Hmmm other than Captain America, not one in there I would be interested in.  What happened to Ghost Rider?  Is that one even ever coming out?

[Mr. Analog]

Yeah, I remember posters for it...



According to the "deeb", it's in Post Production and slated for 2006.

I searched for Ant-Man and this thread came up.

Melbosa, you saw Ant-Man recently, right?  Sounds like your ten-year-younger self didn't think you would.

I saw it today with my little guy (well, he's nine now, not little anymore), and it was really well done.  Pretty much all the casting was bang-on, and I like that Ant-Man was shown to be clearly inferior to the Avengers.  At least at present.

I've never read the Ant-Man comics, nor very much Avengers, though.  Isn't Hank Pym the scientist supposed to be Ant-Man?  I don't know that this Scott Lang fella actually existed in the comics...

Interesting find.... This old post LOL. Amazing what 10y and a franchise can do.

AHHAH. So is Ghost Rider still your favourite?

Old thread is old!

I didn't think we still had stuff from 2005! Man, I would have been working at Sierra for just a couple of months at this point

WOW

This thread was older than the child I took to see Ant-Man.
