A Disappointing Marvel Panel At San Diego Comic Con Announced
The San Diego Comic Con is scheduled for the middle of July. Today, Marvel Studios announced its panel for the event:
Marvel Studios: Saturday, July 14th 6:00pm – 7:00pm (Hall H) – Marvel Studios presents Iron Man 3. Join Producer Kevin Feige and special guests as they provide an inside look at the ever-expanding Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures: Thursday, July 12th 2:05pm – 3:05pm (Hall H) – A Q&A panel featuring the imaginative director of Frankenweenie, Tim Burton; A special look at the world of Oz The Great and Powerful with director Sam Raimi; the illustrious voice cast of Walt Disney Animation Studios’ Wreck-It Ralph, including John C. Reilly, Sarah Silverman and director Rich Moore.
I’m guessing Robert Downey, Jr. will be present for the panel. I’d also expect some details on the upcoming Thor and Captain America sequels.
But overall, doesn’t it seem a bit, well, underwhelming? After all, they have some other movies in the works besides Iron Man 3.
I’d like a Deadpool movie, but I strongly suspect Hollywood would botch it. I don’t care if they trash Antman, though.
Spider-Man 2099 would be cool, too…but once again, they’d probably ruin it.
As far as futuristic super heros go, I like Batman Beyond more than Marvel’s 2099 series. Though I still remember when Spiderman 2099 got his powers and the blades on his fingers. He tested it on his chest and was relieved that they retracted. He said something along the lines of, “Thank God, if it didn’t retract, picking my nose would be lethal and going to the bathroom would be an adventure.”
