Why is this a joke? Her last show was Person of Interest, which had a successful five year run.

Obviously that doesn't count, just like Agents of Shield, the Avengers movies and every other Joss Whedon thing that's been successful.
 
Why are y'all getting worked up about Singer again? He's probably just executive producer and maybe will direct an episode. Not like he's the showrunner or something.

That's a plus to me. Matt Nix is running it, so I hope it has some spy tips.

"You know mutants. Bunch of bitchy little girls."
 
I don't like Amy Acker but I'm in for an xmen show if it's decent. legion was pretty cool so it will be interesting to see what else fox can conjure up with the mutants on tv. Not familiar with this show runner tho

Singer pilot should be la flame too with blink in the mix

Oh Singer is attached? Nah, I'm good.

Damn its sad but I said the exact same thing. This had a heroes vibe, but seeing his name attached to it?

No. I don't want anything from Singer right now. Nothing.

Edit: The Acker slight about cancellations doesn't work anymore since she was in POI guys... Yall need to update your firmware.
 
Marvel has no ability to get Spider-Man back unless Sony Pictures folds. Zero.

Let's wait until Sony -does- fuck it up first. So far, no sign of it. (That Venom movie isn't happening.)

Then they shouldn't have done the deal that is heavily one sided when Sony needed them more than the other way around.

The teaser reminds me of Heroes. As for that, I mean the superpowers visuals and picture. All right, I'll bite. Hope this one is good. I want more Heroes like series.

Lol, I love Acker, but her and Glau will continue to get these jokes

Seriously, it's weird that people try to act as if he's had a string of bad X-Men movies.

The GOAT Mathew Vaughn fixed the entire fucked up franchise and rebuilt the entire train track only for Singer to come back and derail the fucking thing again. Fox has had a handful of good Marvel movies and not a single damn one of them was made by Singer.

Didn't Matthew Vaughn have the only black guy in the group die by a power HIS power was specifically to resist?

The Von Strucker twins were conceived as mutants.

Good chance Marvel can use The Baron but not his kids



Baron's kids. Son can shoot force blasts, daughter heat blasts. But they have to touch skin for the powers to work. When the sister died the brother skinned her and preserved it in order to keep his powers

I mean, AoS had one of his kids.

We don't talk about Darwin.

I'm so in for Jamie Chung and Natalie Alyn Lind. I'm also pretty excited about this, and it looks pretty good in that teaser with those effects and all.

They also \had a close relationship and were big supporters or CersixJamie and ScarletxQuicksilver

lol, Sam was great on Burn Notice.

I don't get why people are freaking out about Singer. I don't see him being heavily involved with the TV show, besides being a producer and directing maybe the pilot. Matt Nix is the showrunner and I'm sure will have more of an impact over how the show develops.

Weird seeing Amy Acker with blonder hair.

Looks like a cw show. Probably won't watch as the draw of these shows is marvel characters... like known characters. Don't know who all these strucker spawn are And Polaris' hair ain't green. Fuck this.

Yah...

Just kinda blown away, Proudstar's been dead (barring a couple of brief "resurrections") for 42 years lol.

What a random guy to bring to TV.

Wonder if they kill him in episode 2 :p

Wouldn't be John if they didn't, if they need a brick, they have Polaris' backup powers
