Why do they keep holding it hostage? Just let the fucking guy make his movie. The first one was ok, the comic was good and the HBO series was kino.
>>219119153its not happening. that movie has been in talks fr 10 years
>>219119153Because Spawn just looks cool and that's as much mileage as you can get out of him. Todd's based. Love his art and he seems like a cool guy but Spawn just kinda fucking sucks.
>>219119626This. Faust is better.
>>219119626>Spawn just kinda fucking sucks.
>>219119626This is image comics in a nutshell. Lots of great artwork, but little substance.
>>219120235Based and true >>219120273Settle down, Beavis
>>219119626>Todd's based
>>219120345That was Image in the early days because it was founded by a bunch hotshot artists with no writing experience. But while Erik Larsen spent the next 30 years writing Savage Dragon himself until it degenerated into nothing but a platform for his politics and fetishes, Todd was a bit smarter and hired writers more competent than himself for Spawn. They did add some substance. No way the comic would have lasted this long just on looking cool, seeing as nothing else from Image's original wave is still around (other than Dragon because Larsen won't let it die).
It has its niche.Assassin coming back from the dead only to find his previous life destroyed and his sanity slowly slipping away. The "timer" on his powers meaning there's immediately a forward momentum to the story rather than just the status quo (despite the counter later being removed). The emphasis on the religious gimmicks and themes, a pretty solid cast of side characters. Initially it was also influenced by Sin City and Se7en with a lot of crime and punishment type of mini arcs, but later on it went full occult and was juggalo coded.All in all a pretty interesting trajectory.Hellspawn by Ashley Wood and a lot of other spinoffs with Spawns through the ages were at the very least interesting.
>>219119153>The first one was shit, the comic was lame and the HBO series was barely okayFTFY
>>219119367Things have been delayed longer and still released.
>>219119153No one is holding anything hostage, the fucker can put up his own money and make whatever Spawn movie he wants. He's asking for millions of dollars from studios and full creative control and no one is going to give him that especially now that comic slop movies are dead. He should have taken the deal they offered ten years ago when comic slop was still profitable. He's doing fine with his Spawn royalties and licensing money, but the actual Spawn comic barely breaks even like most major comic books and he just does it to sell merchandise.
>>219124967Spawn is beyond comic slop, peon.
>>219119153Spawn is culturally irrelevant
>>219119153Because Spawn is a nigger and no one wants to see that.
>>219125695Yea to the lane stream
>>219125469Spawn is slop even by comic book standards
what's more likely to happen first: a new Spawn movie or a Metal Gear movie?
>>219119153The Toddfather has never been wrong in his life. We wanted to make comics his way and that made him the richest man in the business. He wants to do his movie his way, and you'll watch it eventually make morbillions.
>>219124071>as nothing else from Image's original wave is still aroundYou sure about that, bud?
Sorry Im only interested in seth McFarlane spawn movie>its worse than the time I came back from hell Lois
He’s turned into a nigger faggot, simple as. He’s made enough money over the last 20 years to have fully financed the entire film. I doubt it ever gets made at this point.

>>219126702How the fuck does he do it? Wasn’t he off designing nhl logos?
>>219124967>>219119153Pssst. The reality is that Jason Blum lured Todd, initially agreeing that he should direct, citing the old HBO series, but with the expectation that Todd would either cede his dream of directing or worst case Todd would basically fund the project. The fucked up thing is that Todd didn't get the hint so Blumhouse strung him along with notes to "improve" his script, until they overstepped by publicly implying it needed to reflect George Floyd and BLM, rather than rely on the POV of cops. Jamie Foxx had a stroke, Jeremy Renner lost his ability to stroke, Blumhouse thought Todd would cave, he's an autist. Pretty shitty situation, luckily there are two directors with recent hits who grew up with the comic who might help Todd as producers or shadow directors to secure a $25 million budget.
Truth of the matter is that the property is pretty weak and it will likely get ridiculed than get some positive buzz. The first movie made the entire franchise a joke and the comic veered heavily into juggalo territory so there's a lot to be clowned on there (pun intended).McFarlane is not stupid, he knows all this and is sitting it out.

>>219127597>Blumhouse Productions, LLC, doing business as Blumhouse, is an American independent film and television production company founded in September 30, 2000 by Jason Blum and Amy Israel.hmmm
>>219126431well joe rogan recently praised spawn as "a badass movie"' and a "big hit in the 90s" he said this to the actor who played spawn lmao
>>219127679>look up her biography>"Israel is a member of the Producer’s Guild.">"Israel is based in the SHOWTIME offices in Los Angeles.">mfw>>219127516>Jamie Foxx had a stroke, Jeremy Renner lost his ability to strokeNicely done!
>>219120345Spawn didn't have enough substance for hundreds of issues, but there should be enough for a single good movie
