Yes, I think it certainly is.

I have to put this here. The latest trailer for LEGO Marvel Superheroes looks like the trailer for the greatest Marvel movie ever. Can you imagine if this was live-action (taken more seriously, of course but you get me)?

Looks fun, not 60 dollar fun but I'd pick it up for a cheap price.

Very good chance Bradley Cooper will be voicing Rocket Raccoon. Hmm...
I'm not too crazy about getting 'faces' to voice animated characters when so many voice actors are available. Then again I like Bradley Cooper. |

I've never really read Guardians of the Galaxy, so my question is - is the raccoon some kinda comic relief character? Or is he some badass raccoon motherfucker (this would be fuckin' weird)?
Cause I can only imagine Bradley Cooper voicing a silly raccoon. Then again fuck knows who in the world could ever voice a serious raccoon. |

RR is a dead serious dude. Maybe the most dangerous and unstable member of the team. Also easily a fan favorite.

Yeah the concept of Rocket Racoon seems ridiculous, but somehow he just works as a badass. Can't really explain. Maybe it's the guns twice his size he carries around.

He is a "badass" who likes big guns, which in of itself makes it a more comedic character because he is a raccoon.

It's a visual gag thing. Part of the hilarity of Col. Stars and Stripes was how seriously and straight faced Carey played him.

I don't read Guardians of the Galaxy but RR seems like a joke character even if he isn't... I mean it's a talking raccoon with guns in the "Marvel Universe".

Groot/Rocket Raccoon are the lighthearted duo who will actually mess you up pretty good.

Shit, I had to google image for Groot.
So, Vin Diesel stars as a tree. Nice. *JOKE ABOUT WOODEN ACTING* |

He doesn't ever say anything but "I am Groot!", so even Vin Deisel would have trouble screwing this up.

I really need to go back and get caught up with the cosmic side of Marvel, I never did get finished with Nova and Guardians of the Galaxy. Think I drifted off somewhere before War of Kings.

I hope that they do it Silent Bob style where towards the movie Groot gets a 2 minute long monologue. Ideally about family since family is the only word that I can hear at Vin Diesel's frequency.

I'm not interested in it either. I actually have a hardcover of Thanos Imperative but I'll probably sell it since I haven't read it (only a few pages) but it looks really good. I pretty much only like Silver Surfer and Thanos for space Marvel, although the cancerverse seems cool. I don't find the appeal in GOG for a movie, they were ok in the USM cartoon but eh, not my cup of tea.
The only comics I read and care about now are literally Superior Spider-Man, Scarlet Spider, Deadpool, Superior Spider-Man Team Up and The 4 book mini series "Superior Carnage"... I'm also buying Thunderbolts but it's been sucking and I stopped caring about it since like issue 3 until this most recent issue which was okay. |

Jonathan Hickman is good though, his FF/F4 was interesting (didn't read it all besides a few arcs but yeah)

Still behind on Marvel stuff. Working slowly on catching up on: Spider-Man, Fantastic Four, Captain America, Iron Man, Thor, Avengers Stuff, and X-Men Stuff. I'm still somewhere in 2010, though.

I've been reading through Wolverine: Origins and I gotta say these are some fucked up books.
Starting with Logan running around with some all powerful katana in the present day and being chased by Dum Dum Dugan and S.H.I.E.L.D. for no good reason whatsoever, then it turns out he didn't actually fight alongside Rogers in WW2 as much as he was there to sell him out to the Nazis etc. I dunno, just weird ass shit. Does anyone know how do these stories fit into the "Earth-616" universe of Marvel? |

I don't know what you want me to say; it has Origin in the title however you wanna split hairs; it takes place in 616's past.

Yeah a lot of the early flashbacks we saw have been deemed "memory implants" as a way of retconning his past.
They better not have retconned uncanny x-men 268 though. One of the first x-men comics I remember owning, and one of the best issues ever. Shit had everything. Ninjas, Nazis, wolvie, cap and widow teaming up, and jubilee at her best. |

Gotta say I'm awfully confused as to what really happenned in the past.
If he in fact sold out Cap, why the hell Cap never mentioned it to him? Like "Yo, Logan, remember how you fuckin' helped Baron Zemo get me? Good times" Maybe I'm giving it too much thought, whatever. |

Wolverine comics are pretty hit or miss, and they excel at fucking shit up. There are some arcs that are really good like Enemy of the State, the original mini series, and Get Mystique, but I generally don't read it. Always thought wolverine worked better on a team than as a solo hero.

And yeah certain comic videogame news will go here unless they're big enough to warrant VG discussion. Seeing if these threads could be a 1-stop-shop of comic media. |
