Elektra the movie
 
Any one else planning on seeing this?

I really hated the daredeveil movie, but this dosent look to bad.

Spitfire 12-31-2004 02:58 PM

Ive seen the preview a couple of times. It looks okay Im not sure if Im going to see it. I might wait for DVD depending on what I hear about

Honestly, WTF? Elektra? Way to go Marvel, throw out a whole movie about a hero the general public has never heard of. They are really catering to the fanboys with this one. Doubt I'll ever see it, maybe when it's on TV.

I don't really know about this one. I may see it just for the sake of seeing it. Marvel movies are usually pretty good.

Barkworm 12-31-2004 05:04 PM

I hated most of the Daredevil movie but this one looks interesting.

I agree, I liked Daredevil, if for nothing more than for Bullseye, but seriously, **** Elektra. Figuratively.

This doesn't look apealing at all. I imagine this'll probably be worse than the Namor movie. Hell, at least he has a mullet, and that's funny.

**** this movie.

Wait for Fantastic 4, or Constantine, or Batman Begins, ****, go see Fat Albert, I think it'd be better than this.

Dane E5R 12-31-2004 06:39 PM

You know what bothers me? She's wearin' the red suit, great, but dammit, I want her to wear that hat too.

Barkworm 01-01-2005 02:59 AM

Didn't she have it in one of the trailers?

cqb101 01-01-2005 09:51 PM

I loved Daredevil and I think this looks great. I'll be there opening day.

JameO 01-04-2005 11:16 AM

I'll probably go see this in the opening week or right after. Looks pretty interesting and these kind of movies are usually good.

I agree with both points here. I don't see the motive behind this film being made other than the longing from fanboys to see it. Also, I don't see myself going to a theater for this when I don't even follow the character as closely as say, another Marvel hero who needs a film -- Captain America.

I'll probably get dragged to see this only to get out of the house.

I agree, remember the one made in '91 I never saw it but I know enough about it to know what a peice of trash it was. It didn't even make it to the theaters did it? Anyways Jennifer Garner in tight fitting clothing :o count me in. But I probably wont see it though. :ohwell:

Brodie 01-04-2005 06:47 PM

Jenn Garner in tight leather?

That's no reason to spend 8 bucks, dude.

a million Affleck fangirls used that as their reasoning for seeing Daredevil.....Look where that got him...

If you read again you will see I said I not going to see it anyways.

ThirdMarioBro 01-05-2005 12:45 AM

I thought she died anyways...

azure turtle 01-05-2005 12:56 AM

Well... This seems like an ok flick. I may actually see it in the theatres, but only if the reviews are decent. I believe Elektra is supposed to fight against the Hand, which I'd like to see since the Foot Clan was a parody of that...

damnhooligan 01-05-2005 01:08 AM

I'll see it, if only because my husband has a celeb-crush on Jennifer Garner and I've got one on Jason Issacs. Whenever we pop out to see action movies like this, we always make some sort of drinking game out of it as alcohol is served at the theaters here. Like I, Robot's rules were simple: Every time Will Smith jumped onto/off of something, take a drink. If he says "AWW HELL NAW!", finish the bottle. I suspect with Elektra, I'll have to chug everytime I hear "B-but you're supposed to be dead!"

True. But remember these two things:
1) It's Marvel
2) It's Elektra

Didn't her body disappear at the end of the film? I can't remember exactly but I think it did.

I'm not sure about Elektra, the effects look good on the trailer but I don't think I'll rush out to see it.

Actually I'm pretty sure they explain that she's brought back to life by some kind of group.

Storm Wolf 01-06-2005 12:04 PM

The previews didn't look to awful, but then again the previews they did show could be the only good thing in the movie. I'm pretty sure I'm not going to see it on the big screen, simply because I wasn't to thrilled about Daredevil (Did anyone else think Ben Affleck could have been substitiuted for someone....better for the role?). Previous to the Daredevil movie, I had no clue Elektra even existed. Marvel movies have been pretty decent in the past though, so It might be worthy of catching when it comes out on DVD.

I know I did. I always thought that Matt Damon at least would have been better. I've been known to say that Affleck was a big problem about the movie, more than Michael Clarke Duncan as Kingpin, which I had no problem with, actually.

there doing it like the comic, she died in the comics, and for some reason came back, I think thats when she started wearing white.

Brodie 01-06-2005 08:27 PM

She was brought back by the ninja group called The Hand, now you see where Laird and Eastman got the idea for the Foot? Har-dee-har-har.

She wore red for years after she came back. She started wearing white for some other reason.

Raven 01-07-2005 03:43 PM

I think it will be a interesting movie, looks like there are alot of interesting characters that she must face, like thet guy who has some power of animals comming out of him!

raphael21 01-09-2005 02:48 PM

The New Elektra movie looks awesome!
 
I can't wait to see the new Elektra movie! I found this cool website called MARVELCollections.com that has all sorts of cool Elektra gear for fans. It has Elektra jewelry, like the necklace she wears in the film, and action figures. The site also has stuff for all of the other MARVEL characters and movies. Any true comic book fan has to visit this site!

:D

yeah.. count you and about another million men across North America in... face it, sex sells... Jenniffer Garner is Hot right now... there just playing off the success of Alias... I'm gonna go see it... but thats cause I've heard of Elektra before and wanna see what they do with her story... oh yeah, and I absouletly hated DareDevil... Ben Affleck is the most overpaid actor in Hollywood...

:lol:

Mandi-chan 01-12-2005 03:28 PM

I never saw the Daredevil movie because it didn't really capture my interest, I didn't think it looked bad or anything it's just...I wasn't too interested in it. I want to see it now though because I really want to see this movie! It looks so cool!

Did Elektra have her own set of comics?

Kazari 01-12-2005 03:32 PM

I saw Daredevil and it was decent! I kind of want to see Elektra then I kind of don't lol
