I heard Leo DiCaprio admit to being a candidate for playing Spider-Man, but he said that with his newfound stardom after Titanic, he didn’t want to jump into another blockbuster film. Even heard he was asked to play Anakin Skywalker in Star Wars. Love these “what-if” scenarios. Dawg, that Michael Jackson bit was HILARIOUS. Arris had me cracking up at that.
Kinda. I actually thought the third Amazing Spider-Man film would have just had him up against the Sinister Six. Apparently it was going to be a lame clone wars movie
If a movie about Tobey Maguire's spiderman Thomas Jane's punisher and ben Affleck Daredevil crossover ever existed I probably would have melted the DVD 😂
In a 2010 interview with Feige they were talking about potential candidates for a solo film and Feige talked about making a Dazzler film but he canned it since the rights were at Fox at that time.
Originally a Black Widow flick was going to start the MCU before or after Ang Lee’s Hulk movie. The 1990s Turtle movie was originally deemed too dark and so 25 minutes of it was cut out, while a music composer and new director were brought in within 2 months of finishing. The extra footage still exists and the makers have been trying to get permission from the financiers to make an extended cut of the movie.
I love researching cancelled comic book movies. It's fun to see what could have been made. And to know how odd and insane these projects were intended to be
Everything but the Deadpool plot was great for me. All the Creed/Logan fight scenes, the weapon x scenes, my god the entire farmhouse scene 😭 And despite the atrocity that was that Deadpool, at least it brought the brothers close together again and fight side by side once more. I appreciated that storytelling-wise.
I thought I knew all these un-made gems but you mentioned a few that surprised me! Great Job as usual Variant! Been a fan for years, love the format :)
Ok. Here's the obligatory: Wow, haven't been this early since a single blast of the Omega Beams sent me back to when Vandal Savage was in loincloth Pull-ups.
Holy crap, I used to watch you all the time when I was like 8! You sparked my love for graphic novels and comics. It’s amazing to see how far the channel’s come!
what about Channing Tatum's role as Gambit. That movie would have been awesome! Also, if George Clooney's Batman & Robin was successful, supposed there was going to be fifth Batman movie with Howard Stern as Scarecrow. It would have returned Clooney, Chris O'Donnell as Robin, and Alicia Silverstone as Batgirl. Funny thing was that Jeff Goldblum was also up for the role that Howard Stern wanted. That would have been something if Goldblum or Howard Stern was Scarecrow.
Since marvel is making the live action Eternals movie in the MCU, do you think DC is going to make a live action DC New Gods movie in the DCEU? What do you think shall make it a success?
bro every time I get a notification from you guys I have to click it instantly, idk what it is but the content you put out always makes my day a little better. Keep up the amazing work.
Watching while typing. Marvel: Dang Spider-Man 4 5 6 that would be awesome to see. Black cat movie would be great to see.’lover her. Anorld as Doc Ock??? I would see him as the rhino or kervin the hunter. Dc: Wonder Woman I agree it’s a great dc movie. I also like Shazam. Jack Black as Hal jordon??! Wow that would be funny. The flash movie!!! I would to see it, I don’t like the jl movie flash. I really like the flash because he reminds me a lot like Spider-Man and his powers are great. Ryan Reynolds would be great as the flash. I think. Great video. Keep it up.
The funniest thing Ryan Reynolds ever said was during an SNL monologue. It was 10 years ago or so and he said “Who’s excited for Green Lantern?” and I laughed my ass off.
I would have rather seen one of the following actors in the Raimi films as I feel like they could have played the nerdy but component Peter and a sarcastic and quippy Spider-Man - Jake Gyllenhaal - Topher Grace - Joseph Gordon-Levitt - James Franco - Leonardo DiCaprio Spider-Man 1 and 2 are the best Spider-Man films however I don’t like how isolated they were (obviously there wasn’t an MCU) however I also don’t like how open the MCU is now especially Spider-Man, Spider-Man 1 and 2 has the best imagery like Tim Burton’s Batman films despite this Toby Maguire is my least favourite Peter Parker/Spider-Man actor as he’s just awkward and not quippy, Garfield wasn’t nerdy enough but played a component Parker and is the best Spider-Man despite being a bit of a Chad Tom Holland is my favourite overall actor for both roles however he needs to evolve and needs to become his own character I want a normal none tech suit
I don't like how Holland's Spider-man is completely tied to Iron Man. Although, where is Spider-Man going to get the resources to make a Spider-man suit that doesn't look like crap. Did that spider bite give him the power to sew real good?
It’s funny that both DJ Controna and Adam Brody of George Miller’s “Justice League: Mortal” cast became part of the Shazam family in the 2019 “Shazam” movie.
other than the Cameron Spider-Man movie, the rest sound like dodged bullets. With regards to the Jack Black GL movie the only reason i can think of as to why they would head with the comedy angle, would be for justifying the silly ring constructs. It would have been like The Mask minus the slapstick.
I always thought if they were to make a Spider-man movie in the 90s ,it would star Michael J. Fox as Peter Parker/Spider-Man, & Robin Williams as Uncle Ben, can you imagine the "With great power comes great responsibility" line coming from someone as wholesome as Williams would be a delight.
My top 10 cancelled superhero movies: 10. Peyton Reed's Fantastic Four (taking place in the 60s) 9. Green Arrow: Escape from Super Max 8. Joss Whedon's Wonder Woman starring Cobie Smulders 7. X-Men Origins:Magneto 6. Spiderman 4 5. James Cameron's Spiderman/X-Men 4. Darren Arenfosky's Batman Year One 3. Batman Beyond Live Action movie starring Clint Eastwood as Old Man Bruce Wayne 2. George Miller's Justice League 1. The Batman (1984) starring either Pierce Brosnan, Mel Gibson, Kurt Russell, even Bill Murray (weird choice) as Batman and David Bowie as the Joker. Honorable mentions: Wesley Snipes' Black Panther, Guillermo Del Toro's Doctor Strange, the Wachowski's Plastic Man, Joss Whedon's Iron Man, Sam Raimi's Thor, Wolfgang Petersen's Batman vs Superman, The Flash movie starring Ryan Reynolds
The magical blood thing could have been a tie in to the J. Michael Straczynski run with the whole spider totem stuff and the mystical side which would have been divisive but cool at the same time
I want Jack Black as Hal Jordan!!! Now that I’ve heard about it, i need it. Even just like a 30-45 minute short story or something. I’d love to see what kind of things Jables could think of
Couple more: -Batman Beyond -Batman vs. Superman -Iron Man with Tom Cruise -Batman: Arkham (animated) -Ben Affleck’s The Batman -Green Lantern Corps -Iron Man 4 -X-23 -Kitty Pryde -Gambit -Cyborg -Batman: Triumphant -Sinister Six -Aunt May (yes really) -X-Force -Fantastic Four 3 -Civil War (Fox) -Daredevil 2 (With Affleck) -Daredevil (Hard R reboot) & -Silver Surfer
@@bluecrusaderfilms I blame Ramie. What kind of idiot tries to make three Spider-Man movies and leave out his most iconic villain and also one of the MOST POPULAR ANTI-HEROES. The dude was an idiot that probably didn't give a shit about Spider-Man in the first place. No way would a true fan not want to include Venom.
I'm not ashamed that the thing that sticks with me from this video is seeing the art for the current Batman arc. I'm genuinely upset right now because they can't just let Bruce and Selina be happy together after decades of all the back and forth, fights on rooftops, conspiracy solving team-ups, will they-won't they, mistletoe can be deadly if you eat it, but a kiss can be even deadlier if you mean it , close-call guano! They've earned their ever after, and we would all enjoy seeing how that manifests, damnit!
Jack Black as Green Lantern, Michael Jackson and Leonardo DiCaprio as Spider-Man, that would have been some crazy movies LOL!!! I wonder who would have been that 2006 wonder woman
I heard Leo DiCaprio admit to being a candidate for playing Spider-Man, but he said that with his newfound stardom after Titanic, he didn’t want to jump into another blockbuster film. Even heard he was asked to play Anakin Skywalker in Star Wars. Love these “what-if” scenarios. Dawg, that Michael Jackson bit was HILARIOUS. Arris had me cracking up at that.
Man I’m glade this got reposted because it’s just been not a good day but this cheered me thank you guys keep up the good work.
I can't imagine Arnold saying Octavius lines from Spider-Man 2.
*The powa of tha sun in the polm of my haand AAAAGGHH.*
Basically everything just came back to Spider-Man lmao
The first half. The second was mostly DC.
Kinda. I actually thought the third Amazing Spider-Man film would have just had him up against the Sinister Six. Apparently it was going to be a lame clone wars movie
Alvin Kibet: Spider-man is money.
@@Shel1221 Sadly too true. Look at how his worth almost got him kicked out of the MCU.
The whole Michael Jackson as Spider-man bit had dying from laughter
I can see him as spider punk
@@johnlawful2272 hmmmmmm...🤔
Isn't he a known pedophile?
Me too, Patel, Me Too!😂🤣🤣😂😂😂🤣😂😂😂🤣😂😂😂🤣😂😂🤣😂😂😂🤣😂
That would have been so amazing imagine Spider-Man web slinging saying hee hee and moonwalking on walls I would love to see that.
Those Michael Jackson moves you were doing as Spider-Man 😭😂
I’ve been so funny you’re freaky at the same time
Arris Quinones: Michael Jackson attempted to buy marvel so he could play spiderman in a live action movie
Me: Is that a real sentence
Heee-Heeee
I refuse to believe!
He's not just bad. He's your friendly neighborhood spider-man. Shamone.
You know who he was also going to play before someone else
Jar Jar Binks
@@magicmariotv7772 that sounds much worse
I love Michael Jackson but I can’t imagine him as Spider-Man 😂😂
He would have been too old to play Spider-Man anyway. Spider-Man is usually either depicted as a teenager or as a guy in his early 20s
J Hansen true
Carnage perhaps?
@@jhansen4661 young mj could have been spider punk
In an alternate universe he did play Spider-Man
If Michael Jackson ended up playing Spidey, I wonder who the definitive “MJ” in that film franchise would’ve been, him or Mary-Jane 😆
Idea: Superhero animation that almost happened. Basically I want to see the spectacular spiderman series get mentioned
I wish Captain Planet,Gargoyles,Freakazoid(Dexter Douglas), Danny Phantom and Generator Rex had Movies!
A live action generator rex movie would be awesome.
Gargoyles would be dope
A Captain Planet movie has been in talks for years, it's dead in the water now though
Ben 10 had a live action special..
@@goofybutserious4807 had 2 I believe
I noticed you skipped the scene where you accidentally called gwen black cat
I think Quentin Tarantino wanted to make a Luke Movie back int the day with Wesley Snipes before Blade was made.
He also was in talks to do a rated R Iron man
He actually wanted Laurence fishburne
Luke who? I know Luke Skywalker, Luke Duke, and Luke Cage. I assume you mean Cage.
In an alternative universe, we would of gotten a Arnold doc ock and the spider king of pop going
HE HEEEEEE while swinging through new york...
Something that really shocks me is the Warner Bros and DC hasn't done more with Batman Beyond in terms of games, movies and tv.
Good for fixing the Felicia Hardy/Gwen Stacy mistake 👏
I think there’s a Batman Beyond movie coming out!
We can only hope
Their is a leak Producer said their is going to The Michael Keaton is it
No way Jose. Your joking right. If you are i swear I’m gonna cry
Yeah, heard/read Keaton is supposed to be old Bruce Wayne in the Batman beyond movie 👀 we can only hope
Not one, but a couple of movies with Keaton in it!
Why is Blade constantly being overlooked as far as starting the comic book movie genre? Since his movie came out in 98 and Spiderman came out in 02
It isnt as influential as spiderman maybe 😅
Ya know, in the 90’s there was supposed to be a LUKE CAGE movie that Quentin Tarantino almost would’ve made. It’s a shame it never happened tbh
Remember in the dark knight rises when Batman financially became spider-man
OMG!...The BEST Michael Jackson Spider-Man impersonation ever!...lmao
Sick!!!! I want a Cloak of Levitation and the Eye of Agimoto!!!!!
If a movie about Tobey Maguire's spiderman Thomas Jane's punisher and ben Affleck Daredevil crossover ever existed I probably would have melted the DVD 😂
I- I'm torn. I loved Tobey's movies, but the other two would have ruined the movie for me.
TOBEY SUCKED
JERMAINE ROBINSON HE DiD NOT!!!
@@jcrobinson37 he was the best spiderman
@@jcrobinson37 he is the best Peter parker and the only issue with his spiderman is he didn't crack enough jokes
Dark Phoenix two-parter with the Hellfire Club and Shi’ar.
There was a live action Fantastic 4 movie that wasn't released in the 90s. I met them at a comic show in NYC. I have a signed promo of them.
As much as I love big Arnie, he can't play tragic villains
Saw this when it first came out
Lucky.
Private it told me
Same
Michael Jackson buying Mavel so he can play Spider-Man imagining him moon walking on buildings and shooting webs, shouting out eeeehhaaaa dwl🤣🤣😂😂😂😂

In the end, Nick Cage finally got to play Superman in Teen Titan Goes To The Movies.
How could you forget about the 3rd Burton Batman movie where Marlon Wayans was set to play Robin
I don’t know why, but I would like to see the Black Cat/Silver Sable movie.
Are they still even going to make the movie
@@ghostwarrior3878 supposedly they're getting separate movies
Why the reupload?
I love researching cancelled comic book movies. It's fun to see what could have been made. And to know how odd and insane these projects were intended to be
I loved Xmen origins Wolverine. Me and my nephew used to watch it all the time. It was one of the things we bonded over.

Philip Banks Best part was the opening! IMO the rest was unwatchable 😗 Deadpool went back n set that and Green Lantern right though lol.
Agreed. I really liked that movie.
I enjoy it but I hate the Deadpool shit lmaoo
Because it really was a great movie
It's weird how that James Cameron Spidey fan poster foreshadows Dane Dehaan's meth scented arrival. :P
Leo does look like ultimate spiderman
I thought I knew all these un-made gems but you mentioned a few that surprised me! Great Job as usual Variant! Been a fan for years, love the format :)
That MIchael Jackson impression caught me out of guard AHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA

That was just hilarious 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Did he just say Magneto grew up to be Charles Xavier? 3:33
I would love to See a Spiderman Noir TV Show in the Future
Your impression of Michael Jackson as SpiderMan almost killed me I couldn't stop laughing
Once upon a time The Phantom was supposed to be a trilogy that was supposed to move forward in time having the third part be phantom 2030
Take a shot of water when you hear creative differences and your will be drunk at the end of the video.
That 2nd Doctor Strange is gonna be crazy, cause Marvel is tapping into The Multiverses now its gonna be dope.
The Spider-Michael impression totally worth a like😂
Why was the original upload private
When are you going to do history of the Flash villain Mirror Master since the second half of season 6 of the Flash has finished?
Ok. Here's the obligatory:
Wow, haven't been this early since
