Guest Sympl&Klyn Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 Aww. I saw the thread title on the main page and thought this was gonna be about a Venom anime. That would be sick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QueenoftheDorks Posted May 4, 2020 Share Posted May 4, 2020 Venom was surprisingly enjoyable though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chapinator_X Posted May 5, 2020 Share Posted May 5, 2020 I bet this movie’s screenplay was sort of a loser on its home planet. This movie will blow past by the general populace, like a turd in the wind. When the reviews come out, there’s gonna be Carnage! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainStarwind Posted May 5, 2020 Share Posted May 5, 2020 I think OPM is the kind of series that lends itself well to a live action adaptation, so if a movie is made for it I assume that it wouldn't do terribly. Though the question is whether they try and Americanize it or just keep it as is. Either way, I won't be watching. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jman Posted June 13, 2022 Author Share Posted June 13, 2022 Justin Lin has signed on as a director. You may remember him from running from the set of the latest Fast and Furious movie SCREAMING. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasqueradeOverture Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 (edited) ... I can see it. Calling it now: Anthony Carrigan's getting the lead role. Edited June 13, 2022 by MasqueradeOverture 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daos Posted June 14, 2022 Share Posted June 14, 2022 I'd love it if this was actually good. But that's not a thing Hollywood is really capable of these days is it? If they can't make a good Star Wars, Star Trek, Predator, Robocop, Jurassic Park, or Terminator movie...... are they really going to be able to adapt this?

Jman Posted June 14, 2022 Author Share Posted June 14, 2022 Apparently when this was first announced the rumor was they wanted Henry Golding to be bald for it. Which hey, Asian lead playing a character called Saitama… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OwlChemist81 Posted June 14, 2022 Share Posted June 14, 2022 There's a 99% chance this will be worse than Season 2... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasqueradeOverture Posted June 14, 2022 Share Posted June 14, 2022 OR... Saitama is the bastardised name of a Japanese prefecture. So, what if the Protag in the US version is an ennui-choked former Wall Street banker named Floor Reedah (as played by Noho Hank)? ... This movie's stillborn holy shit.
