Official X-Force movie thread? Appears to be moving forward 1 1

[slym2none]

I was hoping it would be this X-Force:

…I will only go see an X-Force movie if it's the Milligan/Allred era X-Force and Doop is in it.

My favorite run on X-Force was the John Francis Moore run with artists Adam Pollina and Jim Cheung. I don't think anything about that run would translate well to a movie.

 

I heard they're having trouble finding enough actors who don't have feet.

It would be kind of cool to see little tributes to Liefeld in an X-Force movie, such as the occasional obvious hiding of feet and pouches in the least convenient places.

 

I can see someone getting handed a "bandolier" of pouches and the character getting them handed to just looks at them in contempt.

 

Heck, I might go see this one in the theatre just to look for in-jokes.

Too skinny. I think cable needs to look much beefier than this.

Beefier indeed. + needs more swords and wheres the SPOONing lazer-powered rucksack?

 

 

[Bosco685]

Max Martini as Cable?

 

 

Pacific Rim

 

Captain Phillips

 

Sabotage

And they can't get the Chinese factory to turn around the thousands of pouches fast enough...

Was that book any good? I think I read the first issue or two but it was when the market was being FLOODED by Wolverine stuff.

it's great! Plus it leads into Messiah war then Necrosha.

 

X-23 and Warpath are great characters ^__^

[Chadwick]

Does this mean that X-Force 1 is going to get hot and go from a 10c book to a 15c book??

 

Nm100 will be the new gsxm

[Prince Namor]

I would probably be more interested if Liefeld thought the -script sucked, but I will only go see an X-Force movie if it's the Milligan/Allred era X-Force and Doop is in it.

 

I loved that series. Easily the longest run of mutant book I ever followed.

I loved X-Force Vol 3 as well

C'mon, is nobody excited for an actual Liefeld version? This thread seems to mostly be people bashing him with the same weak jokes and arguments that were old in the 90s:)

 

The end of New Mutants and the beginning of X-Force were very fun and badass books. People read it and loved it, which is why the speculators showed up and pushed it to 5 million copies without alternate covers and foil embossed BS.

 

Sure, it went downhill soon enough, but the run of NM93-NM100 and XF 1-4 were solid books and we'd be lucky to get something as cool made into a movie.

 

Instead we're stuck with the tired old Ratner/Singer sanitized and castrated X-Men movies of late that pale next to the comics...

Are you Rob Liefeld?

Other than Cable,Warpath,and Domino,Liefeld's X-Force isn't really a team mainstream moviegoers are excited to see on the big screen.

[RabidFerret]

Are you Rob Liefeld?

 

Haha, no. I just find it comical how many people hate and mock him while giving free passes to plenty of other people for similar issues. Kirby, Mignola, Lee, McFarlane, etc all make the same mistakes, avoid feet and drawing things they don't like, but aren't repeatedly dragged out and mocked for it:)

 

Liefeld has become the go-to punching bag for the industry that seems to conveniently forget all the good things he brought to comics(Cable, Deadpool, Image Comics, etc)

 

Other than Cable,Warpath,and Domino,Liefeld's X-Force isn't really a team mainstream moviegoers are excited to see on the big screen.

 

As opposed to mainstream stalwarts like Guardians of the Galaxy? Or Ant-Man? Or Dr Strange? Or Namor? Or Black Panther?

 

Haha, c'mon, there are plenty of questionable properties being made into movies these days whose audience is almost entirely comic fans.

You're right. Kirby made this same mistake

 

With that said, you're entitled to like what you like and build your collection how you want to. It is what makes this hobby great. My dislike for Liefled is in no way belittling what you enjoy. I just hope they don't use that same exact lineup. I really liked Remender's run of UXF.

Just as bad as what I see out of Ramos on a monthly basis on Spider-Man. In fact I gotta say Liefeld > Ramos.

Ramos is horrible as well, IMO. It may work for some books, but I can't stand they way he draws Spidey and other Marvel characters.
