Because we didn't actually have a whole pile of NW shit to lift from let's force the popular meme character again

>>85894994
It is the more attractive name.

>>Runaways on Hulu
>>New Warriors on ABC

You know, I'm becoming increasingly worried that the MCU won't have any new properties for Phase 4. I pegged both teams for their own films.

>>85894942
Cautiously optimistic.
I think I remember seeing that Squirrel Girl was originally considered for the New Warriors, anyway, so that might be a nod to that, but I'd be fine if it's just >>85894994.
Just don't get someone stupid to play her, by god.

Why call it New Warriors? New Warriors was never comedy, while Great Lake Avengers, the team she's actually from, was. Plus, you get the avengers branding, and the whole joke of "we don't actually have the rights to that name!"

>>85894942
You would think they could at least put Speedball in there.

Or make Night Thrasher out to be the meme-Batman he always appeared to be if it is a comedy series.

>>85895302
Runaways being on Hulu is very odd. I would think they should have had some deal with Netflix all things considered. Unless they got a better deal there.

>>85895593
>TV: We want to make a Great Lakes Avengers show.
>Movies: Ok, but you can't use the word Avengers.
>TV: How about New Warriors?
>Movies: Yeah, we're not using that, knock yourselves out.

>>85895302
>>>New Warriors on ABC
This is going on cable/streaming

>>85894942
If that's her animated look, I dig it.
Not the nightmare sock puppet that haunts her current comic run.

I'd have to see the show before passing judgement on it as a whole, though.

WHEN'S SPEEDBALL

>>85895302
I also figured Runaways would be Phase 4, but now I'm thinking Young Avengers is going to be their cinematic movie team.

>>85895639
Literally this.
I do hope for a squirrel girl/daredevil crossover
Not because I really care about SG but because the vast difference in tone would be hilarious

>>85895806
The vast difference in tone is exactly why they'll never crossover.

>>85895785
I hope not, it still feels really early in the MCU to start trotting out legacy heroes. But it could be cool if that was a prequel to introducing Kang via Iron Lad (if they have the rights, is he still tied up at Fox?).

>>85895302

The Runaways would have never appeared in movies just like these assholes, remember that they have been trying to push Inhumans above anything else

>>85895915
>(if they have the rights, is he still tied up at Fox?).
Yes.

EVERY TIME

>>85894942
>nuts
Well played.

>>85895623
Probably because they don't want to cross audiences pools, get the kids in on it and not have to deal with the tonal clash between Runaways and the other netflix shows.

>>85895596
They are going to be so insanely overpowered.
Offscreen invincibility and 90s hacker powers with money? Sheesh.

>>85895593
Because other than Doreen who is going to be in the show due to her apparent popularity at the moment [at least on the internet], the rest of the characters will probably be from New Warriors stuff. It'll be New Warriors [like Speedball, guys] plus Doreen.

>>85895639
They mention the Avengers all the time in the shows?

>>85895623
The way the tv department works is they reach out to tv companies and say "Hey if you want a show let us know, here are some character's we're thinking of adapting." and Hulu or Netflix says "Yeah we want -insert character/show- for fall 2016" and Marvel starts to make it.

As opposed to the films where Marvel says "Hey we're making -insert movie- for fall 2016" and then theaters go "cool we'll show it when its ready."

So Hulu asked for a Cloak and Dagger show, and that's why they're getting it over Netflix who is only asking for Defenders related stuff atm.

The weak name was the GLA's biggest weakness. It would have sold much better if it had a good name.

So....Nova?

>>85895881
The Mu has never recoverd from this.
Marvel Alchemy at work, turning gold into shit.

>>85894942
Absolute cancer.

>>85896245
If they do use a Nova it'll probably be Sam, I don't expect any of the original New Warriors to show up except maybe Speedball.

>>85896245

NOVA IS NEVER HAPPENING.

marvel gets a teen titans go? sweet.

>>85894942
Soo Squirrel girl isnt part of the FOX deal eh ?

I dunno man, they had concept art for richard done up for the first Guardians. They're obviously willing to bring him into the MCU at some point.

wait a second, wasnt squirrel girl in love with speedball, that is a good reason for using her

>>85896547

But this will probably be live action like the rest of the MCU stuff.

>>85896548

You got a source on that being Richard?

>>85895593
>Great Lake Avengers
Marvel isn't going to make any teams use the Avengers name outside the Avengers. Shit would confuse general public so fast.

wow, FOX and DC need to step up their game.

Marvel has netflix and a bunch of tv shows (Agents of Shield, Cloack n Dagger, Runaways and now the new warriors)

DC has Legends of tomorrow, flash, arrow, supergirl, Vixen and Krypton.

I dont if we can count Legion and Gotham (and the future morlock tv show) for FOX.

Doubtful. Young Avengers would confuse people or make people think they are a lame knock off of the Avengers. Unless they change the name (Champions?) it's no gonna happen.

>>85896667
but it has 'great lakes' on it
if you think people are that stupid, we need to just drop all the bombs right now

>>85895915

10 years is too early?

>>85896802

I think TV execs think people are that stupid.

>>85895916
Then what is the MCU gonna be after Infinity Wars?
>>Ant-Man 3
>>GOTG 3
>>Captain Marvel 2
>>Black Panther 2
>>Black Widow
>>Spider-Man 2
>>Dr. Strange 2
>>Avengers 5

This can't be the future!

>>85896171
Great Lakes Avengers was a great name, tho.
It made fun of West Coast Avengers and Justice League of America simultaneously.

>>85896722
Yes.

>>85896802
If you make Avengers, Great Lake Avengers, and Young Avengers all into movie/show properties, people will get confused and the brand name will become diluted.

>>85896725
Runaways is going to Hulu.

>>85897013

Why Hulu of all things? Im happy to hear it finally get out of dev hell but Hulu sucks and Marvel already has a thing going with netflix

I'm hype

>>85896804
When you put it that way it does seem better, it just doesn't feel like that much time has passed in the MCU itself.

>>85897077

Because Hulu wanted it. Marvel reaches out to a lot of different companies, not just Netflix, and if one of them wants a show, Marvel makes it.

Hulu is getting pretty big anyway, it offers a lot of content, and you can stream episodes from certain cable channels the day they air. I wouldn't be surprised to see it overtake Netflix in popularity in the next couple years.

>>85897077
Because Netflix wants their whole Defenders stick and they only film in NYC.
Runaways requires a budget.

>>85897176
Vision mentions in Civil War that it has been eight years since the events of the first Iron Man movie.

>>85897176
That's because the MCU is like a TV show whose episodes only happen twice a year. You can only fit so much in 2 hours, and let's be honest, Iron Man 2's and Thor: The Dark World's are kind of forgettable.

And the MCU Garthan is kill. He can always get resurrected and be given weird evil Nova powers though and become the big bad of Rich's movie.

>>85897447
Will be shoehorned into the Captain Marvel films.
Carol has no real supporting cast.

>>85897493
They can always come up with OC's. They always do.

>>85897503
How else would they come up with "new" comic characters to introduce soon after?

>>85897484
I don't know, MCU Saal seemed like a swell enough guy, even with his distrust of the Guardians and Ravagers. I don't think I want to see him return as a villain.

But so, you're saying that in the comics, they never picked this back up again with say, Sam Nova?

>>85894994
Fucking hope this is true. I've been hoping they'd do a comedy series based on either GLA or Superior Foes for a long time now.

>>85897484
Ego could have been a villain for Rich to fight in the MCU. Dude lobotomized Ego and then feminized him.
That ain't happening now.
I feel like one of the arcs in Vol 7 of Nova should be that Garthaan started the black Novas and was trying to recruit Tarcel.

>>85897565
You say that but we get even worse OC's in the comics instead.

>>85897602
Nextwave pls

>>85897577
Sam has never met Garthaan and I don't think he ever heard about him
The back story for his helmet is that a bunch of guys just wanted to be stronger so they formed their own group. Not sure how they scale against a centurion, but I think Marvel said black helmets were supposed to be stronger.
You may be asking yourself why Rich never knew about them and how Gamora did. Well, fuck you. Jeph didn't think any of this through.

>>85894942
Quick question. Is this a cartoon or Live action?
Either way, this series sounds like it should never exist.

>>85897686
That's so incredibly weak.

>>85897686
Sam was and still is a mistake.

>>85897605
>Dude lobotomized Ego and then feminized him. That ain't happening now
Well, they are supposed to be besties after all. You wouldn't lobotomize your best friend's pop, would you?

I think that if Rich ever shows up in the MCU it'll be as a young unexperienced Nova who gets mentored by Peter, sort of like Tony/Spidey. And maybe he can snatch away Pete's lil' sister since it seems he's ending with Gamora.

>>85895035
Why the fuck does Marvel hate the New Warriors so much?

>>85897778
Give it a year. They'll take him off Nova and make it a solo about Rich, and Champions will get cancelled within ten issues.
He's going to be fading into obscurity very quickly.

>>85896657
Absolutely nobody, this piece of shit can rot in development hell.

>>85897790
I'd rather have him hang out with another powerhouse and very quickly move on to being the Lone Ranger.

>>85897833
>and Champions will get cancelled within ten issues
So much wasted potential. No wonder Marvel's sales are dying.

>>85897797
Because they aren't popular. That's basically how Marvel's pecking order happens.

>>85897797
They're too closely affiliated with Nova. Marvel fucking hates him.
He could sell ASM numbers after he comes back and Marvel would still hate his ass.

>>85897921
>Marvel fucking hates him.
They don't.

Breevort and co. hate their fans and they want to push Sam as much as they can before giving up. The only reason he still exists is because the little "trinity" he forms with Miles and Kamala.

>>85897879
I don't pity the company that sells each issue at $4

That's what I mean. Why not make them older and cast her instead of pretending like this or Runaways and whatever other teen Marvel shows are actually getting made.

This shit is Damage Control tier. Not gonna happen.

>>85898653
It's not going to be a cartoon though. Are you being dumb?

>>85898627

Anna Kendrick's little brother sent her a SQ comic and said she'd be a cool Squirrel Girl. Anna Kendrick mentioned this in an interview, and said something along the lines of "I don't know anything about her but I could be a squirrel." and suddenly everyone started hyping her up as a potential Squirrel Girl.

I love Anna Kendrick but I personally don't see her being a good Doreen, idk.

>>85898519
Squrriel Girl was gonna become the Jar Jar Binks of the MCU anyways.

>>85898687

I think the inherent silliness of SQ would work better live action of she is younger, with a team of young characters to interact with. A older, adult SQ in college would be like the Tick meets Community, which sounds dope but I think it'd be hard to make it appeal to mainstream audiences.

>>85898627
This shit happens all the time. Remember that Old Spice guy really wanting to be Luke Cage?

Wasn't there a comedy new warriors where they had a reality show?

Also, is this live action or animated?

>>85896384
>>85896657

They need at least one designated black guy. Their choices are, what rage, night trasher, maybe rocket racer?

I'd bet they have either firestar, or namorita but not both.

>>85894942

This is going to crash and burn. You can tell it'll be corny as fuck and traditional superheroics (and by that I mean the old mentality of what superheroes are, save cats out of trees and etc) is dead in media, so riffing on it will be terrible. Plus the effects will be dogshit.

I think people are taking the wrong message when it comes to the Avengers' popularity. The Avengers and related films work because they are action films with action heroes that happen to be superheroes. They don't go into the film thinking these are superheroes (particularily the old mentality of it).

>>85895623

Netflix doesn't want to be known for only making comic book shit. It's why they won't expand beyond what they currently have.

>>85897686
Anon, did the fact that the Black Novas called themselves "the supernovas" and Garthan Sal's name was "Supernova" not put two and two together for you?

>>85895409

Why is Squirrel Girl being pushed so hard?

>>85900024
That's fine too. If you haven't noticed, the media giants really don't give a fuck about your opinion.

>>85900102
She's a female lead, who can currently sustain her own title. She's unencumbered by old licencing contracts. She doesn't require years of fucked up continuity to use. She has some neckbeard support from her GLA days, and her waifu power. And her new run has some legbeard and new millenial support.

Considering that Marvel is digging deep enough to give Jessica Jones a show, this isn't that suprising. Even if her current comic has eyebleedingly bad art, and she barely makes the D list.

>>85900078
It's been 4 years since the black helmet Novas were introduced and Marvel still hasn't so much as mentioned Garthaan.
They even devoted OS for Sam to finding out the origins of the black Novas and Garthaan had nothing to do with their incredibly bland back story.

>>85900237
>If you haven't noticed, the media giants really don't give a fuck about your opinion.
I never said or implied that they did, I'm just complaining on an Anonymous image board about stupid shit that bothers me.

>>85903130
Why wouldn't they?

>>85900940
Yeah this was what came to mind. If AoS resulted in a new Ghost Rider book by Smith, does that mean Yost will be writing another New Warriors?

>>85895302
i mean, they still can do thunderbolts and maybe secret avengers and such.

>>85903157
Because she's an M-Word.

>>85903130
We don't really know. She never was in the x men was she? If that's the case, she might be in the same basket as Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch.

This is first time I want them to take inspiration from Dan Slott, actually.

Because alternative is Unbeatable Squirrel Girl.

>>85905318
An Alex?

>>85905355
She was in the X-Men recently, but that was a very brief stint.

Her rights might be weirdest of all. She's a mutant (Fox) who debuted on a Spidey cartoon (Sony) but in comics primarily featured in the New Warriors (Marvel).

>>85905495
being a Mutant doesn't automatically make one Fox property, as seen with Squirrel Girl, she was considered a normal mutant until very recently after all, the important thing is where the character debuted in, and which segment of the Marvel Universe they're most associated with

>>85895035
To be fair they probably don't have the rights to Firestar and Namorita

>>85899878
>I'd bet they have either firestar, or namorita but not both.

Firestar is a mutant from a Spider-Man cartoon and Namorita is with Universal, so probably neither.

So, who should be Squirrel Girl?

We know Eden Sher has met with Marvel and she used to be the person speculated to possibly become SG before this year. I guess she could do that type of humor

Anna Kendrick said on twitter she could be SG and the Russos supported that, but I think it's unlikely she'll do a show as minor as this. (and I don't think her look fits SG)

Shannon Purser wants to be SG as well and has support from some random director. I haven't seen Stranger Things, so don't know how her acting is.
