so you are ok with being a CAD model on a Hollywood computer...without any ability to control your actions...being directed to do everything by the animator? sounds like lack of free will

His genitals are encased in... I forget what it's called. Something about the Power Cosmic?

Anyway.
The man can't use his wang.
And you wouldn't mind being him?

Will Galactus be involved? I.e. is this when the Silver Surfer is still Galactus's toady?

he want need his genitals...he's just a CAD model on a computer!

No, he's not.
He's the Herald of Galactus and imbued with the Power Cosmic.
Enough of your racist chatter!

yeah I just hate silver skins...thats what this is all about. ASS allience...Anti Silver Skins alliance

Dr. Strange would wallop the Silver Surfer.

I like the look of that clip; the Surfer looks really cool, and a nice contrast to the Torch.
Hopefully the story won't be quite as lame as the first F4 film.

Figures that you'd be in the ASS alliance. I assume the boardroom is lined with wood?

dont take it too far.

Surfer vs Strange? Nice match up James.

Who would win? Considering both characters' range of abilities.

I just found something that might damn the Silver Surfer to oblivion:

"Despite these vast powers, the Surfer is not completely unstoppable. He has in the past been wounded by vastly powerful forms of magic and by other users of the Power Cosmic, such as Galactus and his other heralds. He is not completely immune to psionics or other forms of mental attack or manipulation, although his willpower, spiritual strength, and Galactus' mental and spiritual tampering provide him with a superhuman resistance to mind control and psionics."

-http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silver_Surfer

Considering Dr. Strange is the Sorceror Supreme of Earth, he most certainly has that capacity to conjure up massive amounts of magical energy to deal with a being such as the Silver Surfer. He also has psionic abilities - so a double whammy.

Dr. Strange is awesome. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dr._Strange

That he is.

But this thread is about movies.
And the Dr. Strange movie was incredibly lame.
Let's not wish that on this one.

I think Dr. Strange could have a pretty good television show on SciFi or something. Something that deals with his character as a very serious occultist facing dark forces would be quite interesting.

Well at the current rate Marvel is at, I'm certain there will be a new Dr. Strange movie in the next few years. Since X-Men, they've turned almost every famous comic face into a movie. If there is a Dr. Strange movie, hopefully Elfman will cover music, and Raimi directs it. They made Spider-Man awesome. Marvel doesn't need another "Electra" or "Hulk".

"Hulk" Was excellent. What are you talking about?

"Electra", "Dare Devil", and "Fantastic Four" were revoltingly bad, though.

There was a Dr Strange movie?

I think there's an "Iron Man" movie around, somewhere.

DC movies always come out better than Marvel movies (examples: Captain America, Fantastic Four; exception: Spiderman, maybe). But Marvel has better characters, more interesting storylines.

I didn't like "Hulk". I thought it was a little bland, and too drawn out.

GeoffP:

They made a lot of crappy movies in the 70's and 80's based on super hero licenses.

DC only has movies presenting Superman and Batman though, and Batman Forever, and Batman and Robin I thought were absolutely horrible.

Blade was pretty good, that was Marvel.

Although I think Constantine was a DC comic, there might be a few others that are eluding me at the moment.

Yeah, I know. Awful, aren't they?

BTW - in the new Ultimate universe, Hulk doesn't come off as much of a hero. He even eats people. Nasty stuff.

The Hulk eats people now? good god. I'm so behind.

Yeah he wrecks part of New York, kills dozens of people, destroys Vegas and eventually the FF and Tony Stark trick Banner's dumb ass into a spaceship and fire him through a wormhole.

Sayonara, sucker.

Maybe the "Power Cosmic" would serve as a super condum. Talk about safe sex.

He's metallic. Does he vibrate? Could be a hit with the womenfolk.

The Silver Tickler. FOR YOUR PLEASURE.

But whoa, the Incredible Hulk is eating people now?

I have to say: I think turning him into an outright villainous monster like that isn't cool.

Why did he start to -eat- people? Any reason?

Blah. Comics sure have changed since I started with them!

Well, the "Ultimate" series is more..."Ultimate". Spidermans a teenager (actually all the X-Men are younger), Magneto's turned from a homicidal mutant supremacism into a genocidal mutant supremacist, and Colossus is gay.

The Hulk basically when he's the Hulk is not very nice, and much more prone to going apeshit nuts. He ate six nurses when he broke out of a SHIELD lockup. So not such a nice guy these days. I guess that's more "Ultimate". Also, Beast is dead - forgot that part. In the standard Marvel Uni, there's a huge war going on between Registration and Non-registration superheroes. Good series.
