Description Finally took it out of the frame and was able to take a pic of it! Did this back in 2004 using craypas (crayon pastels) and felt paper. Was a bit difficult coz i couldnt draw outlines and prelim sketches but glad to have been able to nail the likeness down.

No modifications/fixes were made to the photo. Taken by N82 nokia camphone.

Thanks! True it was far from great (although the director's cut was pretty good) but i gotta disagree with you on it being the worst Superhero movie there man. For me, the worst Superhero movie made would be Spiderman 3.

The only thing i hate about DD is the cheesy corny playground scene. Spiderman3 had a lot more. The brokeback mountain on the goblinglider moment. The (supposedly dark and deadly) venomized emo parker acting like Jackblack on the streets. The dancing in the bar scene. Venom having no tongue and not have much screentime. Having too much characters making the whole movie a huge clusterf%@k.

Idk if these could be considered as superhero movies but if they would,these are a whole lot worse: Steel, Bloodrayne, Dragonball Z, and Legend of ChunLi

Man, all true. I couldn't agree with you more.
You're right! What a lame Venon on Spiderman 3, I was hoping for a full 3D big monster (like Hulk) and they gave us that sorry excuse for a (super)villain.

I guess DD was just my biggest disapointment... I love Frank Miller's Daredevil and was hoping for a much, much, MUCH better movie.

All the rest, I learned not to hope so much of big studios that waste a lot of money buying the license without, having anyone (writer, director or even actor) that loves the material (what they did to Dragonball... no words man, no words).

I wasnt much of a DD fan when the movie came out so i guess that kinda lessened my expectations. But eversince i got into the current DD books (from the Guardian devil arc where Karen Page was killed up to now), the movie should have had a much darker tone. Kinda like how Wolverine was... they should have went with the R rating and did the characters justice.

Dragonball was pure shit. I think id rather watch em old cheesy Fist of the North Star type movies than that crap.

Thank you so much! Wish the movie was a tad bit darker but i still prefer watching Daredevil and Elektra than the last Wolverine movie...

No problem.
Yeah,
I actually haven't watched that Wolverine Origins movie yet.
One, because I'm too poor and lazy to rent it.
And two, because for a while I hated Wolverine.
Mostly because whenever you see an X-men picture, Nightcrawler us usuly being halfway cut off from the picture by his thigh.
And plus I hate whatever those stupid fangirls like, soooo. XD
And plus his man hair creeps me out.

Haha... well, Wolverine aint that bad although even if im a huge wolvie fan, i hated how writers make him more than he is. He's a short guy with claws, accelerated healing and supersenses but they treat him like superman which is stupid. Im glad that they powered him down. But i guess his popularity still covers up most of the other characters. LOL.

But the Wolverine movie, you need not watch it. Its a total FAIL. Well, not as much as Twilight and Dragonball but still, Fail.

I agree with ya bro. DD especially the Direc Cut was good and to be honest, if it werent for the corny "fight in the playground scene" it would have been a perfect film adaptation for me! Waaaaaaaay better that the shitty Wolverine movie.

Well the only thing really known right now is the Director David Slade that did 30 days of night and Hard Candy is developing it. There is no guarantee that he will direct. It looks like it will be based on Frank Millers "Born Again" run in the comics. And they are saying it would kind of continue where Aflleck left off, but without affleck.

semaj007 In reply to hawkeye [2011-06-19 08:28:29 +0000 UTC]

If its heavily based on Born Again... damn! thats gonna be awesome as long as the screenwriter dont add anything stupid. I think Ben did a good job portraying Matt... and i think he would do even better now that all of his recent flicks are great and he has a better physique too. Hope they find someone as good if not better

hawkeye In reply to semaj007 [2011-06-20 23:43:05 +0000 UTC]

That is what I am hearing, that is the first DD comic I ever bought! I agree with the script. Ben was good, people gave him hard time, he was a good Matt Murdock. He actually played it very straight. Yeah me too, I hope they don't screw it up.

semaj007 In reply to hawkeye [2011-06-24 08:58:59 +0000 UTC]

If they nail it the way Miller depicted the world he made for DD, the same way Batman was done for Begins and Dark Knight, im sure its gonna be a killer! And instead of acrobatic moves, i wish... i really wish that the fight choreographers employ freerunners for building shots. I think it would make DD a bit superhuman but still be realistically grounded.

Wish some studio exec is reading what were saying right now. They can even motion capture the best free runners in the world and create daredevil digitally. That way, they can get the best angles and slowmos.... thats gonna be the bomb!
