Doctor Doom

**6souls** · 2017-10-01 13:24

Developed by Noah Hawley (Legion / Fargo TV)

At the end of a Comic-Con panel for “Legion” Thursday, Hawley announced that he was developing a new film at Fox — one that he wouldn’t say too much about. “I’ll just say two words. The first one is Doctor and the next one is Doom,” he said.

Fox comic movies = bad but Hawley = amazing.

This makes me feel many conflicting emotions right now.

I love Doom, but I don't think a movie focused on him would be a good idea. They fucked the character so hard in all the FF movies.

What haven't they fucked in all the FF movies?

Casting Michael Chiklis as The Thing?

Chris Evans as Johnny Storm wasn't bad?

Maybe I should have been more clear. I can't imagine the average movie-goer giving a shit about Dr. Doom, especially since most will only know him from the horrible takes in the various FF movies.

Kind of wasn't good there. If it wasn't for Captain American he'd never be in the Hollywood Chris off

I'd love to see some of Doom's stories that are well his stories and FF are basically not in them or very little... but he often becomes nigh omnipotent in those stories so probably wont happen

Doom is an amazing villain if done right. The problem is as stated they've proven they can't do him right several times over. Hell have him be nigh omnipotent. It would be a fun movie which is more than we can say about any other FF universe film. That or go near the whole movie and reveal at some point the Doom you've been following is just a Doombot.

Hate to say it but if they can recapture the Deadpool route with some magic from the whole secret wars thing... GG

I don't care what it takes, I must play this role. This is what I was born to do.

The merger may not get approved and/or Comcast has entered into a bidding war with Disney and they may do it.

This is why we can't have nice things

**Rulke** · 2018-06-06 19:25

How the fuck does Comast even have money to compete with Disney? Didn't they get merged into Spectrum or something? I'm not worried about Comcast.

**Delirium** · 2018-06-06 21:22

Dunno, but maybe this will help

**Rulke** · 2018-06-06 21:27

Cool read, thanks!

**Koyangi** · 2018-06-06 22:20

Couldn't they still choose with whom to do the merger with even if it's a lower bidder?

Yes, which was why Disney originally was going to win the bid even though Comcast had bid higher because the Fox shareholders believed Disney's future stock was a more stable decision.
