Agent Coulson on his Involvement in Coming Marvel Movies -- Includes New Info!

Not trying to be harsh but im just saying.

I hope he's kidding about playing his own grandfather. Its kind of sad he'd ask.

Ha Batmans a cupcake I knew it lol

Marvel has faith in their movies, and will continue them at a rapid pace simply because they can. Unlike Warner Brothers, who owns DC but has barely utilized any characters in films outside of Superman and Batman, and are just now starting to really tap into the true potential of what they have, Marvel Studios have only one resource... the comic characters they haven't already sold away the rights to.

That puts Marvel in an odd situation. Take what characters they haven't bartered to Fox, Sony, or the other studios, and run with them. And in my opinion, they're doing that with intense passion. They're forced to take chances no other studio would dream of. WB could've been leading up to a Justice League movie any time in the last 20 years. Marvel's going to do it first, and do it well.

Much like their characters, Marvel superheroes are flawed underdogs who go all out, Marvel Studios is doing the same. I respect the integrity and diligence Marvel is giving it's fans in creating movies which have dominated the live-action movie world the last few years, and although I think Green Lantern and eventually The Flash will be great films, I think WB needs to step up to the plate and embrace their DC properties as fully as Marvel does their own.

It's not so much that Agent Coulsen is an amazing character it has more to do with the fact that he is the most defined link between all these films.

Having said that I thought his performance in the first Ironman film was excellent. It really captured what SHIELD was all about whilst being very understated.

I think they call that subtext!

Very cool guy. He's an awesome actor and Marvel/Jon Favreau made a great choice by including him in Iron Man back in 2008. I can't wait to see what his role will be in The Avengers that's for sure! Great find Galactus! :)

That Would Be Cool If He Came Out With His Own Movie!

@TABOO13 - I believe Hercules has the full power of Zeus now, so he and Thor are going to take Silver Surfer down in short order.

Back to the article. This guy is hilarious. If he is a skrull of something I hope they can rescue the real Coulson to keep him in the films.

@TheDarqueOne - Ditto to your post.

Well I like his character, he is a great actor and all. But his character is gonna be a member of the team or what? ugh, dont get me wrong but I think he should be only a SHIELD agent who is on the movie, not a member of the team.

@TABOO13 - Silver Surfer and Thor are both awesome. They're both aces.

Considering the Ultimate Fury is based off of him I cannot imagine anyone else in the role. Sorry sexfoodcomics.

@ Taboo

That comment was meant for anyone thats said its being rushed. But in all seriousness, how do you feel its being rushed? don't you think they've planned enough?

and, "go chew another weenie?" really? because i pointed out how absurd it is to think that? whatever. i guess in your world you make a good argument...
