46:40 about Gambit movie. They heard that script is fantastic. The character is fun so they do not want it to be really dark movie.

Well thank god, I feel like people arent really happy about this movie for a few reasons, one of which not having rogue in it, cause lord knows we cant have something for just the gambit fans and that there are other x-men that deserve it more then Remy....WHICH THEY ARE WRONG

Well those two sentiments come from similar sources. The vast majority of people that hear that Gambit's getting a movie, but are disappointed about not having Rogue in it are the 90s fans; the fans that started reading because of the show (small minority), and those who never read but love the X-Men because of the show (the vast majority). The small voices yelling in the crowd "he doesnt deserve a movie" stem from the same fans that didn't like that he was in the show over the likes of Iceman, Nightcrawler, Colossus, Dazzler and Kitty. They have younger acolytes that echo their sentiments, and sadly a few of these became writers who did their own thing, despite a lot of negative fan reaction (a lot of the more damning things they'd do to Gambit would be eventually fixed by the following writer or flat retconned by the editors). In the end it's all very small in terms of the amount of people that will ultimately see the film(s). All they do is piss off producers via cyber harassment, and spook studio types that put too much emphasis on the anonymous internet reaction. Take "Edge of Tomorrow" for example. It turned out to be one of the best movies of the year, but was nearly a financial failure due to preconceptions.

End of the day, its an X-Men movie with a recognizable character being played by an a-lister, directed by a man that has several franchise worthy hits under his belt. It'll be OK.

Rogue being flung vagina-first at the first male that pops up on her radar isn't how I'd define "romance," but Marvel must be using a different dictionary than me.- NicoPony

If they go the Sinister route I hope Cranston gets the role. He actually wants it. Even if its a different actor portraying Sinister to start, it'd be awesome to see him shapeshift and reveal Cranston as his true form. My wish is that they ground the character as much as possible, don't call him Mr Sinister, but Essex or his whole name if he starts out as a supporting character and not the "big bad".

Sinister isn't a throw away villain. He should be able to stick around and cross over back and forth throughout the franchises. I have high hopes. I just hope the script is good and not forcing too much synergy amongst the shared universe like Marvel is starting to do.

That Sinister shapeshifter idea has some sweetness. I mean, ideally it's time for Fox to stop following Marvel very soon from now, after AoA what's really left? I mean except to sign a deal with Marvel where the Avengers get beat down? :)

Don-yeah, general movie/cartoon fans don't really care about a lot of the stuff in the comics. Because honestly, some of it doesn't make sense or is just too 'wierd' and sometimes had cover art that they wouldn't be caught dead holding. ;). They don't know about gambit getting shafted by a string of writers who hated the 'the 90's'.  or that rogue got favored because she was a more 'classic' character, who they all wanted to hook up their 'favorite' character. Even if they did know, they'd likely say ' well don't use that in the movie because it's dumb anyway' 'make it more like the cartoon because that was 'better''

I haven't seen this news anywhere else, so either there's an announcement planned later this week and Collider jumped the gun or nothing is official still and Collider jumped the gun.

Kids, this is a friendly reminder to always get double confirmation, that's what I'm waiting for.

The guys at Collider dont say something is "official" if it's not. They dont even report on the BleedingCool stuff until after its official or been shot down. Not to mention they headlined the episode with the News.
