This is one of the few movies that actually DO need a reboot because it sucked balls but was a cool concept

This. Hollywood needs to trend these kinds of reboots instead.

Better keep the rape scene in

What is it about?

Too late, we already have Penny Dreadful.

Various literary characters are assembled to save the world, Allan Quartermain, Mina Harker, Captain Nemo, etc etc

I think this would be way better as a series honestly

ALL BLACK CAST NOW!!!

Who are those unknown characters? why can't they be superheroes like Superman or Joker?

19th Century Justice League

>We already have Penny Dreadful
This, honestly.

The League works well in comics because Moore is a psychopath, but Penny Dreadful is closer to a solid adaptation of the concept than I think Fox will be able to pull off.

I'm looking forward to it. I enjoyed the previous movie.

only took you 6 minutes this time

Idris Elba as Dorian Gray? I'm in.

so will it be league of extraordinary black women this time around?

I kinda liked the original..its cheesy like Van Helsing

So how can this movie appease the massive crowds of vocal people that find everything offensive nowadays?

Quattermain is transgender, Nemo is...well he's already a minority...Mina is lesbian. And Black.

Dorian Grey is Chinese. And gay.

And Hyde can be white since he's a monster.

How do you fuck up a movie with Victorian era fictional characters teaming up for a superhero movie?

This graphic novel is pretty overrated desu, local comic shop lady reccd it to me. The story really falls apart in the last quarter. I was disappointed because it starts off so fucking cool.

Did the Sean Connery one have the airship battle in it?

>Fox
lel. They're almost as bad as Sony.

As long as the Invisible Man is a woman and Jekyll/Hyde are transgender I'm game!

Nemo simply has to be a Muslim! Maybe the Invisible Man could be black...

The Invisible Man will be a black father.

Nemo was a Sikh in the original..

I unironically enjoyed this movie and do not want to see a remake made

>Another reboot

>the Invisible Man could be black...
triggered

>Plebs dont appreciate the kino that was the Sean Connery one

this so much

It's not kino. It's a perfect example of "so bad it's good".
Learn the difference, child.

Fuck off

i would really love them to do a completely faithful and artistically satisfying adaptation of the original comics, if only because i feel like that would make alan moore even more butthurt than when they fuck it up

Dr Jekyll is a black man but he turns into an evil rampaging aryan-white monster.

>avengers team made up of public domain characters they don't have to pay rights for

what's not to love?

The Connery movie is very comfy, I like it.

it made SC quit film altogether

I really hope they'll pick John Hurt to replace Connery.

Sikhs aren't oppressed enough.

That still triggers me because that would mean that black people have a dark side and that's racist.

>tfw I remember liking it as a kid
>haven't seen it in years and afraid to rewatch

What about Sir Billy?

Indeed, the comics just have too much stuff to condense in a single movie.

They're even rebooting the fucking flops now. You fucking fags need to start boycotting this shit.

Are we really going to sit here and take blow after blow of mindless capeshit???

We need to at least put up a fight

Just read the comic then.

He only made that to support scotland. He even worked pro bono.

The lesson to be learned from Tarzan, Ben Hur, John Carter, etc. bombing....more old shit!

>Sean Connery refuses to be Gandalf in LoTR with a box office % bonus
>Huge Success
>Bloody hell!
>Sean Connery refuses to be The Architect with a box office % bonus
>Box office success
>Bloody fuck!
>Sean Connery accepts to be in League of Extraordinary Gentlemen with a box office % bonus
>Movie bombs
>Fuck films! I'm out to Bahamas! Scotland Independence when!

No wonder he lost his mind.

This is fascinating.

> implying Fox won't make it even dumber and just as filled with shitty cg

I guess i could see him as the architect, but he would have made a shit gandalf with his perpetually smug expression.

Brosnan in Gerry Adams mode would be a GOAT Quartermain.

Plus, pottery

this i want to see oldman brosnan instead of midlifecrisis brosnan, age gracefully
