Comics And The Big Screen
May 23rd, 2008 at 12:26 pm by azwan. Filed under Comics, Movies.So, what’s next after Iron Man?
The Incredible Hulk
In June 2008, the green giant, Incredible Hulk is next to hit the big screen. I hope it will not be a bore like the previous one. The previous looks like everything except incredible 
This time Edward Norton will be playing Bruce Banner and guess what, Robert Downey Jr will make a cameo appearance as Tony Stark.
Wanted
Saw the trailer during last week’s Iron Man and it really does looks great. Morgan Freeman has been a favorite since Shawshank Redemption and there’s also Angelina Jolie.
I’m not very familiar with this title, .. however Wanted is loosely based on the comic of the same name by Mark Millar. Anyway, the hot mama should be enough for a reason to watch this 
Batman: The Dark Knight
This is the last film by Heath Ledger who died of an accidental drug overdose early this year. I am not sure what to expect from Batman, as none of the sequels have really made any impact, but I think Heath Ledger’s The Joker should be enough to surpass its predecessor. Wait and see.
This film is based on a much edgier and darker side of Batman. Frank Miller wrote the Dark Knight graphic novels way back in the 80s. If you can’t wait for the movie, you could get yourself the complete set of The Dark Knight graphic novels. Of course this will burn a big hole in your pocket. The last time I visited Borders, it was selling at about RM300++. Yes, reading and collecting comics is expensive.
X-Men Origins: Wolverine
This is scheduled in May 2009. It will be about the origins of Wolverine’s. How he got the adamantium claws and his extraordinary healing abilities.
With this coming, will there be more Origins from the X-Men?
With the introduction of Iron Man recently .. and Marvel Studios producing their own movies, I bet that there are more interesting titles being planned and scheduled i.e. Thor & Captain America. This 2 characters, plus Iron Man will also be featured in The Avengers movie.
Entertainment is all about making money and with more movies planned by Marvel, I’ll be surprised if Marvel’s share price didn’t go up at all.
Comics … anyone?

salam..
nantikan kemunculan filem adaptasi Captain America yg pastinya nak tunjuk america kuat gagah dr negara lain yg berjaya hasilkan super-tentera..
azwan reply on May 31st, 2008 12:04 am:
Jalan cerita iron man pun sudah menunjuk-nunjuk kekuatan tentera amerika.
ya tp captain america lg bold la sbb kisah idup dia hnya utk berjasa kpd tanah darah america. berbakti kpd negara. iron man lain sbb dia asalnya bertunjangkan material. cr untung..
azwan reply on May 31st, 2008 1:04 pm:
aku tahu jalan cerita nya sebab aku seorang peminat comics marvel and dc
kesudahan civil wars baru-baru, Captain America mati ditembak, tapi … disebabkan Captain America bukan salah satu dari tajuk favorite, so aku tak berapa ikut kisahnya.
kita tunggu dulu dan aku pasti akan pergi menonton
