Posted 8/22/11 1:30 pm EST by in Twitter Report

"Rise of the Planet of the Apes" reviews are still coming in, too. Check out a couple of those and a concern about "The Adventures of Tintin: Secret of the Unicorn" after the jump.

Posted 1/7/11 1:01 pm EST by in Twitter Report


Joe Quesada artworkAlan Moore was a hot topic yesterday, but no one in the discussion about his controversial opinions went quite as far as artist Mark Brooks did last night.

As far as my own opinions go, Chris Ryall tweeted one of the most exciting messages of the day Thursday; I don't know what he's hiding, but if Geof Darrow made it, I want to see it.

Corey Lewis, meanwhile, wants you to see "The Fighter," and Kevin Smith does not want you to see his new movie "Red State" while under the influence of marijuana. Smith's explanation and some killer Joe Quesada artwork can be found down below.

'Huckleberry Finn' Edits, Dead Birds, And Crying With 'The Iron Giant' In Today's Twitter Report

Posted 1/5/11 12:43 pm EST by in Twitter Report


Huckleberry FinnA new, censored edition of Mark Twain's "Adventures of Huckleberry Finn" got classic literature fans speaking their minds on Twitter this week; that crowd includes Kurt Busiek, who stepped up to his account with a few suggestions for the book's publisher.

In Marvel's news, Axel Alonso and Tom Brevoort's editorial promotions got a lot of attention yesterday. Brevoort would prefer that everyone focus on his colleague, though, and said as much in a post. Joe Quesada, meanwhile, seems to be just as busy as ever. Find out why after the jump, along with who wants you to know that it's okay to crying during "The Iron Giant" and who's denying responsibility for all of those dead birds in Arkansas.

Joe Quesada Won't Confirm 'Hulk' TV Series, Says Marvel TV 'Has To Kick Major Ass'

Posted 11/29/10 4:31 pm EST by in Marvel, News


Joe QuesadaAlthough Guillermo Del Toro and David Eick have both confirmed their work on a new "Hulk" television project, the series isn't officially official yet — at least not according to Joe Quesada.

The Marvel Entertainment chief creative officer spoke with Comic Book Resources about the company's upcoming plans for Marvel TV. When asked about rumors of the new "Hulk" show and a possible "Cloak and Dagger" series on ABC Family, Quesada declined to comment on "anything that we haven't formally announced or on anything in the rumor mill."

That said, Quesada did have plenty of thoughts to share on the overall goals of Marvel TV, including the thought processes that go into deciding which Marvel characters are best suited for a television series. Read More...

Will Joe Quesada Get A Marvel Movie Cameo?

Posted 11/5/10 11:31 am EST by in Marvel, News


As Marvel Entertainment's chief creative officer and editor-in-chief of Marvel Comics, Joe Quesada has been at the forefront of the Marvel brand for the past ten years. But even as he occupies the leadership role for a new generation of Marvel readers, there are shoes out there that Quesada won't even attempt to fill — namely, the shoes belonging to Stan Lee.

Actively involved in the Marvel Studios film slate, Quesada still has yet to make a cameo appearance in "Iron Man" or any other number of Marvel movies — and according to the editor-in-chief, he wants that gig to remain Stan's.

"That's Stan Lee's gig," Quesada told MTV News at New York Comic Con. "That's Stan's thing. I don't think anybody wants to see me — they want to see Stan." Read More...

Joe Quesada Outlines Plans For 'Marvel Cinematic Universe' Comics With Movie Creators

Posted 11/1/10 1:01 pm EST by in Marvel, News


Marvel Studios have very carefully laid the groundwork for "The Avengers," sowing the seeds in past pictures like "Iron Man" and "The Incredible Hulk" and upcoming endeavors such as "Thor" and "Captain America." But while the Marvel movie universe has thrived on the big screen, further stories set within this continuity could unfold somewhere else: the comic book page.

"We're actually working on some interesting ways of marketing the Marvel cinematic universe — I guess the MCU, we could call it," Marvel Comics editor-in-chief Joe Quesada told MTV News at New York Comic Con. "We know the stories that we want to tell, and for the uninitiated, the MCU are going to be stories set within movie continuity." Read More...
