Remember when The Punisher was in Spider-Man 2?

>the Punisher only killed minorities in the deleted scenes

What did Raimi mean by that?

>there won't be an MCU where tobey maguire unmasks in civil war and norman osborn reveals he never died

>>79738199
It really does make me wonder what could of happend if the 3rd movie didn't leave a bad taste in people's mouth. We could of gotten to see black cat, Bruce Cambell as Mysterio and other crossovers. The Thomas Jane punisher would make for a very interesting ally/adversary too.

>remember the punisher

nope

Hey the WhatCulture anon is back!

Honestly what if it kicked off the MCU instead of iron man?

>>79739356
Iron Man not getting the sudden insane popularity boost and being made the top dog everywhere in the comics and movies would have such raimifications that it's hard to imagine how things would have looked.

Hell, just the fact that it would have started with street-level heroics instead of Iron Man fighting terrorists and evil CEOs would have changed things. Cap fighting in WWII would have felt like a big step up from Spider-Man fighting some dudes in NY and then the Avengers coming together to save NY would have felt a lot bigger.

>>79737397
I unironically love the Punisher. Only the one with Thomas Jane though.

>>79739482
I hope that timeline exists.

>>79739228
I still don't understand why they scrapped the idea.

I get that Spiderman 3 was flawed in a lot of different ways, but it was still average and enjoyable, and more importantly, it was the highest grossing movie in cinemas for a long while.

Surely for the people in charge, that would be enough to go ahead with a 4th movie.

>>79739356
We'd have a series of R-rated Marvel movies featuring Punisher, Nicholas Cage Rider and Blade going on brutal rampages.

>>79740335
The company is pretty much the guide on how to continually fuck up. I'm surprised that there was a Spider-Man 3 to fuck up.

>>79739638
Same here, I wish he would make a comeback.

>>79739356
that would have required marvel having the merest shred of business savvy and acumen, and they would have had a better guy than quesada as head of the projects back before the MCU.

Thomas Jane as the punisher in more than one movie, would have been great. he plays the insane vengeful bastard well as miller in the expanse.

BARRACUDA SOLO FILM WHEN?

marvel cinematic alternate universe

>>79739638
Yeah that movie got me into Punisher, went to see it in theaters and my dad surprised me by buying "The Circle of Blood" comic in paperback.

Is there any chance the Netflix series will be like this?

Remember when Johnny Storm was in Captain America?

>>79741182
How fucking lucky is this guy? He got a shot at playing Johnny Storm and then when that failed he got an even bigger shot at playing Captain Goddamn America. Most other actors would have just been dumped on the street after their first shot failed.

I guess you could say the same for RDJ, coming back from his drug-abuse and ostracising from Hollywood only to end up being the multimillion posterboy for Marvel/Disney.

>>79741291

Evans was actually on his way to becoming a serious actor. Too bad he went the capeshit route.

>>79741291
Also Ryan Reynolds with Green Lantern and Deadpool

>>79741342
Reynolds was Deadpool two years before he was Green Lantern though and it was terrible. He got what was basically a third chance.

>>79741364
Shit I totally forgot that, makes it even more impressive
AND he's fucked both Blake Lively and Scarjo
Damn, he is favoured by the gods

>>79741342
>>79741364
Y'all are forgetting Blade 3.

Ryan Reynolds must hold the record for second chances. He's also up there with Nic Cage in terms of being a comic-nerd who just don't know when to say no to a bad role.

>>79741397
Wait, what did he do in Blade 3? I don't remember Blade 3. Or 2. Or 1

>>79741412
He was the comic-relief human.

He was original a pet of Parkey Posey's character, but by the time of the movie him and Biel's characters were vampire hunters

>>79741449
>>79741459
Wow. He's really crawled his way through the shit and come out sparkling clean.

>>79741483
He must be REALLY fucking charismatic in RL to pull all of that shit off. Or he sucks a mean dick. It'd probably be a riot to hang out with him, either way.

>>79740505
>that would have required marvel having the merest shred of business savvy and acumen

Are you an idiot?

>>79740853
Do they ever team up in the cartoons or comics? I need this.

>>79741529
I think he is just actually passionate about what he does for a living. and really likes nerd shit. but yeah I'd love to have a beer with him.

>>79743019
Yeah but Nic Cage is just as passionate and into nerd shit, if not way more. But he couldn't convince them to make more Ghost Rider movies, much less give him other roles. You need more than passion, clearly.

>>79743064
did a high school art student draw this?

>>79743088
To be fair, his Ghost Rider movies didn't fail because of him in the role.

>>79743088
nic cage is fucking insane though.

>>79742287
marvel had shitloads of money in the early 90's, and assloads of artistic talent, and decent writers.

then they took all the money and bet the house on POGs and holographic variant covers.

look at teh stock ipo they did. and how badly thye got raped on all fronts in the sale of the IP of the fantastic 4. like 4 or 5 different times.
