Alan Taylor got hired for Thor 2 and the Russos got brought on for Cap 2. Everyone thought they would suck...but they didn't. They turned out better than the originals IMO.
