Aaron Sorkin In Talks With Marvel, DC

quote:

“I happen to have meetings coming up with both DC and Marvel," he said. "I have to go into these meetings and tell them as respectfully as I can that I’ve never read a comic book. It’s not that I don’t like them, it’s just that I’ve never been exposed to one. So, I’m hoping that somewhere in their library is a comic book character that I’m gonna love and I’m going to want to go back and start reading from the first issue on.”

Extended walk and talks through Avengers Mansion.

"Let Captain America be Captain America."

"You want the Groot? YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE GROOT."

I agree. On the marvel front, he could write the shite out of a Hawkeye movie based on Matt Fraction's run.

I fricking hate that guy. Hate. Hate. Hate. All these friends of mine go on and on on Facebook about The West Wing and The Newsroom and how great these shows are. It takes every ounce of self-control I have to not type "I would rather watch paint dry for 24 hours than watch a minute of The motherfricking West Wing or The motherfricking Newsroom. frick those shows and everyone who appeared on 'em."
I've never seen an episode of either show and I never fricking will.

You guys are all upset like you haven't wanted a 3 hour long Clark Kent movie. Supes is boring, I want to see the real gritty story of how Clark Kent went from greenhorn to hard-bitten news man. I can't wait for the HR manager to have a running joke about Clark's massive amount of requested leave. THE JOKES WRITE THEMSELVES PEOPLE!!!

Would be interesting if someone made a "superhero" movie but never showed the superhero parts. I'm sure it would suck but it would be interesting.

If DC wants to lose as much money as they can, Sorkin is their man.

I can that I’ve never read a comic book.


There's potential here for him and Snyder to be lifelong best friends then.

Eh the West Wing is good TV to watch and that was when Sorkin was still relatively sane and lucid and not SJW crazy.

Newsroom is where he went off the rails batshit crazy that needs to be laughed out of HBO boardrooms.

Holy crap what an awful idea.

Can't wait for the 'iron man and cap walk down a hallway exchanging rapid fire witty banter' scene.

WILL THE AVENGERS UNITE TO TAKE DOWN THE KOCH BROTHERS?!!!>?
