Creed was pretty good, good choice by Marvel desu
>Ryan Coogler is black
I don't know why but I wasn't expecting that
>>78560918
While I still think it was wrong of them to prioritise race over talent, here's hoping this guy does a good enough job that it doesn't matter anyway.
No qualms here. The hand-to-hand combat scenes are sure to be great
>>78560918
...Yeah, okay. That's cool.
Wait, Hudlin has nothing to do with this, right?
Right, all good.
>>78560918
>Coogler will be only the second Marvel director not to be a white guy
Anyway, should be interesting.
>>78560945
Considering he directed Fruitvale Station and Creed, yeah I don't know why you weren't expecting that.
>>78560918
Doubt it'll have the frogs
>>78560918
Kinda disappointed. He's too good for Marvel.
>>78560970
Something about his name. Ryan Coogler sounds like it'd belong to an Australian.
>>78560945same thing happened to me with Steve Mcqueen and Shameimblackbtw
Who?
>>78560918
Creed was surprisingly decent and Marvel movies are ghost directed by committee anyway, I'm ok with this.
>>78560991
>>78561021
I always think, "Isn't he dead?"
>>78560918
BIG
>>78561021That's excusable. After all, there was already a prominent Steve McQueen in 70's cinema.
Ugh, I bet they won't make it Black Indiana jones and his midget sidekick. Nor will they have a complex love hate relationship that BP and Princess Zander had in the first volume.

wHY are Marvel directors so much better than dc directors?
How is Marvel able to attract such high quality talent? While dc gets studio puppets?
>>78561086
>>78561143
>>78561153
>>78561156
>>78561166
And they say /tv/fags didn't shit up this board.
>>78561185
Same goes for actors desu senpai
>>78560967
Who was the first again?
>>78561185
Marvel gets talented directors and gradually breaks them down into studio puppets.
DC just cuts out the middle man.
>>78561204
>Thor: Ragnarok's Taika Waititi
Just thought it was eyeroll-inducing the way they phrased it.
>>78561185
>Fiege
>Whedon
>talent
Why do you redditors think cookie-cutter directors are akin to the second coming of Christ?
>>78561204
Taika Waititi is Maori and will direct Thor 3.
>>78561185
70+ years of comics influencing American society.
Kids who grew up on Marvel comics and are now great directors.
Marvel won decades ago on the pages.
>>78561046
Not who, but for how long? This guy is what? The third or fourth director to sign on after the first three dropped out.
>>78561194
>implying our shitposting isn't leagues better than the tumblr-meme box shithole you were when we found you
>le epic "directors are just corporate puppets for the spooky jewish media" meme
>>78561287
link?
This makes me really happy. There's a lot of heart and soul put into Creed and Fruitvale Station, and both are very well made. I'm very excited to see what he does with this property.
It's astounding that this guy is only 29 and has made two of the best films of this decade so far. Gives me high hopes for Black Panther.
>>78560918
http://www.theverge.com/2015/12/31/10695692/black-panther-movie-director-announced-marvel-ryan-coogler
The Verge also confirms.
>>78561282
This
>>78561318
It is true that the MCU's producers are like Marvel's 90 editorial, they just want a contractor to execute their vision.
>>78561287
Ava DuVernay was approached but never signed on because Marvel didn't like the ideas she had for the movie, that's about it...
>>78561254
>>78561273

>>78561185
>>78561194
and it begins
>>78561391
Whedon's comments about how much control he had over AoU say otherwise.
>>78561391
>he didn't see kiss kiss bang bang
>>78561185
The only directors Marvel has hired that actually had talent before this was Shane Black. The others are either writers who aren't nearly as good at directing or studio people who have little sense of identity in their films. Just because they're getting better people this time doesn't mean they've got a better track record.
DC on the other hand has hired over the years Christopher Nolan, Tim Burton, David Ayer, Wes Craven, and Patty Jenkins. Sure they decided to give Zack Snyder the keys to the kingdom, but that's only one strike against them.
>>78560918
Great choice!
lol remember when Priest complained that Marvel likes to have black writers only on black books? Looks like they're doing the same thing for their movies. Fucking kek.
>>78561424
>worst parts of AoU were 100% Whedon
>but the studios made it difficult
dedsilver and BruceNat were all that fat fucker's idea
Creed was fucking great so im ok with this
>>78561424
He had plenty of control. He was also contracted to make a film under 2 and a half hours. He poorly planned and shot more scenes than he needed.
If anything Marvel gave him TOO MUCH freedom. They had more control over the first Avengers and it was a much better film.
Tho I liked AoU.
>>78561431
>all those big names
>made maybe 2, 3? good movies in 4 decades
So Creed was good?
>>78561185
>Marvel's directors
>not studio puppets
Why do you think Marvel can't keep its directors for shit?
>>78561185
This is bait right?
>>78560918
That's so good on many levels.
>BP gets a good director
>Coogler will get more projects as part of his contract hopefully
>>78561391
>source: my ass
The source is all of the actual directors they've lost who have publicly said how much Fiege and company interferes.
>>78561497
Because one dragged their feet for nearly a decade and the other was pretty shit to start with but popular.
>>78561320
which two films
yeah fuck studio puppets, we need more REAL DIRECTORS

Th only decent director they have in the DCU is maybe Affleck. George Miller told them to fuck off.

You do know the frogs are from Jack Kirby's first issue of Panther's solo, right?

>>78561598
Edgar Wright never actually directed anything for them. The best director Marvel has hired was Kenneth Branagh, but /co/ doesn't know that since they only watch capeshit.
>>78561605

Poor Branagh; he wanted to be Laurence Olivier but ended up making Disney movies.

>>Marvel has interesting variety of different genre directors
>>78561681
It's quite easy to trigger you, anon.
>all those butthurt dc fans because their shitposting from the rumors that Coogler rejected Marvel was for nothing
>>78561716
And DC is structuring all their stuff around one. Yea that's going to go over quite well.
>>78561716
I mean, they do, from Joe Johnston to Kenneth Branagh to Shane Black to James Gunn to Scott Derrickson, they are all completely different, the thing is, they don't get to decide shit about their own movies and every decision goes by a gauntlet of studio suits, so everything ends up being a pasteurized brand of bland.
>>78561732
>>78561764
He should have, if he wants his career to go up; signing for Disney is something you do when your career is overe.g. Tim Burton.
Nice tears, though : )

>>78561362
I'm pretty sure she just went to that meeting so she could turn it down and everyone would be like "Oh, look how above it all she is, so principled"
It's really like a pathology for female filmmakers, because you had that big brouhaha a while back where they complained that Colin Trevorrow got to direct Jurassic World and Star Wars despite being a nobody, and that no female indie filmmaker would get a chance like that. So they asked a whole bunch of these female filmmakers, known and unknown, whether they would direct sci-fi/fantasy genre stuff and the vast majority of them went "Oh no, that's just shit for manchildren and the Chinese, we want studios to give us serious Oscar fare only"
>>78561787
>>78561814
Don't go to bed angry, son. It brings bad luck.
>>78561773
Joe Johnston and Kenneth Brannagh were from Phase 1 which was pre-Disney interference. Now the majority of their hires are literal who's who directed an episode of Game of Thrones because they're easier to push around.
>>78561779

Why would that be?
>>78561803
Better directors than Snyder and Ayer.
>>78561856
>>78561868
But that's how it works, anon. For every famous director there are a thousand nobodies; and Disney is just hiring the latter.
>>78561819
>Why don't women ever get to direct stuff that's beneath them to direct?
Coming soon to The Mary Sue.
>>78561605
Reminds me of the console wars back in the day. Nintendo vs sega.
>>78560967
So?
Why are you people hung up on race so fucking much? I haven't heard people harp on about black people and racial diversity (QUOTAS) since the Klan back in the 70s. (yes, I'm old).
But will he actually make the movie?
>>78561949
>Why are you people hung up on race so fucking much?
Because it gets clicks and ratings. Racism makes people like Al Sharpton a lot of money, so they pretend like everything is a race issue to perpetuate it.
>>78561958
The Verge says Kevin Feige himself officialized it in an interview with Empire Magazine, he also said the movie would have a predominantly black cast.
>>78562026
But will he make the movie?
>>78562042
yes
>>78562056
Anon, come on.
Let's be real.
Will he make the movie?
>>78562026
I wonder how Marvel expects the movie to do in Asia, because I remember someone translating posts on a Japanese imageboard about Boyega's casting in TFA and they made /pol/ posts look like......well, slightly better, not a great deal, but still.
>>78562070
Less creative control than James Gunn, more than Joss Whedon.
He could do better. Hell, he's already done better, this is just for the history books.
>>78562077
I think they're well aware of that and are sacrificing Asia's box office so that people in the west get off their asses on the race thing.
>>78560918
Creed was a great movie, this actually makes me hype for this movie.
>>78561582
Faggot copied my comment.
>>78562077
The people who post on japanese imageboards are the same level of people who post on /tv/. They're opinions represent the minority of minorities and they are generally to be ignored.
>>78562077
Well it's coming out in February.
Maybe they're not expecting a whole lot.
Maybe they'll have a nonblack guy who's big enough he can take up a majority of the poster and trick the chinese.
Because they seem to be fine with nonblacks and very light blacks, just not full on blacks.
>>78562077
>>78562127
Japan doesn't amount to shit in sales.
And China loves Star Wars.
>>78562115
What history books? Black superhero movies exsisted before Black Panther.
>>78562160
Maybe, but China removed Boyega from the Star Wars posters in their theaters.
I can't imagine how they'll react to a movie filled with black people.
I was under the impression TFA hadn't opened yet in China, anyway.
>>78561185
>wHY
your average marvelfag, /co/
>>78562158
Just pull an Iron Man 3 and reshoot the whole movie as being Fan Bingbing journey trying to synthesize vibranium in her lab in Shanghai.
>>78562158
The chinese have a hate boner for blacks ever since Lou Jing won that idol show.
her mom cheated on her husband with a black man and the girl ended up paying for it.
>>78562173
Yeah, but now we get to check off the "Marvel's First Majority-Black Film" and "Marvel's First Film Directed By a Black Person" boxes.
Although I guess "history books" is a bit too bombastic - those are more like notables in a trivia book or something. Wouldn't be for the history books unless Coogler got a Nobel Peace Prize for directing while black.Coogler, that's a fun name.
>>78561391
Taylor, Favreau, Whedon and Wright all walked away from the studio because of how little control they had over the movies. Favreau even made a movie about how much it sucked.
>>78562158
The sad part is that in the 90's people didn't seem to have a problem with minorities being the lead in huge movies. Zorro, Independence Day, MIB etc. But once the international market became stronger all of the prejudices of the foreign markets began effecting bottom lines and eventually even western mindsets. Those fucks in Asia took Hollywood's use of minorites back 15 years.
>>78562278
Coogler sounds like a character from American Pie.
>>78562286
>Those fucks in Asia took Hollywood's use of minorites back 15 years.
youre very welcome to fuck off if you dont want Asia buxs
>>78562200
They also made the lead woman smaller, made Han + Leia + C3P0 +R2D2 bigger, made the new cute merchandisable robot bigger, replaced the bad guy's image with a face-on version.
There's a bunch of changes - most of them reducing the non-merchandisable new characters' real estate in favour of older characters.
>>78562281
Huh? The only movies Favreau directed after he left were Cowboy & Aliens and Chef, I haven't seen Chef, but I can't see how it connects to "it sucks working for Marvel"
>>78562286
Does Zorro count? And like I said a nice big white guy to divert in all those flicks.
>>78562286
Oh, so the Europeans and Asians are the ones calling Will Smith and Antonio Banderas sellouts and wannabe-whites. Good to know, I thought Americans were doing that.
>>78562355
so fucking sick of orange and blue movie posters.
>>78562355

Chef is literally about for working with meddling executives who are controlling your creative vision.
>>78562278
Sounds like a beer brand.
Its not new and Marvel is just gonna play it safe. It wont be a fun and epic as Blade. I expect it to be mostly talking to play it safe.
>>78562436

Nobody calling Will Smith and Antonio Banderas anything. Maybe Will Smith with the whole gay thing, but it's more or less toned down.

>>78561185

>>78562396
Of course a few people did stuff like that but you can't actually believe the vast majority of minorities in the west felt that way about those guys.
>>78562482
They also removed Poe, China confirmed for not knowing what's good in life.
>>78562463
It really is and this thread proves it. It's been pretty tame on /co/ with company wars threads ever since Star Wars came out because /tv/ has been so focused on shitposting about that that they left this place alone for a while. It was nice.
>>78562464
People have been calling Will Smith stuff like "the world's whitest black guy" for years. Same deal with Wayne Brady.
There's a very specific mold that black people are expected to occupy, and it's usually other black people and their liberal friends who reinforce that mold.
>>78562457
>epic as Blade.
wut
>>78560918
Good, lets just hope Marvel doesn't restrict him too much and we another Thor 2 situation.
Marvel doesn't want him jumping ship like Patty Jenkins and directing a DC movie.
>>78561949
>Why are you people hung up on race so fucking much?
I'm quoting the article, anon.
>>78562566
I never understood that shit, what happened on Thor 2 anyway ? all i got is that the movie was going to have less Loki and it would be more "Epic" in scale
>>78562562
It had some great fight scenes and i love watching them even today. The first two at least.
>>78562566
>Patty Jenkins is set to direct Thor 2
>Leaves due to having no creative control
>Is replaced by Game of Thrones' Tom Taylor
>Game of Thrones' Michelle MacLaren is set to direct Wonder Woman
>Leaves due to having no creative control
>Is replaced by Patty Jenkins
I'll never understand it.
>>78562650
Marvel wanted it to be more like Avengers hence Jenkins departure and hiring of Joss Whedon to rewrite some of the scenes.
>>78562650
They brought in Joss "Fuck My Shit Up" Whedon to rewrite scenes while filming so they could make it funnier and Loki-er. It's the worst case of directing by committee in the MCU thus far.
http://www.newsarama.com/27375-creed-s-ryan-coogler-confirmed-as-black-panther-director.html
It was a all a ruse Folks, what the hell is going to happen then ?
>>78562654
>It had some great fight scenes
That doesn't make it epic. Blade 1 was good, especially the opening. Blade 2..... Not so much.
>>78562670
In McLaren's case it was because the creative inputs she wanted were fucking retarded
>>78562670
MacLaren didn't leave because of no creative control, she left because of creative differences. Some of her ideas were bumb fucking retarded.
>>78562708
Isn't Coogler a WB director? I thought both Creed and Fruitvale Station were WB projects.
>>78562714
>>but bu bu dc had a good reason!
sure thing D.Cuck.
>>78562650
Basically they wanted to capitalize in Loki's popularity and the "style" of Avengers, causing the director, Patty Jenkins, to walk out and be replaced by a stooge TV director and greatly reducing the role of Malekith, which caused Mads Milkkelsen who they had lined up for the role to fuck off too.
>>78562749
>There's no such thing as a good reason for creative differences
>Even giving Wonder Woman a talking tiger sidekick
Sure thing.
>>78562708
>2015 journalism at its finest
When did people start writing articles without confirming shit? The whole internet is like one big tabloid.
>>78562708
OH SHIT NIGGA! I expected him to be on for a few weeks atleast until Marvel scared him away.
What do you DO to black people Marvel?
>>78562749
A fucking Talking Lion for Diana aint exactly a good decision
>>78562709
I liked the story of Blade 2 and personal opinions on what epic means. I think as a trilogy it did its job. I dont think the same for Black Panther. Im excepting a safe as fuck movie and tons of compliants about Marvel breathing down Coolger's neck.
>>78562762
>talking tiger
Would have been cool to see on the big screen desu senpai
goddammit wb
>>78562749
I'd be inclined to agree with you had MacLaren not tried to put a talking battle tiger as a best friend for Diana in the movie.
>>78562791
It would be great, just not with Wonder Woman.
>>78562355
Honestly outside of the Kylo Ren change and removing Chewie outright the Chinese poster is better. It feels like less of a clusterfuck.
>>78562791
Maybe for the Shazam movie. I got no problems with Wonder Woman talking to animals, it's one of her super powers, but having a talking lion sidekick is fucking dumb.
>>78562812
Now that i think about it, do you think that this is why they said no ? it would make some sense
>>78562769
No respected big named Black director is gonna go to Marvel. Look how quick Selma's director said no. They know what Marvel is doing and why. They arent gonna be a token to be paraded around.
>>78560918
>Creed was pretty good, good choice by Marvel desu
Ryan is there is to just be the Black Director for a Black Super Hero Film in name only. He'll get in line like the rest before him.
I love how no one brought up DC in this thread besides people acting like marvel is hot shit then start to go
>DC SHILLS BTFO
It's hilarious.
>>78562779
>I think as a trilogy it did its job.
That's more a sign of poor taste than anything.
Blade 3 was awful and Blade 2 was bogged down by poor cgi, poor story and and poor one liners and quips "can you blush" x2 cringe.
I expect Marvel will.... once again, make an amazing film.
>>78562838
It got debunked already, we have no idea at who is directing
>>78562769
Marvel conducts all their meetings with black people in jive
>>78562866
>I expect Marvel will.... once again, make an amazing film.
Do you do it for free?
>>78562866
to be fair, the moment they said this was going to be a political movie with a mostly black cast, i got kind of turned off from the movie because i think they will pander to the whole "WE WUZ KING AND SHIT" i just hope that they make Wakanda the asshole place that it is on the comics
>>78560918

EVERY. BLACK PANTER. RUMOR. EVER!
>Popular movie of about Black People gets positive reception
>blogs everywhere: DIRECTOR OF THAT POPULAR MOVIE ABOUT BLACK PEOPLE IS THE DIRECTOR OF THE NEW BLACK PANTHER MOVIE NERD POWER YA'LL!
>>78562746
Not him, but directors are bound by distributors like that?
>>78562927
No wonder no one wants to direct it. It's probably prequel-levels of shit..
>>78562746
Creed was Fruitvale was Weinstein
>>78563009
No, but director's like to stick with a certain studio if they're being treated well and studios like to keep directors around if they're popular and bringing in positive buzz.
>>78563009
No, but often studios cultivate relationships with directors and actors like that, funding movies the artists want to do in exchange for getting them on commercial projects later on. There were several articles on film sites recently that said Universal funded Angelina Jolie's terrible bomb "By the Sea" because they wanted to keep their relationship with her and hopefully get her to star in a Bride of Frankenstein remake. Similarly why WB went along with Sandra Bullock and George Clooney's terrible "Our Brand is Crisis" because they want both of those actors to stay in their fold.
In some cases, pretty rare ones, yeah, the directors can sign exclusive contracts to studios.
>>78560918
>Marvel actually got him
That's great
>>78561819
Yeah, I read that NYT article too. Such self-serving bullshit about how Hollywood used to have great roles and films about women until Jaws and Ghostbusters made them abandon women and turn to the teenage boys audience.
These people all want to be Steven Spielberg, but they also want to skip the Jaws/ET/Close Encounters year and jump straight to the The Color Purple/Schindler's List era.
>>78563108
So if George Miller wanted another Mad Max movie, he would have to do what WB wanted him to do like direct a DC or another Happy Feet movie just to keep him in a relationship?
>>78563182
>how Hollywood used to have great roles and films about women until Jaws and Ghostbusters made them abandon women and turn to the teenage boys audience
???
>>78563210
It probably depends on the stature of the director. Angelina Jolie's a famous actress but a shit director, so they swallow the cost of her shit directing to cash in later on what they can make from her acting.
People like George Miller and Nolan have enough stature that they can probably do the projects they want and studios will go along with it.
>>78563210
They're already letting him make another Mad Max because Fury Road got such high praise. Plus, he's old and doesn't direct many movies anymore.
>>78563210
Especially in Miller's case there's a good chance Fury Road could be nominated for Best Picture and a whole bunch of other Oscars this year, so he can probably do whatever he wants.

>>78560918
Awesome choice!
Coogler directing is pretty much a guarantee seeing as this is their 2nd round of talks.
The talent Marvel has acquired for phase 3 is pretty impressive.

Get out of the Funny Book movie craze and sell the rights back to Disney for stupid amount of money.

Post yfw Ryan Coogler is actually directing Cyborg and the Metal Men movie
>>78563605
he won't have to do anything, the executive board will do most of the for him, He just has to be a black director directing a black super hero movie. That's it.
>>78563713
Wow, there are people who actually believe Cyborg will see the light of day.

>giving Wonder Woman Tawky Tawny when he's obviously a Shazam character
Don't act like that wasn't a stupid idea.

>>78563734

How much could they even ask for?
Fant4shit is a dogshit franchise under Fox but apparently they know that in Marvels hands it's a billion dollar franchise. If they sell that I can't see them being able to get away with more than 500 million for F4.
As for Mutants.... DoFP was the only one to gross more than 460 million ww and while it made over 700 million the profits were pretty small (less than 100 million I think.).
Disney paid 4 billion for all of Lucas films, I don't see X-men right being sold for much more than 1 billion. And this is not taking into account if future flicks in the franchise do poor at the box-office, which could drive the price down..

It's about as believable as yet another rumor that a Black Director of a recent popular film also starring black people is going to direct a movie about a black superhero, which has happened literally 3 times now, First with Selma, then with Straight Outta Compton, Now this.

He's made 2 good movies in a row, one a biographical drama and another a spinoff of a popular series. It shows range as a storyteller that will always look good on a resume.

Fox knows the price tag is depreciating with every installment of either IP, but they know best of everyone that the cinema cape craze will dry out eventually, and when it does, then they'll negotiate, but for now? This is to make sure Disney doesn't have complete dominance over the Summer blockbuster scene, even if it means taking a loss themselves.

It annoys me how alot of critics refused to give Peyton Reed credit because muh Edgar Wright.
Wright fucked about, took forever, and walked out over inclusion of Peggy Carter which made total sense. The movie being hermetically sealed from the MCU would be stupid.
I feel the shared universe concept bruises the egos of some directors. That's not to say all criticism of such is invalid.

I think that's unfair. She seemed very respectful and honest.
She did not fuck them around like Edgar Wright.

Because Peyton Reed didn't do shit. Paul Rudd is the one who deserves any credit since after Wright left he was the one who brought in Adam McKay to rewrite the movie and made it his. Peyton Reed was just a baby sitter.

Directing escapist movies AND indy movies is surely the most creatively fulfilling thing for a director.
You get to flex different skills in each which then feed into each other.

Feels pretty good, and Creed was great.

What ever marvel tells him to

So Andy Serkis is bound to return to play Klaw (Serkis' involvement basically confirms he'll turn into living sound at some point).
I'm guessing T'Chaka and Shuri will be in there too.
